I am trying a new art form and for a first attempt I am stoked! This is a photo through my microscope of a slide I prepared. The light is polarized and I took multiple photos each with a different focal distance and then they all stack on one another. It’s a whole different world down there.

$Microscopic abstract art. Vivid polarized colors refracting within the sample I made for a slide. Fifteen photos with different focal points then are stacked upon one another. It’s a whole different world down there.$

My first attempt with polarized microscopic abstract photography with 15 photos, each the same image but with different focal distances to get the peaks and valleys of these crystals. Then used photoshop to merge into one photo. Not AI! Pretty darned excited how it turned out but I can improve. 🙂

Sugar crystals under polarized light under the microscope. Fifteen photos each taken with various focal distances so the peaks and valleys on the microscope slide droplet show through. Not AI.

Pretty excited to see my first attempt at glass jewelry turn out so nicely! A nice day.

I have started making glass fusion art. The first one is called The Dreamer. The second in the series—just finished yesterday—she is called The Rebel. The next one will be The Healer. #art

Nurses are pissed. This is on the front page of the nursing subreddit, along with many discussions about it on several other posts.

A red and black NURSES' STRIKE flyer with silhouetted people protesting on it. It says

So in a shutdown, Congress keeps getting paid on schedule because their salaries are protected by permanent law, while everyone else’s checks (military + civilian agencies) are paused until funding resumes.

Every year I try to do something that is outside of my comfort zone. Yesterday, I finished my super “yikes” thing for this year! Two days of yikes! Next year I will learn to land. Didn’t say necessarily learn to fly… but at least to land. #OutsideMyComfortZone #DidntSayFly

After finishing “The Dreamer” glass fusion piece, I am working on the “The Rebel”. The white is merely my paper pattern so it will be colorful. Art is my happy place and when cutting and grinding glass, it is impossible to think about the never ending dystopian shit show.

Putting together a glass art piece requires creating a pattern then choosing various glass colors and cutting and grinding them into puzzle pieces that fit together. Still working on cutting pieces. This glass fusion piece is the second of a series and is called The Rebel.

That, Disney, is a great way to lose $2 billion in market cap very quickly. This is why we boycott. The next company that wants to obey in advance has to think if they want to be boycotted into the ground. I've added all parties related to the Kimmel situation: open.substack.com/pub/psychope...

Stephen Colbert has never been democratically elected (at least not yet), but he’s been the kind of leader that democracy badly needs in order for it to survive. Integrity, compassion, fearlessness, intelligence, wit, humour, wisdom, honesty, morality, persuasiveness, kindness, humility, honour.

Soy en Guatemala aprender español por un mes. Hice reír mi maestra. Ella me preguntó cuando el subjetivo era “ser” y “de” - ¿de donde es tu presidente?” Yo respondi “El president es del infierno.” Ella respondí “El es un amigo de demonio.” Si, señora.

6 of 9 of our Supreme Court justices are Catholic. So now they could be in direct conflict with their own Church? Interesting times we live in. Never thought I’d be barracking for the Catholics. Bill Krystle on the side of Bernie & AOC then this. www.ncregister.com/blog/supreme...

A reminder: Both sheriffs and local police have the right to refuse ICE detainers. These requests are voluntary and not legally enforceable under federal law. Across the country, many sheriffs and police departments choose not to cooperate and that choice is fully within their legal rights.
