Grazer, of Brooks Falls, is my inspiration for the long winter ahead. I took this photo last summer of her with her cubs, one of whom was killed by a male bear a couple of days later. She won the Fat Bear competition despite grieving, nursing, and fishing for 2. Fatten yourself up, democracy lovers.

Trump is increasingly worried about his own mortality, and he's trying to use government to create a physical legacy that will outlive him.

‘Nap’ comes from ‘nape,' which means “tablecloth.”
So a napkin is a little tablecloth.

I take on average 10,000 stills and a half hour of video every week. Most I'll never think about again. This I'll hold onto until I grow old. 4 hours ago.
Zero edits. No recoloring. No cropping. Nothing. Just straight up reality. 🦑

Release the Jack Smith transcript.
Jack Smith is calling for the House Judiciary Committee to release the recording of his full closed-door deposition before the panel.
"Doing so will ensure that the American people can hear the facts directly from Mr. Smith, rather than through second-hand accounts."

“Finding” a million additional Epstein documents on the day everyone is distracted with their families is as competent as Pam Bondi’s coverup is ever going to get.

Mom's family ran a dairy store at Seattle's Pike Place Market in the '50's. She knew her cheeses. We grew up with a variety that were not available in our suburban markets. My brother re-married about 10 years ago and after visiting a couple of us she remarked, "What's with your family and cheese?"
