I’m a professional writer/editor/photographer who also owns a boutique publishing company. I love hiking and photographing nature. Biggest accomplishment in life is having raised two amazing humans who share their artistic gifts with the world.

A coordinated effort to silence critics and free speech.

Must be a coincidence.

Newsom: He is a failed president. Who else sends ICE at the same time while having a conversation like this? Someone who is weak, broken. His weakness is masquerading as a strength. The most unpopular president in modern history.

Damn, 1000 people for an empty chair with no show andy barr www.kentucky.com/news/politic...
Nearly 1,000 people attend Lexington rally to protest Trump cuts. Rep. Barr is a no-show
Rep. Andy Barr’s office said they did not coordinate the town hall and hinted that it was staged by paid liberal activists. Those who attended said they are not paid activists.

President Biden signed legislation in his last weeks in office allowing a monument dedicated to American women to be built on the National Mall. The Women’s Suffrage National Monument will be the Mall's first honoring women's history.

Make art that you think is fuckin sick as hell. Make the shit you never thought you could that you always wanted to see. Beat your insecurity to death and fight to become your own favorite artist.

A meteor shower
What's happening in the sky above Stonehenge? A meteor shower: specifically, the Perseid meteor shower. A few nights ago, after the sky darkened, many images of meteors from this year's Perseids were captured separately and merged into a single frame. Although the meteors all traveled on straight paths, these paths appear slightly curved by the wide-angle lens of the capturing camera. The meteor streaks can all be traced back to a single point on the sky called the radiant, here just off the top of the frame in the constellation of Perseus. The same camera took a deep image of the background sky that brought up the central band of our Milky Way galaxy running nearly vertical through the image center. The featured image was taken from Wiltshire, England, being careful to include, at the bottom, the famous astronomical monument of Stonehenge. Although the Perseids peaked last night, some Perseid meteors should still be visible for a few more nights. Image Credit & Copyright: Josh Dury

All of this.
Tweet that says if your concern with trans women is that men might claim to self-ID as trans to gain access to women’s spaces and assault them, then your problem is actually with predatory men and not trans women.

Normalize inconsistency in your art. Normalize not making every art piece super detailed and intricate. Normalize just creating art for the sake of it.

Loved seeing our daughter on the big screen today. Really enjoyed the film. Congratulations to all involved, for creating a smart, suspenseful, at times funny, and scary film. I look forward to seeing what’s next for #ACultFollowing

Full moon and meteor shower tonight.

You can observe only a fraction of astronomical phenomena with your naked eye. Meteor showers are one of them. The latest observable meteor shower will be the Leonids, which reach their peak Saturday night into Sunday morning. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/15/s...
The Leonid meteor shower is seen streaking across a starry sky, as viewed from North Macedonia in November 2020. Photo by Georgi Licovski/EPA, via Shutterstock. A headline reads: "How to Watch the Leonids Meteor Shower Peak This Weekend."
