Never missed a vote and always voted blue. 💙 I am a blue dot in a red state. X is dead to me…Rescuer of animals. Creative, interior designer. It’s been a tough life, but I always find a way to be joyful. All inclusive…Safe haven, here.💖(photos: mine)

Americans are slow learners with very short attention spans.
Republicans wreck the economy and the Democrats come in and clean it up. Because the voters don’t think they are doing it fast enough, they throw them out.
This time, they may have wrecked Democracy.

I was thinking the same thing. I am sure a certain population gets food for when they need to film. The general population, starves.

This may be a very old variety called, “Seven Sisters”.
Both of my grandmothers, grew them. I have seen them on old farms, my whole life. They are named, seven sisters, because they bloom in clusters of seven.

Standing up to fascism used to be a patriotic thing. Now it’s being framed as a “Hate America” thing.

It’s not America we hate. It’s an authoritarian government.

Hence, #NoKings events. Oct 18 is a day of peaceful protest against dictatorship.

Arcade

Life spins...a carousel, round and round,
A dance of dreams where illusions abound.
The steed moves on in rhythmic trance,
Blaming the tune or the ride by chance.

Another token in the whirling ring,
The cycle flows, no end, no spring.
A free ride longed for, softly denied,
Hope dissolves as giddiness strides.

Pierced by the pole in a cruel ballet,
The dismount comes when lights decay.
When silence settles and echoes fade,
A heavy hush haunts the empty arcade.

Horrific. A 50-year old black man had a stroke & was confused from it. Cops didn’t want to “waste time” doing a thorough evaluation for a medical emergency, assumed it was drugs, & simply threw him in jail. He died

A tragic example of the cruelty of structural racism

How brilliant that would be. Only fair if men had a tail, too.
Evidently, dogs have zero control over tail wags.
Downside; poker, negotiating, and ugly babies.
