My village has a basket weavers club. I started a basket in 2020, but never got around to finishing it. Pandemic and all. Yesterday, i FINALLY finished my basket!!!! I'm super proud--never give up! lol!
#Kentucky RB Ray Davis was so, so good today vs. UF. Showed NFL vision, feet, finishing toughness. 280 rush yards and 4 total TDs.
Inspiring journey too. Spent most of his childhood in foster care or homeless. Always humble and driven.

More than a century after the Battle of Blair Mountain, the legacy of state and corporate repression still looms large in #Appalachia #coal country. While the #UMWA and #IWW lost that battle, the locals didn't forget where the bodies of their kin are buried. They've kept that history alive through story and song.

"Coal Miner's Daughter" is a song written and recorded by American singer-songwriter #LorettaLynn. Considered Lynn's #signatureSong, it was originally released as a single in 1970 and became a number one hit on the #Billboard country chart. It was later released on an album of the same name. Produced by #OwenBradley, the song tells the story of Lynn's coal-mining father in rural #Kentucky during the #GreatDepression. Lynn, who was born in 1932.

🇺🇸 Décès à l'âge de 84 ans de Brereton C. Jones, ancien Gouverneur du #Kentucky de 1991 à 1995. A l'occasion de cette triste nouvelle découvrez notre page politique dédiée à cet état du sud-est des #USA 🖼️ https://www.election-politique.com/region.php?k=US&kr=USKY
Kentucky’s Governor Race Could Unwind Voting Rights Restoration
The state’s last Republican governor revoked an executive order that restored people’s voting rights. Advocates worry the GOP nominee in November’s election may do the same thing.
https://boltsmag.org/kentucky-rights-restoration-governor-election-beshear-cameron/
We all know elections are important.
Andy Beshear, #Kentucky governor, is running for reelection in November. He’s done a great job for the state and is an important Democratic hold for protecting reproductive rights, voting rights, and the right to read, be, and love what and who you want.

Some of you may remember the #Christofascist court clerk who refused to provide marriage certificates to same-sex couples in Kentucky eight years ago (a whole geological era in internet and U.S. news terms).
She's been ordered by a federal judge to pay a cool $100K to the couple who sued her for discrimination.
She fucked around, she found out, fuck her to hell.

Oh my word another concert? Ayup! This one at the MegaCorp Pavilion in Kentucky for the band CAKE. (Typing the name of this venue elicits a chuckle every. single. time.)
It was an extra special show as family and friends converged with most cooperative weather.
Things I learnt:
- CAKE is all caps. CAKE IS A SCREAM.
- They had a no photos policy for this concert and I was shook… What was I to do?! As a stickler for rules, I honored their wishes. Folks generally kept glowing screens to a minimum and it all swirled together for an excellent time.
- CAKE has an incredible fan base. Most everyone knows all the lyrics and the band weaves the choir into their show.
- They give away a tree at each concert. On this night Denice received one of the peach variety.
- You can see a map of all the trees they’ve given away at CAKE FOREST.
Aside: I feel a bit like disaster girl in this pic, that is if you replace a house on fire with happy folks.

I KNOW I shouldn't celebrate anything in ceramics BEFORE it goes through the kiln, so many opportunities for it to be destroyed.
Still, I'm in LOVE with this design of a cat spinning tunes on 2 turntables. Couldn't resist sharing this work in progress.
Hope you are having a great week!

"Words were the only things that seemed attainable to me. I could look them up in my grandmother’s dictionary and understand their meaning—unlike math, where, if I was stuck, I’d need someone to help me. The more words I learned, the more I realized that my own language could be deepened." —Jenisha Watts for The Atlantic

Fascinating to see they are requiring "proof of address" to receive water for a broken water supply in #Kentucky. Do people just randomly go wait in a line in sweltering heat to pick up water if they have water? Is there a black market for potable water in Kentucky I'm unaware of 🤔 😬 #disasters
