This is a formal portrait of the surviving Apollo astronauts. That's Buzz Aldrin in the silver tux. I have to imagine the conversation went like this:

ALDRIN: Ok, let's get started
PHOTOGRAPH: Mr. Aldrin, you are aware that this is a formal portrait?
BA: I'm not an idiot son.
PG: Well your suit-
BA: Son, have you been to the moon?
PG: No sir.
BA: Well I have. The moon. The motherlovin' moon. In a tin can run by a calculator and powered by a can of sterno. (1/)

This is the kind of librarian I work to be every day. From the Unshelved comic strip.

“Yeah, you’re a little warm. Why don’t you go lie down and I’ll make you some soup.”

O.k. Look, the #GOP are an existential threat to #america and the world.
That being said, “know yourself & know your opponent”
This cheering the low #unemployment rate like #Biden did magic is ridiculous. Over 1 million people died from #covid & ALSO THIS👇
“Some experts estimate 2 to 4 million U.S. employees are out of the workforce because of long-term effects of #COVID-19.”

Folks in Blue States who think abortion rights is only an issue for the rest of us are going to realize real quick that abortion rights is a 50-state issue as long as Republicans control the courts.

Fetterman, Recovering After Stroke, Labors to Adjust to Life in the Senate https://nyti.ms/3YkWmmp

"At Senator John Fetterman’s desk in the Senate chamber, there is a newly installed monitor that rises or lowers, depending on whether he sits or stands, and provides closed captioning so he can follow the proceedings. At the center dais, a custom desk stand has been built to accommodate the same technology for when he takes his shifts presiding over the Senate."

This day in history. 1846. Mormon leader Brigham Young led his followers into the west where a man was free to believe any bogus nutbaggery he so chose.

I think bigots and racists are angry all the time because being a bigot or a racist is just a miserable experience.

Well hello there, little Boreal Owl. #SuperbOwl #SuperbOwls #Owls

Holy crap. The New York Times published an unabashed, non-both-sidesing article arguing for trans rights, and equating them to Black rights, by a Black author?

Did like... the editor in chief have a stroke, and they slipped this by when nobody was looking?

Friday night nirvana coming right up, nice tea time power nap first, then I'll have a nice relaxing potter on with some things. We live in new times now, with a lot more pressure, so if you can get to that relaxation nirvana point, you've done well.

-stay blessed folks and have a jolly nice weekend . .

It was a masterclass in how to outmaneuver and then box in your opponents. And we are all here for it. Well done, Joe Biden. Well done. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/never-underestimate-joe-biden-again?sd=pf

Going to add these to my zine, Calligraphic Space 5.
