All finished! 🧶 🪶 #crossstitch

Pattern: Au Fil des Nichoirs by Jardin Privé (designed by Nathalie Cichon)
Stitched in DMC threads on 16ct natural aida

A scene with 12 bird houses representing the months of the year. The bird houses are mounted on a white picket fence. Plants and flowers grow at the base of the fence showing the changing seasons. Various birds are perched around the scene. There are butterflies and bees flying around, clouds and a bright sun above, and other little details throughout. It is a busy, cheerful scene.

Remember, decent people like us were traumatized seeing infants and children in cages forced to appear in court alone while separated from their parents.

America voted for a second, more violent and inhumane term.

America voted for this.

Stop pretending ICE just happened out of thin air.

Finally realized what the freakout over Mamdani becoming mayor reminded me of, and it's the freakout over the first black mayors in southern cities.

New post at CAMPAIGN TRAILS:

"Too Young to Die"

As the seemingly endless NYC mayoral campaign enters its final weeks, the howls of the Democratic establishment in the city are only getting louder. They've really convinced themselves that the elect...

The human mind is not equipped to deal with the constant onslaught of realizing that there are far more ignorant, genuinely sponge-dumb people in the world than you ever thought possible.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

Also lying:

“I … met with the governor, met with the mayor, met with the chief of police, and the superintendent of the highway patrol. They’re all lying, and disingenuous, and dishonest people,” Noem said, because they wouldn’t back up her baseless claims that the streets were overrun with terrorists.

ICE Barbie Says an Entire State’s Worth of Officials Are “Lying”

I really enjoy finding a badger sett in the woods and love the idea that there might be a family there below the ground, asleep beneath my feet.

This is a photograph of a black and white linocut which features a badger surrounded by a wreath of foliage and little mushrooms. The print is mounted and lies on a rustic wooden table with some flowers and berries.

What if we gave teachers $50k signing bonuses, $100k salaries, and $60k in student loan forgiveness. You know, the same as ICE agents get.

bari weiss has an audience of at most 500,000 that largely consists of rich elites with reactionary opinions

putting that kind of person in charge of a mass media company that serves millions would be considered a bad business decision in any context

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.
