The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Neal Katyal: "In America, the chief justice said only Congress can impose taxes on the American people, and that's what tariffs are. Tariffs are taxes."

This is a crime. If you read the Board of Peace charter, you understand it has nothing to do with the American government; it's a private entity Trump created for his own enrichment. This is an impeachable offense, and if this country were not broken he would be gone by tomorrow.

Sanctuary policies are legal. The Supreme Court has been clear for decades that the federal government cannot commandeer state or local governments to enforce federal immigration law. This isn’t “playing with fire.” It’s constitutional law.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city. If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

I’ve gone on a “liking” binge because you haven’t been showing up in my feed. Still trying to figure out this new realm over here.

This is a hostile takeover of slash and burn! What is the PLAN to fight this?!

Let’s be specific: Trump/Musk want to rob everyone and take over the planet. Many, many Americans oppose this unlawful coup. I can’t even sleep at night.

Intentionally turning my mind to art and nature therapy today (with the occasional news check). 🌿 Carved porcelain serving bowl glazed in my Robin's Egg blue. Decorative, yes; highly functional, absolutely .

Here’s another work-in-process, carved porcelain serving bowl from the archives. This design will come to life again this year.

I think it’s appropriate to post whatever feels right for you. I like to think of following artists for who they are as well as what they make.

I dread it, but as you said, I often see things thru the lens that I may otherwise have missed.

Those who have been following me for a while know that bees will become gold, representing their preciousness in our ecosystem. (Detail shot from the finished carved porcelain mug shown previously as a WIP.)

My carving process involves many steps and much patience. The detail round toward the end, when dental tools make their appearance, is always my favorite.
