(explaining war to a conservative in a way that they might understand) bombing a country is kind of like changing their cracker barrel logo

Matt's got weekly work trips rn yet spends his weekends cooking & freezing meals for me so I eat more than salad and chips during my long days at my desk.

@thatwitchmia.bsky.social lovingly pushed me to handle some self-care stuff I'd been ignoring while so busy. Just 2 examples of my own village!

1 Screenshot from the movie "Dumbo" (1941): First, a black-and-white newspaper front page from "The News Bulletin" dated Thursday, March 13, 1941, with the bold headline "WONDER ELEPHANT SOARS TO FAME!" Below, a subheading reads, "Miracle Mammoth Startles World!" accompanied by a doctored photograph of an elephant flying over the Statue of Liberty. Various smaller articles mention wartime events, a mediation plan submitted to the president, and weather updates.

Mar 13th 1941 - After flying at a circus thanks to his large ears, the elephant Jumbo Jr. became a media sensation.

Too many people, including some news media, let the truth be trampled upon without thought for what is happening to us and our nation.

Photos of the neighborhoods being bombed in Iran and also of the children and people killed when the school was bombed. Words that say war has no winners

There are no winners in War. People suffer. die. Both sides lose good people. Billionaires pull the strings to their gain but they won’t win in the end. Karma is a bitch.

The fragile insecure flower is crying again.

The only thing Republicans have ever tried to conserve was their own power and privilege.

"I don't want the president of the United States to have a cognitive deficiency."

Too late.

My gawd almighty. And we never thought it would happen here. The depths of depravity the US govt has sunk to is astounding to me.

Also, the conservatives are pedophiles and Nazis and Nazi pedophiles.

🤣

Go on - I dare you! 😉😄

I say, "Don't encourage me" a lot for someone who likes encouragement.

And Daughters.....

I’ve talked to people who are skipping doses of their medication because it’s too expensive. Meanwhile, drug companies are raking in billions.

Congress needs to expand drug price negotiations.

It’s time to put patients ahead of Big Pharma profits.

That's also the reason why there are men who don't want to be seen as feminine in any way shape or form. Because they know how they treat women and they don't want other men to treat them the same way.

I visited Kyoto, Japan, this year to photograph the Sakura season--Japanese cherry trees in bloom. This painting captures the view from Philosopher's Path, a winding walkway of large stones that traverses the width of Kyoto. The path follows a water-filled canal, and cherry trees overhang the entire walkway. This painting captures the peaceful beauty of cherry trees at dusk.

Thank you. I hear Wisconsin is lovely.

Still remember being surrounded by jubilation the night he won and then thinking about my white christian nationalist family and getting a chill thinking “oh we are going to pay for this someday.” And here we are, so much worse than I ever imagined ☹️

Racism. The answer is racism.

Amazing 💙

Those were the exact words I was going to post on my own page. Miss him and his leadership oh so much...
