Commentary: A steady stream of legislation largely hostile to public education in Ohio has reshaped nearly every aspect of our schools. This has ignored a fundamental question: What do Ohioans actually want and value when it comes to public education? ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/03/10/w...
This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.

The Ohio GOP just stole $600 million from the unclaimed funds account and handed it to Jimmy Haslam, owner of the Cleveland Browns, whose other company Flying J committed massive fraud.
Here's the sequence leading up to the buck sniff clip. A doe marked a spot and the buck found it. He starts to track her, exhibiting Flehman response and moves up to the camera. #Wildlife
Sniff sniff
While my first bird of 2026 was a Red-bellied Woodpecker, I didn't get out and photograph any birds until later in the day when these two, Black-capped Chickadee and Tufted Titmouse teed up on Serviceberry twigs for me. #Birds, #Photography
Thank you for the explanation. I would be suprised not at all if theft of artists' products was rampant on Amazon.
How would this actually work? Does Amazon order from the company selling the product, and sell it at a higher price?
An update: there IS an opt-out email, you should check if your site/merch is in this "feature" and use it. If it's not there now, you should likely set a reminder to check back, since it's new. bsky.app/profile/monk...
Hey so this seems like something more people should be talking about 🤔 🗳️

If the only way for a business to survive is to steal from others, then that business should die.
I dunno Nick; why don't you ask the FBI, who used to track down and threaten teenagers with federal prison time for torrenting Metallica or copying a VHS tape?
Acton: The fact that my opponent is Hindu has absolutely nothing to do with this election. No one’s religion has anything to do with the problems of everyday Ohioans. But this is coming from somebody who has literally spent his life creating culture wars and pitting us against one another.
Acton: [Ramaswamy] literally treats Ohio like a flyover state.
When you love Ohio the way I do, you don’t treat it like a flyover state. You don’t move your business from Ohio to Texas. You don’t pit Ohioans against each other with endless culture wars…
Oh.
Kash lied to congress.

The Orion Nebula is one of the easiest objects to observe in the northern hemisphere, appearing as the middle "star" of Orion's sword, the general shape of this nebula is visible in binoculars or small telescopes and spectacular in larger scopes. #Astro, #Photography
Fantastic capture!
Another dusty patch, this one in the Constellation Cepheus known as the Dark Shark Nebula. #astrophotography
I've seen the same in my science classes. COVID causes brain damage and is especially hard on the prefrontal cortex where many of our cognitive processes and motivations occur. We may be seeing a generation of students permanently disabled by a preventable disease.
It's a little late for Halloween, but here is the Witch Head nebula, a cloud of dust illuminated by the bright star Rigel in Orion. This is a tough object to image from moderately light-polluted skies but doable on moonless nights. #Astrophotography
I'm reprocessing some old data with new tools. I imaged the Horsehead and Flame Nebulae in 2022 using my 61mm refractor with a dual narrowband filter and without. #Astro #Photography
This is the Deer Lick group of galaxies visible in Pegasus, with NGC 7331 in the foreground. This is not a "true" galaxy group as the individual galaxies are not interacting gravitationally. #Astro, #Photography
I wonder if it may have occured to Rep. Swalwell that the Republican may have been lying? After all, he's a Republican representative.

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax
This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.
