Love this!

How long ago did Dr. Simard show that landscapes recover better through cooperation, not competition, not herbicides? Let the fungal network between species do the work. Actually cheaper than spraying. This is so discouraging!

If you paid even a penny in federal income tax last year, you paid more than: Tesla Southwest Disney Live Nation HP United PayPal CVS Health Palantir Citigroup PG&E 3M That's right. They paid $0 in federal income tax. It's time for big corporations to pay their fair share.

This is very true! And as the research on the issue shows and as the Hungarian example confirms, and the Polish one before that, the key to large turnout is long-term, grass-roots organizational labor that helps people understand how their single vote is a dignified part of a larger transformation.

Another Trump-endorsed far-right extremist has fallen. Watch Hungarians celebrate the loss of Viktor Orbán and cheer their next Prime Minister, Péter Magyar’s win. Congratulations, Hungary, on crushing authoritarianism. We will do the same in America in November! Winter is coming, Mr. President.

If Hungary can do it, so can we. And we will.

This is one of the best sites for keeping up with AI lawsuits, including this tracker map of cases in the USA and abroad chatgptiseatingtheworld.com/aicopyrightc...

I can never remember the name of Anthropic's new AI, so I'll call it Mothra.

Why wait to be called back? Show up, and impeach them all from the steps of the people's Capitol.

Ask what voters can do... come November, vote so he and the rest can be impeached and convicted. It's up to us now!

Meanwhile in the other doomsday scenario...

I also wrote my members of Congress. You can, too.

WTAF?

It’s day 32 of Trump’s Iran War, and we’ve already spent over $37 BILLION. That’s more than the annual budget of the TSA & FAA COMBINED. Trump is choosing military adventurism abroad over keeping our airports & skies in America safe.

I hear that too, and I'm here to say you can write, brainstorm, research, and outline without AI! It's more fun that way. Readers hate AI, writers don't need it, but the tech bros want you to think it's inevitable. It ain't!

Montana — yes, deep red Montana — has a plan to effectively neuter Citizens United. No Supreme Court ruling or constitutional amendment needed. This is no joke. Here's how it works. www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1fP...

If I were Trump, I personally would fight like hell against the notion that you get the death penalty for lying. 🤥

At Democratic #NoKings protests, they used flags to wave. At Republican #Jan6 protest, they used flags to assault police officers. The two parties are *not* the same.

On the plus side, Trump finally got the crowds he wanted.

Besties since the 1960s. Did not expect to be protesting our government together sixty years later. #NoKings

To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️ It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.

AI is extorting workers to become fluent in it in order to survive, while it decimates the environment. You can’t be looking for work or to advance (or keep your job) and an environmentalist when it comes to AI. www.axios.com/2026/03/24/a...

I just read Four Lost Cities by @annaleen.bsky.social and can't wait to read this! (Gorgeous cover!) 🪐📚🌈

I've wondered why this now, but boy is it timely! #women'shistory #bezossucks watch.thirteen.org/show/becomin...

Trump replaced Khamenei with his son who, by all accounts, is even worse. The White House is led by incompetent idiots with absolutely no plan for what comes next.

Don’t think firing Kristi Noem will fix the problems at DHS. Only VOTING will. Vote like your life depends on it because it DOES! #savedemocracy #nokings

More Sports! The Olympics are over but not the drama. In case you haven’t heard, the U.S. women won ice hockey gold! Then the men won. Who did the president speak to as they celebrated? The men. He invited them to the State of the Union address, adding, per USA Today (and, well, everyone), “I must…

Boston City Hall is lit tonight to honor the life and lasting impact of Reverend Jesse Jackson. As a city, we extend our condolences to Reverend Jackson’s family, loved ones, and all those who found strength and community in the movement that he built.

Good grief. Everyone knows they were just friends.

Skydance, parent co of Paramount & CBS, complied in advance. FCC chair, Brendan Carr is flexing so CBS barred Colbert from airing his interview with TX Senate candidate, Rep. James Talarico Therefore, don't share this link of the Colbert interview with @jamestalarico.bsky.social It'll make Carr mad
