<\/p>\nYesterday, I finished framing and watermarking cartoons for between June 11 – June 20. Five more down. Ten days and five more new ones to go. My computers are’t networked, but Yahoo provides an app for notes which then remain online, and I’ve started using it for what’s going on with cartoons so I can access cartoon information on either computer and update it on both at the same time. The picture in progess I can always email to myself and get the same result … or put them on a thumb drive. That way I can grab spare seconds to work them. Also, Nameless informs me he will have a post for Memorial Day up sometime today – when I see it I’ll send a second email, because not everyone who gets the emails reads every day.<\/p>\n

\nQuote – Of course, politicians look the other way. That’s the agreement. And even the good politicians are afraid of the cops, since motivated cops think nothing of digging up dirt on their perceived enemies. (As their exes can verify.)

\nQuote – When Sonya Grist entered the room, she was shaking. \u201cMy stomach was in a knot,\u201d she said. \u201cIt was a bit of a shock to the system.\u201d But as she embraced her mother for the first time, \u201cthere was an immediate bond,\u201d she said. \u201cI haven\u2019t come down to earth yet.\u201d The feeling was mutual: \u201cShe is a little bit of me,\u201d Cole said between tears. Seeing her daughter again, \u201cwas definitely the best thing that has happened to me.\u201d
\nClick through for very touching story.<\/a> It’s a slow news day … and we can all use good news. My cousein sent me the (gift) link (so no paywall.)<\/p>\n
\nQuote – Starting with a clip of Tucker Carlson cackling like a deranged hyena at critics of his white supremacy, Cross told viewers, her tongue somewhat in cheek, \u201cWell, this might be a surprise to many of you, but I actually think that white replacement theory is very legitimate. It is absolutely something to fear.\u201d But not at all for the reasons any of us might have been thinking. Because beginning with the Indian Removal Act, which forced relocation of thousands of Native Americans, also known as the Trail of Tears, whites saw people of color as \u201cin the way\u201d of fertile land they wanted for themselves. So they forced native peoples off their own land, then replaced them with white settlers.
