Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

This blog will pay for itself.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

White supremacy is terrorism.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

I was promised a recession.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

People are complicated. Love is not.

Have a wonderful day, and enjoy the pictures. Today we conclude our trip up North!

Today, pictures from valued commenter FerdfromtheNort.

Sometimes you just need to turn around and see the other way.

Got sunset? Turn around.
Got stained glass? Where does the light go?

Assiniboine River, Winnipeg

Typical sunset shot.

Then you turn around.

Same time, same place – Winnipeg

Yeah. this loads on the tool upside down, but I hope it can be fixed.

Two photos, less than a minute apart.

A Church in southern Poland

A satin table cover. Stained glass. Light. Always look at where the light goes.

This is not a greatly interesting photograph. But it is just as my phone recorded it. No photoshop to get light effects like these.

Outside Arviat

Mid afternoon sunset. One way is sun and snow with sillouettes.

Arviat, Nunavut

Step back and look the other way. Totally different photo. To me it does not look nearly as cold.

 

Thank you so much FerdfromtheNort, do send us more when you can.

    I like the one with the human bundled up in the parka and the dogs running around in their bare feet all happy.

    Just a couple of notes.
    To introduce the Pack:
    Big white dog – Angnaq (Inuktitut for Girl)
    Furry shorter tail – Sarai (died last month, rescue dog, see earlier photo collection)
    Middle dog (not seen in last photo) – Pransr (kid who named him really bad at spelling), rescue dog and pure DAWG

    And of course the wife.

    Second, The satin cover photo is actually up-side down as shown. So it goes…

    @OzarkHillbilly: Exactly.

    Great advice to both look where the light goes and turn around.

    Thanks so much for the beauty, FFTN
