I’ve been struggling to diligently create my karma.

Eat your heart out Martha!

A broken down old wooden bar chair holds rocks, a pinecone, an abalone shell, and a birdhouse topped with impatience. Below are too nice Huercheras. The one directly underneath the chair is called Forever Red, and the one to the left has a soft gray tone. (I forgot the name of it.)

Behind the chair is an aged wooden fence. The sun is shining through onto the red Huerchera.

Also underneath the chair, between the two Huercheras is rusty old warthog sculpture, looking straight at us.

A blue, gray and white Scrub Jay sit in a field of fallen Pine needles, looking up & to the left at ceramic heads on a twisted frame. The artwork is falling to pieces which pretty much changes the intended content.

People are accustomed to hearing the accusation of RAPE. It’s lost its meaning. I think TORTURE is the accurate word for what they did to children. THEY TORTURED CHILDREN!

MoC can shape the media narrative by drafting articles of impeachment and talking publicly about how POTUS’ speech Tuesday furnished proof of the *intent* behind his military occupation of cities; he’s waging war on the United States in violation of the Treason Clause.

One of the questions: Will the media step up and report as such? Yes, the conservative media owns the modes of mass comms. But ostensibly, large mainstream outlets who purport to speak truth to power etc have leaders who are watching things unfold and understand the stakes. Will they be as honest?

Pretty clear Stephen Miller, Noem, Hegseth and Trump are trying to provoke a Civil War at this point. What's interesting is they want to do it now, because even though they're unpopular, they seem to believe this is the most popular they'll be ever again. We can't let them win.

Oh, how 10 year old me loved The Galloping Gourmet! I still use his method for perfect hard boiled eggs. (Eggs in pot, cover w/water, lid on lid askew, gentle boil, heat off, close lid, wait 20 minutes, (this is a good time to quaff wine), quench, and voilà, always stunningly bright yellow yolks!)

I made the mistake of naming a dog Bos’n, thinking it would be simpler than Boatswain. It didn’t take long for me to just tell folks her name was Bō.

Everyone should listen to Chris Murphy's extraordinary warning about Trump on our pod. First, he says the logic must be that the more lawless he gets, the stiffer the resistance.

He knows it. They know it. They've always known it. Amongst themselves, they joke about it. They tell stories about it. They swap advice on how to deal with it.

But most importantly, to everyone else, they lie about it.

To me, the chilling-est part was when he told them they could leave the room, but that they would essentially lose their careers if they did. It was his only laugh line. Such a fucking, stupid thug.
