he is sick.

You Guys: I DID IT! I knit my very first sweater. An. Actual. Sweater. 🧶 I am unreasonably excited about this, so I have given myself 30 min to be absolutely insufferable 😂 Here she is just out of her first bath:

Maine voters: take a look I don’t know them, but I believe vetting all candidates is part of our job as citizens It’s discouraging how media, interest groups & party leaders want to limit choices Reminds me of a parenting rule: give a young kid choices, but only choices YOU find acceptable

If Trump were correct and members of the US military were looking forward to CONQUEST, that would be a huge problem. Trump likes to portray service members as violent savage bloodthirsty Hegseth too The pair of them are depraved #Iran

The Utah Mammoth have a new Zamboni skin (via Mammoth)

Joint advisory from FBI, NSA, DOE & CISA says hackers affiliated with the Iranian gov't have targeted industrial control devices used in critical US infrastructure—including the energy sector, water & wastewater utilities, & unspecified “government facilities.” Sorry, can't provide a free link.

Hell yeah. Look at those Emmy nominations!!!! Two separate Bellingcat noms! @bellingcat.com @evidentmedia.org @calmatters.org @frontlinepbs.bsky.social @washingtonpost.com

Meanwhile, White House must be sending possible tweet draft texts to Sharif because it absolutely does not make sense Pakistanis referring to their own prime minister as Pakistan’s PM. (Screen shot from the first version of tweet which is still accessible)

Le coucher de Terre d'Artemis II en version fond d'écran.

The House must come back into session immediately to vote to end Trump’s war. The President is unhinged, lawless and bringing global chaos and we must stop him NOW. Our service members, Iranian civilians and our country’s national security depend on it. Read my full statement here:

25th amendment. Impeachment. I will support any avenue to remove Donald Trump from office. We cannot leave this man in charge of America’s nuclear weapons as he threatens to end an entire civilization. And Congress must not fund this reckless administration.

Completely unstable and perilous. The House must bring up impeachment articles, and the Senate needs to remove a president who wants to commit war crimes. We cannot sit idly by as Donald Trump threatens to end an entire civilization.

Donald Trump is an unhinged warmonger and war criminal using violence for personal gain and profit, while innocent people pay the price.   Congress must reconvene to pass the War Powers Resolution. The 25th Amendment must also be invoked. Congress has to do our damn job. War powers and Impeachment.

We're in a weird time with open source and commercial satellite imagery right now and Iran is under a 40-day internet blackout. As a workaround, @bellingcat.com has adapted Ollie Ballinger's remote sensing work to more easily find damaged areas in Iran: www.bellingcat.com/resources/20...

oh my god oh my god oh my god www.nasa.gov/image-detail... www.nasa.gov/image-detail... www.nasa.gov/image-detail...

The free tool will allow researchers and journalists to still examine the impact of Trump's war with Iran despite restrictions placed on commercial satellite imagery by the Trump government.

Just in time for Trump's scheduled war crimes, Bellingcat has updated our tool for identifying damaged buildings and structures in satellite imagery, ideally for investigating atrocities in Iran. Full details here: www.bellingcat.com/resources/20...

Hey Georgia friends—if this is your election, get out there & vote!

As Donald Trump threatens genocide for the people of Iran, I wonder how many of his advisors WANT the world to end How many are Christians who saw moving the US embassy to Jerusalem as fulfilling a prophecy?

Every other country in the world needs to close their airspace to the United States military immediately until Trump retracts his threat to commit genocide But will other countries do nothing, because they think Trump will TACO when Iran doesn’t unconditionally surrender?

In a different era, I’d know this was fake But here we are in 2026 and I easily believe President of the United States Donald Trump is openly declaring his intention to commit genocide @duckworth.senate.gov what does an unlawful order look like? #Iran

I propose we start talking about spending in Days Of War (DOW). NASA’s entire budget is $24.4B. That’s 24 DOW. He wants to cut NASA’s budget by $5.6B, or around 6 DOW. Hits a little differently when you put things in perspective.

Forced forgiveness is an an additional harm against the victim / survivor and a convenient way for the harmdoer to maintain the status quo

Kim: Three weeks of the war in Iran could have funded vision, hearing, and dental coverage for every senior in America on Medicare. I mean, it just gives you a sense of the trade-off.

Let’s move past Hegseth’s obvious mental instability for a sec After being shot down, the airman’s FIRST message with emergency equipment is NOT about status, or injuries, it is “God is good”? We’re supposed to believe he ignored his training? BS How does the officer feel about this story?

Since 2017 I've been trying to explain that Trump is a "loose-aggressive" poker player. (here's a thread from 2018).

All THREE of Jo Adell's home run robberies from tonight ... Yes, you read that right 😮

Your regular reminder that dehumanizing the people who are dehumanizing others isn’t how we’re gonna get to liberation. We have to live into the world we want to create.

We get to justice by just means. And we must be uncompromising about this. Because once you begin to bend who matters or what values you're willing to prioritize, you're already halfway to becoming those you despise.

Words fail me

Hegseth said no quarter Trump threatens to destroy power & desalination plants We blew up a school There are reports we bombed a bridge & bombed it AGAIN and killed first responders If the US is openly committing war crimes, what will Iran do if they capture a US F-15 pilot alive?

Thinking today on Good Friday about how my Savior Jesus Christ was wrongly convicted and praying for those in prison who are wrongfully convicted.

Well alrighty then I imagine folks in Iran watching Polymarket betting are prepping for the invasion Is a Trump insider betting on a timeline yet?

The Buffalo Medical Examiner rules that the death of a legally blind elderly Burmese refugee dropped off by Border Patrol at a closed shop late at night in winter was a homicide. He died of a burst ulcer caused by severe stress brought on by dehydration and hypothermia.

I have been covering legal challenges to "conversion therapy" since 2013 and have never described this harmful, discredited practice as anything other than abusive in all its forms. My intent was to clarify that "physical interventions" is just another euphemism for abuse. bsky.app/profile/mjsd...

Another reason not to explain Supreme Court decisions is that if they are about anything even a little controversial, people of bad faith will angrily misrepresent what you are saying about them. Such people are best blocked. bsky.app/profile/mjsd...

FYI: I am going to stop summarizing Supreme Court decisions on here as they come down. One comment has been plucked out of context of all my reporting, misread, and used as the basis of a mean-spirited pile-on. I am not going to subject myself to this. If this was your goal, then congratulations.
