The irony of the need to still earn a living while an unelected agent of greed & chaos tears apart our privacy & economy is not lost as I leave on one of many(?) business trips planned for this year.

For folks who say, "Why should I even bother calling my Democratic Senator? They'll vote the right way..."
I need you to understand that when Dem electeds try to justify why they're cowering in terror from Trump right now, the VERY FIRST THING THEY CITE is:
"no one's calling my office"

And next year’s words await a new voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.

Unpopular opinion: About half the people selling their photography skills shouldn’t be. Like so many other artistic endeavors, hustle culture and social media make amateurs sell their “skills” before they are ready. Focus is critical, people. I don’t even care if it’s selective focus…

We have so inured ourselves to the crush of capitalism we barely remember that not every single moment has to be transactional.
We should fight fiercely for those that aren’t.

Also if authentic Peruvian spindles interest you I suggest you get them soon because I honestly don’t know if I’m gonna be able to keep making them available this way. It’s a lot of work and challenging logistics and if interest isn’t strong enough I can’t keep doing it
OK so then I decided if I’m ranting about spindles I may as well put the ones I have in stock on sale.
Some of these are the really special ones that there’s only one guy who makes and he’s the apprentice of the guy who died and we’re trying to keep him making them
