So the Supreme Court has ruled 6-3 that the voting rights act was racist in not allowing whites to impose their whiteness on non whites.

Definitely don't do any of this stuff versus flock cameras. I beg you. Please watch carefully several times thru to know what NOT to do.

Just passed my Canada basic/visual line of sight drone pilot certification.
My latest WIP is a painting I’m donating to a Niwot auction to raise money for the Eddie Running Wolf Sculptures. It’s my first acrylic painting in a year and I’d forgetten how long it takes for paint to dry lol. The title will be something like “Niwot before the Europeans” so these whites don’t forget.

I also love all these towns doing their thing for America 250 - and their histories start with some white “settlers” in 1855 or whatever. Yeah no. Not even close. Not by tens of thousands of years.
Okay this is what I’ve been working on - Niwot Film Festival. Jan 21-31. Yes at the same time as the other film festival.
If you’re a film maker please submit your stuff. If you know one, forward it on.

On this 250th birthday of Murrica (how adorable! It’s barely a third as long as the existence of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy!!!) I reflect on the nice little triplet “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” with all evidence in 1776 landing on: take the life of Natives, remove the liberty from the Africans, and for goddamn sure, if anyone is pursuing happiness, nope can’t have that, sayeth the puritans.

Replying to
@josh@masto.byrd.ws if you have ten people on the bus and 9 have $10 each in their pockets, and one is a billionaire with $5000 in his pocket, then the average person has $590 in his pocket. Things are great because yesterday the billionaire wasn’t on the bus and the average was $10.

@josh@masto.byrd.ws and since it’s part of a private venture fund they sell off the buses for parts and cannibalize the system while raking in huge profits which they plow into candidates who will run on government doesn’t work and will then pay the billionaire to replace the buses with autonomous cars the billionaire owns

Any country that allows a guy like Trump to even operate as a viable business guy let alone as the “commander in chief” deserves to sink beneath the waves.
