Old guy, photographer, artist, dabbler. Been all over the world and seen a lot of things. I strive to experience what this tiny blue ball has to offer and leave it no worse for my presence.

Has any one else noticed the similarities between mistakes made by the axis in WWII and us in Iran? The most obvious being the assumption that technical and tactical superiority guarantee strategic victory, all the while vastly misunderstanding of the enemy's resilience and the asymmetric costs

Jones: All you do is keep people fearful because you get paid 45 million a year to keep people fearful so they don’t pay attention to the CEOS taking their healthcare. You don’t care about the American people. You want them to be afraid of immigrants because all you have is fear.

For the 1st time in US history, the leader of an insurrection pardoned insurrectionists. Trump’s alliance w/paramilitary actors is part of how he’s digging in, cementing power, & laying groundwork to crush political competition. This is the Entrenchment Agenda

Thinking about this a lot lately…🙃
Dana Gould tweeted:

Thinking about Rush Limbaugh and how, now that he's dead, you never, ever hear about him. No one mentions anything he did.

Because what he did had no value.
It contributed nothing worthwhile to the culture. Nothing of lasting value.

He just made anger. Every day.
Rising, blooming & fading like a fart.
Then he died & was instantly replaced by a fleet of little replicas, farting fake fury five days a week.
Creating nothing of interest or artistic value to anyone.

Seriously, what an awful way to make a living.
