Crazy making?
Hand drawing about 1000 rocks on this lime kiln and then painting each individually?
Well, yeah, a little.
But a lot more beneficial to the brain than watching the Big Orange Bastard.

Oh, yes sir, Mr. Trump sir, here's that sack of shit you ordered. What's that, sir? Oh, yes, plenty more on the truck. Top quality State of the Union shit, yes sir.

Travel Photo ~
Finally, a shot that clearly illustrates where I am now.
"But", you ask, "do you think this does as much good as marching in a No Kings protest against the Big Orange Nazi Bastard today?"
"Approximately", I answer.

Masked Figure with Orange Purse ~
Just digging through old files, came across this from the Time of The Mask. Realized I enjoyed those days far more than these: The Time of The Nazi. The plague "we" elected.

Big Step ~
We took a huge step down on the 5th of November, 2024. Many of the bones of America were broken. Have we even hit bottom? Will we heal? Will we ever be able to climb back up? Will I live to see it?

. . . and my shadow . . .
A Ring-billed Gull, like all of us in these political times, feeling the solid earth cracking beneath our feet. Will it be only our failure, only the dark shadow of our ineptitude that reaches the 7th generation?

Conversation ~
Cormorants chatting, perhaps, about the best places for a good fish dinner and then about the sorry state of humans. Don't they remember the last time the Nazis were in power? What's the point of their written words, anyway?

It was a quiet night here in Port Arend in the late sultry summer. Upstairs from the Red Cup, though, Rosalyn is just waking from a nightmare of Nazis taking over America. "Crazy dream!", she scolds herself. "Crazy!"

So much to be done yet in my little make-believe world -- and so much I can do. So much to be done in the great big real world -- but so little I know how to do. I guess I'll just try not to be a fuckin' Nazi, for a start.

O.K., you can see the rainbow, but no pot of gold for you if you're born on the wrong side of the fence. Unless . . . (basically, unless you're white)

Let Us Hope Against Hope ~
That the Green Man is only temporarily stymied by the antics of the Big Orange Bastard.

At 81, and against all odds, I find myself still on the tracks. Thought I might be pulled into the light, but this engine is pushing me into the dark. #TheDarkAges #MakeAssholesGreatAgain #ModelRailroad #Oscale #diorama #BigOrangeBastard
What's the 4th of July?
Oh, yeah, that's Independence Day, right? What were we declaring independence from, again?

No Kings!
Awake around 5:00 AM today, so did an earlier BSky post, then painted up a shirt & joined about 1500 of my closest friends & strangers for a little stroll around Sturgeon Bay, WI.

GAGGLE ~
Now that the Asshole-In-Chief thinks he can rename the Gulf of Mexico, I wonder if the Canada Goose will become the Goose of America? So long as it can generously shit on the lawn of Mar-a-Lago, I guess it's OK.

No News is Good News (?) ~
Do you sometimes wish you were on a tiny island, perhaps misplaced in the Baltic, where news might take a very long time to arrive and the name Trump had never been heard? Or is that the sound of walrus crap landing on a rock?

Emergency Exit
While so many risk life and limb, family and friends, trying to get in -- a few of us are seriously looking for a way out.

Blue Sky, White Birch
Enjoy the blue sky while we have it . Many here are too young to remember a time before the EPA. I'm very afraid we'll soon see a time after EPA, and our environment (meaning the air you breathe) will suffer.

From the Abyss
Even if all his policies were reversed tomorrow, could the U.S. ever hope to climb back from the low ground the Big Orange Bastard and his Musk Rat have taken us to?

Hands Off
Let me give you a hand. Sad to say that I did not bodily attend a demonstration/rally today. My heart and soul were there. Thanks to all who are fighting for the America we thought we knew, free of the #BigOrangeBastard and the #MuskRat.

Silent Spring?
Why can't I remember so bleak a springtime? Hint: this has nothing to do with the weather. It may possibly have to do with the fucking Nazi takeover of America, or something like that.

Another Fence
The Quebecois ship, Frontenac, of the Canada Steamship Line, like our old friend -- now effectively fenced off, taken from us by one idiot's ego.

Hope?
Like this cheap old Sears & Roebuck fiddle I cobbled together from its broken pieces, I know America was never a Stradivarius, but we made a sort of music. Perhaps we can patch it up and do it again.

A thought:
Here's a photo I snapped while flying over Greenland. Since the Big Orange Bastard is hot to get his hands on it, I think we should drop him into the dead center so he could have a look around. Maybe he'd have a parachute, maybe not.
