This was one of two wild Barred Owls that lived (and may still live) near a nature center and rehab facility on the west side of Cleveland. I photographed this one in 2018. #birds, #photography

If Mitch McConnell kicks the bucket, Andy Beshear should honor Mitch's legacy by holding his seat open for a year and then appointing a democrat.

Last week, Elon Musk's staff illegally breached the U.S. Treasury payment system and gained access to millions of Americans' personal data. We're calling out Elon Musk to put on his big boy pants and answer some questions from the Oversight Committee. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvv-...

Mitch McConnell is really feeling that gravitational pull from Hell.

Trump has no idea whatsoever what Musk is actually doing even though he also signed the executive order giving DOGE “full and prompt access to all unclassified agency records, software systems, and IT systems."

Some people voted for trump. Some people voted for Kamala. Some people voted 3rd party. But I guarantee you that NOBODY voted for a fucking billionaire to be raiding our Social Security. What the fuck is THIS bullshit?

Acosta is a class act. It’s unfortunate it had to end this way, but the closing message was on point. Bravo, Jim.

It's good that there's a 25% tarriff on imported coffee now. This will incentivize people to purchase American coffee, grown in the New Jersey coffee forests

These are the good guys supporting DEI. Reward them with your business. Costco Meijer Kroger Giant Grocery Ben & Jerry’s Ulta, Macy’s Old Navy Nordstrom’s TJ Maxx GoTo Foods ( Moe’s Southwest Grill, Mcalister’s, Auntie Anne’s, Jamba, Cinnabon…) Dollar Tree Walgreens Wegmans

Funny how this kitchen corner was years in the making. First, I reconfigured the kitchen, moved the cabinets, painted them, removed the tile countertops, stained and added butcher block countertops & a new sink. Years later, added the window and shelves. Anything worth doing takes time.

How can this be justified?

Pretty sight on today’s walk.

At this point I feel like Elon could scream I AM A NAZI and people would still be like, let’s look at this from a more nuanced position.

If I accidentally did a Nazi salute on TV and I had 1/2 a trillion dollars, I would take out full page ads in every newspaper and commercials on every network to apologize and explain myself, then I would donate a ton of money to a Jewish aid group or something.

um

Exactly why @bsky.app is so important. Engaging on this platform is important. As is growing this platform. Which one of these men joins Tom Anderson and MySoace in the annals of history first ? Their greed is our opportunity.

Looks like Apple thinks Trump’s executive order on TikTok is not all that and takes the actual law passed by Congress and affirmed by the Supreme Court seriously — you cannot download the app or other ByteDance apps.

Petition to scream my face off and eat French fries all day like the angriest little seagull there ever was

Tomorrow noon east-coast time, 9am Pacific: we'll be here to talk about beloved community, power, storytelling, and enter this next era of US history together, heads held high, friends held close. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf_y...

Just joined StoryGraph. It’s a great replacement for Amazon-owned Goodreads. You can import your Goodreads history as a CSV file, if you, like me, use it partly to remember what the heck you’ve been reading. Hit me up if you need instructions.

Remember: no mandate, no majority. 37.75% of the electorate didn't vote; 31.5% voted for him; 30.6% voted for her.

Ok #booksky, let’s talk. 👎🏼Goodreads, owned by Amazon, fuels its monopoly on books. 👍🏼StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform, offers an ethical, ad-free alternative with mood-based recommendations, user control over data, and a focus on inclusivity. Support diversity over corporate power!

Fyi. Moving here for good. My wife @katzish.bsky.social was right as always, even if it is a Brooklyn bar and I still love the Cheesecake Factory.

Remember this day. The last full day with a Democratic President. We don’t know when or if we’ll ever live another day like this. 🥺

"Finally, our government will look, smell, and act like the real America. Not an Ivy League college campus, not a melting pot of immigrants striving to achieve the American dream, but instead an endlessly replenishing stream of shout-talking men."

Ummm… 3 completely irrelevant actors with questionable eyes and ears… that tracks.

Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years. Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people. Good trade.

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be. You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion. Which is more powerful?

President Biden warned that an "oligarchy" of the ultrawealthy was emerging in America, sounding the alarm about unchecked power as he gave a farewell speech to the U.S. just days before he surrenders office to a man he disdains.

As Donald Trump returns to the White House, a newly emboldened anti-DEI bloc has gained powerful allies, @johnhendrickson.bsky.social writes in The Atlantic Daily.

They obeyed in advance…AGAIN! The Washington Post killed off its "Democracy Dies In Darkness" slogan. New slogan: “Riveting Storytelling for All of America.”

Pete Hegseth is the real DEI hire: Drunk, Entitled and Ignorant.

Meanwhile in North Carolina… *internal screaming* www.wral.com/amp/21797288/

I’ve mentioned this before, but if you’re short on cash but have an urge to shop, go to your library digital apps and browse the books, audiobooks, movies, shoes, magazines. It works really well to give you the same feeling without spending the cash. (Plus you’re supporting public libraries.) 💙📚
