Hello, Friends. How are you? Did you have a good week? We have been tackling lots of renovation tasks and learning new skills, like brick laying and making limewash paint. It feels good to learn new things.
We don’t have big plans this week — possibly a day trip to Le Mans, or maybe a visit to the reclaimed building materials yard. How about you?
Ready for your weekend link list? Here are a few things I’ve been wanting to share:
-Great news! “Pregnant and breastfeeding women have a robust responses to the Pfizer & Moderna COVID vaccines and pass the immunity on to their babies.”
–Just 12 anti-vaxxers are responsible for almost 2/3rds of anti-vaccine content circulating on social media platforms. (They must be de-platformed!!)
–An essay about King Arthur stories that I enjoyed.
–How to Collect $ 1.4 Trillion in Unpaid Taxes.
–Being snobby about romance novels.
-The only plank of the GOP platform that all factions agree on is making voting more difficult.
–The Secret Life of the White House. This is about the residence staff.
-Apryl Stott, the illustrator who created our birth announcements, has a best-selling children’s book — it has 300+ five-star reviews! It’s about kindness and it’s so good.
Here are some tweets I saved for you:
–I want answers too. The price of insulin in the U.S. is ten times more expensive than other countries.
-If Stacey Abrams says it’s cowardice, I believe her.
-There is nothing special about that number.
-It’s a good question.
-Our priorities are so weird.
-When are we allowed to talk about gun control?
–Now go look at 2019 coverage.
–You’re not doing a damn thing to protect them or us anyway.
-Remember what minimum wage was supposed to do?
–Money absolutely does buy happiness.
-The comments and retweets on this are pure delight.
I hope you have such a good weekend. I’ll meet you back here on Monday. I miss you already.
kisses,
Gabrielle
