The era we are living in offers too many illustrations of greed, narcissism, and hatefulness. But I still believe we can recommit ourselves to serving the common good of all Americans. [Artwork by Jennifer Bloomer]

A quite large oil on canvas portrait of Lorna from 1991. This one is stored away rolled up with other canvases but I just spotted a photo of it on my camera rolll. She was a frequent and very patient sitter for portraits when she lived nearby and has several of them (more available!)

Disgusted to hear of the targeted shooting of National Guard members in DC today. All Americans should unite in condemning and rejecting this violence. Sending prayers to these victims and their families, and thankful to the responders who acted so quickly.

With all our current understanding of climate change, the drivers & corporate unaccountability, surely it is time to make a distinction between ‘sovereign’ and ‘global’ regulatory use rights & responsibilities?
Now, remind me again that non-Americans should mind their own business.

Side note I forgot to add:
Bluesky is one of the only places where strangers actually reply thoughtfully.

Not bots... not bait... just people.

Have you noticed that too? :)

Bluesky just passed 40 million users... and you probably didn't hear a thing.

Why?

Because this isn’t just another social network.

It's something bigger.

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.

The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.

Where is the MAHA outcry?
