The most dangerous form of government is theocracy.

Because the only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they're on a mission from God.

There is no leader of Antifa.
There is no girlfriend of the leader of Antifa.

They are creating imaginary people so they can justify going after real people.

A person with 15y of LE experience has to be old enough to know how to determine whether a diagnostic imaging office is doing that or is a front for weed cultivation.

Do LEO get regular assessments to monitor cognitive functioning?

Learned today that a friend from college is shifting from maintenance to hospice care following a 3y battle with cervical, then ovarian cancer. Mother of 5. Age 40. Truly heartbreaking news.
She is light and joy and art. #fuckcancer #rivermama

I haven’t watched it, but ….Ed Gein was NOT sexy. And what’s the point of portraying him that way?

Jesus spent most of his time healing the sick.

Today, we have politicians in Congress with “Christ-follower” in their Twitter bios — but they’re trying to kick the sick off their healthcare.

And they’re willing to shut down the government to do it.

Sometimes it feels like everything in the world is sliding backward, and it gets overwhelming.

And then I think about the art community—the people making and sharing work, supporting each other, keeping creativity alive. I’m just really grateful to be here with all of you.

“It actually doesn't take much to be considered a difficult woman. That's why there are so many of us.”

Jane Goodall has left us & is beyond deserving of lowering flags to half-mast.
