A few days ago I harvested greens from our garden. Didnt see chrysalis attached2one of the stalks. Mrs Kenny discovered it&put chrysalis in jar&prayed butterfly would emerge. Monarch emerged today healthy! Took it outside; itâs on plant letting wings dry. Hopefully2fly away soon!
When butterfly hatches, wings are soft&weak. It needs2hang vertically so wings can take shape&firm up. After about 2 hrs, wings have dropped completely&are fully formed, ready for 1st flight. So, this guy should be ready2fly in about an hour. Hope Iâm there to see it take off!đ¤đž

1/Hillary Cinton was magnificent on #AMJoy today. Hereâs a thread of great things she said: âBasically, he (trump) signaled heâs going after Social Security&Medicare. I donât know if he understood that. You never know what he knows&doesnât know about how government operates.â

I learned TODAY that a MILLION black men who fought in World War II w/Drew Breesâ grandfathers were DENIED the GI Bill benefits they EARNED because they were black. As a military vet Iâm EMBARRASSED I didnât know that. It makes me want to scream. history.com/.amp/news/gi-bâŚ
2/Our blood was just as red as the white boysâ; courage just as strong as the white boysâ; patriotism just as deep as the white boysâ; sacrifices just as selfless as the white boysâ. But when we came home from WWII,a country that didnt love us robbed us of earned GI Bill benefits

2/Bryan Stevenson: âItâs almost as if the burden is on a person of color to prove that their victimization is legitimate...that they donât deserve what they got...that they havenât done something wrong.â #JusticeForAhmaudArbery

1/ Reza Aslan accurately described white Evangelical trumpers as a racist âdoomsday cultâ on #AMJoy today. Thread of quotes: âSome 81% of white Evangelicals voted for donald trump. Thatâs more white Evangelicals than voted for George W. Bush,who was actually a white Evangelical.â
2/ Reza Aslan: â67% of Evangelicals of color voted for Hillary Clinton. These are ppl who more or less believe the same things&hold the same theology, but just have a different skin tone. I donât think we should pretend that the white part of the sentence doesnât matter.â #AMJoy
