Finally getting out occasionally to walk around the lake. Three nights, seven green herons! :-) #birds #birdphotography #greenheron #frogs #amphibians #nature

We need Colbert’s bold and frank commentary now as much as ever, and we need to stop corporations like CBS from cowing to political intimidation of this administration. Add your name to the petition to demand they reverse their decision and keep Colbert on air! sign.moveon.org/petitions/co...

Recently, I learned that birdsong awakens the seeds under the Earth. The famous mystic Rudolph Steiner has said that for seeds, plants, and trees to grow, birdsong is essential. open.substack.com/pub/summeris...

Sec. Pete Hegseth’s “infidel” tattoo in Arabic sends a troubling message. Gov’t officials should uphold religious neutrality, not alienate service members. Our leaders must respect all beliefs, not promote exclusion. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

After Hegseth argued “nobody was texting war plans," The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg responds: “That’s a lie. He was texting war plans, he was texting attack plans. When targets were going to targeted. How they were going to be targeted. Who was at the targets. When the next attacks were happening”.

Lee Bollinger is no wild-eyed catastrophizer. Pay heed.

This power grab is unprecedented, unbounded, and unconstitutional.

Have you read Night of Camp David? Check it out. The president thinks everyone is out to get him, wants to create a union with Canada, and will impose „tariffs [and] barriers“ against anyone who stands in the way. Oh, and no, force is not out of the question. @maddow.msnbc.com #books #politics.

I'm don't like sitting down to make phone calls or send texts. And I'm not esp. good at joining marches or protests. But I am good at writing, and I HAVE to do something, so I am drafting a letter to every member of congress. What is your most important issue? #politics #congress #constitution

I'm one of those knows-a-little-about-a-lot-of-things people. Always have been. Something hit me today, after all these years, and I now feel a strong sense of focus that has been missing. More to come! PLEASE don't support this group! www.whypetaeuthanizes.org?utm_source=s...

This early in the game, and I'm exhausted. debaumer.com/2025/01/30/i...

Yep.

Hoping this can serve as a kind of introduction, with more to come! :-) #cats #dogs #nokill #shelter #writer #editor #photographer #volunteer #fundraising debaumer.com/2025/01/30/w...

These days I am maintaining my sanity (well, you know) by spending my not-working time with my cats, photographing birds, and writing once again. More on the latter later, but the important things first. Meet Lottie and Macie:
