Big part of every Foodraiser are the folks who get adventurous and offer donations based on the number of donors who contribute

That's me. I'm kicking in $5-per-donor, no matter how few or how many there are.

If you want to get in on that action, please reply here, including amounts and caps 🙂

Statement from President Jimmy Carter on the passing of his beloved wife Rosalynn:

“Rosalynn was my equal partner in everything I ever accomplished. She gave me wise guidance and encouragement when I needed it. As long as Rosalynn was in the world, I always knew somebody loved and supported me.”

Great (very) Blue Heron in the early morning sun.

This isn't true color. I was wearing thick gloves due to the cold and apparently fumbled the camera's white balance setting a couple of clicks into the blue without realizing it.

That said, I like the effect.

If Greg Doucette has taught me nothing, he’s taught me that this is typical, predictable, common. Also see Deshaney v Winnebago. Cops don’t have a duty. Generally, they don’t protect the vulnerable. They don’t serve. You’re lucky if they don’t shoot you and your dog.
An 82-year-old woman told police that her caretaker was going to kill her

The officers complimented the caretaker on the firearms he had inside the home and left, even though she begged them to stay

The caretaker killed the woman four hours later

"I said you're fine until I kill you," her caretaker said with Rio Rancho officers present in the room.

Heads up that I will be pleading with y'all for help with the Foodraiser soon

Pre-fundraising has not gone well, and I haven't had a chance to start regular fundraising yet

I did finally start putting some info at foodraiser.info at least

I love when right wingers get mad at media matters because all they do is post what they say and it looks horrible even to them, but instead of reconsidering they get furious at media matters for writing it down bsky.app/profile/bobb...

Full sequence of the annular solar eclipse at Shiprock, New Mexico. This was a dream composition of mine. So much time, energy, and money went into making it happen. I'm forever grateful to the Navajo for letting me shoot it from sacred ground. An experience I'll never forget.
