I hope you realize you all just lost the midterms. None of us will vote for you as the lesser evil when all you do is capitulate and fold.

I’m lucky I get to see this just about every morning.

Oh that’s stunning! They’re beautiful birds as long as you don’t hear them squawking.

Weird! I’ve never served on a jury because they always settle or take a plea before I get to jury selection.

Sounds like a lovely fall morning

It’s foggy most mornings here. We have a cogeneration plant at the mill that heats steam for power, so it pumps lots of extra moisture into the air. Plus our streams and rivers.

It does. That fire opened my eyes to the way FEMA and state government is just not set up to help rural areas recover.

It’s systemically designed to favor urban disasters.

(And also how much of an empty, phony greaseball Newsom is. )

Those look super cute! I could never lead them, but I do enjoy going to the occasional one here and there. Both of our local instructors are teachers, too.

I don’t like it either. 🫣 But I stayed in my bubble with my friends and the format didn’t require small talk or mingling.

Happy Birthday! I hope it’s wonderful

Here’s the link to the teacher/ artist’s website. I am lucky enough to see her murals all over town: hollyhoxpainting.com/pages/murals

I did. A group of 25 or so people painting wasn’t too bad or too crowded. Plus it raised money for high school kids traveling next year.

You all caved. Resign

Yep. The profit motive can only ever result in people being denied needed care.
November 10, 2025 at 3:19 PM
And yes, I know they’d bitch about having to pay taxes for something they don’t use, too.

Have you tried Painting with Jane? I loved her early stuff.
November 10, 2025 at 3:17 AM
I’m usually more comfortable with photography, too.
November 10, 2025 at 3:16 AM
Thanks! I normally hate the trees I paint, but I like these.
