A normal potus would send firefighters to help battle the blaze(s). This one has no empathy. It's all blame and punishment. Victim mentality.

3/3 I feel this post wouldn't be complete without a photo of a pollinator hard at work 😀

Update to the update: Just received an email from the supervisor of elections informing me that not only was my ballot received, my ballot will be counted. Holy smokes it's quite the process.

People have become jaded to it, but a President who threatens to outlaw media in a free society should be immediately removed from office. Trump's words are completely antithetical to the core American commitments of free speech and free press.

things the "president" could have addressed during his "speech" last night (right answers only)

Delayed coffee time as we overslept. Schedule is now all wackadoodle. As is the dog.

Rarely is a primetime address by a President of the United States grounds for that President’s impeachment.

Thunder, which means I've got a trembling doggie all up in my grill. At 3:00. In the freakin' morning. So that's fun.

So far seeing relatively few posts on Trump's speech from Senate Republicans, and no sign that it moved the needle at all on passing the Save America Act. It's been clear for months that there aren't 50 Rs willing to nix or bypass the filibuster rule. And Ds oppose it.

He's gone 'round the bend

Reprehensible

Trump will lie about the 2020 election. Trump will lie about the 2026 election. But, if Trump claims powers he does not have, or tries to undermine free and fair election, we will sue and we will win. If you doubt me, take a look at my record in beating him and his allies in court.

Of course.

Update: My mail ballot was received by my county's supervisor of elections! Whew.

When institutions fall short, people still deserve the facts. Here’s what every family should know about Cyclospora—and how to stay safe.

I was feeling so down after watching the news this evening, I decided to type #therapydogs into Bluesky. If you too are feeling sad, I recommend you do the same.

Sent my mail ballot on Monday. They have not yet received it. I'll check again on Friday. Nerve-wracking.

Nevermind. I just read his post about it on the The Popehat Report. Gosh darn it. I liked having him here. www.popehat.com/p/a-bit-of-t...

Is Popehat taking a break? Or using a backup account? Haven't seen him around since the "kerfuffle" with Bluesky.

Some good news.

Good. Also, finally!

Abolish ICE.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Oh, no. I loved him. Too young.
