We are heading to D.C. on Monday, March 16, with our attorneys for oral arguments in our lawsuit seeking to restore $3 billion in federal environmental justice grants across the country. https://loom.ly/nrqyujM

#Garden2k26 A suitable germination of my San Marzano peppers (58% planting cell germination right now, though one cell ended up with two seeds, so that skews it a bit). Cucumbers, of course, are insane, Waltham squash doing fair. Peppers? Not so much. Nor yet on the artichokes or beans.

"As women, we have no state; as workers, we have no state; as migrants, we have no state; as Indigenous peoples, we have no state. "When we say we have no state, we mean there has never been, and will never be, a state that represents us, protects our interests, or prioritizes our well-being." 🧵⬇️

The Empress Plotina was the wife of Trajan and Hadrian’s adoptive mother. She grew very fond of Hadrian and played an instrumental role in the development of Hadrian's career. When Plotina died, she was deified, and Hadrian had a basilica built in her honour at Nemausus. #InternationalWomensDay ♀️

A Cat’s Life (Wonder) | Gérard DuBois

Me: I love books. I will never stop buying them. I will die buried beneath them like a cairn. Me while packing: whose shitass idea was this?

The weirdest thing that anyone has ever said about me is "That dude believes everything he writes.". LIke...yes? Yes I do?

So far, 24x San Marzano tomatoes, 6x pepperonici, 6x red hot cherry peppers, 3x cayenne, 3x sweet banana, and 6x white knight eggplant in seed cells on my janky DIY Harbor Freight grow station I made.

This week, in the Prairieland case, Texas prosecutors are attempting to equate anarchism with terrorism. While masked thugs in plainclothes assault and abduct people around the country. While bombs destroy hospitals and elementary schools in Iran. crimethinc.com/Prairieland

If you 1) are a misanthrope whose only experience with "humanity" is Western (white) capitalism and 2) a reddit r/atheist antitheist who believes that all religion, everywhere, needs to be stamped out in an ethnocentrist triumph of secularism I will absolutely not consider your views on AI, at all.

I've been waiting for the Vengabus for 25 years.

"Why do you want to leave work early?" "Because I like my cats more than I like you." "Fair."

It must be nice to be a person so devoid of intelligence, logic, and critical thinking skills that you genuinely believe "love literally everything the Iranian government does" and "invade Iran, overthrow their government, and kill hundreds of children" are the only two options available to you.

I wrote about the water crisis in West Virginia and the “they’re getting what they voted for” reactions. open.substack.com/pub/appodlac...

shockingly people are capable of simultaneously, 1. Hating their government 2. Hating the people who bomb and sanction their country, making regular life impossible and murdering members of their family, even more

When you attack me in Dungeons & Dragons this is who you're rolling against (my character is a tabaxi ranger based on my cat).

In 1923, SCOTUS held that US taxpayers do not have standing to sue the government for their taxes being spent in an illegal or unconstitutional manner. SCOTUS said it would violate Separation of Powers if taxpayers could sue to control how taxes were spent. That's been US law ever since.

Fuck this administration. Fuck imperialism. Fuck the Occupation. No war with Iran.

Trump's kidnapping of Nicolás Maduro did nothing to change the distribution of power in Venezuela. It only put the pieces in place to loot the country of its natural resources for the benefit of elements of the US ruling class. The attack on Iran is meant to do the same. crimethinc.com/IranWar2026

Dozens of U.S. strikes on Iran. Dunno what to say now other than my thoughts are with the Iranian civilians under fire. What a nightmare.

For the Israeli government, the entire Mideast is the West Bank, now. This attack shows that they are determined to treat hundreds of millions the way they treat Palestinians. In the US, Trump's decision to declare war without consulting congress shows that he already sees himself as a dictator.

A good read.

You know what's really cool about this whole New York State lawsuit against Valve is that Kathy Hochul is in the Epstein files.

Maybe now that people are paying attention to Kansas, you'll stop telling trans people we're overreacting. The federal government is now *requiring* trans inmates to undergo conversion "therapy," which the UN has recognized as a form of torture.

Finally thumbing through Katja Vogt's "Law, Reason, and the Cosmic City".

The Tapajós region, home to the Arapiuns, Apiaká, Arara, Borari, Jaraqui, Cara Preta, Cumaru, Maytapu, Munduruku, Tapajós, Tapuia, Tupayú, Tupi, & Sateré-Mawé, was Invaded by Portugal & occupied by the Brazilian state. Intensive shipping would destroy the river ecosystem and end their way of life.

President Lula of the Workers' Party was the one who privatized the river and was supporting Cargill and other major corporations, but widespread protest and occupations forced his government to suspend and more recently fully revoke that decree! news.mongabay.com/short-articl...

Huge agro-corporation Cargill was taking over the entire Tapajós, a major Amazonian river, for shipping its forest-destroying soy and corn. Indigenous action forced them to step down! Occupying ships, grain terminals, factories, and offices: direct action gets the goods!

My floor at home is a lot less comfortable than my floor in Rhode Island was.

Ain't no drama like Pagan drama, man.

did i read this classic, or did i watch it on wishbone

Imagine threatening to murder people because you don't like what a podcaster sai- Oh wait.

Surely Gallup's recent decision to buck nearly a century of polling regarding politicians approval rating has nothing to do with the near 1/4 billion dollar contracts it receives from the Federal government. Surely not.

The US cutting off oil to Cuba is truly one of the most depraved acts it is possible to imagine. Hospitals will close, food production will collapse, people will starve. It is urgent for US citizens, and every sane person, to oppose this barbarism with all their might.

"It's worse for the regional water supply if Google DOESN'T build a 3 million square foot data center and use over eight million gallons of water a day, actually." is a hell of a take.

McKee's proposing a 17-year delay to Rhode Island's renewable energy goals. Democrats don't care about you, and they want you to burn.

"These were not merely acts of charity. They were counter-institutions — infrastructure designed to keep people connected, informed, cared for, and protected in a system built to fragment and isolate them." truthout.org/articles/ant...

"If you don't vote (for Democrats) you're at best maga adjacent." Bro your Democrats are in the files.

Crowd Control: Appeasement, Vanguardism, and the General Strike crimethinc.com/2026generals... Participants in the resistance to ICE operations in the Twin Cities reflect on the lessons of the strikes of January 23 and January 30, looking for ways to expand and strengthen the movement.

Middle age is the acoustic versions of the songs you listened to twenty years earlier.

I love Wildmender so much.

Whelp it finally happened after 20 years. My buddy's World of Warcraft guild realized he's been stealing from the guild bank. "It's take one, leave one."

Under Obama or Trump: these agencies were not designed to keep people safe, but to deliver and carry mass repression. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

If I don't shovel the sidewalk in front of my house within three hours after the snow ends, I can get cited and fined. My city? They can take two days before starting to bother to plow the residential side streets with no problem.

As @prisonculture.bsky.social often says, two thirds of people in this country did not vote for this scumbag and his fascist goon squad, and yet Very Serious People are always telling us that everyone must only appeal to and placate the third who did.

It's really cool how my city just decides to not even make an attempt at snow removal, leaving neighborhoods entirely encased in heavy ice-snow on the road. Can I bill the council for lost wages due to their unwillingness to provide basic municipal services?
