Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Getting ready for the ArtEast Open Studio Tour, Oct. 18/19 and 25/26. It's always a challenge on what to include...but I think this Orb makes the cut. Not AI or manipulated! More on ArtEast at ArtEastDutchess.com

I can’t think of a good outcome.

Artist activist’s statue of Trump and Epstein appeared over night in Washington DC. Love their action! Release the information on the pedofiles and traffickers. Believe their victims. #DC #Justice

Two of my faves together for one event! I can't wait to hear what @hcrichardson.bsky.social and @redwineblueusa.bsky.social say about the elections this fall, and how to resist authoritarianism right now, both in D.C. and in our own neighborhoods. Sign up with me! social.redwine.blue/s/UEYBaiGX

His last sentence really nails it. The only thing that really matters in Korporate Amerikkka is shareholder value and profit. And it's been that way for a long, long time.

At a time when the most influential media institutions and leaders in the U.S. need to stand up for free speech, they are doing the opposite — either to line their pockets or avoid Trump’s wrath.

They’re treating the erosion of our fundamental rights as a cost of doing business.

And now for something different. My scrawny night blooming Queen of the Night has always been stingy with flowers. Maybe five over the summer. Due to a change in location and spending some time in full sun…there were 15 buds that all bloomed over three nights. #stunning. #Photography #NightBloom
