ICE pepper-sprayed this 1-year-old girl.
Once at the hospital, the doctor had to call in a poison control specialist.
They had never seen anyone that young pepper sprayed.
Another horrific story.

A quiet moment with the moon, suspended alone in the night sky—no foreground, no distractions, just texture and light.
Photography is about perspective — and I’m glad you’re part of this one.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Watercolour painting in a woodland, with an interesting wooden footbridge over a stream. This is the second version: I gave the first version to the person who owned these grounds but she has since moved. I hope it's a nice reminder for her.

As it turns out, the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun *isn’t* a good guy with a gun—it can be a good guy *without* a gun. Just another NRA lie.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Merry Bond-Mas! We're back with Dalton's second film.
License to Kill (1989)
Bond operates in a rogue mission to bring down a drug cartel leader who killed someone close to him. Carey Lowell and Benicio del Toro are also stars, Lowell being a unique and awesome Bond girl.
Who else loves this one?
