"The greatest danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark." - Michelangelo Buonarroti
His masterpieces in sculpture, painting, and architecture have left an indelible mark on Western art.

@thejackhopkins@abqkat1 An awesome tribute, Jack. Alexei Navalny was the definition of a martyr. People willing to forfeit their life for the betterment of humanity. ♥️
Today marks the 84th anniversary of the first-ever #SocialSecurity check, and Republicans are celebrating by trying to cut your benefits.
Instead, Congress should protect and expand our Social Security system.
Republicans are hell-bent and determined to cut Social
Security and Medicare. We CANNOT ALLOW that to happen. We must vote for Democrats up and down the ballot in November. IT must be a decisive victory. Retweet. #resisters#bluewave2024#SocialSecurity
In 1946 WWII veteran Maceo Snipes was shot in his back by the KKK the day after he became the first Black person to cast a vote in Taylor County, Georgia.
After he was shot, Mr. Snipes walked three miles to the hospital with his mother. For six hours doctors left him waiting and bleeding. By the time he was seen, he needed a blood transfusion. The doctors said the hospital had no “black blood.” Snipes died two days later.
This is why I will vote in every election. The day I stop voting is the day I stop breathing. #FreshVotesBlue #BlackHistoryWithLana
My thoughts on Taylor Swift. Also, I'm not Swiftie. I own NONE of her music, although I do like some of it. My granddaughter loves it.
Haters should continue reading:
Taylor donated $1 million to Tennessee tornado relief.
She donates to food banks in all the cities she tours, including:
In Arizona, Swift’s donation in March allowed the network to send several tractor-trailers filled with 40,000 pounds of fresh produce to its member food banks, said Terri Shoemaker, a spokesperson at the nonprofit organization. Plus, it bolstered funding for programs aimed at combating hunger, such as helping eligible children gain access to free and reduced-price school meals and senior citizens obtain food stamps.
Seattle-based Food Lifeline, which received a donation from Swift when she played in the city in late July, will likely use the funds to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as food popular in ethnic communities, said spokesperson Mark Coleman.
The singer donated to Second Harvest of Silicon Valley, which works with more than 400 partners to feed 500,000 people each month, ahead of her stop in Santa Clara, California.
Swift’s team contacted Three Square Food Bank when the singer was in Las Vegas for her second “Eras Tour” performance.
“They said they wanted to make a gift to help the areas that they were performing in,” Beck tells https://t.co/LlLeQfyc36. “For us, that was a pretty amazing day.”
Swift has now donated to the Houston Food Bank twice: First in 2017, during Hurricane Harvey relief efforts, and again in April of this year when she stopped in Houston on her tour.
In hopes of catching Swift's attention when she performed in nearby Arlington, the Tarrant Area Food Bank launched an Instagram campaign, temporarily changing their name to the “Taylor Area Food Bank.” The organization received a phone call from Swift’s representatives with the news that Swift would donate to the food bank on the day of her first Arlington concert.
She also is a staunch supporter of friends, cancer patients, sexual assault survivors, disaster relief organizations and additional food banks
Swift gave $100,000 bonuses to her tour truck drivers and pays her other employees well.
She's scandal free and she's EARNED over 1.1 billion dollars. She's young, rich, beautiful and happens to be a Democrat. The lunatics on the far right are calling her a PSYOP. They're comparing her to the devil and it's absolute LUNACY. This is because she has millions of fans who adore her and they're afraid the fans will all vote Democrat. THAT IS THE ISSUE.
She fell in love with a football player and the media is exploiting that. The MEDIA is putting their faces front and center during all of these football games. She's just a girl, going to a game to cheer on her boyfriend.
Far right "personalities" like Nick Adams and Charlie Kirk are degrading her on a daily basis. Calling her ugly and talentless and a horrible role model.
Meanwhile on the right......
Lauren Boebert gave her boyfriend a hand job and got felt up at a children's play, while vaping and you didn't hear any of them criticize her.
I'm so sick of the goddamned hypocrisy. It's sickening. Truly. Bunch of emasculated man-babies. They're truly frightened of a powerful, beautiful woman.
