A view of the Pacific Ocean, the sun sits on the horizon illuminating the landscape in beautiful colors.

Goodnight my #bluesky friends! Thank you for being my calm in the storm. I appreciate you all! ✨️🦋✌️😁💙✨️

in the ocean of chaos."

Randy Fine’s “Thump Thump Act” isn’t legislation — it’s an incitement to commit felony assault and murder.

Encouraging drivers to run over protesters is not a policy stance. It’s a criminal provocation.

Law enforcement and ethics committees should take notice. Now.

I saw this honey bee land on the “nectarine” #Amber #Rose but could not get close due to a railing & a few feet of thorny bushes. The thorax is so light you can barely see it, or the head. I tried to adjust the color some but this is the best I could do. #Bees #BloomScrolling #Photography

I have been surprisingly lucky with my wildlife photography this year.

I’m excited to be joining Stephen Colbert tonight on “The Late Show.”

Back in 2013, I joined “The Colbert Report” to discuss how we build an economy that works for the many, not just the few.

Walked 10 miles around #Glasgow, Scotland yesterday. This is the Clyde Arc Bridge. Big cities are really not my thing, but I always find interesting #architecture to photograph and great food.

The 5 Shocking Secrets of Color Psychology in Masterpiece Paintings! The 5 Shocking Secrets of Color Psychology in Masterpiece Paintings! Ever stood in front of a painting, a true masterpiece, and felt a jolt of emotion? Maybe it was a wave of calm, a surge of excitement, or a prickle of unease. I'm not talking about the subject matter itself, but the raw, visceral feeling that hits you before you even process the scene.

“Why don’t you post much about autism or research these days?”

uh my gov’t would prefer me dead & I’m currently in the liminal space between a reality where that’s an over reaction & a one that has a credible threat to my life & family. maybe someday we’ll return to our regularly scheduled program.

Rachel Reeves autumn Budget will see significant tax rises - BBC News Repeatedly borrowing more is not a long-term solution to rising day-to-day spending pressures.

If this does not fall on the highest earners, if this is not a wealth tax, this should spell the end of the starmer project and Reeves,' political career

I am sure starmer will condemn this, right?

I’ll never forgive tories 2010-24 for being so wholeheartedly shit, a whole country lost faith that a government can do stuff safely, effectively & in people’s interests.

There’s a line to draw between that, the trust vacuum getting filled by social media & people not getting their kids the MMR.

never understood why starmer would go for an enoch style "island of strangers" speech. This explains it.

it's to pander to the racisty types.

it is remarkable the number of people who are inventing justifications to oppose the doctors strikes now after loudly supporting them when the tories where in charge. even my dad, an nhs consultant, says he opposes the new strike action!

"The most urgent thing to do is build and organize movements committed to universal, quality public services, ​​strengthened worker protections​​, and supporting a fair taxation system."

Really important to see how the challenges facing the US are present elsewhere to learn how to respond.

Good reminder re: paywalls - A lot of public libraries have digital subscriptions to news media that you can use with a library card

A line of elephants appear very small, looking back across Amboseli National Park as the sun illuminates their path and the clouds darken the areas on both sides of the way they are crossing. The mountains to west and Tanzania are behind them as well as threatening thunder clouds.
