Writer, editor, iPhonographer (sorry).I may occasionally promote my book or someone else's book. But promotion is really not my thing. Just because I follow you, don't assume I want a conversation with you. NO DMs!!!!!!!!!

For the record, don't expect a follow-back if your feed shows fewer than two original posts--I don't know you. Don't go the DM route--immediately suspicious. If your feed is more than 40% political, I'm not interested. I don't give a fig about crypto.

In what alternate universe is it acceptable to invite a former Al-Qaeda commander to the White House the day before we honor our Veterans?
Are we supposed to forget that 30 U.S. military personnel died at the hands of Al-Qaeda?

Back home after another fantastic photography trip to #Iceland (my 34th!).
Stopped along the south coast yesterday on my way back - these river estuaries are just incredible.

I always think about my favorite poet on Veteran’s Day—Wilfred Owen, a soldier who died in combat, who saw terrible things & transformed them into urgent, horrific, & beautiful words.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

What an amazing story of perseverance. First thing I thought upon seeing the image was, how the h did he get this shot? Even in 1986 no one could have been small enough to fit on the inside of that railing. 😄

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.
The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.
