This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Progress at the end of last night.
Still need to prep all the binding before final assembly of the bag. Then it's handled and the cloth lining

In spite of the shame I feel of our current regime in Washington, our work goes on. A new bag and a new chair are underway, somehow beautiful things must overcome the ugliness, vitriol, and stupidity in the world today.

The chair is done, now to switch
Back to leather goods. I won't be doing any art fairs this year so I'd like to reduce the inventory I have on hand.

Starting with this tote bag in green and natural Italian vegtan.

France spent a considerable sum of money to aid American colonists to defeat England.

France never demanded our minerals as a payment for assisting.

France ultimately became an even more wealthy nation because the United States existed.

Freedom isn't a transaction. But it should be an export.

you don't talk about stuff like eggs or long lines at national parks because those are more important than the coup against the rule of law. you talk about that stuff because getting low information americans mad at Trump about that stuff is a precondition to getting them to care about the big stuff

Fit the comb and plugged the bungled mortises. Now debating final shape of the comb before disassembly to carve the seat.

Vaccinate your kids god damnit
The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.
