I detest styrofoam peanuts almost as much as I loathe D Trump!

Trying to teach local mockingbirds Pet Shop Boys songs.

I mostly keep my trap shut and try to promote others' voices.

Treehoppers are wild! Like someone hit the "random" button on the character creator.

Look at this weird bug, Cladonota apicalis. from Ecuador.
Now imagine a horse shaped like this, or a wolf!

Why do treehoppers have such weird shapes?
It's a mystery! But we have some ideas.

You have to keep giving money to avoid collapse and if there’s collapse you have to give more money. It’s called the free market.

CNBC: My understanding is the White House said that China was gonna buy 12 million tons of soybeans from the US by January. That's approaching and they've only purchased 332,000. China has not confirmed that pledge.

Maybe putting a dozen narcissistic poser Fox hosts in charge of sprawling federal agencies with millions of combined employees and vastly important responsibilities with enormous power wasn’t the greatest plan.

Our own propaganda was so powerful it has echoed through generations and seeded discontent into the population 75 years later as we compare ourselves to a world that never existed
The 50s were a victory lap for WW2 US propagandists turned advertisers, shilling a utopian view of tomorrow so hard we compare ourselves to something that didn’t exist

Dipshit is smashing out a car window with his gun, barrel first. Just rogue, cowboy stiff.

There were two US citizens in the car. They were apprehended and detained for “obstructing” ICE by honking their horn to let people know ICE was in the neighborhood.

You can say ICE is being used as a political cudgel to demolish democracy, or you can recognize that’s all they ever have been since their inception.
Attorney General Catherine Hanaway (R) publicly announced she has referred the state’s grassroots referendum campaign to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), claiming without evidence that canvassers are “employing illegal aliens” to collect signatures to overturn the mid-decade redraw.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.

Don't fall for it.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Fox News credulously reports that "the Saudis now say their investment pledge in the US will be increased to $1 trillion." THE ENTIRE GDP OF SAUDI ARABIA IS $1.1 TRILLION, so this is total nonsense.

The measure would compel the DOJ to release files regarding convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. It now goes to the Senate, where some lawmakers want extra guardrails around what can be released.
