I started when I was a floral designer and people started requesting a moss wall for wedding photos. It then grew into part of my business as a plant sales and rental company. Good quality preserved moss is expensive and building the frames is labor intensive but it’s a rewarding art form.

Hmmm… was the secret “I had Muskrat fix the swing states to swing in my favor”?

How can ALL 7 swing states go in the same direction? A statistical improbability.

Apparently, Muskrat forgot that people who care about climate change and tend to buy EV’s are usually left leaning liberals

I’ve been receiving notifications from Listifications that some people are blocking me. I am an artist and teach disaster preparedness. Why would someone block me?

Almost $500 million in food is at risk of spoilage after USAID pause, report says A report from the USAID inspector general says that almost $500 million in food assistance is sitting in ports, ships and warehouses.

The millions in USAID food is STILL sitting at the Port of Houston. Trump fired the watchdogs reporting on this story, he doesn’t want Americans to see this debacle. Wasting millions on food already purchased is the epitome of wealthy entitlement #Voices4Victory

It looks like all of the social services we provide that people depend on may have to go underground, or private. The question then remains, “How do we fund these programs?” GoFundMe’s aren’t going to collect the billions it will take. But I do see an alternative in the future

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, two cars are passing, a brown and a red car. The red comes to a screeching halt, braking hard to avoid hitting the brown one.
Green, inside the brown car: Watch out!!

Inside the brown car, Blue is driving, angry, as Green sits on the passenger seat, startled.
Green: That other car almost hit us!
Blue: They should be more careful. We had the right of way.

Now Green also frowns.
Green: They don't write it on your tombstone that you were right in the crash, you know.
Blue: They should.
Green: "Here lies Blue fox, who was righteous in traffic."
Blue: Sounds excellent.

Some of us on FB were discussing the republican‘s role in this disaster and why they aren’t standing up for our democracy. Some liken it to „Battered Wife Syndrom“. These are my thoughts:
