Little old cat lady in Virginia, daughter of a WW2 vet. Can't believe we've betrayed Ukraine. Currently embarrassed to be American.

Late October morning in Kyiv. We were under attack last night. Once again (I’ve lost count), ‘my’ bridge was hit. It’s closed to cars and metro trains. I’m making a warcoffee. Electricity is back. Just for a few hours. So, life has its treats, for sure.

I had leftover beast stew for dinner. 😋 Now I want sugar and I'm torn between Pop-Tarts or Oreo cookies. Life is full of tough decisions. 😃 #TimsDessertDilemma

Kyiv is under ballistic missile attack. Unscheduled power cut. A new EcoFlow (portable power station) was delivered a few minutes ago as the previous one was saying goodbye. Life.

Walter was more than Chekov. He was a writer, a teacher, a thoughtful man, and a loyal friend. To the fans who loved him for so many years, thank you. He loved you too. Rest well, my dear friend. Keep navigating a steady course. – George

Happy Monday, everybody! This week, have you considered voting early (if you can) and voting in person (if you can)? It's fun! Try it if you can!

Christian nationalism doesn't need to become a full-blown theocracy to be dangerous. When government promotes Christianity in schools and uses religious beliefs to restrict our rights, the threat is already here. We must fight back before it becomes the norm.

Hemant Mehta@friendlyatheist.com

An essay in Christianity Today says concerns about Christian Nationalism are exaggerated. But even that defense points to support for teacher-led prayers, Ten Commandments displays in schools, and Christian “moral values.” Those are real threats! www.friendlyatheist.com/p/a-sociolog...

From Zelenskyy. Patriot interceptors that could save innocent lives are sitting in European countries for weeks, which they paid for, unable to be transferred to Ukraine because Hegseth refuses to sign off.

Today I took warm socks out of the drawer. The woollen ones the Lady with Golden Hands knitted in the last years of her life. Every time I pass the place where she used to sell them, I sigh. Her smile... It's getting colder in Kyiv.

An American student with a disability is suffering from a broken wrist and a black eye after ICE wrongfully tackled and detained him in Santa Maria. Americans didn’t ask to be brutalized by ICE. They sure as hell shouldn’t be paying for its actions with broken limbs.

A stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, whose government cultivated close ties with Donald Trump and his family, has conceded defeat to a student-led opposition movement in a historic parliamentary election.
