Just found out that apparently last year Barenaked Ladies put out a song about cancel culture and I'm losing my mind. This song and video are both so hilariously ass.

Miss you so much, Dad!🥹. It’s not your birthday or Father’s Day, but I miss our talks as I try as a Progressive Activist to focus on “WWJD?” as you would every day. Need your love and caring today!

Reading Heather Cox Richardson’s book “Democracy Awakening” right now-excellent book!
The older I get, the more convinced I become that it's never really been about "right vs left", "Dem vs GOP", or even "Haves vs Have-Nots".

It's just those who are capable of empathy vs those who are not. All the rest stems from that.

Blaming #ATC - or the #FAA - for #pilot error is like blaming a properly functioning stop light for the driver who runs it.

Y'all have no idea how hard Controllers work. None. They are some of the most skilled people on this planet doing a job most of us would CRUMBLE under.

“Being Proactive”- more cognitively focused now than during Trump’s first term. I run a small zoom group that I hope will grow and we share resources with each other. Boycotting Meta, Amazon, and other businesses has been easier than I thought it would be. Litigation, Democratic state government
Bluesky buddies, I have a question for you:

Are you hopeful?

With all we face right now - climate change, Trump, Starmer, the economy, AI, propaganda, war & oligarchy.

Are you hopeful that things will change for the better? And what fires your hope?

This is so fucking tragic. Today Europe is completely united behind Ukraine and the cause of freedom.

Meanwhile the United States is sitting this one out along with Russia and Iran. Make it make sense.

“Kohiki” pottery-“Akira Satake Kohiki technique- (粉引)Enhancing surface by brushing white porcelain slip onto a dark clay body, then stretching the clay to crack and distort the brush marks. It’s completely different from traditional kohiki.” (Accessed on akirasatake.com on 3/1/25.)

Will get back to pottering soon, I hope! 😊. Will be taking an online kurinuki class with Akira Satake of Asheville, NC (lost his studio in the hurricane) in April-so looking forward to it!
See akirasatake.com for workshops and kiln sales-gorgeous Japanese-style pottery!
