Elon is upset that the public is staying informed. So many threats from him lately. We are public servants, not Elon servants.

I think a LOT of people forget that most members joined at 18-19. I wonder what the quality of THEIR life choices were at that age?

can we please stop telling people who joined the military that they “knew what they signed up for”?

Even if you’ve never heard a surprising story from a veteran, it just means you don’t talk to the right people.

🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Walk around your neighborhood! Meet your neighbors, find the local elderly that need help picking up, or a person to talk to.

Lefties.

Your activism can’t just be online or even just “in the streets” at like, protests.

It needs to be in

Soup Kitchens
Homeless shelters
Schools
Nursing Homes
City Council meetings
Religious Centers
Art Studios
Libraries
Union Halls
Hospitals

Foxtrot Delta Tango is written vertically on a rainbow colored sheet on placed on a blue digital background, and flanked by the nonbinary and trans flags.

Thankfully the water was kind to me today and the frisket peeled off perfectly.

Gotta love when a factual (and compassionate) statement is a “hot take”.

A clipboard with a piece of paper clipped to it has “FDT” in a yellow liquid latex written vertically is resting on a blue digital backdrop.

Today seems like a good day to do some art therapy. I have a love/hate relationship with liquid frisket, but now is not the time to take the easy road. Sometimes the hard part needs to be done.

While the earth eclipses the moon, I find myself drinking libations and reflecting on my past while looking forwards to the future.

Instead of focusing on burning down our current decaying society, let us grow the garden of our future amongst its cracks until it overtakes it all into a lush forest of prosperity and abundance

💯 healthy growth takes time, commitment, and motivation. Compassion may creep, but where it grows it holds fast.

Elon Musk’s staffers have been granted access to a sensitive child support database by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The data access was approved by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., despite resistance from career employees within the department. Sorry, we tried…

Legal counsel representing federal employees is now being targeted by the Trump administration. Law firms are receiving a clear message that retaliation is possible for those advocating on behalf of individuals or groups opposing the administration’s agenda.

Please listen and share—this is a very serious situation. This is extremely alarming! The Trump administration, across two agencies, is considering bringing criminal charges against employees simply for doing their jobs.

Elbows stay up around here.

You know, the elbow is an often forgotten and overlooked part of the body. I’m glad that at least some people get it.

A vibrant red wedge of cloud cuts down on distant desert mountains at the end of this day.

Moving backyards can be stressful, but it is always well worth it. Sometimes a change of scenery is just what is needed, even if it is just for a breath.

You might not see it in the mainstream media, but over 10,000 people protested today at Tesla showrooms across the country, another 10,000+ rallied in support of national parks, and more than 1,000 gathered in Vermont to protest Vance’s visit.

Another day, another beautiful sky painting.

Please read—this is becoming serious!

Oak trees leaves are changing color and falling from trees in the foreground, a body of water cuts in and back out on the left hand side allowing mid distant pines to reflect in the water.

Deep in Mississippi lies a memory of a lake, sun dancing through changing leaves.
