Jim Jordan shouldn’t be chair of House Judiciary committee, he should be a defendant in a criminal trial for attempting to overturn the 2020 election. Jan 6 committee notes Jordan was a "significant player" in Trump's coup.

I'm older so I remember things. Everything you see happening today should be understood this way:

The top tax rate used to be 90% in order to prevent the really rich from destroying democracy.

The corporate tax rate was 50% because corporations exist to serve society.

AND the inheritance tax was really high to keep family dynasties from gaining power over us.

Went for an early morning walk with my new camera today.

Fun task, explaining to non technical family members WTH happened.

“Well you see they banned us for breaking rules that they created a week after banning us for breaking those rules.”

“It's called MAS-TO-DON.”

"It's some type of elephant…”

My favorite part of Jurassic Park is when Rose is all "I'll never let go" and then she lets go of Jack's hand and T-Rex eats him

Soap operas led me to believe amnesia and evil twins would be more of a problem. Kind of a let down.

You'd think that having 'pink' in their name would have given it all away years ago! 😂

Pink Floyd fans are amused that the anti-woke mob are cancelling the band over the Dark Side Of The Moon ‘rainbow’ https://l.smartnews.com/b6FCC/GoKufm

Today is freezing 🥶 good day to stay snuggled up in a blanket & snoozle

Flower of the very showy California guava, growing at public access garden at STEM in Mission Bay, San Francisco 04.22. If you go to an event at Chase Center, a half block south on Terry Francois brings you to the staircase & a bit further south to the ramp up to their wonderful vegetable and fruit garden. A pure joy in the city. #JanuaryJoy, #flowers, #Bayarea, #GardeningMastodon

Sometimes it doesn't work out. Tried to do an E-girl Velma, with piercings and tattoos, but I couldn't make it work. So posting this one, to let it go and move on.

Our culture constantly pushes the lie that your value as a human being comes from what you do or produce or offer to others.

That's garbage.

You matter no matter what.

You are sacred just for being.

Shabbat Shalom.

@ScottSoCal thanks. One of my fave meals ... and vegan too!

Is DeSantis a Fascist?

You Bet He Is !!!

Eggplant, chickpea, onion, and tomato bake/stew? It's a lebanese dish...

I think we've all done things in our "youth" we wish we hadn't. I know in my early military career I did some spectacularly craptastic stuff I wouldn't mind taking back but don't carry guilt over them, I just vowed to do better.

One thing I still regret, despite being forgiven years later by the soldier involved, was my failure to stand up to the powers that be and be strong in the moment.

#BigQuestionOfTheDay: Do you feel guilt about something you did/didn't do or just live in the moment?

Next week I will be interviewing Universeodon Admin @supernovae on the God Pod and I couldn’t be more excited! If you have anything you want me to ask him, let Me know!

I don't do much in oils - never liked the smell 🎨
