I thought I saw her work before. She's on one of my favorite art sites - I've seen a lot of paper art but what she does is exceptional. Here's more: thisiscolossal.com/2023/01/m…

Dramatic Flora and Fauna Emerge from Maude White's Exquisitely Detailed Cut Paper Sculptures

Created from single pieces of paper, Maude White’s sculptures (previously) reveal the veins of petals and leaves, braided locks, and vivid animal portraits. Making countless tiny incisions on...

President Grant warned us. Ulysses S. Grant, 1822—1885 A quote from a speech in which Grant advocated for free public education so the electorate could make good choices. He saw a split between the educated & less educated as a profound & dangerous division:

The Florida High School Athletics Association is standing by its decision to require student athletes to give their schools detailed information about their periods, an unprecedented policy that is raising major concerns about privacy. newrepublic.com/post/170192/…

You can’t be the #1 economy in the world if you don’t have the best infrastructure. That's why last year we funded almost 7,000 projects. By the end of this year we’ll be over 20,000.

Nicholas Winton helped 669 Jewish children escape the Nazis. His efforts went unrecognized for 50 years. Then in 1988, while sitting as a member of a TV audience, he suddenly found himself surrounded by the kids he’d rescued, now adults. I like to remember this every Jan 27th.

This. It's felt so disgusting. They are promoting the video of Tyre Nichols being killed like it's a horror movie trailer.
Don’t Boo…Revolt!
@BreeNewsome27 Jan 2023
The way they’ve spent days & hours emphasizing the violence of Tyre Nichols’ murder like it’s a countdown to a movie release tells you everything about the depravity of the system we live under.

"We're a nation awash in 400M guns and too few gun laws, and our states have invisible borders, where guns cross over as easily as cars do. So we're only as safe as the closest state with the weakest gun laws, which in California means Arizona and Nevada."harpersbazaar.com/culture/po…

California’s Recent Mass Shootings Prove Gun Control Is Just the Beginning

The state has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation, but some of the loosest and most permissive in the Western world.

CNN's @DonLemon on Florida: "It feels like the 1950s all over again, with book banning. This is cancel culture from people who are – I guess they just want our kids to be ignorant, and to control the teachers. This is outrageous ... it's just ridiculous."

I want to highlight a point @donlemon makes here: Books do cover uncomfortable topics. But that's how we learn, and grow, and develop critical thinking and empathy. Banning books and denying students honest history impedes that growth. cnn.com/videos/politics/2023…’

Tyre Nichols’ family attorney Antonio Romanucci calls out police unions for not condemning Nichols’ fatal arrest at the hands of Memphis police: “We want to hear you say that what happened to Tyre... should never, ever happen again; that you condemn the brutality, the savagery.”

So, if your picture of the economy came entirely from headlines and cable chyrons — which is probably true for many — would you know that the economy has grown 6.7 percent under Biden so far and inflation for the past 6 months was 1.9 percent? 1/

If kids came first for you, you would support the expanded child tax credit -- which in 2021 reduced US child poverty by nearly half. Child poverty is a stain on all of us, we had a policy that reduces it, and you ended it. Photo ops don't help kids; better policy does.

Police officers were "highly charged" at the beginning of the video of Tyre Nichols' beating. The video is NOT the beginning of the whole traffic stop incident. Video will be released at 6pm EST tomorrow.
