Stopped along Manchester Hwy to take this image many years ago when those (stinky) Bradford pear trees were much smaller than they are today. Now, when I pass that spot I often wonder if the owners of that farm would be interested in this photo. #landscape #middleTN #originalphotography #beechgrove

This is fact!

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

I remember being in a lovely young lady's apartment one afternoon, when out in the parking lot some guy revved up a Harley... rattling windows throughout the complex. She opened her window and screamed, "Hey! I mean... You know?" That's how I feel, now. Hey! I mean... You know??? Fuck Trump!

"Call your Representatives! Call your Senators!" Does anything think my call to Marsha fucking Blackburn is going to influence her vote on a Trump nominee? I might as well write it on toilet paper and flush it toward DC. It's as useless as "Thoughts and Prayers" after a school shooting.

Imagine finding out that your eleven year old daughter had taken her own life because she was bullied at school. Then imagine discovering the source of her bullying was the fear of being left alone if her parents were deported. Is this us, America? Is this what we are, now?

Hey America! Tomorrow marks the ONE MONTH ANNIVERSARY of Trump's current Reign of Error. I know it feels like this nightmare has been going on for years, but it's only been a month. Wake the fuck up, because this nightmare is just getting started!

At a loss for words

WTF??? Again? #planecrash #aircraftcollision apnews.com/article/ariz...

Those Jan. 6th insurrectionists who think Trump's pardon gives them a "get out of jail free" pass forever are finding out differently. At least a couple of prosecutors in Tennessee still have their testicles. www.mediaite.com/crime/doj-pr...

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Did anyone else look at Trump's cabinet nominees and think, "Well, at least Marco Rubio isn't a completely incompetent Trump lackey."? I mean, wasn't he the only nominee you thought might be suitable for a cabinet position? And yet, he's proven to be as much of a sycophant as any of the others.

Trump's puppet master in the Kremlin is intensifying his efforts to divide America from European support of Ukraine. Being the useful idiot he has always been, Trump does Putin's bidding. His base goosesteps along, like bobble-headed idiots. and an ally twists in the wind.

It's amazing how much better the world would be if only Trump's father had made an investment in a condom...

As long as we're renaming things... (hat tip to Clay Bennett of the Chattanooga Times Free Press, the best editorial cartoonist in America)

I'm sick of this cold ass weather, and they're calling for snow tonight and single digit temps before the weekend. Sigh... My fly rod and kayak sit in the garage, and I'm beginning to think we'll never get back on the water again.
