Storm to our south made for a lovely sunset tonight. :)

@wxdam @mcclureWX @JeffLast @NDilbeck_Wx More... clouds, and views of the approaching storm (which didn't reach us) ImageImageImageImage
Sunset hitting the lower points of this storm cloud almost made it look like a UFO :) Image
Storm clouds do some amazing things... Image
Closer view of those clouds... Image
Storm Edge Image
Last - two panoramic views, both of which will be better full-screen, or at least opened up. :) Image
180 degrees of sunset

Night! Image

Republicans don't care about truth, law, rules, compassion, community, democracy, or anything like that.

They don't suffer from cognitive dissonance, and hypocrisy is only a tool to use against Democrats.
Republicans will say one thing and a moment later say the opposite - because it serves their purpose to do so. Whatever works to push their agenda. Whatever will help them in that moment.

Power and control are what they want, and they will stop at nothing to get it.
Democracy only matters to them if they can twist it to make it work for them.

Once they start losing, democracy is just another impediment to their ultimate goal.

Power and control. Nothing else matters to them.

I came across something I wrote some years back, and I think it is relevant to the "Man or Bear?" conversation. So, a thread, but first some observations:

When a woman is in an abusive relationship, what's the first thing people say?

"Why doesn't she just leave?"
And I'd like to point out, first of all, that this puts the onus to fix things on the woman. Again.

She's being abused, and fears for her life, but it's on HER to fix it.

Why?
So here's my older post:

Why don’t women leave?

Because of financial reasons.

Because they’ve been programmed by subtle, abusive propaganda to believe that they cannot survive on their own. That they’re not good enough, not smart enough, not capable enough.

When I was eight, we had two child molesters on our block. When we moved, that number dropped to one.

I don't know about the one left behind, but the one who lived with us never spent a second in jail.

Thankfully, he's dead now.
2. I was bullied all through school. A rare disorder I didn't yet know I had made high school extremely difficult.

So did the two guys who threw stuff down the stairwell at me everyday.

And so did the creep who thought he was a stud, and blocked me in the aisles every day.
3. When I was about 12, a man followed me through downtown Everett, WA. I acted casual, like I didn't notice (6 blocks, even in circles).

I got to a corner, went around it, ran like hell to the next corner, and hid in a hobby shop for an hour.

When I was a child, my parents taught me to be against racism (I was lucky).

When I was a young adult, I wasn't racist.

Middle-aged, I was still learning.

At 64, I have realized that although I thought my entire life that I wasn't racist, this American culture bakes it in.
I have never been willingly, intentionally, or knowingly racist.

But even after 64 years, I keep finding bits and shreds and pieces of racist garbage in my brain. Assumptions. Unintentional (but still hurtful) micro-aggressions.

I'm trying to weed it all out...
But it's a journey.

For a while in my 30's, I was "color-blind" or tried to be.

In my 50's, I caught myself thinking "bad neighborhood" when I saw mostly Black people in a store. Had to stop, immediately, and challenge that in my head. And it pissed me off that it was THERE.
