Devastating. Trump admin selling off historic public art to the highest bidder. "It is a tragic irony that murals meant to represent the contract between the government and its citizens would be sold to the highest bidder rather than preserved for posterity." www.alternet.org/trump-destro...
Trump admin selling off historic public art to the highest bidder
Painted figures haunt an empty building. A boy leaning on a pair of crutches. A father and son wandering a barren railroad track. A nuclear family at a picnic table. These poignant scenes were painted...

A Tableau Depicting Animal Life in the Rockies
Taken 10-15 years ago at either #Wight’s or #Molbak’s , north of Bellevue,WA.
Both of these wonderful home & garden stores are now gone. Had to scrape from my FB page as Apple lost some of my pics.

Looks like my school moved up the orientation and admissions date so; I won't be able to open any complicated commissions this month. A shame...

I'll be backlogged due to school slowing me down. Much apologies but I will try my best to keep up! 💙

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

In 2000, almost 90% of Denmark's electricity was from fossil fuels. By 2024, 90% of their electricity was from renewables. ⚡ Energy transitions can happen faster than we think!

It's been almost two weeks and they still haven't released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

LONG RAMBLING EMOTIONAL THREAD:

It's World AIDS Day. Since the Administration has decided to keep it quiet, I'd like to share my introduction to AIDS.

I grew up in Seattle. My mom remarried a man who had a brother who was a King County Sheriff's Deputy. His name was Terry and he was gay. 1/x

I want a President who is HONEST.
I want the entire Presidential administration to be HONEST.
That doesn’t seem like it should be too much to ask.

As we slept, the night
etched its rhyme
over the world,
a message in pitch,
the story of stars
and shadows,
told beneath
a china plate moon

when we awoke,
morning had erased
the chalkboard
and rewritten it
in sunlight's image—
an orange flower
with petals
like seagulls.

MONDAY BLUES - STELLAR'S JAY
Most blue coloration in animals results from structural color, a phenomenon where nanoscale structures (little sponge-like holes & keratin walls inside the feather that are only 200–300 billionths of a meter in size) interact with light.

We have a President who is searching for a WAR! He is already using power reserved for that occasion. Needs to find approval before he is impeached.

They worked so hard to distract us from the Epstein files, but I think they actually made it WORSE for them in the process. I cannot wait until they reap what they sow. #LockHimUp
