Thanks Uncle Pappy!

They make it a bit confusing to comment on federal actions and proposals....but here is where to see a list of actions that are accepting comments and a place to get started.

Happy commenting!!

Every now and again I like to look at a Media Bias Chart.

To see is it is bias....

(This one is from the readtangle.com website and cites: Ad Fontes Media.)

-Thoughts?

(Anyone know if Tangle or Isaac Saul-political reporter at Tangle-is on Bluesky?)

So fun! Thought I couldn't admire you any more than I did!

Been playing around with jewelry/sun catchers/yard art since covid. Hoping to move to wiring and hammering--.
This is a great online option I want to start soon: studio73designsnb.com/start-here-w...

Would love to see your class projects!

Adorable!

This was so fun...except for perhaps the realization of just how retro my photo actually is. ☺️

Anyone had to provide a signature for pro-democracy books bought & delivered from amazon?!

A friend bought Rachel Maddow's book & others on amazon & for the first time- had to sign for the delivery.

Amazon deliveries need signatures or just pro-democracy books??? Not sure if a concern or not....

You, Bernie, the band/poet and the early speakers---so inspirational!! Filled me with hope.

We are counting on you two... and ourselves. 👊🏼💙

AOC was fantastic. And seeing Bernie (well...hearing Bernie ☺️) was on my bucket list.

He said that today was his biggest rally so far. The crowd went wild over that.

The band and speakers that preceded them were also wonderful and inspiring.

Just got home from attending the Bernie/AOC rally in Denver.

So much fun.

Tens of thousands of people...all shapes, ages & sizes...working to defend democracy.

The people in the crowd, the early speakers, Bernie and AOC---all so inspiring. (Especially the folks that brought their little ones!)

Done. Thanks Jess.

Some of the comments and copies of the responses are terrific!

I tried Jess...but was denied access.

I really wanted them to know about all the rich white guys being the only ones being given DEI advantages at Trump University ....

Thanks Barb,
Usually buy books from abebooks or thriftbooks.
In looking at the bookshop.org website, it highlights books by Tulsi Gabbard and Candace Owens.
All for variety but wondered if this was typical for them to actively promote the far right writers...

Crazy stuff. The violent criminal BS is just another lie.

My friend took this at Petco (Co Blvd one) along w/ a video of several buses. Marc Sallinger- Rick's son- was also there filming. (Loved Rick and his son seems to carry the justice torch.)

So beautiful.

Am a wannabe metalsmith. Have been playing around with copper wire the past couple months and looking to do more of the metalsmithing. Intimidating.

In the middle of this. Thanks for the inspiration to maybe finish it up!

Love that!

Here's me...such adventures and fond memories...
February 7, 2025 at 1:47 AM
You will be wonderful! Bet you love it...

Went to my umpteenth protest today. Always get nervous; every time. And each & every time I end up being filled with hope, community & a renewed vigor to keep going.

Met many lovely folks at their first protest. Filled my heart.

ICE has been very active in Denver today. Hearing about multiple raids. 😨

This picture was taken within miles of my home. A local news station was also there filming.

Scary times.
