Another STUNNING image from JWST, this time of the Red Spider Nebula—the vast, wispy, gaseous remains of a now-dead star, the white dwarf core still glowing in the centre.

It's been 33 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress. Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.

Speaker Johnson should be removed for violating the Constitutional rights of AZ-2, and by extension the rights of all Americans by keeping the House adjourned. The People have business to attend to! Administrate the oath and let all go on record on releasing the Epstein files!

Im dead 😂😂😂

Might be catching these babies tomorrow! Fingers crossed!

Nothing is more important to Mike Johnson than protecting pedophiles. He will refuse to bring Congress back as long as possible. Johnson started this shit back in July and August thinking America would forget about The Epstein Files. We did not forget then and we will not forget now #ProudBlue

Video shows rescuers pulling a Palestinian boy from the rubble of his home in Gaza City. Israeli forces attacked the house on Thursday after the approval of a ceasefire agreement with Hamas.

- Rep. Hortman was killed - Gov. Whitmer had to live under FBI protection for a year - Speaker Pelosi’s home was invaded - Judge Goodstein’s house burned to the ground as she watched her family jump from 2 floors to safety - Rep. McIver was arrested - AG James is being indicted It’s a war on women

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square. Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files. Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

Gotta love never being allowed to finish a single sentence. As well as being told "I can hear just fine. I'm just ignoring you." after being asked what I said over and over again.

Greta Thunberg releases a video describing the conditions faced by Palestinian adults and children in Israeli custody after her release.

Good morning. 🐸💚 We stand with Portland -- and with this protester in particular -- meeting fascism with courage and creativity. Never underestimate the power of imagination in the face of repression. Stay froggy.

In her posthumous Netflix episode Famous Last Words, Jane Goodall reflects on life, hope, and humanity’s duty to heal the planet. With wit & sorrow, she imagines sending Trump, Putin, Xi, and Netanyahu “off on Musk’s spaceship.” It’s a final, profound rebuke of ego & evil, over empathy & kindness 🤍🕊️

Major respect for Diego Vazquez Galindo who was on the Fair Lady last night.

Fair Lady has been taken from the Global Sumud Flotilla as well. That’s hundreds of peaceful aid bringers kidnapped from international waters.

Today the #FreedomFlotilla Coalition set sail with roughly 100 people aboard 'Conscience' - with many healthcare workers & journalists. Our goal is to break Israel’s illegal siege, to provide international correspondents chances to report from #Gaza, & deliver urgently needed medical support.

The Captain Nikos has also been taken. #Sumud #Flotilla

Florida of the Global #Sumud Flotilla also boarded.

All In of the Global #Sumud Flotilla has been boarded in international waters.

EMERGENCY: ISRAEL ATTACKS GSF Israel has attacked the Global Sumud Flotilla in international waters. People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and the Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon. 1 of 2

Get eyes on the Global Sumud Flotilla #Gaza www.youtube.com/live/Hd-V93t...

Israel is deliberately blocking this aid from reaching millions of people they are intentionally starving in the midst of a genocide—funded by your tax dollars—and illegally kidnapping people who try to help.

These boats are carrying food, baby formula and medical supplies—items that are desperately needed in Gaza. International representatives have independently verified the cargo on each ship. They pose no harm. It's only aid.

On the Gaza flotilla live stream, one by one, boats are intercepted by IDF & blasted with water cannons until comms are jammed & the feed for each boat goes down. Israel is illegally kidnapping civilians on international waters, & they're preventing the world from witnessing.

Activists on board a flotilla of vessels sailing toward Gaza said they were prepared for the Israeli navy to intervene as they approached the besieged Palestinian territory on Wednesday, after a tense night in the Mediterranean Sea. https://to.pbs.org/4gSmMG3

Pritzker: “ICE is running around the Loop harassing people for not being white. Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States. Now, ICE is making it commonplace.”

Resistance isn’t always the the big things. Learning is resistance. Reading is resistance. Taking care of yourself is resistance. Not watching certain shows / buying certain brands is resistance. Resistance is maintained in 1000s of tiny choices people every day. Do what you can where you can.

Disney/ABC put Kimmel back on air. Sinclair & Nexstar are blocking him. These are state-licensed stations funded by ads, not Disney. Pressure advertisers, file FCC complaints, and push back on corporate censorship. #FreeSpeech #NoKings #Kimmel

My love letter to emergency medicine and the fire service. Published on February 11, 2026. Available for preorder. #paramedic #author #books

I'm so embarrassed to be an American right now. Donald Trump is a senile old codger, standing before the United Nations, reading a speech clearly written by an alt right lunatic and a bunch of oil and gas lobbyists. Well done, U.S. voters. You really fucked this one up.

Here’s my recommendations on history books to have in your library. (Full list written in Instagram comments / on YouTube)

Canceled my Disney+ subscription. Money talks and they damn sure are going to listen

With all the media censorship going on it’s more important than ever to have physical copies of the media you love. Even if it’s just one book or movie a month. Buy used when you can and save money

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target

We stand with those who exercise their right to free speech. The irony of #ABC and the #FCC trying to silence Jimmy Kimmel on the day the Constitution was signed in 1787 is not lost on us. Here’s the 1st amendment again, because obviously Brenden Carr and Almin Karamehmedobic didn’t pay attention.

Mental health break brought to you by Ralphie.

Video shows a Global Sumud Flotilla boat struck by a drone at Tunisia’s Sidi Bou Said port, causing fire damage on the main deck. The vessel was carrying members of the flotilla’s steering committee.

Do not give up. The path may be uncertain, but the destination is very clear. Evolution is undefeated.

A sea turtle surfacing by a MASSIVE school of rays near Clearwater, Florida a couple days ago. Another post into the BluSky void. Maybe 2 or 3 people will see this one and my time won't have been wasted. I'll keep trying a little longer. #nature #animals #amazing #wildlife #awesome #ocean

If you enjoy… Weekends Safe working conditions Retirement benefits Paid vacations Breaks at work Sick leave Paid holidays … then you’re part of the labor movement. Happy Labor Day.

We want to apologize if it feels like we’ve been venting a lot lately. It’s just hard to ignore that nearly every move from this administration seems to be illegal, unlawful, or outright unconstitutional and yet nothing happens.

#Michigan #Republicans just dropped an 800-pg budget bill on us w/60 minutes to read it - it cuts multiple health programs like Plan First, Centering Pregnancy, and the Prenatal Infant Support Program, it eliminates funding for permanent supportive housing and the office of community violence,...1/2

Kilmar Abrego Garcia prayed with his family and embraced his wife before being detained again on Monday by immigration authorities. He and his family are being unlawfully persecuted only because the infant in the WH can't admit he was wrong. Shame on Trump and his minions for this! #OnYourSide

Chi miigwetch to the Miccosukee and Seminole peoples!!

Serotonin break.

My wallet feels this extensively today. Just ordered a minisplit for the house 😱

No book, song, or museum collection can adequately portray how bad slavery was. But brave works can open a light on our past that is hard to put out. If you are angry about the Smithsonian whitewash, we recommend watching (or reading!) The Underground Railroad. #theycanteraseitall

“‘I refuse to sign away my dignity as a duly elected representative just so Republicans can control my movements and monitor me with police escorts,’ Collier said in a statement that called her a ‘political prisoner’ for refusing Republican ‘surveillance protocol.’” www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...
