jack vettriano. scottish painter. self taught.

while he does paint women for the male gaze (which male painter doesn't?) i do like some of the fanciful nature of his scenes. and i like the way he paints men. in suits.

maybe i just like him b/c i think he's a shoe fetishist & i could make him my sub. 😉

BEAVER?? DID YOU SAY BEAVER???

Good morning. This is your final chance of the year to bask in lunar splendor. Tonight is the last supermoon—aka when the moon is full and its orbit is at its closest to Earth—until October 2025. This one is called “Beaver Moon,” because right around now is when beavers fortify their dams for the winter.

Folks.. look this up.. I grew up under the ever watchful whiteman eye of J. Edgar Hoover.. who STILL has his name ensconced on the building (!) RULED like a dictator over the FBI.. for decades, through several presidencies. Please know that our history is messy. We want a better day? We better know our true past.
But what about dismantling the mobsters?. italians/irish.. other "immigrants.." were getting in on the big whiteman profits, and FBI was tasked with ending the.. "competition.."

I agree! Love has waxed cold and everyone (for the most part) is for themselves.

I nominate myself CoSo’s Secretary of Simmering Rage.
