SIMPLE BEAUTY IN ORDINARY THINGS AROUND US; JUST LOOK


(Ed.'s Note: It's easy to just walk or drive by cactus and weeds growing behind a chain-link fence in a downtown alley without noticing some of the natural beauty therein. But upon closer inspection, the observer will notice the new cactus pads sprouting the new fruit which will flower and whose pollen will be carried by bees and insects to pollinate other plants nearby. 

The new light green cactus pad near the middle shows that some bird, animal or rodent has already fed on it and the weeds with the bright blue blooms will be pollinated as well and seed to grow new weeds next season. Where is our Van Gogh or Matisse to take his palette and create works that will – like Van Gogh's sunflowers – transmit the simple beauty of the lowly cactus and weeds to art lovers everywhere?)

Unity? First, accountability: Before Joe Biden can bring America together, asswipe Donald Trump and his helpers must pay for what they’ve done.

Who the fuck walks alleys? Just you, Montoya!

Must be that beer that helps you see beauty in a hardly-beautiful cactus. Or do you gather and then eat those free nopales, ese?

Joe Biden will start his presidency next week with relatively strong performance ratings, according to a Pew Research Center survey.

On the other hand: President Trump will leave the the White House with his lowest approval rating ever.

Donald Trump has been rejected by the Pentagon in his request for an elaborate military-style farewell parade according to officials who spoke with Defense One.

The president, who has not yet truly conceded his loss to President-elect Joe Biden aside from two video statements following the insurrection of the Capitol on January 6, has additionally chosen to refuse to participate in several of the many traditional exercises in the handoff of power to the incoming administration.

Trump will not be leaving a letter of advice to the new president or hosting a one-on-one conversation, according to several news sources, such as CNN.

Trump, who was impeached for the second time last Wednesday for "inciting an insurrection," has said he will not be attending Biden's inauguration and will instead be at his Mar-a-Lago residence or on the golf course nearby.

Traditionally, the Department of Defense hosts an Armed Forces Farewell tribute as a president's term or terms end. The ceremonies include members of the military meeting or visiting with the president in person and the president usually taking the time to thank the servicemen and women for the time under his presidency.

Trump has been a big fan of the jingoistic military parades during his presidency. One such event in 2019 on Independence Day cost taxpayers millions for a flyover and tanks to roll through the nation's capital.

So long, asshole!

Melania Trump departing White House with lowest favorability of her tenure

Deep down, she knew she was not an American.

I don't see no bright, blue blooms. You mean the light-purple flowers? Are you blind, too? No blue in photo at all!

Go look at Robert Runyon’s native plants photographs. Even in black and white or sepia the images are masterful works of art. They are available online.
