About Motley Michelle
A little bit about myself – probably more than you care to know… I am a Purdue University graduate, with a degree in Technical Illustration/Computer Layout & Design, 1987 – and have I seen changes – thank goodness punch cards went out (I originally was a programming major for 3 years). Extended studies in Earth Science Education, as well. I am passionate about photography as well as creating technical graphics, working in Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. ---------- In my younger days, I was a very active person throughout my entire life. My two true passions were guiding canyoneering trips in southern Utah for the Sierra Club (I LOVE slot canyons) as well as an avid rock climber. Now I am hooked on the internet, creating, learning and sharing. ---------- I am a firm believe of equal rights, human rights, and simply doing what is right. I am also an atheist. ---------- I am addicted to the news, especially politics. Political satire and humor is some of my favorite types of reads. I am very outspoken and will tell it like it is. trump is a clear and present danger to this country, and we must keep him out of the White House - preferably put him in prison for all the crimes he has committed while in office. The only thing that truly frightens me these days is the thought of trump being president for a 2nd term. ---------- There is one thing that I do have which trump wants but will never have. I am a member of the Mensa Society and my tested IQ is 160. trump once tried to claim his IQ was 200+, which is entirely laughable. That is "child prodigy" level, and we all know trump was no child prodigy. Personally, I place his IQ around 95-100. ---------- People, as a nature, tend to fear the unknown, or those that are different. These differences in people and societies is what makes us each unique – and there is much knowledge to be learned from ones differences. Don’t fear. Respect… and peace will happen. ---------- Do not fear the unknown… learn from the truth. And help stop the hate. “The future belongs to those who prepare for it today.” ~ Malcolm XAvatar Image
