Sent to my Congressperson:
Representative Chavez-DeRemer:
I was shocked and appalled to learn that my representative had voted for Mike Johnson for Speaker of the House.
You voted for someone who would deny our LGBTQ+ citizens their basic freedoms in the name of his extreme religious views?
Someone who actively opposes efforts to deal with the climate catastrophe that is already setting our state on fire every year?
Someone who opposes any attempt to fight the scourge of guns, now the leading cause of death in the US?
Someone who tried, in coordination with a terrorist attack on our Capitol, to overthrow our democratically-elected government?
What were you thinking?
Reader, we played all of these games (plus two more we threw in after the photo was taken), a couple of them more than once. In three of them @htdrake beat me by one point.
Parts of all the books were read and two finished.
Much art was created, as seen in my feed.
I did juggle the balls, but the weather wasn't good enough to hit the beach with the clubs.

@mos_8502 I can't tell at this resolution, but I think that's below the edition of Britannica with spine labels including "Chicago Death", "Precolumbian Saint", and "Menage Ottowa".

Votes for Women keeps you on the edge of your seat for the entire game. Tonight I won as the Opposition by:
1. Delaying Peter from sending the amendment to the states until turn 6. So close to immediate victory!
2. Ignoring the West & Plains to focus on the South & Midwest.
3. Winning the critical Superior Lobbying strategy card.
4. Quietly returning to my foothold in the Atlantic to claim the last two states I needed to win.
Bonus 🎵 ambiance: 1910s greatest hits.
@glennpeters To be clear, this is something I saw in a restaurant, not a sudden quantum leap (and change of medium) in my own art.
