Pity the Nation. Poem by Lawrence Ferlinghetti. Pity the nation whose people are sheep And whose shepherds mislead them Pity the nation whose leaders are liars Whose sages are silenced and whose bigots haunt the airways Pity the nation that raises not its voice bu aims to rule the world by force and by torture And knows no other language but its own Pity the nation whose breath is money and sleeps the sleep of the too well fed Pity the nation Oh pit the people of my country My country, tears of thee Sweet land of liberty!
I think this is what you call "The Miracle on Ass"! What a bunch of losers.

Thinking of the good people of Minnesota today - solidarity forever.
If you're as far away from MN as I am, and if you're able, maybe look around on the Stand With Minnesota site to see where you might be able to help today?
Actually, it IS for sale to the billionaires right now. But it shouldn’t be.
It already exists, but it's not on the internet. It's called nature.
A few years ago, I found this charming portrait of a young girl with a wooden birdie on the chair. No doubt she was "watching the birdie" just before this picture was created.
Why?
And here it is!
My post about some amazing but forgotten early 20th-century photography is now live on Medium.

The DOJ says it has "discovered" a million more #Epstein documents. It turns out that Bill Gates was sitting on them all long.
1865 newspaper article: A Michigan soldier arrested for stealing a goose said he found the bird hissing at the American flag and arrested him for treason.
Here's a headline from the Aurora Journal [Indiana]newspaper of December 30, 1865, that could easily come right out of today's news.
Great news for American #libraries and all of us who use them!

Portrait of Anne Brigman by Francis Bruguiere. She sits on the floor clothed in a loose flowing gown while staring into a clear glass ball.
Soul of the Blasted Pine, a self-portrait created by Brigman. She rises unclothed from a twisted stump, reaching toward a cloud-filled sky with her left hand in the air.
The Dying Cedar by Anne Brigman. A semi-nude woman draped in a long, dark cloth mimics the shaped of a twisted tree against a dramatic sky.
Wondrous Globe, by anne Brigman. A nude boy kneels on the ground and studies a glass globe sitting on the ground in front of him. The ground rises sharply at an angle, and the scene is viewed in profile. The sky behind is filled with soft white clours.
Happy Birthday to Anne Brigman, born #OTD in near Honolulu, Hawaii. She became one of the most recognized photographers of all time for her many pictorialist images of women and others who seemed to live in nature.

You're so right - I look forward to many nights in Bedroom #4.
5 similar one-story houses, each painted a distinctive color, sit at the edge of Lake Michigan, which is barely visible behind the houses. The sky above is deep blue except for a few floating white clouds.
