This can’t be a good sign to anyone but musk…

A fool and his money are soon parted…

A diver stumbles across a whale shark trapped in a commercial fishing line in a marine sanctuary that bans fishing, while the giant lies still while the rope is cut. The footage also shows the scale of a whale shark vs a human. [📹Smithsonian Channel] Original post

We need to legislate this Tesla feature out of existence. It doesn’t work and we shouldn’t let the company test it out on our roads. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I just voted YES on the biggest housing bill in more than 30 years. This bill will boost housing supply, bring down costs, and — for the first time ever — stop private equity from buying up single-family homes.

How sad and how scary…

This story has been so under-reported… so glad our favorite publication is taking on this troubling topic….:-)

So cool!

François Primeau, a UC Irvine professor, developed mathematical and computational ocean models that helped us understand the ocean's role in global climate. He was killed on his bike by someone driving a car. 🌊

Literally broke the law to write his name on public buildings

This is justice system under Agent Orange.

There are tons of surveillance cameras around that area. If anyone did anything, someone would know…

We need more of this in the USA… “NYC Mayor Mandani reveals a plan to allocate $122 million to hire an additional 1,000 teachers by 2027. This must be why they say socialism is so horrible. Rather than funding continuous foreign wars, tax funds are being redirected toward our educational system.”

Good morning from PDX! Mt. Hood Thursday evening for #MountainMonday. Have a beautiful day. 💙🫶🏻 #PNW #PDX #Oregon #MountainMonday #MtHood #Photography #Scape

Again…why is the GOP elected officials so impotent…are they in the Epstein files? Are they getting part of the grift into their super pacs or what kind of pay offs are they getting? How can GOP sit and do nothing about anything. Our “leader” destroyed our White House. Tobacco Road comes to mind.

Incredible. 123 all-time records broken today in #France 2 sites had peak temps of 44°C/ 111°F

The Epstein Files Transparency Act was signed into law, yet we still haven't seen all the files. Why isn't this law being enforced??

Love this! We’ve had no fireflies so far this June and that is depressing…

“The world is the closed door. It is a barrier. And at the same time it is the way through. …. Every separation is a link.” Simone Weil

Yep…it’s rich man’s world & we play by their rules…you’d think no one in GOP would risk association with a pedophile & it makes you wonder what kind of lifestyle they might be leading…how could anyone want to be in same room with some of these creepy men? Tks to Stormy, Mushroom Man grosses me out!

This is a time for analog attention.

Too funny…and yet so sad that so much money is being frivolously wasted while there are so many dire situations in the world at the moment…

There is a sunflower finally & these 3 little flowers are something else but I forget what. I feel like it’s really summer when there’s a sunflower, hummingbirds, & tons of gold finches. The finches love the sunflower seeds almost as much as thistle feeders. Love seeing them upside down.

Fading lilies are still pretty… so want some rain and hoping heat holds off.

WTF is wrong with people who want to kill everyone who isn’t “one” of them. Why would anyone in Jewish community want to launch genocidal attack? Old testament’s “eye for an eye” doesn’t match up with newer view of “turn the other cheek.” Religions sucks at this point. #goldenrule is best way

I thought this was on Point….

Seems Kushner’s are not welcome in some areas of the world…

🖊️That’s a picture of my stepdad reading my book shortly before his death. He was a prodigious reader, and as his health was failing told me, “I’m not ready to die, Earl, there are so many books I haven’t read yet! Happy Father’s Day, good man. You were one for the books.

When I die and get reborn as a cat, you won't know it's me but there will be signs.

I miss seeing President Carter in these photos.

A handwritten letter from the old days when my dad died just a few days before #Fathersday. If I find the second page will post that in comments but for some reason I don’t see it. “Barney” was my art teacher - never knew her first name or her maiden name and she did not note her Dad’s name.

What do we file this under?

Wow!

Who knew…

Truth…

All the countries playing in the World Cup have universal healthcare. Except the United States 🇺🇸

We have a war going on and prices through the roof and now he wants to arrest tourists in DC by military guys? This is mind boggling on so many levels. The White House looks like a disaster area. Why waste so much money when people are having a hard enough time?

Lost in a nightmare we can't awake from as a vicious TV president rages each night. Making real threats via Twitter. War crimes. Recklessly settling scores with no plan in his addled mind. This is leadership? #poetry #TheTrumpYears #poets #books
