Evidently landlord and lawyer were some rough slander 250 years ago, maybe we still have some things in common with the founding fathers

my favorite thing about this movie is that it pissed off Nixon so badly (by having a song about how conservatives are obstructionist) that he tried to not only have the song cut but also get the negatives for that scene destroyed and they only added the song back in decades later

it’s on YouTube now though! So you can watch the musical number that made Nixon do a whiny baby tantrum!

[beemovieerotica]

shout out to the film’s editor who back in the 1970’s completely hid the negatives for that scene for decades allowing us to have it restored for the 2002 re-release

[animate-mush]

It’s a banger of a song too

[sparklylynntastic]

Because my kids love historical musicals

“You were but little orcas. Now you’re a big pod of resident orcas ready to dominate the Salish Sea!”

One of the best quotes of the 3 speeches given. 🤣

It’s hyper specific to our region.

2/5 of my kids are gay and 1/5 is bisexual.

Let’s see if the other 2 end up as members of the Alphabet Soup.

Happy pride.

This Pride Month, we’re celebrating the beauty of diversity above and below the surface. The ocean is full of vibrant life in every color imaginable. It reminds us that nature thrives when everyone has space to belong.

Environmental advocacy and the LGBTQ+ rights movement share a common purpose: protecting vulnerable communities, caring for the spaces we all call home, and creating a world where we all can flourish. Our world is brightest when people can live authentically, love freely, and be embraced for who they are. From rainbow reefs to shimmering tides, diversity makes our blue planet stronger, healthier, and more inspiring.

Here’s to protecting our ocean, uplifting every voice, and honoring the colorful communities that make this world so wonderful.

My son graduated from his farm program.

“Known for

Being hilarious, brilliant, and unique. A willing soul who finds ways to be all-in during all experiences.

Creative thinking, shows great introspection, thorough thoughtful feedback, works to improve the experience for his buddy and all the buddies.

Uncanny ability to connect with even the most difficult or resistant, can match the mood of others and find ways to naturally draw them in”

They also mentioned he worked very well with the younger kids in school groups who would visit the farm on field trips.

[overlord-fire-bubble]

Congratulations!

[pacificnorthwestdoodles]

Thank you! He’s very proud of his accomplishments. He invited all of his friend from the Freedom Farm and all of the staff to his graduation party.

He walks with his graduating class on 6/10/2026.

[overlord-fire-bubble]

Eyyyy nice. 2 days before my graduation. I hope the farm homies had good snacks at the party

[sparklylynntastic]

Happy early graduation!

They’re having a class barbecue on Wednesday. Then the graduation party is on Saturday. I’ll take pictures of the decorations and flower garlands I’m making for the party.
