Using the classic mob metaphor, tying Ms. Tafoya to Mr. Trump is like weighting her down with concrete shoes and pitching her into the East River.

Ha! Opaque is fog as obstruction; translucent is fog as nuance. 😆🍻

A minimalist, atmospheric photograph of a lake shrouded in deep, opaque fog in cool blue and slate grey tones. Near the center-left, a soft, dark mass representing a tree-lined island is barely discernible through the thick mist, with its shadowy form mirrored in the still water. Horizons and tree lines are nearly lost in the ambient haze, creating a quiet, monochromatic mood.

📱 | Minneapolis, Minnesota (2026) Twilight seen through a curved airplane window. A horizon alive with a gradient of Cadmium Yellow, Cadmium Orange, and Alizarin Crimson along a streak of clouds, transitioning into cool Paynes Gray, Indigo, and a muted Prussian Blue sky. #photography

A twilight view framed through a curved airplane window, where the interior cabin wall is bathed in cool Ultramarine Blue and Cobalt Blue LED lighting. Outside, the distant horizon glows with a vivid gradient of Cadmium Yellow, Cadmium Orange, and Alizarin Crimson along a low streak of clouds, transitioning upward into cool Paynes Gray, Indigo, and muted Prussian Blue sky. Below, the dark, ivory-black earth is scattered with pinpricks of warm Naples Yellow and Zinc White city lights, with a small lake reflecting the cool sky.

A low-angle perspective looking upward from a subterranean egress window well. In the immediate foreground, a row of potted green plants—including terra cotta and patterned ceramic planters—lines the ledge under a clear window cover. Behind them, the light gray horizontal siding of a neighboring building stretches upward, featuring a narrow rectangular double-hung window framing a reflection of blue sky and light-colored siding. Dried stems stick up along the wall base.

Defense wins championships, but can three field goals a week win a Super Bowl? Reichard isn't only the kicker, he's the entire fantasy roster ffs.

📱 | Saint Paul, Minnesota (2026) Plentiful harvest (lumpy pumpkin edition) #urbanlandscape #photography

Square photograph made from a ground-level perspective, centering an enormous, organically shaped pumpkin resting on a dirt boulevard patch. The lumpy gourd sits in the foreground, anchoring a view that looks up toward a tree-lined neighborhood sidewalk, stone retaining walls, blooming sunflowers, and multi-story historic homes beneath a blue, cloud-splotched sky. Wide-angle distortion lends a playful, surreal scale contrast that makes the heft of the pumpkin dominate the scene.

Square photograph looking upward along the textured stucco facade of the St. Paul Curling Club building under a clear blue sky. Dark wood-framed multi-pane windows recede along the right side, balanced by an ornate wall motif, dark roof rafter tails, a white club flag, and a red-and-white sign projecting over an arched entry on the left.
