RIP Ozzy Osbourne. Glad he was able to have one final concert that celebrated his life and work. A true legend and rock god has been lost. Now in color👇👇👇

I was editing some photos from last Saturday. I hadn't noticed that this photo captured the crescent moon. Zoom in on the bottom right. So cool!

One of my favorite annual @democracynow.org traditions is that we always play this video of James Earl Jones reading Frederick Douglass's speech "What to the Slave is the 4th of July?"

If you've never read or heard the speech, it's well worth your time.
