Donald Trump wants to completely rebuild the crumbling Alcatraz as a prison, despite it making $60 million a year as a museum.
Anyone who still thinks he’s a good businessman also admires Casey Anthony’s abilities as a babysitter.

Creativity is like a houseplant, not an endless well. You need to seek out sunlight, water, and nutrients in art, shows, music, experiences, and more to tend to it. And just like plants it has its dormant and active periods and you may not seem improvement for some time.

Poem from Mary Oliver that carries poignant, layered meaning these days:
Why do people keep asking to see
God's identity papers
when the darkness opening into morning
is more than enough?
Certainly any god might turn away in disgust.

Once to every man and nation
Comes the moment to decide,
In the strife of truth with falsehood,
For the good or evil side;
Some great cause, God's new Messiah,
Offering each the bloom or blight,
And the choice goes by forever
Twixt that darkness and that light.
- James Russell Lowell

The great enemy of freedom is the alignment of political power with wealth. This alignment destroys the commonwealth - that is, the natural wealth of...household, neighborhood and community - and so destroys democracy, of which the commonwealth is the foundation and practical means.
