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
Sky Dancing 
Isn’t that photo from 188 years ago cool? Be sure to see the other images at the link.
Gorgeous!!
I remember about 2 years ago pre-covid sitting at my clinic waiting for the doctor drinking some coffee. A woman walked in with a noose on her t-shirt and I was shaken badly by it. This city is about 70 percent black and so the clinic staff pretty much represents the black majority in its nurses, guards, doctors, etc. and it’s a big clinic. So, the woman at the coffee shop saw me looking all trembly and asked what was wrong. I told her that skinny little blonde in the brown t-shirt has what looks like a noose on it. She walked to get a look at her and sure enough, that was what was on the t-shirt. The woman from the coffee stand–who was black–came back and said I can see you’re all shook up about this and it’s okay. Don’t let the bad ones get to you. She’s been my buddy ever since. Whenever I go to the clinic, she waves and we always have a cup of coffee after my appointments. Some people are just so trifling they’re a waste of oxygen.
I’ve never wanted to punch anyone so badly as I once did the neighborhood bully “Bubba” transplant from Texas for bullying my sister and her kindergarten friends.6
One last quack:
Let’s set aside the fact that he apparently has never read the Constitution or the Bill of Rights, exactly which religion is he advocating for? Baptists don’t think they have the same religion as Catholics.
I forgot that he was accused by QAnon of praying to Satan in some church in Nebraska. So to paraphrase SNL’s Church Lady, “He wants only one religion in the US? Could it be …Satan?!!”
where do Mormons fit in?
Every time I see pictures of that wonderful little girl, serious like she knows she’s walking into every history book, dressed carefully in her Sunday best by her mom, acting like it’s normal to be surrounded by beefy guys making sure she’s okay. What a moment.
