grotesque. they murdered and terrorized your citizens just months ago, these were international stories. and they’re still at it! but sure, go hobnob with the nazis. you’re very cool.

It's Earth Day!

The YES has won in Virginia; voters approved the constitutional amendment to adopt Dems' congressional gerrymander. This is likely to deliver a 10-1 (Dem) congressional delegation in November, compared to 6-5 (Dem) now. The remaining obstacle: State supreme court will be weighing in still.

Trillium for your Sunday.

There was a large colony of Trout Lillies dominating the forest floor during my hike yesterday. Apparently, only 0.5% of the plants in a given colony will flower.

Submission to Israel's genocidal whims was the death knell for the Biden/Harris administration and likely will be the same for the Trump/Vance administration.

a “ceasefire” that lasted 17 hours and killed 254 people in lebanon is not a ceasefire and referring to it as one is inaccurate

let's be clear about what's happening: donald trump and benjamin netanyahu, whose countries have been committing genocide in gaza since 2023, unilaterally started a war with iran, and are now threatening genocide there.

In 1953 Iran had a functioning democracy. A free press. Seven political parties. Women in universities. Women granted voting rights in municipal councils in 1952. A secular prime minister named Mosaddegh who believed Iran's oil belonged to Iran. The US and Britain decided he had to go.
