Learned a new phrase today. Hope we have the opportunity to use it soon!
Damnatio Memoriae:
It was a form of severe punishment in Roman times intended to obliterate a person's legacy after their death or removal from power, essentially forcing them into oblivion.
“Our” media is wholly owned by the billionaire class now.
Gorgeous! My brother has one similar. You are very talented!
Sam’s work is also in the Smithsonian. His wife was a classmate of my aunts. My parents made sure to purchase at least one piece for each of us kids. Lucky me!
Your RPM spider caught my eye- and your reference to Sam Maloof. He was a family friend. That’s a follow!
My neighbor’s yard.

GOP cowards say: courage is for Democrats.
It’ll never happen in our lifetimes.

2day: 1st physical in yrs. When they put on the blood pressure cuff and oxygen reader, I panicked and fought off tears. Tried 3X; BP too high. That last day when my love collapsed in my arms, I hooked up his BP and oxy counters; my last act of care before 911 crew arrived; his final ride.
