Robin decides a tire was a great spot for a nest...

“Nothing is more central to the ruse of Trumpism than making his followers believe he is somehow virile, and in command, on the world stage. He is not. He is a bumbling, almost-octogenarian drug addict who was so unmanageable in his reality TV show days (in which I worked with his family) that his call times were always late afternoon - and even then, he cancelled much of the time. Trump simply was not functional - or all that interested in working; a trait he shares with his children. They showed up on the ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ finale tapings as if they were some sort of royal family descending from their penthouse perches to mingle with the commoners for a few hours. Don Jr. was a notoriously bad drunk who was semi-dry for a while, before slipping in to the obviously coked-out years of his father’s two presidential terms. Working has never really entered his mind. Junior has fleeced the MAGA faithful for years, along with his old man - before now focusing his greedy, beady eyes on the American taxpayer and no-bid Pentagon contracts. We learned this week that the White House, courtesy of Peter Navarro, intervened on behalf of a $620 million Pentagon loan to a mining company, Vulcan Elements, that Don Jr.’s venture capital firm, 1789 Capital, took a stake in just three months earlier. Besides the fast-tracked loan, the company also received $50 million in Commerce Department incentives. Don Jr.’s firm’s assets under management has grown from $200 million to $3.5 billion in a year. He refers to this success as ‘Patriotic Capitalism’, but most folks would call it what it is, corruption and graft in plain sight. The staggering AUM adds to the long list of handouts and kickbacks he and his brother Eric have amassed in recent months by helping themselves to U.S. Defense Department contracts, and trading on their father’s presidency for private, for-profit Trump Organization development deals across the world. Lest we forget, much of their old man’s last campaign was based around Hunter Biden’s laptop and the fact he had sold a few oil paintings. Basically, the difference between panhandling outside on the sidewalk or walking in and robbing the bank. The MAGA faithful bought the ‘Biden Crime Family’ BS lock, stock and barrel because they were told to - by the culture that reinforces the Trump clan’s grifting and by the sleight-of-hand Donald employs with his constant demonization of Democrats and his endless dancing in front of flags.”open.substack.com/pub/noelcasler…

I think the world would be such a better place if people reacted to seeing someone else struggling with something they can’t understand as evidence of their own fortune not of that person‘s failure.

Woodpigeon in daisies. 😍 Taken recently through my cat flap.. 😁🐦

Au début, c'était un petit doudou tout mignon qui tenait dans ma patte. Maintenant, c'est un kinésithérapeute de 80 kg avec des cornes qui me décape le crâne à coup de langue. Je n'ai plus aucun espace personnel, mais bon... je l'aime.

These two! Always looking for attention. Or more recently, footwear to eat 😄

My Clematis, is still blooming beautifully 🩷🍃🌸 May 27th 2026🍃🌺 mine 📷

Pretty sunrise a few days ago. I have to tell you, my favorite time of day is the hour before the sun comes up. There is just something magical about the window when the natural world is waking up to the new day, but the human world is still asleep.

Tis windy out there now! Amber has discovered a fascination with shoes so who am I to stop her burgeoning interest despite her inability to wear them 🤪

Good morning, world. Here's one for Throwback Thursday. This is by far my favorite and most memorable moose encounter in Colorado.

Thrilled to see an elusive Bittern standing on the top of some reeds at the weekend! 😀😍 First time I've seen this!🐦
