It would be a real shame if the racist transphobic ableist portal enddei.ed.gov got flooded with garbage and spam.

For what it's worth, I'm here for my kid's mock trial competition and most of the students seem to be female and/or POC. I sincerely hope that's representative of the new generation of lawyers.

Washington residents: You know what to do.

Stainless steel urinal for parks, prisons, etc.

#ArtAdventCalendar Probably my last contribution for this year: Cranes, Port of Seattle. I've enjoyed seeing so much creativity here, not having to fight an algorithm to discover new things.

Thanks! I paint what I see, and I've spent a lot of time on construction sites over the years.

Watercolor painting of Japanese Maple leaves, the deep red of the leaves in contrast with the diffuse green background.

#ArtAdventCalendar Some Japanese Maple fall color. Tried to do a bokeh effect in the background but it's not quite working the way I imagined.

I got laid off last year, but not having to write self evaluations anymore nearly makes it worth it.
