Odd, that stupid Donald Trump is in a snit with Canada over air quality when he has dismantled the EPA, promoted burning coal, and pulled out of climate change accords, guaranteeing air quality issues *worldwide* for not just this summer, but maybe FOREVER. What a colossal Idiot.

If this were just Ketanji Brown Jackson walking the halls of the Capitol, meeting with “nobody” the day before final rulings, Trump and Republicans would be going ballistic.

In his @status.news newsletter @oliverdarcy.bsky.social reports the White House got Getty to delete this photo (from a Thanksgiving White House PHOTO-OP STUNT) because Karoline Leavitt was offended It ran only in a Swiss newspaper. It would be a shame if you retweeted and Streisanded it

"Tzefardea Tzedek" (Frog of Righteousness) As soon as the Portland Frog became a meme, Jewish social media blew up with jokes about the 2nd Passover plague - tzefarde'a (frogs) - and the Rabbinical commentary around it. I knew I had to make a calligraphy piece encompassing all of it. (more in alt.)
Hebrew calligraphy in dark green stretches in lines across the image. Negative space makes room for a simple representation of an inflatable frog costume with a blue bandana. That shape consists of the English translation of the Hebrew, in a lighter green, and in much smaller text.
--
Famously, the Egyptian tyrant causes Egypt to be overrun with frogs because he refuses to free the Hebrew people, but there are additional details that make this a fun one to ponder. For one, the Hebrew says "the frog came up" - ONE frog - even though the rest of the time it says "frogs." So there are a few explanations rabbis have come up with to explain this. One is that a single frog multiplied to create swarms. A more creative explanation is that there was a singular giant frog who traveled and brought destruction. Jewish social media was sharing videos of the Portland Frog protester with the caption, "One Big Frog! One Big Frog!" Of course the frog protesters did multiply, and many were seen in crowds all over the world on "No Kings" Day. This calligraphic work takes the verses addressing the frog plague and combines them to form a simple rendering of the Portland Frog protester. The frog figure itself is made up of the English translations of the Hebrew around it. At the bottom left my signature is in the shape of a lily pad.

American Prospect (2/2) Musk could cover all the costs of the damage to L.A., and have $300 billion left. He could pay all the transitional housing expenses for residents who lost homes, share costs of compensating losses not covered by insurance, and pay for losses from depressed econ. activity.

From The American Prospect today (1/2) The estimated economic damage from lost homes in L.A. stands at a high of $150 billion. How much is $150 billion? One way to look at it is that it’s about one-third of Elon Musk’s fortune.

A visualization of the razor thin margin of this election. Of the 244+ million voting-eligible population: 31.5% voted for Trump 30.6% voted for Harris 37.7% did not vote Popular is not a word that would accurately describe Trump or the MAGA movement.
A pie chart showing the distribution of votes 38 percent of the voting population did not vote. 31 percent voted for Trump. 31 percent voted for Harris.

I want to give a shoutout to @netflix.com I’ve had to call them twice recently to sort out problems my mom had. Each time, I got a real human on the phone quickly, and they courteously solved the issue. We all expect to be treated like 💩 by companies these days and Netflix was the opposite.

I was at a talk for a new cookbook of recipes by immigrants. The author said the universal message was that the food and cooking are love. And then I thought about djt pushing fast food on rfk, food and actions that are the opposite of love. What if we all ate lovingly prepared food together?
