Our Agave’s “death bloom” in our back yard in phoenix. This happens after about 7 years. The agave will die, but drop seeds to bring new life first.

🧵 Inspired by reading @thomaslfriedman.bsky.social: When I say that people aren’t looking at the conflict between Israel and Gaza with nuance, I don’t just mean one group—I mean all sides. Not only can two things be true at the same time—multiple things can be true at once. For example:

This is not leadership. This is not strategic. This doesn’t balance the budget or make us safe. This does not make America great. www.aam-us.org/2025/03/31/a... #AAM #IMLS #Museums #Libraries

Graphic says: Today, the entire staff of the Institute of Museum and Library
Services (IMLS) was placed on
administrative leave.
This move, which continues to undermine the will of the American people, raises questions as to whether the agency will be able to fulfill its legal obligations to disperse congressionally appropriated funding.

If you think this national security breach is no big deal, that the journalist unwittingly added to the text thread is to blame, and that downplaying the incident isn’t an example of Olympic caliber hypocrisy…. then you are definitely in a cult. 👊🇺🇸🔥

Real leadership understands the true value of the arts goes beyond the tangible. It’s about the ways a vibrant arts community brings us together, inspires fresh perspectives, and helps us express—and reflect on—what we feel.

An effective nonprofit brand starts with your mission—it should drive everything. Too often, nonprofits settle for unprofessional logos and hard-to-navigate websites, weakening their connection with audiences, donors, and supporters.

Our dogs know they have to wait for the 'OK!' before they start eating. Sherman loves his food as much as anydog, but he's mastered the art of waiting patiently before devouring his meal. Murray is getting the hang of it, but his excitement is a little harder to contain. I think he takes after me.

Facebook automatically had me following the new President, First Lady, and VP. If you’re still there, you may want to check to make sure you’re not following them if you don’t want to be. (I saw someone post this and doubted it was true, so I checked, and sure enough, I was following all of them.)
