Bob Ross paintings to be auctioned to support public TV stations after federal funding cuts
All profits will help public TV stations with licensing fees for popular programs that include "The Best of Joy of Painting" and "America's Test Kitchen."
Thirty paintings created by the bushy-haired, soft-spoken Bob Ross will soon be up for auction to defray the costs of programming for small and rural public television stations suffering under cuts in federal funding. https://to.pbs.org/4nEQMrw

It feels lame to look for where to place blame. Some things just take time.
Though I do find it ironic that places saying they arenβt interested or ghosting use past work I did with Getty (my last employer). Sometimes I think I shouldnβt have left. Then I remember I likely wouldnβt be alive today π€·πΎββοΈ

About a year in business and bank accounts are null or negative. Most days are hard, some with an ugly cry. But Iβm alive with a paid job today so thatβs good.

My work isn't easy. But, I know it's rewarding and useful. Most days flow with big waves of hopefulness and dread amongst reality and dreams.
I can't help but be delusional and still build, or believe that things will be okay. It's the only way I've been able to hold and experience the intangible.

On trial for journalism in Kentucky.
Two months after their arrests while covering a protest, a pair of local reporters face criminal charges.
Two journalists are set to be tried in Kentucky this week.
Their crime? Covering a protest of the immigration detainment of Ayman Soliman, who himself fled persecution for his journalism in Egypt. Solimanβs lawyer called it a βcruel irony.β

"So, what's your budget?"
How Nwachukwu Works hopes to alleviate answering that short, complex question.
I made a form for custom licensing so that more users can get what they need priced at a rate that works for them. The first 100 (50 individuals and 50 organizations of three or more people) can register without paying a setup fee (amount TBD).

I tried to tell some fellow supporter friends years ago to not be so cocky when the trophies were coming in like full bars on Halloween. The full rebuild shouldβve started in 2013, but instead the club doubled down on nostalgia. Womenβs side is doing so well despite consistent exec underdevelopment.
