Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post would not run this ad. This is the power of oligarchy.

There's a great restaurant in Woodbridge, Va., called "New York Pizza Grill Kabobs."

I didn't like expanding police surveillance powers before, and after the past two weeks, I really don't.

So, they retain control of it and get to keep it after the police use it to invade the privacy of anyone on the video? Cool.

I found you through mutual Nashville posts on Threads, and we are like-minded! 😸 Donating to hopefully make things a little easier for your sister and family. Best of luck to her this week!

Not "is failing." HAS failed. And I say that as a former journalist.

It's definitely winter when the dark-eyed juncos show up in Tennessee. (Especially when they're sitting in the snow.)

Looks fine small on here, but when you expand it there's a lot of noise. But Celeste is right, I think -- the quality on Bluesky isn't optimal. But having a positive, fun platform makes me OK with that.

Lovely bird.

It's the last day of a tough year, and I hope everyone is feeling love, like this #monkey mom holding her baby in Kenya. 💖

A brown waterbuck with two large curved horns looks at the camera, while a lighter brown horned impala behind him mirrors his pose. They are in a field of green grass.

Antelopes are perfectly beautiful and graceful species. Here a waterbuck (front, with the heart-shaped nose) and an impala strike mirrored poses for me in #Kenya.

A gray and black tufted titmouse bird looks to the left, where orange and yellow and green leaves spring from gray branches.
