I love it for Ramaswamy that he has tanked his entire political career and made Amy Acton a classic study in courage with one, single ad drop.

A visiting Japanese school girl asked me to define "price" to her, which I did. She next wanted me to explain "worth" so I included family heirlooms and cherished mementos as examples. Finally she asked me why priceless and worthless are diametrically opposed. What would you say?

It is with considerable regret that I must inform my loyal followers that the Treato Cabinet has been temporarily CLOSED due to persistent misuse. Apparently, visiting it 47 times before teatime, helping myself to the contents and then reporting it empty constitutes “misuse”.

Good morning welcome to Tippetty tap tap Thursday I’ve never understood why some people think kindness is a weakness. From where I sit, i see that it takes a rather wonderful sort of strength to remain gentle in a world that isn’t always gentle in return Be kind 🧡
