It’s a telling indicator of media desensitization that the US government’s ongoing program of murder on the high seas—which according to the perpetrators has killed fourteen (14) people this week— is no longer a subject for much serious or sustained news coverage.

good day for resignations mr president

Today, the people of #Hungary toppled their tyrant. America, our return to democracy requires our full attention. We can see it can be done!

‘Everything is gone’: Israel destroys entire villages in Lebanon

I love this photo of astronaut Christina Koch looking back at Earth from Artemis II. She's the first woman to see the full sphere of our beautiful planet. Welcome home to the crew, and thank you for reminding us of all we can discover together.

Earlier, I posted a video of a lady octopus throwing rocks at an annoying male. It has been brought to my attention the video was AI. Since I abhor AI, I’ve deleted that post. Please enjoy this real video of a lady octopus throwing stuff at annoying males with my apologies.

The shared excitement over NASA’s recent mission compared to the general indifference to SpaceX missions speaks to the power of something seen as the product of communal human effort rather than just the ego and avarice of one obnoxious dork.

Cambodia is recognizing the life-saving contributions of a rat named Magawa with a statue. The late rat sniffed out landmines for a non-profit group, and in a short career helped find more than 100.

apparently today's a good day for this

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something. For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

pssst... are you registered to vote? The deadline in Ohio is TODAY. And here's the truth- the only way we get out of this mess is at the ballot box. Every single vote counts. ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️ www.ohiosos.gov/elections/re...

The founders believed that if a madman became president, members of Congress would serve the country’s interest and remove him from office. That seemed a reliable system to safeguard the republic. Boy, did they screw up.

“The harms that #MVPSouthgate would bring to communities in Virginia and North Carolina — higher utility bills, polluted waterbodies, and an increasingly unstable climate — are unnecessary, just as the project itself is unnecessary,” said Peter Anderson of Appalachian Voices.

Donald J. Trump remains President of the United States of America because Republicans find raping children less offensive than taxing billionaires. #RemoveTrump

Robert Mueller, a Vietnam veteran with a bronze star for heroism, and a purple heart has passed away. Perhaps his biggest honor was trying to save our democracy. I REFUSE to let him be a punchline for our deranged president. Robert Mueller was a hero and may he rest in peace and watch over us. Amen.

Dear World, Don’t help him. Oppose him. Defy him. Embarrass him. Arrest him, if you’d like. We’re not with him. Sincerely, Decent Americans

I really don’t want to hear about how Democrats are projected to take control of the House and Senate. We’ve been here before and look what happened. I want to hear people telling folks to get out and vote to make it happen.

It would only be assumption number one for a freshman IR student.

Creepier and creepier

The world hath no fury like a narcissist scorned

Trump and Republicans are: -Trying to ram through a bill that would disenfranchise millions of voters -Considering an EO that would allow Trump to take over elections -Proposing to station ICE agents at polling places They’re trying to rig their way to victory. We won’t let them.

Good morning! #OceanDevotion sunrises are back! Here are your 2 minutes of peace & calm.

I'm begging my fellow politicians, Illinoisans, and Americans to realize that right now, we aren't fighting over policy or political party. We're fighting over whether we're going to be a country rooted in empathy and kindness — or one rooted in cruelty and rage.

This is murder. ICE routinely deposits released detainees far from their home just to be cruel. It’s standard practice. To do this to a blind man on a wet cold winter day in Buffalo is to know you are potentially sending him to his death.

The defining face of the first day of the full-scale invasion is Ukrainian marine Vitalii Skakun. He heroically sacrificed his life by blowing up a bridge in Henichesk to slow the advancing Russian columns.

“Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks.Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I believe in giving credit where it’s due. Hang the entire Gorsuch concurrence in the Louvre. Master class in telling your colleagues they’ve lost their fucking minds.

La méthode employée par Trump et ses sbires s’apparente à celle de gangsters. « On attise les masses, on excite leur colère, puis on la canalise vers un bouc émissaire jusqu’à les pousser à lyncher des gens. » Tout est là devant nos yeux «Rien n’est caché. » @magdalineboutros.bsky.social

She has been in Dilley for over 120 days. Her and Liam’s stories are one of thousands. What the Trump admin is doing to our children is depraved and unconscionable. Dilley must close. #FreeOurChildren www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Seriously? NBC couldn’t hire an intern or anyone to do a little research about each of the countries introduced in the Olympics opening ceremony so the audience would learn something? Instead, we just get Sean White talking about himself?

Since I'm pretty sure this administration doesn't realize this document exists, it would be worth downloading the 2020 Intelligence Community Assessment on foreign threats to the U.S. elections before it disappears, which includes the following finding: www.dni.gov/index.php/ne...

21° degrees. Sleet. Snow. The walk does not stop. The Monks are still moving forward, from Raleigh, NC, on their route to Washington, DC. This is what commitment looks like. The walk must continue — even when the road is hard. Peace isn’t passive — it’s walked. #WalkForPeace ##DefendersOfDemocracy

Caught some of CBC Newsworld's interview with former Greenlandic MP, Tillie Martinussen. She is amazing. I hope that segment gets saved and uploaded. Here's another interview.

Deutsche Bank here with the good stuff. Game on.

Congress can stop ICE. Congress can block the use of force in Greenland. In other words, in this crisis, Congress can act to support civil liberties at home and free nations abroad. To fail to act would be to be complicit in a dreadful outcome.

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.

The High Seas Treaty, which will allow countries to establish protected areas outside territorial waters, takes effect today after 20yrs of talks. Scientists like Sylvia Earle call it a “turning pt” for biodiversity. Protected areas raise fish catch nearby too www.newscientist.com/article/2512...
