I was so excited to cast my vote for Taylor both in the general and then in the runoff. THANK YOU, TARRANT COUNTY!!
Also, we were getting 3+ flyers per week in the mail from Wambgsanns. 😵💫

BREAKING: Taylor Rehmet, a Democrat, just won the Texas SD-9 special election,
He just flipped a district that Trump won by 17 points and that hasn’t sent a Democrat to the legislature in 36 years.
Despite Trump’s personal endorsement and sustained push for Leigh Wambsganss, Republicans LOST!!

Creatives, it is never too late to bring more of a good thing into the world. If you like something and feel discouraged because ‘there’s already too much ___,’ there’s not. Make more. We want your version, too.

I saw Philip Glass was trending and braced for the worst.
“Breaking news: Renowned composer Philip Glass…”
*Oh no…*
“…withdraws from Kennedy Center.”
*Fuck yeah*

The majestic organ pipe cactus. I claim ocotillo are my favorite desert plants, but organ pipe cactus are also my favorite. I can’t express how amazing these things are.

Stephen Miller stripped out protections that would prevent ICE from deporting U.S. CITIZENS at the last minute.
Yep. OFC he did.

As someone who grew up exclusively in the SBC, this fascinates me and 100% tracks.
Currently reading “Everyone Who is Gone is Here” and it discusses how the ABC tried to help the undocumented in the ‘80s and were brought to court over it. Would never see that type of moral stance from the SBC.

If you've ever wondered about the difference between Southern Baptists & American Baptists (formerly known as Northern Baptists), the Twin Cities are showing it.
An SBC church has a pastor who's an ICE leader.
An ABC church a block from Pretti's execution is ministering to those terrorized by ICE:

An American Baptist church is 1 block from where Alex Pretti was executed. They're passing out coffee & opened building to people visiting memorial. They had to hold their Sunday service elsewhere & it was powerful joint service with another American Baptist church: wordandway.org/2026/01/26/a...

I regret that I only had half a day at Organ Pipe Cactus. Would love to go back. Here’s a saguaro from there.

Because of Minneapolis, many faith leader across the country have information and training they are able to bring back to their own cities. ❤️
NEW: I was one of 3 reporters granted access to the convening of 600+ clergy in Minneapolis this week.
It was a striking show of solidarity with MN clergy resisting ICE, but heralded something else: the emergence of a vast, faith-based network trained to resist ICE. religionnews.com/2026/01/23/i...

It worked! Tripod got bumped when I put in the film holder (which appears to have some minor light leaks) for the first image, but otherwise— success! In the comments is a photo of me using my jacket as a dark cloth. 😅

Tomorrow I should get my first two 4x5 negatives & scans back. I’m really hoping for no light leaks and that I did everything right. 🤞 They were test shots, so nothing spectacular, image-wise.
The next two I’ll scan myself and later this year start developing, at least black & white for the 4x5.

I mentally replace whatever they said with, “Women are getting too tall”, then I have a good laugh and go on with my day.
