Many people are saying that Trump’s State Of The Union could go on for at least two hours. Join @moveon.org, @meidastouch.com, and some of your favorite Members of Congress instead: www.mobilize.us/moveon/event...

Trying to get the last bit of life out of my aging crabapple tree. Pruned it this winter after years of not doing so. It’s past its 25yr lifespan… advice is to just plant a new one. We’ll see how it fills out this month.

Sunday evening sky.

Going to be a lovely day.

"To cherish what remains of the Earth and to foster its renewal is our only legitimate hope of survival" Wendell Berry

Then living on the South Side of Chicago, my dear late mother and I volunteered together on Jesse Jackson’s first presidential campaign (& on Harold Washington’s, first Black mayor of Chicago). RIP. Keep hope alive. #RainbowCoalition Gift link www.nytimes.com/2026/02/17/u...

You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.

This should infuriate everyone. Palantir must be destroyed. boingboing.net/2026/02/10/p...

This is a stupid headline, but Randy Villegas is a terrific candidate for Congress in CA-22. What he wants to be is the Democratic member of Congress who represents working people in California’s Central Valley. He’s a fighter, not a DINO who votes with GOP. 1/2 calmatters.org/politics/202...

Rep. Stansbury: “The United States government is engaged in an active cover-up of the largest sex trafficking scandal and influence peddling scandal in the history of the United States, and Donald Trump is right at the center of it.”

For anyone who needs cheering up... here's Britain's smallest bird having a bath today in a woodland puddle. 😁😍🐦❤️ #birds 🪶

True art. True humanity. What the struggle is all about.

Springsteen releases new song: "Streets of Minneapolis": Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice Singing through the bloody mist We’ll take our stand for this land And the stranger in our midst... We’ll remember the names of those who died On the streets of Minneapolis

Here it is. It's the whole interview. Incredible woman

San Francisco — join us on Saturday morning to spell out “Abolish ICE” with our bodies! Organizer Brad Newsham’s website is in 2nd post. Meanwhile here is the registration link. #AbolishICE #HumanBanner #SanFrancisco www.mobilize.us/indivisibles...

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him. “When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

Good morning!

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

The Democrats should shut down the government on this sentence alone.

Good morning, San Francisco

Super chill… live music and cool people hanging out after sunset at #SunsetDunes in San Francisco. Love our City, love our parks.

Enjoying the sunset this evening

Pacifica sunset

Pink cotton candy at sunset in Pacifica tonight.

“Many of his family members fought with the Allied forces against the Germans in World War II, and ‘I learned from them very early that what one does with Nazis is kill them,’ he said at a 2023 conference on antinuclear activism in Johannesburg. ‘I am not a pacifist.’”

In a couple of weeks, every senator and representative will vote on whether to empower Trump to send more secret police forces into our communities. This means it’s extra important for Congress to hear from you right now. Demand that your senators use their power to rein in ICE. #ICEOutForGood

“Hidden corruption persists because it is difficult to mobilize against. Exposed corruption shifts the axis of politics from left versus right to clean versus corrupt, people versus oligarchs. That’s a fight authoritarians lose.”

We love our Haikubox! Our data contributes to crowdsourcing bird song patterns as the birds migrate! It’s wonderful to know all the birds we are hearing in our garden. Yesterday it recorded 39 species and 2,685 calls and songs.

Stood on the corner of a busy intersection in Colma this afternoon, with a bunch of other people who are demanding #ICEOutForGood & mourning Renee Good & all the other people ICE has killed. Many horn honks from cars in support. It’s up to us to refuse murder as normal, which does not seem hard.
