Took advantage of our long, lovely autumn by enjoying a walk around Sloan's lake yesterday. It was good to forget about our government for a while. #Denver #nature #colorado #photography

Good morning. Cosmo is annoyed that I'm trying to photograph this lovely dahlia and insisted being in the picture even though he hates having his picture taken. #cats #tuxedo #flowers

A dirt path trails off into the distance. Both sides of the path have tall dry grass. Gray clouds are in the sky and a mountain is on the horizon. #photography #colorado #fall #nature

The morning sun shining on the dry grass this morning was lovely.

Every major talent that works for ABC and Disney should refuse to show up for work until Jimmy Kimmel is reinstated.

Marvel movies need to shutdown. Ditto the sitcoms.

Collective boycott.

Corporations love money more than anything,& this will harm them and force them to do the right thing.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

I really was not prepared for the fact that so many of our major institutions would be inhabited by such cowards. From Congress to media/tech corporations to *some law firms and universities. I guess I watched too many β€œheroic protagonist” films… so I didnt expect so many people to suck so bad.

Covid-19 vaccine license change: 12 key questions answered And an important note about the ousted CDC leaders

The most helpful info I've found on the Covid-19 vaccine at this point, from @kkjetelina.bsky.social, particularly point 12, "What should I do right now?" I'm interested to see what our pediatrician, who is extremely pro-vaccine, has to say about this...

Oh I hate everything about this.

Obviously the answer is no, dear god, no, but anybody who loves a childβ€”not even is a parent, but is an aunt, an educator, a neighborβ€”should know this shit is being pushed hard and it is HARMFUL.

A walk with a banner that reads, READER'S WALL OF FAME. Under the banner are 3x5 pieces of paper that children have decorated with stickers, markers, and their name. All of the papers are clustered together under and around the banner except for one that is way over on the left side of the wall.

If you read 50 days this summer, you get to put your name on the Reader's Wall of Fame at the library. You can put it wherever you choose. I love that one child chose to put her name to the far left of everyone else. Antisocial or nonconformist? #YouthServices #Library #Kids #Funny #Books

A tiny mushroom. Google says it is a Hare's foot Inkcap.  Looks like a white stamen with curlicues on top and a black skirt on the bottom. Tiny but fancy.

Infographic titled β€œOne Court, Two Standards” compares how the Supreme Court used emergency powers to rule on lower-court injunctions against the Biden and Trump administrations. Two panels show:
	β€’	Biden Administration: Lower courts blocked policies in 21 cases. All 21 cases are represented by red squares, indicating that 0% of injunctions/TROs were lifted by SCOTUS.
	β€’	Trump Administration: Lower courts blocked policies in 86 cases. 66 green squares and 20 red squares show that 77% of injunctions/TROs were lifted by SCOTUS.

Key takeaway box below reads:
β€œUsing its β€˜shadow docket,’ the Supreme Court granted emergency relief to lift 77% of lower-court injunctions against the Trump administration. It lifted 0% of those against the Biden administration.”

Sources and notes below include: CourtListener data through July 7, 2025; analysis by Adam Bonica.

The Supreme Court’s β€œshadow docket” has cast very different shadows depending on which party holds the White House.

When lower courts blocked Trump admin policies, SCOTUS intervened on an emergency basis to lift those orders in 77% of cases.

For the Biden administration, that number was 0%.
