A hs student who voluteers at the Museum of the Earth has also been tmraising money to help out PRI. Donations have been coming in with the press push, I think they'll make it but keep sharing and donate what you can: www.weny.com/news/local/h...

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

I'll start: @ravenscimaven.bsky.social should share about PRI's need for donations before the end of the year because it is a center of science communication, teacher education, and science outreach, especially for Earth and climate science, and they are based in NY www.priweb.org/learn-and-te...

Interesting to hear Rick Atkinson reference the Revolution as part of our "creation myth" and Christopher Brown (an academic) make the case for a historically grounded union out of many. #HATM

Ganondagan State Historic Site featured early on in tonight's episode.

Now more than ever, as we approach the 250th anniversary of this nation’s birth, all of us need to find ways to channel the courage and defiance of Frederick Douglass and stand up for truth in history and memory. kevinmlevin.substack.com/p/rememberin...

In the last 11 days another 102 donors have given >than $40,000, with some other donations in stock waiting to become available for use. PRI can make it with your help! Please continue to share with your networks for potential donors so we can keep the museum and its online resources available!

As "agents of the state," what exactly are public school educators allowed to do - or not do- when ICE comes calling?

It’s Canandaigua Treaty Commemoration Day today!

this word cloud just slapped on a pink pussy hat and took to the streets

Nice work, Perinton voters! 👍🏼

Day185 of photoshopping @lastweektonight.com's John Oliver with fossils in the hopes that he saves the Paleontological Research Institution "John Oliver (H. sapiens) prevents disaster for US paleontology" could be this month's nonsense headline. Shake a poor ichthyosaur's hand #savePRI 🧪⚒️ #science

"As Virginia Giuffre’s brother said, “An ordinary American girl from an ordinary American family brought down a British prince with her truth and extraordinary courage.” If only the truth and courage of this American girl could prevail here in the United States!" www.thebulwark.com/p/for-one-da...

Shame on @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social and the rest of them for not decisively ending this racist, junior varsity nepo baby when he lost the primary

At what point does self defense become resisting arrest?

I would like to mention again that menstrual products are covered by FSA funds. fsastore.com - so if you find yourself with money left on the table by the end of the year, consider using those funds and donate the products [pantries, homeless shelters etc...]

We've had a successful Ambassador program at our school for 15 years now, always looking to improve it. Some great ideas here!

Ok, Gov. Hochul, your turn.

Update on the Paleontological Research Institution and their remaining need for donations to pay off their mortgage and avoid foreclosure #savePRI please share; tag anyone you think might help🧪⚒️🦑 @lastweektonight.com @colbertlateshow.bsky.social @pbseons.bsky.social www.ithaca.com/news/regiona...

Feeling pretty lucky to share views like these with 4th graders. #optoutside

MSNBC Grandmas in Skechers seamlessly reclaiming the frog from 4chan Nazis in about six weeks has gotta be the political upset of the century.

Y'all. The check out line at Michaels.

I don’t even think she knows what it does.

I was born in 1972. The replacement rate he's panicked about has been below 2.1% for almost every year of my life. If you're really worried about the population falling, giving immigrants a path to citizenship is an obvious and easy solution. Unless there's ... something about them you don't like?

A wet, gray day at Letchworth, but still awe-inspiring. Taking 120 4th/5th graders here next week, let's hope for better weather! 🤞🏼

Listen, my first political awakening as a Gen X kid was writing postcards to Canadian PM Pierre Trudeau to stop the harp seal pup slaughter. Gen Z kids don't play, they'll be arming their orca allies in no time. 😆

I have taken the freedom of speech that was in the Constitution and which you were probably using for peaceful protest Forgive me the courts said they were so agitating and so irritating

Hmmm, maybe those wealthy Blue cities should withhold tax payments to the state of Texas. 🤔

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day? Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚

A couple living in Rep. Mike Lawler's (R-NY) district earning $82,800 annually would see an increase in costs of $13,459 every year. 😬

Why should we sit by while you take our money, defund our priorities, and shit on our values? www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Wish they had the gumption to take Walters on earlier, but better late than never.

Boo hoo, the Yankees don’t have enough fans. 😄 Buffalo is almost 200 miles closer to Toronto than to the Bronx. #gojaysgo

History repeats.

PM of Albania having a good laugh with President of Azerbaijan and Macron about Trump repeatedly claiming that he ended the war between their two countries which were not at war with each other.

Mark Zuckerberg has a vision for how A.I. could be used in Meta's universe. But the actor and filmmaker Joseph Gordon-Levitt is here to point out a flaw in the technology: an apparent lack of guardrails around how the company's chatbot interacts with underage users. nyti.ms/3ILwCNo

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

The flew the entire military leadership in so they could see for themselves that the Secretary of Defense is a mouthbreathing dipshit and the Commander in Chief is a senile, weak old man who might keel over at any moment.

Fell in love with Newcastle after my first visit ten years ago. So proud of these Geordies for standing up to hate. ✊🏼🖤🤍

This is literally what the actual "siege" of the auxiliary ICE building looks like

Folks had no idea who owns their local TV stations - until large, faceless corporations, Sinclair and Nexstar, said they can't watch Jimmy Kimmel because of politics This is why they've been warning us: media consolidation is a threat to democracy. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/jimm...

corporate americans are really tripping over themselves to answer the question “what would you have done” with “immediately join the vichy government and start deporting people to poland”
