What’s on my plate today? Dealing w/the local sheriff regarding the unwell man threatening my parents in another state. Finding the mail we put on hold that has never been delivered. Navigating a contract that I know is screwing me over. Kidney infection. Vetch eradication. Laundry. First: coffee.

This is fucking insane. Closing these NOAA labs would obliterate our ability to observe, understand, and forecast the Earth System, from weather systems tomorrow to sea levels 50 years from now.

His speech at Fort Bragg today should send shivers down the spines of every patriotic American. Gearing up to use the military against American citizens in cities everywhere.I cannot believe how fast the fascism is coming.

The end of the nonpartisan military ethic was when commanders felt compelled to ask soldiers to self-report dissent rather than remind them to act professionally as befitting a visit by POTUS

"It gets somewhat lost in all the other high octane dimensions of this story that a raid on a Home Depot is literally an effort to arrest people who are eager to work and whose labor is in great demand. It’s about as far as you can get from just going after the bad guys, as the WH routinely claims."

Put aside the lies and the open defiance of the Supreme Court, as well as the cruelty, and ask yourself: who talks like this? This is the *official* account of the *White House* - is it being run by a six year old?

The parts of society being defunded - arts, culture, history, science, education, nature, etc. - are what make us more than consumers, and into community. They need protecting, they are keys to remembering who we are.

The United States is currently a country where you can be kidnapped by secret police and shipped off to a slave labour concentration camp without ever being charged with a crime or getting a chance to argue your case in front of a judge. If you think it can't happen to you, why do you think that?

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

If a deranged president intentionally destroying the country's economy with a ludicrous obsession (and misunderstanding) of tariffs *isn't* justification for invoking the 25th Amendment, I honestly can't imagine any scenario that would be.

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

Government abductions are unconstitutional. Denying anyone the right to due process in America is unconstitutional. If you’ve rationalized your silence or support for any of it because it’s happening to those you disagree with, give it a minute… They’ll get to you soon enough.
