There's a whole bunch of reasons the left (even, or especially, center-left) will never have their own Rogan, but to even imagine such an analog, the hypothetical person would have to be communism/anarchism-curious in the way Rogan is fascist-friendly and in a way Dems would never accept

Nobody is identifying as transgender to compete in sports.

Green graphic with black text that reads: Instead of asking why people won’t just go to a shelter, we should be asking what shelters are lacking that makes trying to survive outside feel like a safer, better option for so many people. The unhoused community certainly isn’t to blame for local governments spending significant amounts of money on ineffective solutions. They aren’t to blame for the housing crisis or the fact that rents continue to rise at alarming rates. If you’re frustrated with how homelessness has been handled in your community, direct your energy towards communication with your elected officials, not with those who are suffering as a consequence of circumstances beyond their control.

this attitude — paperwork is for sissies, real wars are won by Big Strong Men — is traditionally a harbinger of ruinous for defeat for everyone who holds it

Trump’s Attacks on DEI Get Approval From Some in the Left Wing Many Democrats and activists are rallying to defend diversity programs, but others say they distract from deeper efforts to address inequality.

i'll be blunt, if you are someone who is vocal about the ways that diversity efforts "divide the working class" but silent about the ways that *actual racism and discrimination* divide the working class, then i think you're just an opportunist

Glad we have replaced the concept of freshwater lakes with this technology.

Fondly remembering “Leaners” - the short-lived but exciting DIY venue and practice space we created in the New System Laundry building many years back. Some great shows were hosted!

Eight smelt camps on the frozen Cathance River with a foot bridge in the foreground and a tressel bridge in the background.

A wide path on a frozen river with two rows of smelt camps being touched by the setting sun.

Finally enough ice for smelt camp this weekend.

I don’t think that one is on my list, added!

Portland, Maine has some really cool community gardens. My goal in 2025 is to photograph all of them.
