I watered and covered the rosemary, but forgot about the kale, which is not in sight of the house. Hoping it survived the temperature plunge. It did last year, but there was snow then, which buffered it. #gardening

I run an IRL writers group that is open to the community. Today, an elderly woman showed up and started a discussion about using chatGPT in the middle of the meeting, like she couldn't tell we're a critique group. We're all going to get old and mixed up someday. It's awkward. #writing

#art #copperenamel I was cleaning the copper strips that pile up next to the bench shear, when the light hit them just right to turn them into art. Enamel makes the pile permanent.
Not sure what to call this one.

Back after a long hiatus. I didn't get deported or arrested. Just stepped back for a bit.

I used to watch CBS news, then switched to NBC, and now I don't watch any of it. I read the NYT and 1440, but I feel cut off. Looking forward to the post Trump era.

This was treason. This was every word you can think of. They tried to steal the election. They tried to obfuscate the election. They did things that nobody’s ever even imagined, even in other countries.
This is Trump accusing Obama. Narcissists talk about themselves.

I've got some items that never show up in search on my Etsy shop, so I decided to run a sale. I don't do this often, because most people mark up to run sales, and I'm not a game player. Anyway, enjoy. www.kickglassenamels.etsy.com

THIS IS AMERICA: ICE isn’t stopping shit at the border. They’re raiding Utah neighborhoods with Pentagon-level gear.
And now they’ve got a bigger budget than the U.S. Marines.
No oversight. No accountability.
You’re not safe. No one is.

Art question.
In the early eighties, this style was known as New Wave, Punk New Wave, Punk, or Memphis punk. It's making a resurgence, and I'm having fun going back to my art school roots. What is this called now? I need to know how to tag things. Thanks. #art

Immigrants aren't the problem. The people who decided they don't belong in the US are.

The Trumpers are locking up and deporting immigrants without establishing that immigrants are a problem. They aren't. They're an asset. If it's an issue that they're in the US illegally, create a path to migrate legally.
