Closeup of my sweet Calven and his beautiful blue eyes. 🌈 I've been thinking about him and his brother, Milo, as I prepare to bring two new kitties into my life.

I don't take animal adoption lightly. It's a major commitment for the lifetime of the animal(s), and there's pain that comes with the years of joy. It's taken me almost a year of grieving the loss of my boys to reach this point, but I'm now ready to open my heart again. ❤️

Grey, this afternoon. I adore her green eyes

There were 374 worker strikes started in 2022 — a 39% increase over 2021. Do not let up, friends! Keep fighting for the dignity and pay you deserve.

Love is everywhere.

Tom Nichols thinks the fact that the Senate and White House remain in Democratic hands may may make GOP Congress even more prone to "performative nuttery." And:

"The good news is that most of the U.S. government remains in the hands of functional adults."

Jill Biden? Really? These extremists are really something else, threatening to investigate her!

I’m thinking indictments may come down soon in Fulton County, Georgia. The investigative grand jury’s report is finished there, per news reports.

DA Fani Willis, come through!

At last, I have time to share my first #inkyDays drawing for this week.

I needed a calming floral pattern today.

I'll be posting thoughts and drawings this week for my supporters on Ko-fi and Patreon: https://ko-fi.com/post/InkyDays-010923-Z8Z5HPUHT

Working on a second lance for my Long Nights merc company, and today's 'Mech color schemes are:

- HELLO I AM BROWN, an homage to the Warhammer on the 2nd Edition box cover

- For the Phoenix Hawk, "clearly a Gundam suit but let's not be too twee about it"

- And a Cobra H.I.S.S. tank for the Rifelman, sorta

Experimenting with color schemes is a real joy, and I love how quickly 'Mechs come together.

Jean Noel De Soye, Shadow of a Child Playing with his Sweater 2003.

Made a little TV bot on here the other day, today it reminded me of The A-Team, Cheers, Knight Rider, Magnum, P.I, M*A*S*H and The Dukes of Hazzard. My entire childhood right there.

There is no “justice” system.

Today, Trump Org CFO Weisselberg is being sentenced to five months jail.

On a five month sentence, he'll serve approximately 100 days.

As a public defender in Manhattan, I represented a man who was sentenced to 3-6 years (and will serve 1500+ days) for stealing a jacket.

“There is no such thing as 'Herd Immunity' for COVID-19. It is a concept as antiquated as the 'Earth is Flat'. With the exception of smallpox, no pathogen has ever been eradicated from the earth and with smallpox, eradication was achieved with a highly effective long-lasting vaccine. SARS-CoV-2 appears to be the most adaptive and dynamic foe we have ever faced and hoping that the antiquated concept of 'Herd Immunity' will save the day, is just pure fantasy.” https://eu.courier-journal.com/story/opinion/2023/01/04/why-herd-immunity-is-as-an-outdated-concept-when-it-comes-to-covid/69750170007/
