  • What a beautiful painting, thank you for sharing. I’ve recently moved to the southwest and fallen in love with the area, what little I’ve seen. The colors and textures really work together to capture the feeling of the place, and of seeing a shower roll by and the race to stay ahead of it and stay dry. I’ve never rode a horse, but looking at this painting I can’t help but wish I was riding alongside them, trying to get home before we were soaked.






  • It’s only ever those specific things, because if society actually LIKED or WANTED those things anymore they’d be doing them and it wouldn’t need to be “conserved”.

    Oh, you want to keep your traditional folk dance or scarf or goat-herding technique? Great! Those damned melting pot liberals love that stuff. They eat it up. They want more cultures to explore. What they don’t want is to be told they’re going to hell for who they love, or that child labor is good or any of the other insane things “conservatives” want to conserve.


  • You’re again correct, they use a lovely little modifier we call in English “And”. It lets you do two things as one thing. So you can legalize something, and regulate it, in one legislative action. But you couldn’t regulate something, and then legalize it, because if the government is regulating something they’ve defacto legalized it. If it’s illegal it can’t be regulated because the only regulation allowed for illegal things is “none at all ever”.
