This is the LEGO White House, with some accessories I ordered from one of the many LEGO-adjacent small businesses that make such things. That’s where the model of President Trump, the MAGA hat at his feet, and the American flags on black poles came from, which I ordered to accessorize the model a bit.
Not writing much lately because sadness has eaten all my words, but LEGO is a nice way to pass the time, and I thought some of you might like to see the pictures.
It’s an enjoyable build, with just a few places that are easy to mess up, and a lot of nice details, like the rose bushes.
Love it! Best wishes to you for a speedy recovery. I hope you can take comfort in the knowledge of how many people here appreciate your intellect, your perspective, and your honesty.
Thank you for you perseverance through difficulties. I've been there and remember being dismayed that I couldn't think my way out of depression....like trying to lift myself off the ground. But it passed, eventually. I enjoy your thoughts and perspective. It always cheers me when I read young people who love America and haven't been taken in by the Marxist left. Two of my 3 kids have Usher syndrome and were born with hearing loss. They've done well with aids but now have to face gradually losing vision from retinitis pigmentosa. We have to play the best hand we can with the cards we're dealt. They will...and so are you. Bravo on the cool Legos and even better additions. Cheers!
