The Department of Homeland Security was founded to protect Americans from organized terrorist organizations. There is only one significant terrorist organization active in this country. It’s I.C.E., an arm of the Department of Homeland Security.

Deco detail from the restored (reopened in ‘04 as a concert venue) #CascadeTheater in Redding. And me in the lobby under the mural. I spent much of my youth watching movies here.
Deco relief design with leaping stag, leaves, and scrollwork in copper, pale green, silver, and gold. Selfie in the theater lobby with deco ceiling and a large western scene painted above the glass doors out to Market Street.

Just the tip of her snout peeks out from the Indian bedspread she wrapped herself in. More of her peeking out from the bed clothes, with one eye and protruding tongue.

The post came from a friend to my husband and me, in separate rooms. My responses are in blue. His followed so instantly after mine, it was clear we had been typing concurrently, independently reacting almost identically. 💔
Screenshot of a text thread. After R.I.P. Dolly, I respond “Nooooooo” and husband responds “Noooooooo” Then I say, “The world is diminished “ and husband says, “The world is colder.”
