I had one last week in Santa Fe called Cheers Queers and it was white peach champagne flavored, non alcoholic, and truly delightful!

Looks great! I have so much art to frame before I can even contemplate hanging it…

Tonight's Milky Way taken from Point Reyes, California. The frames were taken about 33 miles, as the pelican flies, from San francisco. Light the curvature of the Earth is weird!

The Milky Way vertically with some orange and yellow tints at the bottom. These are four 60 second exposures edited in Lightroom and Stitched together on my phone comma so there's definitely a better version on my laptop if I ever release it

“Highly organized.” That means some Chicago folks saw Portland videos online and said “That’s hilarious” and bought a $30 inflatable on Amazon.

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

Black people have been asking this question for a very long time.

Ryan Marino, MD @ryanmarino.bsky.social · 5d

Do you really have any rights if they are openly saying they will just make up reasons to detain you?

thematthill.bsky.social @thematthill.bsky.social · 7d

Wow. Greg Bovino admits on camera that his agents can detain people if you look scared, change your demeanor, or grip a steering wheel too tight.

As his unmasked agents walk around with large guns to scare you, they may arrest you just for that — even if you're a U.S. citizen.

The Harvest Super Moon BEAMS over the Bay Bridge.

This photo was taken by Kim Kowalewski on Monday night. With clearing skies, you can check out the moon again tonight. Moonrise is at 722p in DC. The moon will be about 98% full.

Wear a jacket... it's getting chilly out there!

If U.S. states have any degree of sovereignty, if there’s any states’ rights at all, it is the right not to be invaded by the armed forces of another U.S. state.

The crowd at Audi NEEDED that Kouassi brace for the win. Thank you, Spirit, for letting us have fun and find joy (and to unite against the ref multiple times) for 90.
