During my recent trip to New Orleans for the annual @pcaaca.bsky.social conference, I did some #ink and #watercolor cartoon sketches. I’m so grateful to have gotten back into my creative journey as an artist. Used a handcrafted pocket journal and my Art Toolkit.

I have long said this to students when teaching curatorial and museum studies classes: Lonnie Bunch is a badass.
NEW: Internal staff email from Smithsonian secretary Lonnie Bunch addressing Trump’s executive order.
“As always, our work will be shaped by the best scholarship, free of partisanship, to help the American public better understand our nation’s history, challenges and trumphs.”

Silas votes no on hail, especially as river of hail: a new discovery we made today. I couldn’t capture the impromptu flooding creek of the parking lot, but it was wild.

Sometimes you just want to lounge all day, or so says Silas. I agree kid. He’s so funny by the way. #dachshund

In case we’re keeping track in the 2025 hellscape, we’re saying empathy is evil; boycotts and free speech are illegal. The cognitive dissonance is wild right now.
After Tesla stock slid 15% on Monday, Trump declared that it’s now “illegal” to boycott Tesla and vowed to help his billionaire buddy Elon Musk.
Keep it up, America. The protest is working, and Elon is feeling the heat! 🔥

Donald Trump calls Tesla boycotts illegal
The president said protesters were trying to "illegally and collusively boycott Tesla" because Elon Musk is in his administration.

Silas had some good walks today, but he’s still annoyed that I’m doing homework for my drawing class instead of petting him.

Yesterday was a beautiful day in Terre Haute. Silas decided we needed to hang on the patio and then take a two mile hike.

Silas and I had a productive day with a few walks, some cleaning, some writing, some editing, and some painting, though Si argues we should have been outside longer. Blessed Imbolc!
