Yes. That is my post. I stand corrected. However, I am sincere in wanting to understand more about Tom’s actual thoughts on actions concerned citizens can take. Tonight’s summary was actually the best one I’ve seen from him on my question.

I don’t believe that I’ve ever posted on BlueSky to one of Tom’s posts as this person alleges. I’d like to see the post, because I have not found it.

Thank you for this valuable summary. This improves my understanding of your position. Very useful.

I guess others will determine whether I’m out of line. What do you all say, folks? Is dayglo guy correct ?

Point me to the most relevant post that addresses my questions…I don’t live here like many of folks. But, I am seriously search for the best way to respond. I’m concerned an out our country.

I guess, Tom, I’d like to understand when (and what) the appropriate steps are for general citizenry to take action. What should we do and when should we do it? Or, maybe you think we shouldn’t be worried?

Great post. The double standard applied by these folks never ceases to amaze me. I guess THEIR views are the CORRECT one!!!

Great story! There are literally millions of culverts across our US forests and landscapes. They are a great and hidden environmental impact. Remediation has significant biotic impact and improvement when done correctly!

One of my granddaughter’s first complete sentences was: β€œI like pie.” Runs in the family!

Sort of like the one-armed paper-hanger?

Wasting time arguing about this is somewhat akin to the sad folks who spent their time rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

It's the Guns. America is the only rich democracy that features the routine mass slaughter of its citizens with guns. Why does this happen? The data show a really clear picture: It's the guns. Yes, it's that simple.

Early reports of a school shooting this morning at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis (I was baptized at the church there). As always: it's the guns. The US is the only country in the world that politically tolerates and legally ensures the routine mass slaughter of its own citizens.

Terrain.org - Online Environmental Magazine of Literature and Place Terrain.org is an online environmental magazine of poetry, nonfiction, fiction, editorials, interviews, reviews, Unsprawl case studies, and art since 1998.

Oh, thank you! I will look it up. I’ve read each of your books, except the first one! Loved Brave the Wild River. I read your contributions on Terrain.org as well. Todd Davis, the poet and a friend, shared that site many years ago. Thanks for your work!

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

I think it comes down to the spiritual poverty of the Evangelical ideologies flowing in the undercurrent of the GOP.

Incredible moments tonight from the courageous, powerful press conference from @gavinnewsom.bsky.social.....

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

The fear is palpable, Joe. Right there with you. He’s trashing my TIAA on the other side by killing the stock market.

Same in PA! I believe there’s a strong linear relationship between age and treachery level.

We need to do this more…and encourage our students to do this as well. Organizing our thinking with multiple conceptual models is really key to understanding landscapes in new ways. We’re just too focused on parsing our work into 3-year grant chunks and producing LPU’s (least publishable units).
