Stop talking about the republicans of yesterday as if they weren't working to bring about the republicans of today. This is a single uninterrupted project.

TN GOP just expelled Rep Justin Jones for peacefully demanding gun reform.

Jones reminded that the GOP refused to expel Republicans who molested children, abused women, are under federal investigation, & urinated in the chamber. GOP expelled him anyway.

The danger is beyond MAGA expelling Democrats for the "crime" of demanding accountability for gun violence. It's that if this injustice goes unchecked, MAGAs nationwide will do the exact same. This is how fascism & single party rule takes hold.

I'm sure they saw that as a bonus. It's what they're trying to do, with voter suppression.

DeSantis needs to go. This story needs to be heard and spread.

Heart beating with excitement. Tomorrow I'll be filming a music video I've been preparing to for months. Everything's booked, everyone's ready. It's funny how I feel 'small' when I need to be seen as 'big', but I never let my social anxiety get the best of me. I get to create with others rarely but when I do, it makes all of my struggles seem so... Redundant.

We designed this patch around my song Abnormal about a ladybug protecting a small abnormal flower from human greed and climate change.

The song isn't out yet but the patches are available on Etsy:)

Hold it right there ... don't move.

So, let's just pretend that this female ruby-throated hummingbird stopped to pose for me.

I wanted a close up of the female with wings forward so that you can get a good look at emerald plumage. I think that the way they seem to glow in the sunlight is cool. They're pretty small so it's hard to get a good close up.

p.s. Please don't harass artists who have hashtag lists on the end of their posts. Many are low income people dependent on selling art, and need to use multiple variant tags simply to be seen at all.

It isn't spamming, it's just the consequence of an exact-tag-only search system.

This isn't Twitter, there is no general text search by which they might be otherwise discovered.

A better picture of my roommate Sherbert. She laid a second egg today.

I got a new phone. One of the features is a camera that can zoom in and take high resolution photos only 3cm away from the subject. This has made it much easier to see how filthy my keyboard is.

@ScottSoCal @bkm I love that movie, I swear, Auntie Mame is my spirit animal! This is probably one of my favorite lines.

β€œPatrick won't allow you to settle him down in some dry-veined, restricted community, make him an Aryan from Darien and marry him off to a girl with braces on her brains.”

@bkm

I learned everything useful in my life watching Rosalind Russell in Auntie Mame. Including how to pronounce Darien.
"Books are awfully decorative, don't you think?"

Interesting factoid....

Some of the real Cannonball Runs in the 70s ORIGINATED from Darien, CT.

If you know, you know.

If you don't, try pronouncing Dah-Rienne with your teeth closed while having afternoon tea. It'll give you an idea

I just watched Smokey and the Bandit.

People were easily entertained in the 70s.
