I'm a wife, mom, and grandma (Mimi). I'm also a professional musician, composer, playwright, and artist. My hobbies include birdwatching, photography of said birds, and sewing! I live with multiple autoimmune diseases that dictate a gluten-free diet.
Red-shouldered hawks are so beautiful. This guy was eating his catch of the hour. We saw several RSHs today in Southwest Oklahoma!

I dreamt about a sweet blue-eyed puppy, and when I awoke, she was real, and she gave me kisses!

I was wondering how firing hundreds of thousands of employees who count on jobs to survive-- how can people say this is helpful & good for the economy?
Also, how do those of you who support this come to the conclusion that these federal workers are evil?
And why is it that you think Musk is good?

Retrumplicans = Evangelical Antichristians.
And neither of those things are Christians.
I refuse to say the "Conservative Christians" or "Evangelical Christians."
From here on out, it's just Evangelical Antichristians.

I don't want this to be true. But, since it is, please remember we are the smart ones. We will build this again. Better. For now, we need to fight so that this is a short chapter in the book. Fight fire with fire.

Please, friends from other countries, ruin them financially.

In every picture I've ever seen of Tulsi Gabbard, she looks completely and unrecognizably different from what she does in the other photos. Like, I have no idea what she actually looks like.

I've never captured such a lovely shot of the majestic red-tail. Usually, I get shots of them on utility poles, haha. Anyway, this one posed nicely for me. Today in North Central Oklahoma, almost Kansas!

You know how you know it's fascism? He wants to demand, by law, supreme loyalty (to him) from everyone working in the government. If it was about respecting the position, all of his supporters and he would have demanded and given that respect for President Biden, too.

If we live in a world where a woman isn't allowed to make choices about her body, we're not saving babies. We're living in the exact same world that can tell us we HAVE to abort. We can see right now they're prioritizing far right lives over all. Don't think they value ALL babies. Just white ones.

69% of us weren't duped. But of the 69%, over half couldn't be bothered to try and save democracy. I feel angry. And, I'm still floored that people I thought I knew actually APPROVE.
The best description about this era of our lives is, again, The Stepford Wives (the original). It's pure evil.

Turning death penalties into "life in prison" isn't the same as releasing violent criminals to the streets to be thugs for the regime. I'm worried about the intelligence of people who don't understand this.
We appear to have 100% of zero Republicans who have a moral and ethical backbone.

How do we find the strength to organize and stay OK?
I keep coming back to this question.
All the responses I can come up with (educate, read, make art, make music, make love) leave me feeling empty.
The truth is, I never dreamed we'd be here in this place.
