Day 13 of #ArtAdventCalendar
My very first wet felt landscape!
I added needle felting to the sun and trees for more definition, plus did some embroidery accents. It is based of an alcohol ink piece I did years ago. 😊☀️

Peace Rose in watercolor, 20x16 💖 #ArtAdventCalendar day 15
Inspired by a special rose in my parents' garden. I poured lots of love into this painting. A very meaningful project after my mom passed away in 2021. #art #flowers #garden #nature #BloomScrolling

I lived thru the end of public smoking. Early in my career I presented to city councils who were smoking, in front of audiences who were smoking.

Smoking in restaurants, airplanes, hospitals…

All of that seems insane now, but it was very controversial when we DID change it.

We CAN change things.
It’s crazy that people used to be able to just smoke cigarettes wherever they wanted

Hassett doesn’t understand the difference in cherry-picking specific examples vs the index that removes that bias by looking across items. 🤷‍♂️
BRENNAN: The president said 'prices are coming down tremendously.' But the latest data shows the consumer price index up 3% year over year. What data is he looking at?

HASSETT: He went through the individual items that we've already made a bunch of progress on

Yaqia Wang, per 📰The Guardian

“courage can be cultivated

through exposure & repetition, much like building a muscle.

When people from China ask me how to overcome fear…
take one small step beyond their comfort zone,
then see how it feels before taking the next.”

You can measure the quality of news outlets' political coverage by how often they write headlines starting with the words "Trump says" that don't show any skepticism about what Trump is saying even though he's the most prominent American liar of modern times.

There's no rule of journalism that says you have to show a president telling lie after lie – uncorrected – many times a day. That's a decision that corporate media are making for purposes other than delivering the truth to the public.

1. Jared Kushner's trip to Moscow yesterday was not just unethical; it was illegal.

You cannot accept tens of millions of dollars from foreign governments and simultaneously conduct high-level diplomacy for the federal government.

It says it right in the Constitution.
Kushner’s Moscow mission wasn’t just corrupt. It was unconstitutional.
Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law, has been traveling the world to participate in high-stakes foreign policy negotiations on behalf of the president.
