Painting is my religion; my church, the studio. Puppetry is my ritual; my prayers, the stories therein.
I paint things I call Ings and fantasy minis: Foolishly embracing the process!
Ask me about Fearful Fridays!

I think we need to make it painfully obvious that people who were once anti-government are now believing every single lie they're being fed by it.

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

the fact that the NRA is offering even this incredibly mild level of resistance is significant.
People do not like what they are seeing.

a skilled ER nurse with a deep sense of civic responsibility is exactly the kind of person you want carrying a firearm.
every ICE employee should be barred from touching anything deadlier than a butter knife for the rest of their natural lives.

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

All of these things are empirically, if not objectively, true
Been saying Trump wants America to be a a Russia-style mafia state since his 1st term.
We’re getting closer every day.

Trump has transformed the justice system into a Putin-style autocratic protection racket. The wealthy are not audited or investigated, if convicted they are pardoned. Political opponents are targeted. Unidentified masked agents grab people off the street, and protesters are shot.
