Unbearably violent images from Downtown Chicago where a classical music concert was played on the Chicago River. This is too elegant and magical to be seen.

Van Orden is a truly horrible being. A vote for Rebecca Cooke is a vote for sanity and decency.

AQS needs to know that this censorship is unacceptable.
Fuck AQS.
If you want to complain, which I suggest you do, call American Quilter's Society: 1-800-626-5420, 270-898-7903. You can also mention @AQSonline on FB.

Don't let the NYTimes lie to you! My best friend, who lives two blocks away, just sent me lots of video & still photos of image of a huge moving crowd of #NoKings protesters in St. Paul, Minnesota. You can see the state Capitol in the background.
Loud sounds of cars on I-94 honking in support.

America has never been broke. It’s just violently anti-poor. Troops in LA cost $134M — the price of 44 million school lunches.
But sure, let’s keep pretending the issue is lazy parents and not a government that eats kids for breakfast.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

I open my Etsy shop for my limited edition signed art prints just 2-3 times a year.
I design my botanical photos using recent research so they dial down the fight or flight response in your brain when you look at them.
I'll be closing my shop again on Sunday evening:
