When Heather Cox Richardson called for concerned artists to come up with images to fight this administration, I came up with this, an encouragement to the millions of Americans who have taken to the streets to fight for Democracy. Thanks, Heather! (Feel free to share.)

I saw so many responses and reposts yesterday. Lots of y'all said it helped you feel less alone.

I wanted to build on this a little, and gently ask/recommend that you choose kindness whenever possible (with others and yourself) because you never know; your kindness could make the difference.
I'm having a rough go of it lately, and have been thinking: everyone is going through something, and you have no idea what it is, or how it's affecting them.

Quote post this is if you're going through something, and maybe we'll all realize that we aren't as alone as we feel right now.

Or maybe this will die in the great silent void of the dead internet that once had so much promise before the worst people in the world destroyed it. I guess we'll find out together.

At one of his frequent press conferences (because he loves being on TV), I'd love it if some reporter piped up with, "What do you say to people who call you a know-nothing narcissistic asshole, Mr. President?"

I will figure out a way to incorporate BlueSky in my social media rotation. It's refreshing to be around like minded people and those that appreciate things like, photography, nature, the arts, and fun quirky stuff.

Happy Thursday!

Listening to some Home Free (homefreemusic.com) this morning as I work. If you're not familiar with them, give 'em a listen.

Second, my new favorite breakfast food is Cinnabon flavored Cream of Wheat. Don't judge - it's that good.

During the speech yesterday, I was surprised to learn tRump could speak with the dead: he mentioned speaking with Lee Iacocca who has been dead for 6 years.
That's some DnD wizard powers. 😜😂

9 of the top 10 poorest states are Red states.

Blue counties are 71% of the U.S. economy while Red counties are only 29%.

So if you ever wondered how stupid Trump’s tariff & trade war is, consider that he’s destroying what little economic opportunity Red states have, rather than admit he’s wrong.

Gotta love it when Spotify plays two good songs back to back: Dire Straits - Walk of Life and Starship - We Built This City.
I think it's gonna be a good music day. 😀

Haven't gotten the hang of BlueSky. But I am proud to say I have been learning Vietnamese.

4. hit "Send Feedback"
5. hit "Gulf Of America"
6. hit "Inaccurate content".
7. hit "Incorrect", then tell them its name: ‘Gulf of Mexico’
8. Repeat often 🙂

Having to fight Elon Musk at DOGE before we’ve even battled Trump feels like having to defeat the forces of Saruman first at Helm’s Deep.
