Watercolor of Mt. No where. I finally did a mountain range. Used white gouache paint for the snow. Is that a thing? Clueless how to do that. Looks kinda crazy. 😆 #Watercolor #gouache

Again tried to do watercolor alone but failed. Also, it morphed from a mountain range with a path to this tree plus friend 😅. #watercolor #watercolorpencil #landscape #art

There's nothing I don't love about WOMBATS, from their curmudgeonly mannerisms to their armored, bony butts (that protect them from predators when they're head-first in a burrow).

But we should talk about their cubic poop & how it gets that way.

Vicious authoritarianism built on a pretext of shameless lies under the cover of scolding Christianity.

No one is covering the GOP's scheme to rig congressional maps for 2026 as closely as Democracy Docket. It is providing gavel to gavel coverage of the ongoing hearing over whether the Texas gerrymander will be in place for the midterms.

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa
