Starting tomorrow—November 1st—I’m declaring it “No Trump November” on my Facebook page. I need a break from the daily circus, so I don’t plan to mention him at all during the month. I’m cutting myself off cold turkey. No posts, no comments, no rants. Please don’t tempt me with articles, videos, or breaking news.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Robert: That’s fine; I won’t post a link to this post on your FB page, the way I normally would.

I would point out, though, that in a way this plays into Trump’s hands. The work of fine and intelligent people like you impedes his ability to inflict damage on our formerly great country.

Regarding learning from nature, this is called biomimicry. (Linked above are 15 posts on the subject.)

I hope readers will check out this report on cratering ticket sales at the Kennedy Center.

This comes as no surprise given that the Kennedy Center hosts things like theater, classical music, dance and opera. It’s understandable that people of sophistication and intelligence want nothing to do with Donald Trump.

Some folks believe that Congress will not re-open until after the midterms, when, the GOP hopes, it was enough votes to prevent the Epstein files from being released.
