What a ridiculous statement.

Notus. The south wind. Bringer of storms. #photography #Canon #monochrome #photographersofbluesky #EastCoastKin

Gone down to the riverside #photography #Canon #monochrome #photographersofbluesky #EastCoastKin

we've broken protocol we've broken water's mucosal humankind brine seam patina binds old histories told story by story linkage to holey bones the articulations and movements we echo when wanting to be rain Persephone and Hades waiting by the sea river mouth hungry in crawl, claw and fire

dusty old glass passes itself off as the slowest tides meanwhile time hides knowing itself as a slow going

each story is born in a dream swallows dive for twos picking up our bones and tethers to heaven how they poem like blood they move, swift as wind soft trills begin and we find root enough to swim our soul a body of breath and what holds us lantern and journey sole to petal bent moonlight

‘It was as if they’d dipped themselves in magic waters’ How it felt when the most wonderful of happenings happened yesterday and I got to make collodion magic with the beautiful Ash Down the rabbit hole we went into the Wonderland of Alchemy. Level 5 stuff. Thank you Ash

Gavin Newsom continues to have ZERO fear of America's Hitler — and make no mistake, California having the fourth largest economy in the world is part of what gives authoritarian despot Trump something to think about as his criminal and lawless Nazification of America continues.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

and then the whole crowd moved as if one incessant tide someone said nearby someone said up front there is a virus spreading among us and it is incurable, causing us to run from ourselves as a wholly unholy inhumane how caged birds scream these days more than sing panic driving us home #emoetry

"Ultimately, it doesn’t really matter what the indictment says, because Halligan was going to indict Comey no matter what. That’s literally why she’s in the job — to bring the sort of sham charges that the previous US attorney, Eric Siebert, would not."

When the President uses federal law enforcement for his personal revenge, it puts all of us in danger.

OUR BATHROOM MIRRORS ARE VITAL TO OUR NATIONAL SECURITY

There's not enough money for Medicaid, Medicare, the ACA, food assistance, VA services or education - but there's 20 BILLION to bail out Argentina because their authoritarian president Milei is a pal of Trump's? What happened to America first?

Laura Loomer couldn't care less about the victims killed on 9/11. She uses them as pawns in a game to further her racist agenda. Laura should be ashamed, but she has no idea what shame is.

tea soaked slow beats a rainy season comes, leaves turning poems as they fall and are strewn about matted, scattered our arcanity was a language of insanity as determined by outside agency never seeing to smell the way like you do like you do when a poem spills from your eyes a bowsprit eat me

I’ve been haunted by a number of moments of late which have challenged my own gaze, of how I see what I photograph, coupled with Sally Mann’s clarion call to not keep taking the same picture over and over has taken me to a place of discomfort, and more importantly, growth (I hope). Rupa

"Last time I went after them, they gave me $16 Million Dollars. This one sounds even more lucrative.” Bowing down to a bully never works. And we can’t become numb to this corruption in plain sight.
