Sometimes the most healing thing we can do is remind ourselves — other people feel this too. – Andrea Gibson 8.13.75 - 7.14.25

Keep sharing the truth.

Last coffee of the day. Relaxing. #coffeetime

Seen today in Philly. #resist #photography

I took out this wonderful little book made by Fabriano and purchased in Paris. I’m planning to fill the book with dots. Gonna see what process with spontaneous rhythm gives me. Making marks over time becomes a journey in the making and the viewer experience. #art #artistbooks #photography

With all the darkness swirling around us I’m gonna have a day of art. Taking a break from the insanity is essential. I’ll share some beautiful, joyful things. Take time to see the beauty in everyday things.

The president of the United States is extorting the Federal Reserve Board Chairman by threatening criminal prosecution if he doesn't lower interest rates. DOJ is compromised, legacy media is cowed and Big Law is AWOL. As I wrote last year: "We are on our own."

First cup of the day. I love drinking from this oatmeal stoneware. The way it sits in my hands, the proportions, the profile and the aroma. It was a gift from my mom. She embraced beauty is simple things. Makes me think of her everyday. LOVE. #photography #coffeetime

NEWS: In a heartbreaking video, after ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, a woman who was in the same SUV cries out: “They killed my wife. I don’t know what to do." “We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head,” the distraught woman sobs. www.advocate.com/news/minneso...

Kentucky feeling the brunt of the guy they voted for.

ICE just murdered a U.S. citizen. This violence is the direct result of racist rhetoric coming from Donald Trump and his allies. This is dangerous state-sanctioned violence. We will not stay silent while unqualified masked federal agents terrorize our communities.

Homeland security lies. All the time. This is absolutely vile and I'm no searching for where there will be protests in Philly. #murder

Redacted Trump

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans. 🧵 1 of 9

Two plein air pastel drawings in their home in Chicago. Love these collectors. Hipstamatic photo. #drawings

Yesterday on my walk in the neighborhood. Crazy rain, temperatures, wind and clouds. #walkphiladelphia #photography

This is what they released. Lots of this.

DOJ broke the law today by refusing to produce all the Epstein files. It also broke the law by redacting information other than to protect victims. Yet, the corporate media is acting that DOJ did us a huge favor. Now, more than ever, help build independent, pro-democracy media. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0
