🐸 Requests were made by Portland protestors last night for more costume donations, batteries, and PPE. I created an Amazon wishlist and can hand deliver anything purchased. Message me if there’s something not on the list I should add. And PLEASE SHARE! www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

I am happy to report that absolutely nowhere in Portland has burned to the ground in spite of Trump’s continued insistence today that it has. Instead of thinking maybe the info he has might be terribly outdated or just entirely wrong, Trump has now deployed California troops to come here instead. 🙄

Judge grants restraining order halting Trump’s deployment of Oregon National Guard A federal judge in Portland, Oregon has temporarily blocked President Trump’s federalization of 200 members of the state’s National Guard.

Trump judge no less. 😅

Im in Portland. Waiting for judgement to drop that will either thwart the escalation of infringement on first amendment rights or allow putting our city squarely in the crosshairs of fascist retribution has me stressed to the point of crippling IBS. I’m not sure I can take 3.25 more years of this.

Arrest of conservative influencer Nick Sortor outside Portland ICE building now under federal investigation (CNN) — A conservative influencer who this week posted videos of clashes outside the Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Portland, Oregon, has been released without bond after he was

Expressing President Trump’s stance on Portland, Oregon, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said, “We will not fund states that allow anarchy.”

This is fascism: “The Trump administration cited Sortor’s arrest Friday in a new threat to federal funding for the city: “I just spoke with the president about this, and he has directed his team here at the White House to begin reviewing aid that can potentially be cut in Portland.”

Today, Trump said US military should use Portland as “training grounds” and claimed it “looks like World War Two” here. Meanwhile, protestors were doing the Cha Cha Slide, enjoying tea, blowing bubbles and running around in inflatable chicken costumes. Not sure what kind of training he’s hoping for.

It’s completely blatant. This administration didn’t even wait to bring the cost of food and gas down before they went straight to racism & bigotry with a splash of misogyny mixed in for good measure.

Our coalition has grown to 30,000 federal employees. Details regarding new guidance will be distributed. For those not in our coalition, here is a public message: hide any online content that is public, document everything you witness or experience, and keep daily notes at home with dates and times.

I think a Michigan Senate seat would be a fantastic path forward. And Michiganders would benefit immensely. Win win!

It’s a fancy weather radar map that is updated hourly with snow forecasts that can be zoomed in by region. You can still get a regular weather forecast on their site or other free websites. You’re not missing much.

Trump fired everyone in charge of airplane safety, and a week later planes started crashing into each other. That never happened when Pete Buttigieg was Secretary of Transportation. 🤷‍♀️

That’s his pinned post?! 😬 Blocked.

“I would not have sat down with a murderous dictator like that.”

Tulsi Gabbard is unequivocally unqualified to serve as Director of National Intelligence.

Juvenile Electric Blue Ram Cichlid about 1.25” long and somewhat of a pale blue as it is young and still stressed from the move. It is hiding against a pink rock that partially covers the entrance to a cave. From Aquatic Arts: The Electric Blue Ram Cichlid (Mikrogeophagus ramirezi “Electric Blue”) is a very beautiful, tank-raised variant of its species. This particular variant is known for the incredible neon blue coloration that covers almost its entire body in both males and females. Rams and other dwarf cichlids are very popular among aquarists due to their vivid coloration, small size, and interesting personalities.

My new electric blue ram cichlid boy. Turns out my first one was a girl, so I got her a little buddy. He is still a bit pale and skittish and my male flagfish is being a bit of a bully to him. But I do see the two rams hanging out together periodically, so that’s good. 😊

Cat approved.

Fish tank status update! My Schrödinger danios do not exist outside of feeding time but this here is proof they sometimes exist. 🤣 It’s what I get for creating the perfect Java moss cave under the driftwood. Also… my male flagfish has gotten huge and is a bully to my now hiding blue ram cichlids. 😭

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.

Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.

But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.

They aren’t firing for a reason.

Pete on Trump’s monstrous, racist DEI-blaming lies

FAKE NEWS!! How can anything so white be to blame?!

I, too, like to go to the gym. 😂

I’m more inclined to call RFKJ an opportunistic liar. 😂😤

He actually claimed that he’d never been given the chance to clarify that what he meant was not all vaccines are safe for everyone. This coming from the same guy who claimed Covid vaccines are a crime against humanity. What a crock of shit.
