Take a deep breath following the elections. Then organize.

The National Park Service restored a statue in Washington DC of a Confederate who was known to have misappropriated funds and likely joined the KKK. He would have right in today. www.npr.org/2025/10/27/n...

@atreides78723.bsky.social I am still finding out how the game can mix with progressive ideals. But I do know it’s about more than finding a container. caching.spacecapn.com

‘Change course now’: humanity has missed 1.5C climate target, says UN head

A long memory is important when so much if the story told through public lands is being erased www.americanprogress.org/article/the-...

In 1976, the Continental Walk for peace and social justice arrived in Washington DC. Things have not turned for the better since then, but in many ways the walk will never end. We continue to resist and to believe that peace is the way.

Trump’s med bed video went even beyond the claims that the beds are a secret space program tech. It provided comic relief, but true believers held on to its hope. It’s hard to argue against hope, even if it’s just snake oil. blog.spacecapn.com/med-beds-for...

And now my favorite sport of PDC darts joins the rush for money

@officialpdc.bsky.social I just learned that the PDC will hold us first Saudi Arabia darts masters tournament. Nothing says darts like remembering how your hosts dismembered Jamal Khashoggi while he was still alive. Or systemic abuse of LGBTQ citizens and torture. But let’s play darts.

In one day, Mike Johnson protected the child-rapists of the Epstein Files; while Pete Hegseth honored the child-killers of Wounded Knee. And that’s MAGA Christianity. They simply removed all those woke tiresome Jesus parts.

When we were last at Jedediah Smith we were dismayed that many plaques were missing, including one that paid tribute to the “supernal silence” of the area. A ranger told us that they were stolen. This is the story: www.sfgate.com/northcoast/a...

I just purchased Jon Atack’s new ebook “If Scientology Ruled the World: Sex Magick, Nazi Occultism, Space Aliens, and the Second Coming.” If it’s even half as good as the title it will be a great read.

Oh, look! They're celebrating the Fourth of July in France as well.

Somehow, Social Security lying about the tax cuts for billionaires bill does not make me trust them.

1. Stonewall National Monument took down trans flags and progress pride flags, opting only to fly the rainbow pride flag. It erases the trans people who led the Stonewall uprising. Thankfully, New Yorkers have been bringing their own and planting them. Subscribe to support our journalism.

The Trump administration said that it would open up 58 million acres of back country in national forests to road construction and development, removing protections that had been in place for a quarter century.

As Kris Kristofferson sang as our bombs were falling in Iraq, Don’t Let the Bastards get You Down. Or as Joe Hill said, Don’t Mourn, Organize. As I said, Times might change but the we still need to bring change.

Look folks, I am only going to utter these words one time ever and only in response to this one particular tweet from 2019: Tulsi is right

The Manzanar relocation camp site is incredibly moving and I hope it makes some visitors uncomfortable. History and truth will often do that. The beauty and grandeur in such sites is in how people endured and overcame. www.sfchronicle.com/california/a...

No Kings in Fairfax CA. My Elk not Kings sign might have been a little obscure. Someone asked if I was from the National Parks. But I stand by it

There are many people who claim insider information or say that they are ex-intelligence officials. Cash is the real deal and his warning goes beyond partisan lines or conspiracy theories. Take the time to listen.

The Supreme Court just backed the largest freight rail infrastructure project in the US since the late 1970s. The decision makes all but certain the destruction of some of Utah's most pristine mountains.

Groves around Jedediah Smith State and National Park had benches with with memorials and sayings, such as an ode to the supernal silence of the area. A ranger confirmed they were stolen since our last visit. Luckily the trees remain.

Spending the night in Ogallala NE allowed us to see the famous water tower in the night and day. And if an orb happened to fly by, so much the better. Nebraska is more mysterious than many think.

Lol. Remind me what party decided to remove the word "transgender" from every government website, deleted all health data about transgender people, and sought to censor all research done on transgender healthcare? There is a party waging a war on science, and it's certainly not "the left."

The 500 richest people in the world added $304B to their combined net worth yesterday after Trump's tariff pause. Meanwhile, retirees, small businesses, and workers are still reeling from the mess. Trump's actions feel chaotic until you see who really comes out on top.

Is science fiction becoming real? If this catches on then I can see a point where opposing Trump would allow the state to predict your criminality and take necessary action www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025....

“A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.” -Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

1. Want to know how cruel Scientology is? I often remind people when you become an enemy of Scientology, you are not just an enemy in this life — you are an enemy forever. Death does not spare you. Scientologists believe we live innumerable lives, your enemy designation sticks with you forever

California to spend $239 million to turn San Quentin into Scandinavian-style rehab center. I used to work on a consent decree at the prison but now wonder if the times are changing. Still, nothing will replace what Johnny Cash sang about the prison. www.sfchronicle.com/california/a...

Congratulations on a job well done @booker.senate.gov You are appreciated.

I guess western civilization is over now.

@booker.senate.gov has been speaking on the Senate floor for more than 20 HOURS and counting. #RESPECT

We all matter or none of us matter. Human rights are not subject to situational ethics. They should be uniformly applied & respected or they are without value for everyone, not just those minimalized. If the rights of immigrants & asylum seekers are void, so are the rights of everyone else.

Farm workers, janitors, gig workers, nurses, airport workers, electricians, fast food workers and more are united in our solidarity, as we reject the cruel attacks on working people by Trump and billionaires, who seek to divide working people for their own gain. #ConEstasManos

"History will judge societies and governments - and the institutions - not by how big they are or how well they serve the rich and the powerful, but by how effectively they respond to the needs of the poor and the helpless." - #CesarChavez

I went to Delano when I was 16 and my life was never the same. More importantly the farmworkers lives were never the same. Cesar Chavez was very complex but I am grateful that he organized and transformed so much. On his day people will always remember and continue to say Viva La Huelga!
