Hi. The highlights are as follows: I'm a caver. It's almost all I think about. Followed by eurorack modular synthesis. My favorite band is The Legendary Pink Dots. I restore habitats & destroy non-native plants for a living.

Why do conservatives live in such a dystopian fever dream? And why do they want to drag everyone else down there with them?

No one cares more for the land of this country than the amazing people inside the Park Service. Thank you!

I'd like to speak on behalf of the majority of the people in the United States and sincerely request that we be able to take a Mulligan.

The government is not a business. By design it is not supposed to run quickly. Why? So that we can really think about our course actions affecting millions of people before irrevocable damage is done on by the whims of the few.

Arrest Elon for treason!

One anonymous source, a senior administration official says...... sounds like propaganda which should be taken with a grain of salt.

Hey Trump, why don't you double cross Musk for treason. It will look really good for your personal career. You could spend this so easily. Your followers would eat it up.

Got away from the din for a brief moment. This was a surprisingly decorated pit for the area. Saw a lot of deer too, some large bucks, one of which allowed us to follow him for several minutes. Crept upon a turkey vulture too. Solid, almost surreal day. 😊

The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s staffers. America, please stand with usβ€”we are fighting to defend this country!

@canada Can I come live with you for maybe four years or more? I'm very good at invasive species removal, prescribed burns, and trail maintenance.

Exclusive: Musk aides lock government workers out of computer systems at US agency, sources say Aides to Elon Musk charged with running the U.S. government human resources agency have locked career civil servants out of computer systems that contain the personal data of millions of federal employees, according to two agency officials.

it's not hyperbolic to say we're witnessing a coup.

Wait, shouldn't that get them deported for being an illegal alien too?

As someone who often ventures out into the countryside, the stronghold of TrΓΌmp supporters, I saw far less support this time round versus the first go round. This is a hostile takeover of the US government by the rich. Will you come to our aid as we once aided them?

Watching FΓΌhrer TrΓΌmp dismantle our government is terrifying. It baffles me that people didn't see this coming. It baffles me that no one's doing anything about it. At the risk of sounding like a nut job I don't believe he won the election either.

Word can't express what it's like underground. Everything falls away. All your stresses, concerns, fears, worries, time itself seems to stop. There is only your crew and the cave. All focus is on the cave and what you are experiencing, otherwise you could die. It's peaceful and invigorating.

Looks like it. I imagine there's gonna be a pretty steep learning curve as I have no idea what I'm doing yet.

Hard to believe a 400' shaft is waiting just a few feet from this dripping manhole in the ceiling. We parked it here for a bit of rest and snacks.

One from this past weekend in which much more than ever before was revealed. It's a damn fine cave.

This is a 200' dome in an SCCI cave in Tennessee. It was quite the invigorating chore to get here. Waterfall climbs, wet suits, pancake crawls. All the good stuff. Hallways of gypsum crystals. Ace.

Hi. Facebook expat here. I don't know what I'm going to do with this space. This is my first post. I'm into caving and eurorack modular synthesizers. I'll probably share lots of caving photographs.
