Man, I get it. People don't wanna bring politics here the same way the birdsite had. But it is easy to say that when decisions made in Washington DC affects us black and brown people everywhere else in the world just as much.

Let's have the uncomfortable talks instead of the flame wars the birdsite used to have. Let's listen, learn and hold each other accountable. There's plenty of voices out there needing to be heard.

I call this one "The Old Meets the New". #vangogh painted in dark tones early in his career (about five years) and in bright, contrasting colors his last five years. I try to contrast the two styles in this #oilpainting. 36" x 46".
Me trying to keep up with the Federated timeline on Mastodon:
You cannot control the mind. You cannot stop the continuous thoughts. It’s outlook that needs to change. It’s reacting to action that needs to change. It is thinking before replying. It is thinking before speaking. Is your situation toxic? If so, choosing to be in the moment with no judgement does not help you. It helps the toxic environment. The right action is to do something. The right intention is to do something because corporate mindfulness only leads to mindlessness.
@QasimRashid got it. Just interesting in light of the fact that Trump, for example, supposedly *can’t* be charged for treason since no war has been declared.

Finally got back out walking today. Ice + bad joints = recipe for disaster. Even with cleats it can be nerve-wracking so I wait until it's a bit safer.

But boy, the views were worth waiting for. First up, looking across the channel from Totem Park. Would you look at that sun!

(I'm getting the hang of my new Lumix.)

(via working class history): On this day, 28 November 1919, Faye Schulman, photographer and Jewish resistance partisan, was born in Lenin, Poland (now Belarus). In 1942, the Nazis murdered 1,850 Jews in the Lenin ghetto, leaving only Faye and 25 others alive, making Faye take and develop photos of the massacre. Covertly she made copies of the photographs for herself. She soon fled and joined the partisan resistance, serving as a fighter and nurse. While on a raid in Lenin with her unit, Faye managed to retrieve her camera equipment, and then began documenting the resistance movement, developing her photos under blankets. "I want people to know that there was resistance. Jews did not go like sheep to the slaughter. I was a photographer. I have pictures. I have proof." Faye survived the war and moved to Canada, where she lived until her death on April 24, 2021.

A waterfall at Cascade River State Park, Minnesota. I love this time of year when the waterfall just start to freeze like this picture shows.

Sunrise from the Grand Marais harbor that I shot the other day. I haven't shot much the last couple of days due to a whirlwind of travel.
