Indiana, if for no other reason than to counterbalance the "Speedway Slammer" bullshit. I don't even like the Indy 500, but I dislike trying to appropriate Speedway for their fascist nonsense.

There's a Politico (lol) piece entirely about how Republicans' hope right now is that the polls are all way off and they only get a MILD wipeout and first of all it's full of a bunch of nonsense but the best part is how it ends on this incredible bit:

"The strategist also noted that the polling right now reflects a change in the electorate as profound as those seen after Watergate and 9/11.

“It would be so historically unprecedented you’d have to presuppose we’re staring down the barrel of a generational national trauma that no one is aware of,” the strategist said."

Gyo-san’s Nyanko-sensei. Japan. Photography by Katsu. This scene highlights the famous maneki-neko shrine display at Gōtokuji Temple (often referred to as "Gyo-san's" temple site in regional lore) in Setagaya, Tokyo.

Captured by photographer Katsu, this low-angle photograph presents a sea of white beckoning cat figures (maneki-neko) stacked along shrine shelves beneath a blazing canopy of autumn maples (momiji). The pristine white porcelain figurines, detailed with red-lined ears, red collars, small gold bells, and black eyes, beckon with raised right paws in a collective gesture of good fortune. Above them, a mature maple tree stretches its sprawling branches across the frame, its leaves transformed into brilliant hues of crimson, vermilion, and warm amber gold that glow in the sunlight.
This scene highlights the famous maneki-neko shrine display at Gōtokuji Temple (often referred to as "Gyo-san's" temple site in regional lore) in Setagaya, Tokyo. According to temple legend, a white cat belonging to the chief priest beckoned Ii Naosuke (or Ii Naotaka, Lord of the Hikone Domain) under a tree to shelter during a sudden thunderstorm. Moments later, lightning struck the tree, sparing the feudal lord's life. Grateful for the divine intervention, the Ii clan adopted Gōtokuji as their patron temple.

Visitors and devotees dedicate these white maneki-neko figures to express gratitude when their prayers are answered.

A painting of a forest, as seen from above and a distance. The forest has many different kinds of trees in it, and the leaves are all different colors (green, gold, red, etc.) In the foreground, we can just see a river and its bank. The forest is not just full of trees, but there are birds (both along the riverbank and in the trees), deer, a bear, squirrels, a fox, a human resting under a tree close to the bottom of the painting, and an angel, flying close to the top. The sky above is gold, and full of swirling cirrus clouds.

I honestly think the way to grab the left edge of the Overton window and pull it to a more reasonable place is for politicians to not only take positions like this and then insist that they are a moderate and these are moderate positions. Say it over and over until the media parrots it.

A #painting from the northwest corner of Ireland "Derryreel 1" came from a mythical time when I lived with a little dog in a little cottage where we would look out at the Atlantic every day. A land of old men with dogs; I was happy. This was a scene we walked past most days. #SpéirGhorm #ArtYear

Landscape format on matboard in heavily textured acrylics showing multiple colours through the broken application, and with main areas having broken dark rough outlines. A small white featureless cottage with navy roof is viewed from diagonally across two fields. In the foreground is a stone wall running across the bottom and the corner of a yellow field with red, black and white messy paint inside, with a long stone wall coming from the bottom left corner diagonally across to half way up the picture on the right edge. On the other side of that long wall is a long lime green field parallel and leading to the cottage just right of centre. Behind the cottage is a row of dark green bushes and trees, then a long low orange hill, before a blue-green hill, a small brown hill to the right, and then three multiple-peaked mountains of fading blues one behind the other with the most to the right being the furthest away. A short distance from the cottage by the right edge is the gable end of a grey outbuilding or other cottage just inside the long diagonal stone wall. The painting was photographed before I added my signature.

Charcoal pencils are wood wrapped around charcoal. Charcoal is carbonized wood. Wood is made from trees, as is paper. Therefore a charcoal sketch of a tree is a dead tree put on another dead tree while being held by a third dead tree.
