Many of you need to get your shit together stat. You're becoming increasingly unhinged & frankly, indistinguishable from maga Take a walk, take a nap, take some meds, but get ahold of yourself ffs

Adelita Grijalva to be sworn in tomorrow at 4 p.m.

BIG NEWS: Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva will finally be sworn in as a member of Congress tomorrow. She is likely to be the 218th vote on the Epstein discharge petition, which would force a full vote to release the Epstein files in their entirety.

This tracks. From what I’ve seen, the heart of the resistance movement is within mainline religious denominations. At the last “No Kings,” I spoke with Methodists, Lutherans, Presbyterians, Catholics, and Baptists——all of whom were surprised to hear about each other being there.

"Yale’s most recent climate opinion poll shows that while more than two-thirds of Americans want stronger climate policy, less than a third of them say they see coverage of the issue in the media at least once a week." Media has been failing on this for many years. www.thenation.com/article/envi...

Actual text exchange with my husband. We are hauling my tender young potted trees into the house. Willie is a large Chaste Tree I grew from a cutting I procured at a Willie Nelson concert last summer. 🌱 Hoping y’all’s polar cold snap is going as well as can be expected.

We are seeing snowflakes in York County, SC, which was forecast for the mountains in a neighboring state pretty far away. #scwx

Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything." For once, I believe him.

Once the government reopens, precedent has already been set, if Speaker Mike Johnson refuses to swear in Adelita Grijalva, the newly elected representative from Arizona’s 7th District, someone else will. In Powell v. McCormack (1969), the

The point under this point is “we, through the primary process, are not that good at judging who is progressive and who is establishment.”

I work in DC and do this as my job. This reporting backs up what I am hearing directly. The Dems meet at 5pm it isn’t certain they will cave on the first vote. But it is very probable. They were going to cave last Thursday.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Wood is an important political issue.

Ok. Hard freeze coming in the next couple of days, so the gig is up for these limas. Time to get them all in.

Acretrader. I post this article frequently. Not enough people are aware of this. They're whole thing is to sell farmland to foreign investors.

Good morning everyone. Update on my risky green paint project. I want to move furniture in, fix the fireplace, build the bookshelves, hang pictures etc. But that will have to wait. We need the room to stage tools etc for work in other rooms. I think I like this chair here, though.

i will repeat: this is psychological torture for SNAP recipients.

I took kids on a ramble through the back hollow this evening and had a magic moment. Do you see it? Happy fall, y’all. #Fall 🍁

Hey #SCpol

The Trump Administration is preparing to potentially revoke a protective land order around Chaco Culture National Historical Park in New Mexico. 😡

Trump’s very happy to give tens of billions to help this guy but fights like crazy not to give full food benefits to starving children in America.

Climate change is transforming Wisconsin’s agricultural landscape and a survey of more than 900 farmers across the state found that a majority are concerned about climate change. @wuwmradio.bsky.social's Teran Powell talks to farmers for #the89percent project

A writer in Ohio calls the existential threat of climate change “a no-brainer.” A radiologist in Scotland describes it as “the greatest hazard to human health in history.” A finance worker, who lost their home in a California wildfire, says, “We have to hold the fossil fuel industry accountable.” 🧵

Hahaha. Grammy nominations dropped, and I usually don’t follow them, but Lucas Nelson is up against his dad for best traditional country album, which is sort of funny. I feel dang sure all of Bluesky will listen to both to see which is more deserving, right?

"Republicans are keeping the government closed, starving kids, and making you miss your Thanksgiving flights because they want your healthcare costs to go through the roof" is actually a pretty effective message for Democrats

Joe Rogan has one of the world's most popular podcasts. Unfortunately, like nearly all of the most popular online shows, his tends to spread climate misinformation. For @climateconnections.bsky.social I scrutinize his recent episode with octogenarian climate contrarians Lindzen & Happer 🧵 (1/11)

I live in a very small town and I know what keeps small town grocery stores open: SNAP.

We need to be worried about this. 1st some countries (Saudi Arabia) refused to welcome the 1.5 report, now they (and others) are flat out refusing to set a date for when the AR7 can be approved. Heads in the sand sort of decision-making on climate change is not just foolish it is evil necropolitics.

Yes. Bravest, most bad assed in the whole union.

Applies across parties. I have NEVER heard a Democratic elected fail this test, but some of the voters——sheesh!

I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved. www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...

I’m excited to launch my new series on Russia and the far-right. I’ve worked on this for so long, and over the coming months will share my research and documented info in one place so everyone can see how Russia has weaponized the far-right to subvert democracy in the U.S. and across Europe.

By the way, if you a signing onto the idea of only donating to food banks in Blue areas, you are doing the same.

If sandwich shops don’t start offering a sandwich named “the acquittal” then what are we even doing

HAPPENING NOW: Judge McConnell is sharply rebuking the Trump administration for what he said was defying his order to make full SNAP payments by Nov. 5. He has ordered USDA to make the *full* payment to states by tomorrow.

👀 “Hey Matt, Aftyn says Speaker Johnson’s plan is to stall seating @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social until you cancel out her vote to the release the Epstein files. Is that true?” We bumped into Matt Van Epps at BNA ✈️- He again stayed silent 🤐when we asked about what @aftynbehn.bsky.social told us🤷🏼‍♀️

The shutdown of USAID has already killed hundreds of thousands of people. It was also the most effective soft power organization on planet earth helping American interests across the globe. This was a powerfully foolish thing to do, inhuman and cruel. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

Crossing the 1.5 line is a much bigger deal than most people think.

Folks around here don’t know about Kohlrabi; they like cabbage. But with Climate change weirding the weather, it is getting harder to grow cabbage. So I’m experimenting, both with the cultivation of and the potential acceptance of this vegetable. Here is how the crop is progressing. 🌱

This is how you incinerate a field of science. 🔭🧪

Like you I am celebrating Tuesday's victories. However, my job is not to sugarcoat things and tell you it's all fixed. It is to warning about what to expect next and fight back. That is why I wrote this and why I hope you read and share. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/what...
