Ride the blue wave, friends. Enjoy tonight. <3

Today is decision day. I will be anxiously awaiting victories for Mamdani and Prop 50, but also my local school district funding referendum. Indiana is defunding public education and I hope my community chooses to support our schools.

I took this in Fall of 2020. COVID times. I was on a walk with my daughter who noticed this gorgeous red-tailed hawk just above us in low branches. #BlueSkyArtShow #Autumn #photography #IndianaDunes

My country road. I feel like this photo captures a summer and fall mashup. #BlueSkyArtShow #Autumn #photography #landscape

#BlueSkyArtShow #inside #photography I took this shot in Plant Hall at the University of Tampa.

Take a picture of yourself at the No Kings rally. Print it. Put it in a frame. Your grandchildren will speak about you for generations to come. You took a stand against fascism. You stood up for democracy. 

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Kristi Noem is mad they wouldn’t let her in to use the restroom in Illinois today.

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality. I don't know how to yell any louder.

Happy #BlueSkyMonday to all who celebrate. This is Garlic Island, located on Lake Winnebago in Oshkosh, WI #photography #summertime

When freedom is under fire you can count on me to ramble and mutter incoherently.

The amount of shit I got for this segment at the time was astronomical, and it was all from people who now stalk CVS employees to get them fired for insufficient online sadness. Cheering on political violence is both evil and not new, an outgrowth of an internet intentionally dismantled years ago.

It truly cannot be restated enough that earlier this year Trump pardoned everyone involved with J6, the largest event of political violence in the US in my lifetime. They have absolutely no credibility here and deserve to be confronted with this fact whenever they're in public.

I gave my pottery studio a redo this summer. It was ugly, outdated and cluttered. Now it’s calming and inspiring. #home #BlueSkyArtShow #pottery #art #create

WE ARE NOT THE SAME! Stephen Miller said that Kirk's last message to him was a call to dismantle radical left organizations fomenting violence across the US and he will make this happen in Kirk's name. Right extremists were responsible for 75% of all extremist murders in the US from 2013 till now. 🤨

The real issue isn’t left vs right. It’s not white vs black. It’s not citizen vs immigrant. It’s not gay vs straight. The real issue is that a lot of powerful people have a vested interest — and a lot of money invested — in dividing us, and it’s working.

Yes, 100% THIS

I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable

CHICAGO…

I just saw someone refer to rfk jr as microwaved mel gibson & i can’t unsee it.

I'm wondering: in 2028, when trump tries to put himself on the ballot for a third term, whether states are prepared to keep him off the ballot and what the Supreme Court will do. I think it's pretty clear cut, but I thought that about immunity, Dobbs, and section 3 of the 14th Amendment, too.

This is what the #Chicago #skyline looks like from where I live. Concerning news coming this week with the threats of the National Guard to be deployed here. Fuck fascism. #BlueSkyArtShow #photography

I’m going to be pressing all of the people who I know that did not vote in the last election for the next 3 years. Apathy no more!

Detainees at Florida’s “Alligator Alcatraz” are on a hunger strike over what they call inhumane, dangerous conditions. Some haven’t eaten in 10 days. One of them, Pedro Hernández, was hospitalized and still refuses food until they are treated with dignity.

Luna loves to sprint up the apple tree, and spy out of the leafy enclosure. Mini black panther. 6 years ago, we watched her get dumped on a country road on a cold day in February. She waited by the roadside for them to return for more than a day while we tried catching her. #Caturday

ProPublica spoke to about 150 people who had lived in homeless encampments when cities cleared them out in “sweeps.” We distributed notecards so people could tell us about the toll in their own words. ➡️ This is what they wrote: projects.propublica.org/impact-of-ho...

In these times, I find it difficult to #imagine a way out. We can though, because light ends darkness. #Alternating #BlueSkyArtShow #StrawberryFields #CentralPark #NYC

#BlueSkyArtShow This is “Diamondhead” and one of her babies. She’s visited our yard for a number of years. Before her, we had “Mama Whitesides”. We look for the next generation to see who has the gene for white markings (notice the fawns front lower legs and, a patch on the head). #SummerDaze
