Chris Murphy: "I Just came from a two hour, closed door classified briefing on the war. It just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent. We are not gonna be able to achieve any of our stated objectives ... this is a disaster of epic proportions, a 10 day debacle"

My painting YARMOUTH PORT

Photo of a sketch on a table with multiple acrylic pens scattered around it. The sketch depicts a torii door with red / orange leaves tree on the sides. In the middle of the door stands a little samurai silhouette and on top of it sits a cat. Acrylic pens on a5 paper.

Daily sketch ⛩️🍁🥷🐈‍⬛️

Can you spot the cat ? I think you can.

Tried to only use acrylic pens for this one. I'm not convinced but here we go anyway 😹

It’s nearly impossible to lose Grenell, but Ogles pulled it off.

Truly unbelievable stuff. Just up there shamelessly lying his ass off

Q: You said the war is 'very complete.' But your defense secretary says 'this is just the beginning.' So which is it?


TRUMP: You could say both

Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof.

That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy.

The dealer needs to keep you addicted.

Persephone is 11 years old.

Persephone just discovered that Mom-Hooman had something called “comb” that is the best itch-skritch EVER.

Persephone now herds Mom-Hooman into the Room of Skritch at least thrice daily, bleating like a goat and nipping at her feet.

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

Murphy: “I think it’s likely the U.S. carried out this attack on this school — I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact that this was one of our 1st targeting decisions, that this mistake was made on the 1st day of war — I think speaks to the incompetence of our leadership”

a close-up of a small flower whose five egg-shaped petals come to a blunt point. the petals are starkly white but marked with faint pink streaks; at the base of each petal there is a small spot of golden yellow. the ovary in the center of the flower has a pale green tint, with pale pink anthers suspended above on white stamens. behind the blooming flower there is an upright bud fixing to open, plus a few nodding buds encased in green.

this flower's five petals are curved up forming a bowl around the white stamens with pink anthers that stand in the center of the flower. the white petals are streaked purple-pink, with a golden yellow spot at the base of each. a couple buds getting ready to open hang to either side, with a whole clutch of green, younger buds nodding down in between.

the forest floor here has patches of green moss but is mostly coverd with brown fallen tree leaves. some young green leaves and shoots are poking up through the leaves, including long, thin, green or purplish-green springbeauty leaves similar to blades of grass. there are scattered blooming white springbeauty flowers across the scene.

The only way Trump can crash America and plunder the wreckage is to violate the Constitution.
If he went to Congress for permission to wage war, to impose taxes, to revise the budget, to change voting procedures, as required by the Constitution, it would take forever to do what he's already done.
