It's 1991, and a republican president is embroiling us in a bullshit war in the Middle East.

Ordering a military strike on a sovereign nation without an AUMF from Congress is unconstitutional and impeachable.
At least when Bush attacked Iraq, he fed Congress the falsified justification first. This mf skipped that step.
Everybody understands the “but their nukes” claim is entirely bogus. Even Gabbard said so.
The American First sect of MAGA was lied to. The No Foreign Wars faction was lied to. Our allies were lied to. But Netanyahu wanted this, so he got it. Crooks hang together.

I wish there were some secret to hummingbird photography that I could share and market. But the reality is that they do what they want. If you want to get photos of them, you just have to be there. They’re free, and that’s why I love them.

The man who made me the photographer I am today. This is the first photo I ever took (aged 5); it's no surprise that of all potential subject matter that could have grabbed my attention at that age, I chose him. He passed away in 2006 when I was in my mid-twenties, and what I wouldn’t give some days to take just one more photo of him. Thank you, #Dad, for all the gifts you gave me, including a shared passion for photography ❤️
@bengillam haha! One of my favorite scenes from that movie.
A photo that I snapped an hour ago of the San Francisco #NoKings protest. I estimate about 150,000 people in total.
Everybody is a star. Thank you for being one and shining so brightly. Rest in Power, Sly Stone. 🙏🏿
Bill Atkinson was one of the most brilliant, imaginative, and compelling people I ever had the privilege to work with. His vision touched every device you use today. And his heart, his open love and humanity, exceeded all of that.
Here’s rare audio of Bill Atkinson talking about HyperCard at a 1987 NY Mac Users’ Group meeting, courtesy of Charles Mann’s wonderful Powersharing Series. https://soundcloud.com/thepowersharingseries/ps165-clip-sculley-atkinson-hypercard
