An eventful day at the home office so far... just spent the last 20 minutes trying to clean up the mess of pushing bag of besan (chick pea) flour off the top shelf in the pantry, which burst on impact, maximising dispersion on the coffee making stuff & the rest of the pantry. Much blue air was created. But before that had a magical few minutes when a pīwakawaka flew into the house, happily flew around a bit, & happily flew back out again.

I've argued with my flat mate about whether or not Disney's Mulan from 1998 (the animated version) is a feminist film. I know that when I first watched it in theatres, it felt incredibly empowering and on my last rewatch a few years ago, I still feel the same way. More on that below if you are interested.
What are some feminist films that you enjoy and what do you enjoy about them?

Daughter dropped the grand-dog off for his 8 day stay while she's away. But now I'm feeling a touch guilty because we're getting ready to go out to lunch - without him!

Aarde is afgelopen tien jaar sneller opgewarmd dan gedacht | de Volkskrant
Wist u dat al? Nou de meesten van u wel
Doet u er iets aan? Nou de meesten van u doen hun best
Helpt dat? Nou, een heel klein beetje
Is dat genoeg? Nee, absoluut niet, wil het helpen dan moet de hele maatschappij flink worden opgeschud
Gaat dat gebeuren? O zeker, goed- of kwaadschiks, evolutie, revolutie, ineenstorting, ik weet niet wat het uiteindelijk gaat worden, maar het gaat iets worden, …

I have the impression that Trump or people around him, don't want a deal. Because saying "A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.", is not a good opening statement for talks... It only reinforces the feeling for Iran they are in an existential fight where no deals are possible. I also think Israel really wants to destroy Iran as much as possible so they clearly don't want a "deal".

The operation was high risk,
with U.S. C-130s and rescue helicopters flying low and slow over Iran’s mountainous terrain to locate the missing airman.
As the search was ongoing, Iranian television broadcast a statement offering a rew…
