In a time where a lot of people barely even read the headline, words matter. Framing matters. I'm not a fan of intellectual dishonesty. It's important to note the mechanisms at work in this situation, not oversimplify what happened to ignite your base. YMMV. I stand by my comment.

Happy Thanksgiving from Grace (dog) and Tripp (cat).

My image, "Rings of Time", took 3rd place in photography at the annual Keller's Got Talent local art show. 1st time I've put any of my photography out there, so I'm pretty happy. The show runs through 11/20 at Keller Town Hall, Keller, TX. Stop by if you're in the area & see all of the local talent!

Sad to have missed being at a No Kings rally, but happy for Grace to have repped both the mastiff breed & Keller at the 6th AKC Fast CAT Invitational in Wilmington, OH last week. She's gotten older, heavier, & slower (haven't we all!) but still loves to chase that "bunny". (Trump sucks. Fuck ICE.)
A wide banner "O SO FAST in OHiO" running from the front left corner of the frame diagonally to the middle. A smaller banner "City of Keller" is suspended under its far half. A man and woman stand at the end of the banner, with a fawn mastiff dog sitting in front of them, looking toward the camera.A fawn mastiff dog with black mask lies crosswise on a bed facing to the left, head turned toward the camera. A green banner with white trees & lettering "City of Keller" hangs behind her. Six rosette ribbons are draped over the front of the bed in front of the dog, five to the right are light blue, the leftmost is much larger and is black with blue and green.

Had a great time at Pride Kel-So yesterday despite a Southlake cop herding me away from the protester with the bullhorn. Hey, I was only trying to tell him about the mental health professionals who could help him with his obsession over other people's genitals & sexual activities.

Damnit! I can't find my ANTIFA membership card! Anybody know how I can get a replacement?
Screen shot of a post by our idiot, fascist president, Trump, from his Truth Social site that says, "I am pleased to inform our many U.S.A. Patriots that I am designating ANTIFA, A SICK, DANGEROUS, RADICAL LEFT DISASTER, AS A MAJOR TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. I will also be strongly recommending that those funding ANTIFA be thoroughly investigated in accordance with the highest legal standards and practices. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"

In other news, I finally had several of my photographs printed and I've entered them in the annual community art show in my city: Keller's Got Talent. The show isn't until October, but I didn't know what lead times for all of this would be. First time showing - I'm excited!
Three large photographs with white borders in simple black frames. From left to right: a clock face emerging from the top of a tree stump, an abstract of a tree with green foliage, a close up of a faded rose.

Here's what I said at the meeting last night.
Mayor and council. My name is Debbie Wolfe. I live at ... in Keller. I have been a resident and voter in this city for over 15 years. Over that time, I’ve agreed with some city actions and disagreed with others. I cannot express how much I disagree with the proposal to implement a 287(g) program in the City of Keller.

This is an extraordinarily bad time in the history of our country to fall in with an administration that exhibits little regard for the law and the Constitution, that deploys a militarized domestic police force to conduct warrantless sweeps, arrest immigrants whether or not they have a criminal history or are legally in the country, terrorize families, communities, and workplaces, threaten to disrupt industries, violate individuals’ rights to due process, and incarcerate people in inhumane conditions. That is ICE. That is the mission this proposal supports, and you should vote against it.

This cheap political stunt is unbecoming the City of Keller. It is redundant with the county’s 287(g) program. Our police department already runs a check that satisfies ICE requirements. This program will not measurably increase public safety. It will erode the trust that our police have worked very, very hard to build in the community and it is a slap in the face to those fine, underpaid and overworked officers we rely on to protect us.

Do not do this. Thank you.

That Jolly Ball is no more. Later that morning, Grace got the handle off. My mood has improved a bit since then. Got some house cleaning done & I have a good draft of my comments for the Keller City Council when (if) they consider implementing a 287(g) program. Still, the state of things lies heavy.

The board of education where I lived back in the day gave this book to every student when we graduated from elementary school. This is what needs to be in every classroom, not some religious BS.
A book with a blue cover entitled "Our Great State Papers". The table of contents of a book entitled "Our Great State Papers". It lists the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution of New Jersey, and the History of and Pledge to the United States Flag.

Here's a (cute but terrible) picture of Grace with her Rally rosettes as a bit of a timeline cleanser. She's smarter than anyone in Trump's administration.
A mastiff sits to (camera) left of a folding camp chair, the back of which is facing the camera. Her head is tilted toward the chair. Three green rosettes with ribbons hang from the back of the chair. A fourth rosette with ribbons in gold & turquoise hangs from the far right corner of the chair back. The chair is black. "Rocking Oaks Admiral Hopper" is embroidered on the chair back above a logo depicting a mastiff at a ski resort.

Found a close up. The monkey looks awfully sad.
B&W photo of late 19th/early 20th century organ grinder with his monkey on his left shoulder. He keeps the monkey under control via a chain the organ grinder holds in his left hand. The organ grinder bears a strong resemblance to Elon Musk. The monkey's sad visage is reminiscent of Donald Trump.

Found a fascinating article about organ grinders in DC in the late 19th/early 20th centuries. Faces in the Library of Congress photo looked familiar. I ran it through some face-recovery software & did some Photoshop tweaks. I hope you like the result. boundarystones.weta.org/2015/08/04/o...

From a visit to Bob Jones Nature Center in Southlake, TX last week. A herd of about 8 deer was just hanging out near where we parked. They kept eyes on us, but were mostly unperturbed by our presence. This one seemed to be in charge.
At the right side of the frame, a deer lies comfortably in grass & leaves in a wooded area. Her head is up, looking to the left, the left side of her face parallel to the camera.

Suggestive of a tree.Abstract image. A corrugated metal surface, several of the corrugations run from the left downward to the right. The surface is split in rough halves by an undulating line of rust at the edge of a panel. The line runs from the lower left toward the upper right. The metal on the left is unpainted gray with rust spots. The metal on the right seems to have been painted white, the paint peeling in spots to reveal bluish-gray splotches.

New video card and disk drives for my PC came today from Puget Systems. I love them. They were a great help when I ran into trouble changing some BIOS settings to enable an upgrade to Windows 11. Thought I should do that before doing any hardware upgrades. Need a bit more oomph for those Topaz apps.
