@BarclaysUKHelp Do you have an international phone number that's free to call from an American mobile phone? The online banking chat hasn't been working. I have a Barclays UK account but I live in the States; the card expires next month, and I need a replacement.

Visited @NixonLibrary this past weekend and learned of Nixon's graceful defeat.

[The Free Press @TheFP]

Grace in defeat is important for democracy. Both presidential candidates must be prepared to accept America’s choice next week.

They should look to Richard Nixon as an unlikely role model.

.@Eminem: I don't think anyone wants an America where people are worried about retribution of what people will do if you make your opinion known. I think Vice President Harris supports a future for this country where these freedoms and many others will be protected and upheld

#FairyTaleTuesday
There are numerous legends tell of human beings who transform into the shape of a cat. Although some male wizards, magicians and shamans were gifted with this power, more commonly the shapeshifter was a woman, and a witch.

Cats (along with bats, owls and toads) were believed to be witches' companions who aided in spells and carried messages to the Devil. During the tragically widespread witch trials of 16th and 17th century Europe, feline "familiars" were burned, hung, and drowned alongside their mistresses.

A witch, it was said, could shape-shift into cat form whenever the moon was full. Good men were advised to lay consecrated salt on their doorstep, lest witches compel them to join in their revels.

[Titania @TitaniasRealm]

According to Norse mythology, the Valkyries were able to shapeshift into ravens. In Völsunga saga a 'wish maiden', a term sometimes used to describe the Valkyries, assumes the form of a raven and gains the ability to fly.
