The Sky Dancing banner headline uses a snippet from a work by artist Tashi Mannox called 'Rainbow Study'. The work is described as a" study of typical Tibetan rainbow clouds, that feature in Thanka painting, temple decoration and silk brocades". dakinikat was immediately drawn to the image when trying to find stylized Tibetan Clouds to represent Sky Dancing. It is probably because Tashi's practice is similar to her own. His updated take on the clouds that fill the collection of traditional thankas is quite special.
You can find his work at his website by clicking on his logo below. He is also a calligraphy artist that uses important vajrayana syllables. We encourage you to visit his on line studio.

“RESIST, INSIST, PERSIST, ENLIST.” - HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON
Why doesn’t Vice know that cows are female?
For the same reason an old New Yorker article implied chickens actually had real mammary glands for breasts. City boys!
He’d probably have to hold ‘Mommy’s hand” while around them if he thought about it too hard.
I’m with you on this. The whole default male thing for animals drives me nuts. In this particular case though, the giant is a steer, neutered male, so “he” isn’t wrong, for once.
And it’s not “too fat” for slaughter as it says somewhere else. It’s too *big* for the machines.
I’m betting they’re wishing at this point they hadn’t neutered that calf. Can you imagine the genetics that could contribute to breeding programs? Maybe with some of the somatic cell + egg technology they have these days, they could still do it.
Agree. It shows the ignorance — or lack of interest? — in biology (and probably science and learning in general). I rather wish we wouldn’t mess around with breeding animals, especially methane dispensers, for our convenience though I know humans have been doing that for thousands of years.
They called it a cow. Thanks for the info.
They did? And then used “he”? Fercryinoutloud.
I read it in the post.
LOL! The WaPo points out that a steer is not a cow, and that he’s only 4″ taller than usual for his breed.
Or Disney….that movie with the cow that looked like a cow, with udders, but it was done with a male voiced actor…
Grrr. The losses say practically nothing about black organizing. They say heaps about vote suppression.

A Defendant Shows up in Immigration Court by Himself. he’s 6.
Sick.
That’s a ProPublica story. They should get credit.

My guess is he lies as much in writing as he does in speech.
My guess is Mueller knows that that blocked phone number Don Jr. called was daddy.
OT, but a poignant essay on what was destroyed and how we can, possibly, renew it. Quixote, you may be interested in this if you haven’t heard of the author.
Bio-blindness. Good god, yes. I put up a purple martin house once, and there would be tornados of them swirling above the house. A neighbor remarked on the number of “sparrows.”
I just stood there, opening and shutting my mouth like a goldfish.
Sparrows look like purple martins? Reminds me of the time a climbing partner and I were hiking through an alpine meadow filled with lupine (oh the wondrous smell of blooming lupine in the sun!) — I remarked on how pretty they were and he said “What are lupine?”
I spread this around my friends back in Omaha and was hoping at least Vets there would show up …

As if there was any doubt. I think NY is prepared to go after him with state charges though.

Ayup. And they even make a big deal out of the 3 blank votes.

So, I was going to do a part two, but I got a major migraine…good night.
Hope you feel better soon.
I think this makes 41 now!
