This isn't just crazy, it's crazy at the cellular level. There's deep deep craziness here. Crazy piled on crazy.

Every morning when I read the news, I think about this: "Voting wasn’t something you owed Kamala Harris. It was something you owed all the people Trump was going to hurt."

This is the reason MAGA loves him. He openly behaves like a complete asshole and gets away with it. All MAGA wants to be able to do the same thing.

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders? Ex-cops usually make lousy private detectives because they've learned to rely on their authority to get answers to questions. PIs have no authority; a good PI learns how to get a witness to WANT to talk.

"for good or ill"? Baker thinks there's a question whether Trump has had a positive or negative effect on the US. Dude, there's a difference between "covering his sixth presidency" and providing cover FOR your sixth president. You are NOT doing your job.

I love clothes that have a history.

Happy Bloomsday, to those who celebrate. (I shot this in 2007 with my first digital camera: an Olympus C770UZ) #photography #DemocraticCamera

"It's cool again to be involved in politics" The thing about Trump & his people is this: they aren't cool, they've never been cool, they never will be cool, & they KNOW it. But they desperately WANT to be cool, & it eats at them. The only thing they can do is try to ruin the cool kids.

Before the #NoKings event began, I saw this young woman unfolding her sign as she crossed the street. #RicohGR3x #ricohsnaps #GRist #photography #DemocraticCamera #StreetPhotography

Resist. Orange man bad. #NoKings #RicohGR3x #ricohsnaps #GRist #photography #DemocraticCamera

I attended the local #NoKings event and noticed a consistent sentiment expressed by everybody there. Fuck Trump. gregfallis.com/2025/06/15/t...

It's nice to come home after 4 days on the road and 1) sleep in your own bed, 2) get up the next day and attend a No Kings protest, and 3) open your email and find a contract from Alfred Hitchcock waiting for your signature. #Writing is fun(?); getting paid for it is always more fun.

This woman and her very fine dog made it clear they wanted #NoKings in the US. #RicohGR3x #ricohsnaps #GRist #photography #DemocraticCamera #StreetPhotography

Welcome to my military parade.

In 87F heat with 65% humidity, this woman hauled a wagon holding an ice chest around the #NoKings protest, giving free cold water to thirsty protesters. #RicohGR3x #ricohsnaps #GRist #photography #DemocraticCamera

Wait a minute. Waitwaitwait. The 'outdated "miasma theory" of disease'? WTF do you mean, 'outdated'? It's not about fashion, you fuckwits. Try the 'wildly incorrect, scientifically unsound, and massively boneheaded "miasma theory" of disease.'

I've no idea how many thousands showed up for #NoKings in DSM. Absolutely peaceful. No uniformed police presence. A palpable feeling of resistance & determination along with a thrill of joy in shared purpose. Let's do it again! #RicohGR3x #ricohsnaps #GRist #photography #DemocraticCamera

No Kings, just purple. And NO police presence.

Ready to go!

I'm leaving soon to No Kings my ass off. I want to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with VietNam vets & Black goth lesbians & suburban wine moms & LOUD drag queens & the last few remaining punks & garage dads & furries & theater kids & Asian grandmothers & cat owners & folks who gave up on Elden Ring.

Jesus suffering fuck, people, this is simple. Do you oppose fascism? Then go protest. Will there be folks you disagree with? Okay, go protest anyway. Will there be folks who are cringe? Protest anyway. This is NOT invitation only. Show up. Raise your voice. Let the fascists know you exist.

without downloading any new pictures , where are you mentally?

We need immediate action in response to what the hell went on. Sadly, we can't expect that from you.

Lace curtains. #RicohGR3x #ricohsnaps #GRist #photography #DemocraticCamera #monochrome

Jesus suffering fuck...
