Just a unique and epic, the photo pen-and-ink sketch of that historical wooden house. Adoring it a lot! ✨️

The charming and graceful film β€” The royal's message on an imaginative journey across land, sea and sky, carried from creature to creature before finally reaching its intended recipient, Sir David Attenborough.

Thanks kindly for sharing this, Alex, and good morning! 🀍

Wishing you, 'a blessed weekend' with your beloved ones, surely included Luna too. πŸˆβ€β¬›πŸ«‚πŸ₯°

WHaT???!!! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—If I share nothing else today I must say that both the poster and the news that the Hungarian people have voted to create a new government have brought GREAT joy to me!!! The poster Alexander is brilliant!! ~ stunningly BEAUTIFUL!

To wake up and find this news brings SUCH hope to me as an American! In our β€œ muck” of β€œ What is happening in our country, this reality for Hungary brings a ray of sunshine today. As a sophomore in high school I spent a few days in Hungary. I was with a group of young people from the United States. I remember that we were β€œ chaperoned?” by a few Hungarian youth who were , we were told, members of a β€œ Communist youth group. We were also told that there was a possibility that our hotel rooms were bugged and to be careful about what we said. Who knows if that was true. As an adult I am aware of the atrocities of Orban, always disgusted that Trump thought Orban was a worthy β€œ friend.” I am overjoyed to see history change for this country! Every time a dictatorship falls , the world is given β€œHope!” I am about to head out on a sunny morning to watch my favorite neighbor run in one of his last High school track meets …… I go out with much joy and much hope! πŸŒπŸ˜„πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ€—πŸŒŽThanks Alexander! Enjoy your SaturdayπŸ€—πŸͺ»!

Hungary is immensely inspirational for Americans who hope to follow their lead in booting out illiberal democracy. In America, the will of the people is trampled by the high courts. Where do we go from here?

So much covered in this Morning Compass, much of it deeply disturbing. The behavior of Trump in his crass, boorish treatment of journalists, usually women, is reprehensible.

The best news following Hungary is the video of King Charles’ greeting to Sir David and the one year anniversary of Pope Leo becoming Pope. The juxtaposition of him on his first day as Pope and Trump being the despicable human he is, iis proof Pope Leo wins again.

The wooden houses standing staunchly in Oslo is beautiful and also inspirational.

Thank you for an excellent Morning Compass.

Love the pen-and-ink of charming Oslo architectural history and the relevant, important reminder of Doctor Without Borders.

I forwarded a video of the crowd at the Royal Albert Hall singing Happy Birthday to Sir David, it was so sweet, he’s somebody worth celebrating ! πŸ’•

I thank you for your comments on the UK elections, i cant understand how they could be so short sighted. Ugh.. Farage! I’m in shock. Being an old lefty from England I hardly recognize the US these days, I live in California and very much enjoy your writing. πŸ₯°

I almost missed the King Charles video to David Attenborough for his 100th birthday. It was lovely. No disrespect to Queen Elizabeth, but it is kind of sad it took so long for Charles to be able to make his ascent and share his views.
