Last daily sketchbook class. We did people. I did a couple self portraits, because at least I’m not going to say, “do you really think I look like that?”

Esperantist. Collects stamps. Writes stories occasionally (gotta work on that). More to come on the bio.
When did Joe Biden become such a powerful orator? Think he’s too old? Watch the speech.
I’m getting better at watercolors. (This is from today’s Daily Sketchbook class. Despite the name we’re not being encouraged to make it a daily practice.)
Started a daily sketchbook class today. We were encouraged to use watercolor (and I learned a lot about watercolor in a short time), so I drew my watercolor kit. #art
@gooba42 @Pagan_Animist @KawaTora We *can* contradict the people involved, if we can prove that they were lying.
The trouble for Confederate apologists is that then they have to argue that those they wished to honor lied through their teeth with their repeated claims of dishonorable motives to cover up more reasonable ones.
All evidence points to the Confederates being honest until they lost.
@georgetakei Please note, the Second Nexus site popped up a bogus MacAfee warning that I had visited a compromised website. I hope they're not stooping so low as to try to defraud their readers. Shame on MacAfee and on Second Nexus.
A new journal milestone! 1,700 days of consecutive journal entries. I last missed a journal entry on April 27, 2019. (And that 1,452? That's days from January 1, 2020 onward.) I could not have done this without Day One!
We had plans. They fell through. It’s the sort of thing that happens from time to time. Sometimes you just have to embrace the chaos and be flexible. We had a good evening nevertheless. Have a good weekend whether your plans work out or not.Seed
The year after that was the 400th anniversary of Columbus's voyage.That's the best they could come up with.
Columbus doesn't deserve a day named after him. The mythos created around him to support the holiday ignores history.
Let's remind ourselves of the real reason for the day: white people murdered immigrants.
This is the day when we should remember that immigrants have made fantastic contributions to the US.
