We would like to thank Kristi Noem for bringing cameras with her everywhere and collecting evidence for her future trial at The Hague.

Whatever that praying means for you, get it done. That includes scientifically cheering for her wellbeing. Don’t fuss about it, just make good thoughts for a good woman.

you! are! a! lawyer!

I fear that the legal community will act like Trump admin's lawyers are normal lawyers--like they'll get nice firm jobs and their law schools will invite them to talk to students, etc--but the lawyers facilitating Trump's lawlessness should be professionally and socially shamed

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

They’re moving quickly because they get less popular every day.

They’ll never be more popular than they are now and they are extremely unpopular.

Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others.

Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla:

“People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.”

Both Paul Reid and Stephen Wahab, two Portlanders on the Global Sumud Flotilla, have been intercepted and taken by Israeli forces.

I will try to update when I can, but it may be some time before we hear anything.

I am going to go to bed. But what I want to do is see if epa's espm is - as I predicted a year ago - offline.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important

New Orleans has had the fewest murders this year since 1970. Carjackings are down 80% relative to 2022, vehicle burglaries are down 70%, shootings are down 63%. This is a wholly unnecessary stunt that will hurt local businesses.

Blue cities should tear up the roads in front of ICE facilities and then start decades of community engagement and input sessions to rebuild them. Let's harness our core competencies.

War ravaged Portland.

You love to see it!

whoa. Every single one of the Sinclair advert buyers on this list is automotive or automotive related (insurance). That is one aspect of the power in our society held by car companies that I haven't seen studied enough.

There is a play on "who killed the electric car?" to be had but I'm not clever enough to find it...

Destroy car dealerships and you save US democracy

the most important thing to remember when you see eugenicists who don’t believe that autistic people should exist rambling about “the autism epidemic” is not that they’re wrong about the “cause” (although they are absolutely wrong about it); it’s that they are eugenicists

And we all know how GREAT August 2020 was 😭😭😭
