I'm devastated to say we had to say goodbye to our strange little Norah girl today, who had a short battle with cancer as well as kidney disease. We adopted her and sis Martha from WHS as tiny kittens. She used to help me cook, and loved perching on me. 1/3

Thanks to the US & Israel, global medicine prices will rise. The Persian Gulf is not just an energy chokepoint but a critical pharmaceutical transit hub, where drugs and their ingredients from India, Europe, and China routinely pass before heading to Africa, Asia, and America.

Fuck this guy. We have the money to do it all. Billions in taxpayer dollars. I would rather my money go to daycare vouchers for parents than useless wars. I'd rather see Medicaid, Medicare, disability checks, and SNAP benefits increase than build war machines. Period.

Since the New Deal, the right edge of the conservative movement has been committed to the goal of eliminating all facets of the federal government that do good in the world, leaving behind only a war machine and a surveillance operation capable of containing the “internal leftist enemy.”

Something I finished up a couple weeks ago. Based on the original Dogs Playing Poker painting by Cassius Marcellus Coolidge, but instead it's the mascots of Prairie Malt, Melvin Brewing and Roadhouse Brewing.

A digital painting meant to evoke vintage oils of a prairie dog, an African elephant, and a grizzly bear gathered around a green felt-covered table playing poker. At left the prairie dog is seated in a red-upholstered armchair and using a thick book for a boost up to table level. He's shuffling his hand while smoking a pipe. Filling up the center of the composition is the elephant looking straight out at the viewer over his comically tiny pince nez glasses as he looks at his cards. At right is the grizzly bear peeking into the frame, somehow wedged into a similar armchair. He appears to be getting off some humorous bon mot and is wearing a little bowler hat and has a lit cigar in one paw. All the animals have mugs of beer at hand and there's a free-standing tray with chips and dip next to the table, which itself is covered with cards and poker chips. At the top of the frame is one hanging green-shaded lamp that seems the be the primary light source. The scales of the animals are all wildly off to make any of this work. This is all contained within a stock photo of an antique wooden frame with a brass nameplate of the companies the three animals are mascots for: Prairie Malt, Melvin Brewing and Roadhouse Brewing.

When I reported for duty at Naval Station Great Lakes, I never imagined that some day a US President would seek to use it as a base for surveillance and enforcement activity on American soil. Our military was not set up to cater to the whims of a would-be American dictator.

Trump’s planned Chicago blitz would use naval base to house ICE agents, possibly National Guard
