Everything going on is just so damn shitty. Nice to have a reminder of amazing beauty, even if the appreciation lasts just a moment.

I keep seeing the "41 minutes" and have the haunting Springsteen song American Skin (41 Shots) playing in my head now.

To paint snow, Monet used pale blues, pinks, and violets—not white.

At London’s Savoy Hotel, Monet painted dozens of canvases at once, sprinting between them as fog and light shifted over the Thames.
A witness said: “He ran from one canvas to another, in a frenzy, trying to capture the fugitive effects of light before they vanished.”

This is an excellent – and sadly, rare – response by a reporter to the Trump regime's evasion of a question and attempt to stick a canned statement into a news story. In many cases like this, reporters from mainstream media have repeated the Trumpers' dishonest spin. Hurray that Jessica refused to.
