I've had a crush on @1NatalieMaines for 25+ years. Pretty impressive given I am gay. But, if you're paying attention you know that I often get crushes on extraordinary women. Hell, I've been in love with @LoveTinaTurner, @BettyBuckley, & @HillaryClinton most of my life.

I bring this up because @thechicks newest album "Gaslighter" has been getting me through a lot lately.
But it's also a kick in the gut.
I despise cheaters. Infidelity sucks y'all.
I know, It's been done to me so often in the past much of this album is about infidelity.

When @thechicks say anything they don't pull any punches. They sort of just pieface you with it and go back to getting on with things.
It what they do and part of why they amaze me and are still relevant decades after they began.
There was no interest with first group of paintings. But, I'm desperate, so here is the third set. If you e interested in any of them DM and we can discuss favorable cost and shipping terms. Proceeds go to my legal defense fund. My next court date is Thursday.
I'm not sure if anyone on here still cares, and I wouldn't blame you if you didn't, trust. My depression and illnesses have swallowed me up and I get anxiety even thinking about logging on because I used have people on here who cared deeply and I have alienated most of them.
1/
I have done the same IRL and have literally no one out here who cares anymore. I have a major court date on the 17th and need to get my lawyers some to keep them from dropping the case and while I have some, it's not nearly enough.

I've decided to post some artwork on here to see if anyone was interested. All of them will not ship for at least 7 days as I have not yet top coated them.
The sizes and materials are noted with the pics.
Thanks to everyone who reads this, and to anyone who is interested, DM.

The war being fought today by Vladimir Putin's Russia will not end well for anyone. Not for the world. Not for Europe. Not for America.
1/
It obviously will not end well for the Ukraine.
But, contrary to Putin's personal hopes and belief, it will especially not end well for Russia.
This is a nightmare of a war on so many levels and too few seem to understand the implications or the possible ramifications

And for those Americans who think that this is a foreign war that does not undermine our domestic interests and so, therefore, requires military, if not, diplomatic neutrality, consider the following.
Russia is a bully nation that is run by an even bigger bully.

Yesterday there were dozens of Trump supporters protesting along a major traffic artery here in Kenosha, one that runs directly in front of our largest hospital; a hospital once again filled to bursting with Covid-19 admissions.
They were protesting all covid-19 mandates.
1/
They do not want them anywhere in public, and, it seems, especially not schools.
No masks.
No social distancing.
No vaccine requirements.
I know a nurse who works in that building who battled Covid and who lost her own mother to the virus.
This was a shameful display.
2/
The cognitive dissonance is profound and is a danger to all of us.
I grow weary of reading about yet another of these "patriots" who, just weeks ago probably stood in such protests themselves, but who now have Covid and suddenly its all "I wish I had listened..."

The Magas in the region I live in were often fairly well off financially. Well off enough to pay both arms and legs for the array of very expensive Trump signs, Trunp flags, and other types of political detritus to fill their yards and windows and automobiles with.

Your economic disparity argument was never a good fit and was based more on the guiding force of your imagination than in reality.
In 2016 more of the truly impoverished in this nation voted for Hillary Clinton than for Donald Trump.
