Have any of you ever been grateful that you unfollowed someone’s blog? I am.

Sometimes I see some people that I used to follow, and think, how happy I am that they showed who they are. Especially, when they take a post of mine, don’t tag me in it and use my post to be a bigot.

Never Ever do that, by the way.

If you want to use my post to expose your bigotry’s, at LEAST have the decency to tag me in it. I am still shocked by the blogger who did that by the way. At first I thought they were supporting trans people … Nope … By the way, if you want to use my post to support trans people, go for it. You don’t have to tag me, IF you support trans people. You do, if you want to be a bigot towards anyone.

Honestly…

Thursday Theories – Dinosaurs vs Humans

Lolsys Library

Climate Change is a … HOT … topic! See what I did there.

Anyways, I saw something recently from a “I.T. Specialist” who said that it was

it is absurd and arrogant to think that we, humans, are a threat to the planet AND that we can modify the weather. If we try to accomplish this we will only ensure our extinction.”

Well…I gave him a few actual facts, and I quote myself here…

“It’s absurd and arrogant to think that human beings play no part in changing the climate. While our ancestors have been around for about six million years, the modern form of humans only evolved about 200,000 years ago. Civilization as we know it is only about 6,000 years old, and industrialization started in the earnest only in the 1800s. Dinosaurs went extinct about 65 million years ago (at the end of the Cretaceous Period), after…

Thoughtful Thursdays, Stayed on Freedom’s Call page 37, and Tours as Bridges in DC

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

     It is crucial that the tours we take, and the bridges we build, like the Duke Ellington Bridge, in DC, help our society to become more fully inclusive for all of us today, and to come and work together, for all of us. 

     I still believe that attention to shared histories through walking (and singing!) tours may provide part of an answer.  I started a note about that based on my own walking singing tour company, a few years ago, in my book Stayed on Freedom’s Call:

 

” … an academic author and lover of history, it was clear that this forgotten cooperation was a story that needed to be told in as many ways as possible, for the sake of both communities, and for the city at large.  Many tours exist which view the history of one community or another in isolation from other communities…

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

” Nem sempre sou igual no que digo e escrevo.

Mudo, mas não mudo muito.

A cor das flores não é a mesma ao sol

De quando uma nuvem passa

Ou quando entra a noite

E as flores são cor da sombra

E as flores são cor da sombra.

Mas quem olhar bem vê que são as mesmas flores.

Por isso quando pareço não concordar comigo,

Reparem bem pra mim:

Se estavam virando para a direita,

Voltei-me agora para a direita,

Voltei-me agora para a esquerda,

Mas sou sempre eu, assente sobre os mesmos pés-

O mesmo sempre, graças ao céu e a terra

E aos meus olhos e ouvidos atentos

E à minha clara simplicidade de alma…

Garlic Roasted Thyme Tomatoes

snapshotsincursive

What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? The Food Whisperer: Garlic Roasted Thyme Tomatoes! Turn ordinary tomatoes into a savory side dish with earthy vigor. Have you experienced roasted garlic lately? Don’t hate me if I describe it as smooth and sweet as a dab of butter. Having said that, I can tell by the look in your eye, you’re gonna roast more garlic cloves than I pictured here. Go for it. By quick-roasting vegetables on high heat in the oven, you’ll notice a natural hint of smokiness that satisfies the palate. Although they turn from shiny smooth to a dull luster when finished, the taste is what will win you over. I promise you this, here’s a down-home recipe that will not disappoint.

GARLIC ROASTED THYME TOMATOES

Ingredients:

6 medium tomatoes

6 cloves garlic, peeled

5 sprigs fresh thyme

1/2 cup olive oil

Kosher salt

Cracked black pepper

Instructions:

Preheat oven…
