“The heart, the precious porcelain of human clay.” ~ George Gordon Byron (1788-1824) #Photography, vintage playing card.

When we pass, A World passes too Shoulders of Mountains Stooped, peaks Fall to riverbeds The open ocean Turns on its belly Capsizing voyagers The stars fall As tears Into the sink holes That swirl across The chaos on the sea As I pass Nobody sees The world That passes With me #vss365

To them hypocrisy is a demonstration of power: "I can lie openly and you can't do anything about it. I can do all these things that I say YOU are not allowed to do, because I have power. If you don't do the same as me when you are in power that's not a sign of principles, but of weakness."

Trump plan is to grab as much loot from U.S. and world as quickly as he can and grab as much power and inflict as much terror as he can to destroy fair elections and solidify his power in the U.S. I’m just disgusted that so many are so shallow as to directly participate in the fleecing of America.

I want to know exactly WTF this is supposed to mean and depict!! This is ominous and reminds me of some type of Nazi picture where he’s overseeing people being herded into trains or watching his war games unfold. This is not a good thing for anyone. This means something bad for the world.

#ColorfulMonday This is "Posh Penelope" by Cindy McGerry. She saw this design at a quilt show and purchased a Quick Curve Ruller ASAP. Then Cindy was on her own learning curve! Not only is this gorgeous, but she used scraps from her stash! I'd like to pick through her stash.

“Of the 5786 depictions identified across 113 European Palaeolithic caves, only 0.07% featured plants. Animals and abstract symbols appeared more frequently, 53.7% and 43.3% respectively.” We look at the past not only through our own biases but through earlier peoples', too doi.org/10.1002/ppp3...

"To me, it was shocking that a government of men could look with such extreme contempt on a movement that was asking nothing except such a simple little thing as the right to vote." -- Alice Paul, born #OTD 1885
