I’m trying to get more people in my photography to add something different. This is a phone shot from Venice near St Marks Square

can't believe it's been 40 years

I remember purchasing this on cassette in the spring of that year, at a place called Olsson's Books and Records in Washington, DC

and listening to it on my Walkman to and from class

If people are required to show proof of citizenship to vote, then all the documentation one has to get must be made free and easy to get otherwise it is akin to having a poll tax that the poor and isolated cannot pay.

An original art quilt with the moon rising red into the grey sky and moon rays streaming off it. 40 by 80 inches. #lunarart #astronomy #lunareclipse

I almost forgot the lunar eclipse among the chaos of the news. Tomorrow morning--and for those of us on the East Coast we get a selenelion where the moon sets as the sun rises. This is my quilt "blood moon" from several years ago as a reminder. #bloodmoon #artquilt #selenelion #original #art #quilt

I still can’t believe we have a Fox News host running our military.

Pope Leo today on Iran: "Stability and peace are not achieved through mutual threats, nor through the use of weapons, which sow destruction, suffering, and death, but only through reasonable, sincere, and responsible dialogue. ... May diplomacy regain its proper role"

“I am following with deep concern what is happening in the Middle East and in Iran during this tumultuous time. Stability and peace are not achieved through mutual threats, nor through the use of weapons, which sow destruction, suffering, and death, but only through (…) dialogue.” Pope Leo XIV

As we leave Black History Month, I have that (too frequent) disgust bubbling up at those who would whitewash our history and push back on the idea that our freedoms as a nation must be seen in light of our national and local efforts to restrict those freedoms on the basis of color.

The best thing I’ve read on the Anthropic dispute by far 👇

Being a Luddite Is Cool and All, but Have You Seen the Hilarious Tapestries These New Looms Are Making? Don’t get me wrong, I’m as invested in keeping my job as the next weaver. When the boss brought in that big new power loom, I was pretty skeptical....

When the boss brought in that big new power loom, I was skeptical. He said once he got it running, we’d be out of a job, so when the boys started talking about breaking into the factory and smashing the thing, I was on board. Until, that is, I saw the funny tapestries it could make.

As I write, a man on TV is rallying the USA to hate & fear.

But we don't need hate & fear.

We need love.

We need Jesus.

We need people like my brother in Christ, Alex Pretti, who lived in service and sacrificed his life to protect the vulnerable.

Be like Alex.

This conference wasn't planned as a response by the Catholic Church against Trump & Vance, but in this environment it's another example of how the Church is being a bulwark against Trump & Vance's authoritarianism.

ok had to draw this too

"God does not need papers to know where you are... The world may look at your legal status, but God looks at your heart."

Pope Leo: “We perceive in the ashes imposed on us the weight of a world that is ablaze, of entire cities destroyed by war. This is also reflected in the ashes of international law and justice among peoples, the ashes of entire ecosystems and harmony among peoples, the ashes of critical thinking.”

U2 has named the CPJ one of three charitable partners it is supporting as it launches “Days Of Ash” — a self-contained collection of five new songs and a poem inspired by the “many extraordinary and courageous people fighting on the front lines of freedom.”

“the ashes… of a world that is ablaze, of entire cities destroyed by war… of international law & justice among peoples, the ashes of entire ecosystems & harmony among peoples, the ashes of critical thinking & ancient local wisdom, the ashes of that sense of the sacred that dwells in every creature”

I was teaching our school kids at Ash Wednesday Mass where the ashes for Ash Wednesday comes from.
