The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Given a niche, life finds a way. This deteriorated wood post has a whole micro landscape going on.

Overhead view of an old wood post, with leaf litter and various moss and lichen crawling across the deteriorated and decomposing surface.

While I’m posting Freddie Krueger pics, I wanted to include this one. I love this photo of me & my favorite orange cat… he seems very curious about Mom’s “claws”!

Both the U.S. marshal and the immigrant were shot by federal officers. You’d never know that from this headline.

It does somehow sum everything up neatly. Trashy vulgarian unilaterally decides to tear up an iconic American building as though it’s one of his tacky private clubs, rather than a national monument he has very temporarily (and foolishly) been permitted to inhabit.

Not sure why this image is so shocking, given everything he’s done but: it’s shocking!

Unbelievable story of Afghan refugee, a highly vetted fluent English speaker who helped the US against the Taliban and now lives here with his US citizen kids, declared “illegal” and perhaps about to be shipped home by the Trump admin to his likely death

The Washington Post @washingtonpost.com · 14d

He supported America’s war, escaped Afghanistan and started a family in the U.S.

Then ICE arrested him.

If he is deported, he expects the Taliban to kill him.

America saved him from the Taliban. Trump wants to send him back.

Tim Dillon: "Children being zip tied, or a grandmother being zip tied, people who've maybe lived in a community 30 years and they're not committing a crime...showing up to a high school graduation and deporting someone's father, seems to a lot of people to be inhumane."

Republicans declare themselves patriots, then turn around and block the paychecks of the men and women who defend America.

And what’s really wild, some of those same troops keep voting red while getting screwed over again and again.
