Farm workers in Arvin CA are hard at work setting up the irrigation system in a vegetable field. This is crucial for maximizing crop yield and quality, by providing consistent moisture directly to roots, which reduces plant stress and helps prevent disease. #WeFeedYou

Congressman Ted Liu is a Great American

We need universal healthcare and universal basic income.

I cannot adequately explain how fucked up the World Cup situation is wihen the president of a host nation *threatens the safety* of one of the participants (Iran).
The USA should be removed as a host nation and if it's not, the games shoud be boycotted and ANYONE WITH A MORAL CENTER should see that.

The short peak season has begun in the strawberries on CA's Central Coast. In this 9 hour day, "Irma" managed to pick 90 flats or 1,020 of the plastic 1 pint boxes we buy at a supermarket. (A flat holds 12 plastic one pint baskets). She earns $2.20 a flat. #WeFeedYou

Looks like you might have used Harvard Graphics? Or was it Lotus 123? I have a couple of old papers and reports from that era that have graphics that look like these

Everybody getting empathy and common damn sense

Did you know that tomorrow, March 10th marks the National Day of Rest for Black Women, a day created to center rest, reflection, and renewal? It's also the anniversary of Harriet Tubman’s passing, honoring her powerful legacy of courage, resistance, and liberation.

I think every country's government should provide the people with benefits & a base income, this way they have basic necessities covered. People will still work even with a UBI & they will be paying taxes, so that money should go back into investing in the community, not lining corporate pockets.

"Ana" works in the Kerman, CA area pruning peach trees. She's working a few hours a day earning minimum wage. "This is a hard time of year as there aren't a lot of jobs. I do whatever temporary work I can. The money I earn helps provide for my family." #WeFeedYou

Literally the only statement from an elected official I’ve read this morning worth our time. @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @sanders.senate.gov take note!!

Thank you @mayor.nyc.gov @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

I will never get used to the disdain our country holds for brown and Black children.

From Palestine to Iran to Sudan, we normalize the destruction of schools and hospitals and daycares. We reduce children to death tolls and their futures to rubble with no consequence or second thought.

We watched a couple of DS9 episodes tonight. Did we miss anything

Hahahahahahahahahahaha

Outcry Roils BAFTAs After Guest With Tourette Syndrome Shouts N-word at Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo Lindo told Vanity Fair afterward that he and Jordan “did what we had to do” while presenting—but that he wished “someone from BAFTA spoke to us afterward.”

Delroy Lindo told Vanity Fair that he and Michael B. Jordan “did what we had to do” while presenting but that he also wished “someone from BAFTA spoke to us afterward”

That’s why UBI makes sense

Rest in power, Reverend.

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

Farm workers pruning apple trees in WA state tell us, "The fog makes everything wet. This makes the work more difficult and dangerous. It also means we can't meet our minimum quota. They pay 45 cents per tree." #WeFeedYou

As a Colorado River deadline passes, reservoirs keep declining Seven states have missed a federal deadline to reach a water deal on the Colorado River. They remain divided on how to cut water use.

The leaders of seven states failed to negotiate a deal to share the diminishing waters of the Colorado River by a Trump administration deadline, leaving the Southwest in a quagmire while the river’s depleted reservoirs continue to decline. www.latimes.com/environment/... @latimes.com

What the National Center for Atmospheric Research means to the atmospheric sciences Born out of a time of great need for the federal government, NCAR plays a role with few analogues.

Great piece out today in Physics Today on historical origins, contemporary relevance, & fundamental irreplaceability of the National Center for Atmospheric Research, which remains at imminent risk of dismantling for partisan political reasons.

Is anyone else mad at the fact that they have to pay federal taxes for bullshit they don't want? Like new ballrooms, the Gestapo, child torture, and human trafficking.

I wanna pay for education, social services, UBI, and universal health care! I'm so gotdamn mad right now, I need to lie down.

Some of the performers from the Bad Bunny halftime show kept the music going outside the stadium after the show and it turned into an impromptu street party.

As February unfolds, we proudly recognize Black History Month, a time to honor the countless contributions and powerful voices of Black leaders throughout history. Black history is American history, and Black history is incredibly important to the Bay-Delta's history.

Search Bluesky for Effin’ Birds and you should be able to find him. No epithets barred with good bird illustrations.

Pretty cool to be in the print edition of today's @nytimes.com. Especially writing about something as important about the fate of the Colorado River. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/02/o...

Try effin birds?

I’m going to make list of stupid shit I hear. For my own sanity if for no one else’s. Post it here.
Is there a good stupid shit meme?
