Self-Portrait (c.1630) by Dutch Golden Age painter Judith Leyster. The artwork is significant for the relaxed and confident appearance of the subject which departs from more formal portrayals of women artists in self portraits #womensart
Painting of a sitting white woman in a silk dress and large ruff, the subject rests her elbow on her seat and looks out to the viewer with a slight smile, she sits at the easel holding a paintbrush, the painting she is working on features a man playing the violin

Not to be THAT dictionary, but…

It’s ‘per se,’ not ‘per say.’
It’s ‘dog-eat-dog world,’ not ‘doggy-dog world.’
It’s ‘hunger pangs,’ not ‘hunger pains.’
It’s ‘one and the same,’ not ‘one in the same.’
It's 'buck naked,' not 'butt naked.'

At least Charlie died for his cause. Fair enough.
…And no mention of how Jesus would feel about children being raped & predators protected.

Trump has launched seven deadly strikes in the Caribbean Sea.

Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.

He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.

“.. They are the asylum seekers, the rule followers. They go into the federal building holding papers .. hoping for a measure of due process. Some leave the courthouse with a hearing date set months or years from now. Others disappear into ICE’s prison system.”

Before change takes root, it rattles the branches. Before justice sings, it stirs the silence. Rep. John Lewis—civil rights icon, moral compass, and relentless truth-teller—reminded us that progress isn’t polite. It’s loud. It’s inconvenient. It’s necessary.

“We found over 35 cases in which the judges have specifically said what the government is providing…false information. It might be intentionally false information, including false sworn declarations time and again," says Ryan Goodman, law professor at New York University.

Hundreds of new homes for veterans are coming to California through voter-approved Prop 1 funding.

707 permanent supportive homes — including 231 for veterans — will be built across the state through the Homekey+ program.

California stands with those who’ve served our country.
