doesn't it feel nice to skip the odd outrage? there are so many at the trump smorgasbord that we can afford to miss one from time to time.

Brave heart! The drawing you do keeps a lot of our hearts going during these crazy days.

many of us had our hideaways. Our librarian always let the shy bookish kids hang out in the stacks during lunch. I read constantly in those days. Still prefer books to humans. Thanks for the memories.

i think you are right to. That sort of slur should be placed on the scrapheap. Good call out and reminder to us all to take care of what we say. It can and does hurt many.

Ours sighs because he cannot resist raising with an inside straight during Texas hold’em. Owes a lot of money to the labrador down the block.

can you imagine? I can hear him say "we must give the americans a tribute of 100 billion right away in order to protect our industries. So basically we will cede alberta to them to cover the debt"

love this and thank you for sharing this. What do you think America will be like when the oligarchs achieve all of their goals? I am not sure what end game they see but am sure that removing millions and terrorizing the rest will truly make america great again.

nope. realist. no advantage to a business minded person to respect anything that does not improve their profits. just refuse to be blind to what greed can do to a society. take care.

Anyone willing to cast aside thier partner and mother to their children because they are not a white christian is willing to betray everything. And a lot of people will support him

that will be his framework to get rid of those he calls undesireables. what the rest of us call neighbours whose families originated elsewhere than europe. And the majority will go along with it right up to and including the death camps that he has begun to build. they have no shame.

likely, given the love Seattle has for social justice, they will just nuke the city. these people have no restraint if they think you are an obstacle to them getting what they want.

he will cancel the election. he will shoot the first batch of protesters. this will end any reistance to the oligarchy. there is no bottom to his depravity.

vance, when the arteries in trump finally seize, will show us just how much lower they can go. never trust a man who will jettison his wife to improve his situation.

There is no hope. Mexico next, then greenland, then canada. Their greed is insatiable. The future will not forget this and the term american will be synonymous with nazi

At home counting all the money they have made and will make from the trump schemes. They do not want to lose that golden goose.

the regime will not allow the midterms to happen. would be a complete disaster for them if they did allow the vote to go forward so they will manufacture a way to prevent the election from happening. 2026 is feeling like 1938 to me. Pray that I am wrong.

i like the colours here. Traditional brush water colours or water colour pencils? Any recommends on supplies for water colour work?

you may have a performing arts kid on your hands. my musician daughter was famous for that kind of shenanigans when she didn't get her way.

and all because the other party had the audacity to run a capable, super intelligent female who was not a white european. Sure showed the rest of us the truth about America. Hope is all but estinguished.

i find myself thinking of those around him. People that clearly have no basic compassion for anyone other than themselves. People that are openly talking about dumping their spouses because they are the wrong colour and that matters more than all the years of love and support they have given so far.

Wow. anyone else in the world, other than the US King, reading this would have amoment of shame. This fellow would be proud of deporting the nazareen immigrants no matter what the circumstance. How much longer will this go on?

Racism is destroying the us, canada in part and some European countries. The inhumanity is on an unprecedented scale.

maybe a little controversial but i always think there is a lot more story to be told about Casey. From all of the original characters she is the one I always wonder, what was she up to during this adventure or that escapade? Maybe just sat and watched TV but you never know!

maybe time for a nice festival in say, oh I don't know, anywhere else to step up so we can have something to look forward to next year.
