Recently I had my first Monarch Butterfly hatch. More coming soon. Hopefully they all make it to Mexico before winter comes.

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

So if you suddenly try to break into Congress to murder the VP you've supported for 4 years because he won't break the law and the police shoot you, your family gets 5 million dollars?

Do I have that right, humans?

Yeah, a sign of spring, I hope. It has been way too cool so far.

I would not bet on that. Just set them on a plane and sent them off. No jurisdiction will get them back. We have already one example.
