those of us that learned history and bothered to read project 2025 knew

JFC, the idiocy

Attempting to restore 1960s logging levels assumes the forests of the 1960s still exist. Following that logic, we might also consider converting the Pacific Northwest to tundra to support CRISPRed woolly mammoths. Ecology doesn’t run on nostalgia.

Elon can't make an AI as good as Claude. So instead of actually trying to win over users in a free marketplace, he's trying to have the pentagon stop using Claude AND ban all their contractors (incl. Amazon, NVIDIA, etc) from even working with Anthropic. tinpot dictatorship stuff

there is a certain irony that the "but her emails" candidate isn't actually in the emails and so many other people are

Hegseth ordering all companies with any business at the Pentagon to do zero *commercial* business with Anthropic. Will contractors, which include most of the big tech companies, all comply? And what happens if they don't?

Can someone remind me what ideology it is when the state seizes the means of production?

The "RFK Jr Curve"

Amen Rep. Al Green! Equal Justice For All 🙏♥️✊✌️

Next he'll announce that eating offal is quite trendy! Just like in the authentic European restaurants! And those old European recipes were passed down from poor and lower class ancestors who couldn't afford anything but organs and entrails. Yay! Eat like a peasant!

"Regardless, these threats do not change our position: we cannot in good conscience accede to their request" The fact that this even had to be said is utterly insane. www.anthropic.com/news/stateme...

“Oh hi bluesky pals! Dad said you needed some happy pups adventures in sunny lush Seattle, so we’re reporting for duty!” 🧵

US Surgeon General Nominee Casey Means does not have an Active Medical License, doesn’t not have any training or experience in Public Health Programs. She is somewhat like the hack who is the current HHS Secretary—RFK Jr who is not a doctor or a medical scientist.

Casey Means is an imminent threat to public health, and yet another grifter who stands to benefit at the expense of the American public. She seems indifferent to known harmful pesticides making a resurgence, but she’ll make sure theres no red dye 40 in the cheese puffs? Got it. MAHA or whatever 🙄

Illegal not only by the terms of his own refugee ceiling (set at 7,500 for the fiscal year, although he can raise it) but also likely illegal because these aren’t really refugees AND insanely hypocritical given what they’re doing to refugees admitted under Biden. Disgusting, awful bigotry.

When you just feel overwhelmed by all the horrific news.

They are not pissing on our shoes and telling us it is raining. They are pissing on us and laughing about it. If you don't like it, VOTE DEMOCRAT!

Sunset last night:

While Lauren Boebert is snapping pictures of Hillary Clinton in a closed-door deposition… This is the only photograph of a First Lady that matters when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein. Depose Melania.

Midterm message:

Oh cool. The justice department is investigating itself. I’m sure this will be really thorough.

I kind of remember something in our country’s history about illegal taxation. I wonder if all those dumb shits flying those 1776 flags even know what that American Revolution was fought over.

Here’s a thought for James Comer. There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton. It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein. You know, just to see what she knows.

Silhouettes of Yesterdays…🌺 #BeachLife

It's been far too long since I've spent some time photographing a slot canyon... I took this during a visit to Canyon X (Navajo Nation in Arizona) back in April 2017. Nikon D750, 14-24mm lens at 18mm, f6.3, ISO100, 1.3 seconds, -1 exposure compensation

This is Gus. He really likes helping bring in the groceries. Makes him feel super strong and super proud of himself. 13/10 we're proud of you too, Gus (TT: angieee677)

Dinner at Discovery Park! Beavers have moved into one of the ponds. We’ve spotted their dam before, but this is the first time we’ve seen the beaver itself. Grateful for the urban wildlife we share space with here in Seattle. #DiscoveryPark #Seattle #explore #naturelovers #urbanwildlife #beavers

The herons are returning for nesting season! Rainy morning at Seattle’s largest Great Blue Heron colony in Commodore Park, near the Ballard Locks. This is an easy, accessible spot for birdwatching and one of our favorite places to visit. #Seattle #urbanwildlife #BallardLocks #daytrip #staycation

A recently released USFWS document permits ranchers in Catron County, NM, to kill any endangered Mexican gray wolf within two grazing allotments near Quemado. Several wolf families are in the area, including a likely pregnant, genetically valuable female from the Elk Horn pack. 🔗 bit.ly/4aLV3El

I guess they're waiting for breakfast? #NVwildhorses

Brown. The word you’re looking for is brown.

Anyone paying attn to the confirm. hearings for surgeon gen'l? RFKJr didn't reco an actual MD for 🍊💩 to nom, so we'll have more anti-science, -medicine, -vax at the top. Oh, & give granny veggies instead of meds, ban birth control pills, herd immunity instead of vax. What could go wrong?

For all those who didn't watch tonight, allow me to summarize: The liar lied again.
