Glacierless Peak? The icy realms of Washington’s North Cascades lose their cool - OPB www.opb.org/article/2025...

You can't paint all elites with the same brush. Even if you're a lefty like Lasch, there are some undeniable differences among elites. It's wrong and unhelpful to see equivalence everywhere. Obama/Biden v Trump Harris v Vance Senator Warren v Senator Ernst Bernie v Ted AOC v MTG Etc. If you […]

Trump’s awful but it’s important to note he’d be different and potentially less harmful kinds of awful if he weren’t advised and manipulated by some of the most evil people in American history.

We will Shine so Bright with the universe Inside of us It’ll terrify The dark. #poetry

The main reason there aren't more media pieces about Trump's cognitive decline is that it's indistinguishable from the batshit conspiracies, ramblings, obsessions, and narcissism he's been spewing for a decade. This could be dementia. But it could just be another scam he or a crony is in on.

With a sudden flash, this parrot spreads its neck feathers into a vivid red-and-blue fan, transforming into a living spectacle. Native to the Amazon, it uses this dramatic display to startle rivals or impress a mate — a reminder of just how theatrical the […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Donald Trump’s entire life story is one failure after another, yet because of his father’s wealth he has avoided accountability his entire life. #truth #america #politics #President #UnitedStates #usa #government #idiocracy #accountability #Corruption

Well, that psychotic jackass in chief is going to the drunk shithead's military meeting. He's 100% gonna tell them to commit war crimes against all of us. Bonus security nightmare. #uspolitics https://wapo.st/3IJUS2s

Trump and MAGA-GOP have been shutting down the government since Jan 20

Just misread a toot saying "Thank you for the helpful responses" as "Thank you for the helpful nonsense" and that's the best one sentence summary of Mastodon I've ever heard

Human rights defender Greta Thunberg: "I am not scared of Israel, I am scared of a world that has seemingly lost all sense of humanity. What we are doing here is trying to show there is some humanity left. That there are still people willing to step up when all other means fail." #3E

If we’re renaming departments and calling the DOD the “Department of War”, we might as well go ahead and make the DOJ the “Department of Revenge”

wow... i detect unity...?!

We can shut them up.

🔥 RICHARD MASSEY: “No one here in MEMPHIS asked for military occupation… this is not a war on crime, it’s a war on the working class… we know better than to sign off on our city becoming a blueprint for authoritarianism.”

Not for nothing, but if Portland had its own nuclear capability, they wouldn’t be facing imminent invasion by the United States federal government. /s https://youtu.be/iLZwX4gxvp0 #uspol #nuclear #portland #sketch

Happening now in war ravaged Portland: the city's Parks and Recreation Department (the most subversive of all government entities, is giving away trees.

The giant trees of the Amazon are fighting back. The rainforest’s largest trees are multiplying and growing even bigger while continuing to play a major role in mitigating the impacts of climate change. Read more from NBC News: https://flip.it/w1PSGT #science #climatechange #amazon #trees […]

War ravaged Portland

"We now have a sudden influx of federal agents in our city. We did not ask for them to come...We have seen that their presence harms commerce and prosperity and opportunity in other cities...Imagine if the federal govt instead sent a hundred teachers, or a hundred engineers." #pdx #portlandOR

President Biden was the escape route from fascism. He restored our economy, institutions, and public health. But voters threw that away out of racism, tantrum, counterproductive protest, and indifference. There is no way back. What comes next will be a different country, and maybe more than one.

WATCH: Here’s where Netanyahu says the purchase of TIKTOK is important so Israel can “battle” for public opinion 🤔 (Sure sounds like they plan to manipulate the algorithm, with the help of the Trump allies buying it — and sounds like Elon is helping them too)

walking out/booing netanyahu is great and all, but have we tried arresting him for war crimes?

Okay, time to put my brain on standby and go Torgue things up in Borderlands4. Hope everyone enjoys their Friday night, and remember: Finding joy in the face of tyranny is also a form of resistance. Don’t be afraid to take time to recharge your batteries.

The administration celebrating Wounded Knee is congruent with the administration asking for dismissals or one-day sentences for cops convicted of civil rights violations. It’s part of a coordinated message. /1 apnews.com/article/woun...
