💚 Your artist and designer friends probably aren't as full of themselves as you think.

Please remember: they share their work and accomplishments all the time as a matter of survival. No one else will be their hype man.

That grant? It's the only thing keeping them going during these slow months.

This flashy opportunity? They have been trying to make it happen for a year with only hope to keep them going and it's finally happening!

That exhibit? It's the only one they got into out of the 15 they submitted for.

That new painting they posted? They kinda need it to sell so they can pay the rent next month.

So be kind in your thoughts. Imagine if your job required social media presence on four platforms to make sure ends meet.

And if you see your friends or acquaintances post art that you like, please share it! It can make all the difference sometimes.

💚

I live in the most rural part of Arkansas. My state highway is the least traveled. And yet--AND YET--there is a Flock camera along it. And within ten miles, two more! It really creeps me out!

Really impressed with James Russell, who is running for Congress in Arkansas' Fourth District. He talked of universal health care, ethics in Congress, term limits, and encouraged us to get his email/phone number to reach out to him for questions.

On Father's Day, I think of my dad. The narcissist who lied to everyone, stole from his family, stole my innocence and trust. Who went on to destroy other wives, and other daughters. On Father's Day I think of my stepdad, who treated me as his own, was helpful and kind.

YouGov survey asked me today if I thought Congress should get involved in curtailing 45's ability to declare war. I told them it is their Constitutional duty, and that 45 should be put in his place. I would have said "jail", but I didn't think about it until the survey was done.

It pays to regularly give treats to pets. My neighbor has a dog with a tendency to run off and be gone for several days. She ran off again today. I offered to help look for her. I went into the grass under the power line and called "TREAT!" She soon came bounding up!

The rich, via AI, are making ordinary people obsolete. I think their goal is to get rid of as many poor and middle class folks as possible so they can grab all the wealth of the nation for themselves.

You realize the only reason the regime has been able to get away with their lawless grifting is the support of their cronies in Congress, who are paid for by the oligarchs. Remember in November.

Country life. My neighbors no longer let their chickens free range. Seems the chickens got into their grilling equipment and also some new flowers they'd gotten and made a mess! I'll miss having them come on my porch and lay eggs.

Only in the country--my neighbor's free range chickens have been walking up my ramp to my porch. This morning I found half a dozen eggs they'd laid! My neighbor will pick up the eggs when he gets home from work. I don't eat eggs.

When I was a kid, I was teased for being fat. Not only by kids, but my family, including my mother. I'm now at the ideal weight for my height--yet still think of myself as "fat". Friend was a slow reader and still thinks he's "dumb" even though he's successful. What you are told sticks with you.

A problem you only get when you live in a rural area: My neighbor's free range chickens have discovered my porch, which they can easily get to via my ramp. Apparently there are bugs there, so I'm letting them do their thing.
