Here’s the full article, for anyone else who wants to read further:

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Awww 🥹. Before I read the caption, I was looking at the one lamb off by themself, think they sure looked thin. But I don’t really know anything about lambs, so maybe they are just greyhound shaped. Then I read the caption. So glad you found her! She looks like she needed you 💜!

Im sure he’s trying to look imperious, but he mostly looks like he forgot his readers.

IDK about other countries, but, at this point, it’s just another day in America.

Of course, all lives matter. But currently, trans folks and immigrants are taking a significant amount of these laws and cruelty.

I can’t speak for all of us, but when I read/think about “end of life plans,” I’m thinking about wellness farms, state-sponsored violence, and lack of access to health care.

Technically, the teachers criticized CK, his supporters, and gun culture, not Trump, but it seems close enough. I haven’t read your book yet, but it seems very relevant to what’s happening to teachers here in TX, so I plan to. It’s very scary, very high stakes, and too early to celebrate.

I wish this were true. I just don’t see it yet. Im watching serious, life changing attacks on people in my immediate sphere as a result of criticizing him (et al). Non-partisan government employees are losing jobs and under investigation and almost 300 Texas teachers as well.

"All the atoms that make each of us up—the iron in our blood, the calcium in our bones, the carbon in our brains—were manufactured in red giant stars thousands of light-years away in space and billions of years ago in time. We are, as I like to say, starstuff."
-Carl Sagan,The Demon-Haunted World

"Every kid starts out as a natural-born scientist, and then we beat it out of them. A few trickle through the system with their wonder and enthusiasm for science intact."

“I’m so happy” 🇮🇹

Italian drivers stuck in standstill traffic because of the massive nationwide pro-Palestine protests are… completely fine with it

A political party that was serious about defeating fascism, strengthening real democracy, pursuing justice and promoting the common welfare could do a whole host of effective things before sending us each 7000 texts a day asking for more money. But that’s what they think their job is!

Comedian Drew Lynch was onstage and had just begun his stand-up set when he saw a man in the audience who was in cardiac arrest.

After the man was taken to the hospital, Lynch resumed his set — but not as he had originally intended. https://wapo.st/4pLAXRA

We have people in power making broad claims around certain drugs and autism that have been continuously disproven.

Get you someone who loves you like a cat loves the corner of a laptop

I went to Catholic school, and we even knew the Bible isn’t a history book.

Oklahoma just turned indoctrination into state policy: mandating classroom Bibles while pretending amendments 11 - 27 don’t exist.

Public schools should teach real history, not change it in order to fit a political agenda.

CLIP: “Figuring out ways to love my neighbor became so hard as a Republican.”

Ex-GOP Lt. Gov. of GEORGIA Geoff Duncan, now running for Gov as a Dem, says others are having the same journey — and the “tone & tenor” inside the GOP chased him away.

Hillary Clinton unloads about RFK Jr. and Donald Trump, warning about the danger they pose to America’s health.

Reminder that September is National library card month, so you should totally go get a library card! Yes, they have books, but many also have dvds, cds, video games, game systems, hot spots, streaming services, ebooks, audio books, park passes, museum passes, and more! Maybe it's time for a visit!

lol, thank you! I’m just slow to make the transition over here 😂

Is that a conflict of interest or dual relationship or something? (Not rhetorical.) It feels like “weird boundaries,” but IDK about historical precedent either way.

Something in the tax laws and redlining is my guess. If it was in the water, I wouldn’t have been able to become the insufferable leftist, queer, feminist atheist I am now. I don’t even filter 😂.

Polar plunge

Polar bear Nora loves to dive, so care staff came up with a way to safely place a camera at the bottom of her pool to watch her underwater. Beary cool!

Screenshot of the Atlantic Signal exchanges, including Michael Waltz saying "the first target - their top missile guy - we had positive ID of him walking into his girlfriend's building and it's now collapsed".

Not to be a wide-eyed naïf about such things but... am I right in thinking that they levelled an entire building to get to one guy and *that* is not controversial to anyone in the American media or political class, only that this information was recklessly shared in an unsecured chat?

On a background of yellowed paper, bold text reads: Declaration of Life. If I disappear, I did not go willingly. If I die, it was not by my hand. Existence is resistance.

This probably seems grim, but given recent events, it might be a good idea to publicly display a declaration of life, especially if you fall into one of the target demographics
