The Penelope looks fascinating! How can we purchase one?

An uneducated populace can be easily manipulated by not facts checking and believing the lies.

Thank you Rachel for your commitment to social justice and to your profession.

Excellent video SmallTownJoe.We have to save this Symbol of American Ingenuity to create a lasting Symbol of Peace. Ask your family,friends & neighbors to sign the NYCSSSUS petition so that we can get to 10,000.Write Okalooka, FL to beg them not to send our beautiful BIG U to an underwater grave.

Interesting… what’s the source?

Oligarchs can buy WHATEVER they want! There really is no limit. They have no scruples and worship only themselves and money.

It looks like a fascinating exhibit! I'd love to get up there to see it but the time is sadly running out.😥

"A whole lot of people are going to be really hurt by what is happening&even if they’re of a different political persuasion, we need to call upon our empathy&not judge, but listen from our hearts&welcome them into our tent.We are going to need a big tent to resist successfully what’s coming at us.”

“Make no mistake, empathy is not weak or woke...And, by the way, woke just means you give a damn about other people.."

Dad took the photo of Mom, Jeff and me at Gala Night on the SS United States end of the summer 1958 on our return voyage from England. Jeff painted this wonderful painting of that special time.

Record-Setting Ocean Liner, a Titan of Its Time, Begins Its Final Voyage The S.S. United States, the largest passenger ship ever built in America, left Philadelphia under tow on Wednesday, eventually to be sunk off the Gulf Coast.

So many memories from the voyages my family took on this magestic ocean liner summer of 1958 to and from England.I was just 9 years old. My younger brother Jeff & I went with our mother in Tourist class to England & we upgraded to Cabin class home when Dad joined us. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/19/u...

Excellent read! Several good points.

My confusion -there was a post far down on the thread that lead me to think it was Skylar not Will, as Will was never clearly identified, so I did some digging. It's a mess for so many! 47 & Musk will probably throw money at them to compensate them for their losses in hopes of winning them back..

This "older farmer"and rural political consultant is Will Westmoreland not Skylar Holden. Will did a podcast with Don Lemon and also interviewed with Skylar Holden, a cattle farmer from Missouri. Here is an article about Skylar rollingout.com/2025/02/13/m...

I shared on my FB page. Hope people will take the time to listen. He makes some excellent non-judgmental points

It's a fun little loom. Very well designed - quiet, light and easy to fold up to move around. You can purchase pre-wound warps which makes it a bit quicker to warp. It has a built in bobbin winder, too.
