@wyden.senate.gov I note that WH has somehow been involved in the takedown of 2 bbc news leaders right after a j6 documentary which happens to correspond to emerging reporting on what epstein was up to with other in other countries. Leavitt had a comment that clinched it for me.

@gtconway.bsky.social something wonderful about a paperless order for a newspaper.

Good and sobering thought 💭

@idahogal1006.bsky.social I just read that even Grangeville Idaho (where my Dad grew up) had 100 people at their No Kings. Support your local librarian!

The crowd tonight in Norfolk, Virginia for Abigail Spanberger and Barack Obama. LET’S GO!!!

I'm attending Indivisible's event, “Indivisible Red & Rural Caucus October Call” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Happy to report that in the wake of the Annual Running of the Trash Cans, two lids were recovered from a trip down the side street. Forecast for today. Sunny, followed by rain, followed by thunder followed by snow. Must be late October in the mountains.

@kairyssdal.bsky.social It's remarkable how bad this administration is at throwing military parties. Am wondering 1) what the collateral damage to tires is going to be and 2) if any ordinance landed on public or private property that didn't go boom yet.

@spitewinter.bsky.social Is your header pic larch? (My alternative guess was one of the true cedars, but I think larch! I live in the mountains and western larch is doing it's turn yellow for fall thing. Love the thread.

Across all the major outlets — NYT, WSJ, WaPo, LAT, CNN, ABC, CBS, Fox News, NBC, CNBC, NPR, Bloomberg — the only outlet without a No Kings story on its home page is CBS News. For every other outlet, it's near the top. Even Fox News is running with "Nationwide unrest looms as thousands mobilize"

@wyden.senate.gov NO. The GOP shutdown can stand if they wanna crime like that. But please thank them for the incentive to vote them out.

@kenwhite.bsky.social Oriana released pre trial, community council meeting, I love my music and dance community.

@npr.org all of your "contact us" links on your web page throw up a nonsecure website message.

@altcdc.altgov.info I see Public Citizen just filed a lawsuit re: first amendment violations for forcing federal speech (email tags, web pages).

Lost the Bluesky poster (James F) who was today comparing two different Washington Post opinion pieces by a single writer. I will always value and remember the ❎"WA PO Op Ed" tag line. So subversive. On purpose or not. I'd quote post it but my laptop was overwhelmed! @rebelfema.altgov.info

Just checked the weather (thing you do all the time up here in the mountains). It's gonna be brrrdarkthirty the next couple of nights. Some put-away and prep chores come to mind for the electric mower, vehicle (including making sure the solar charger faces the best sunlight), and hayburners.

Garden season is coming to an end. For no good reason, I made a small treat this morning - bit of goat cheese that I had stored in a bag with fresh rosemary from the garden where I volunteer once a week. Delightful. (Tiny drizzle of honey ditto). Find free joy where ya can.

@coin-indivisible.bsky.social I see that the emergency Naked Bike Ride in Portland is also a protest.

@citizensforethics.org sure seems like an opportunity to go after cabinet members and slavish folks that pass on those messages for misuse of government equipment and violation of 18 USC Sec 1001, cost to be paid back per instance delivered? Civil?

I see DOE is banning the words climate change and emissions. Government Banned Words have derailed grants, sometimes out of context. I think we should have a banned words shout off (kind of like the pan banging during the pandemic). Just get out there and yell. EMISSIONNNNNNNNNNNS! DIVERSITY!

@sethcotlar.bsky.social quick note. Want to tell you how much I appreciate your posts, especially the recent ones. They matter.

Went to look up the history on it. Varied! It never saw service.

This morning I went to the community garden to help out (my task was digging carrots and my hands and shoes are dir-ty! We take home what we want, and the rest (this week) goes to the senior food pantry and to the cook at a youth camp. Gardening as resistance, anyone?

Wow. San Bernardino County Fire, Ontario, Barstow, Calfire, USFS [FR/Search and Rescue] THUNDERSTORM/MUDSLIDES:

@wyden.senate.gov recission.

@questauthority.bsky.social - if only you'd had this.

SCOTUS has allowed ICE’s discriminatory raids in LA for the time being. While I am closely monitoring the situation, know that EVERYONE has the right to: ❗️Remain silent ❗️Refuse entry without a valid search warrant ❗️Speak with an attorney Protect yourself and your loved ones by knowing your rights.

This is just amazing. Sign up!
