I had an "interaction" today. I was kind (rare) the other was not (not rare). Lady: Are you going to church Me: No Lady: You need church Me: No, I'm good (go to leave) Lady: Everyone needs church Me: No, everyone needs to mind their own business- And maybe wear more deodorant -ok, not that kind

"It's the cruelty folks." Says it all.

The USDA now is stopping shipments to your local food banks . If you've ever been in a food bank the warehouse it's littered with USDA pallets . Huge source for farmers ,huge source for food banks . Starving Americans coming soon to a street corner near you . It's the cruelty folks .

It looks like Germany has "tourists spreading love" as well.

4 Teslas were set on fire in Berlin, Germany today. Police there suggest a “political motive cannot be ruled out” — I’m thinking 1939 hasn’t been forgotten.

Come join the jellyfish fest!

Good news! The DNC is planning People’s Town Halls in 50 states. In my red county we bring a cutout of our cowardly representative to his local office. Repubs show up too! Follow @democrats.org to see if one is coming near you! Make your voices heard!

Many hours have passed and I’ve thought about what happened in the Senate some more. And you know what? I’m still mad as hell. I may just repost their names every day until everyone knows them by heart.

Canada is slashing its order of F-35 fighters from 88 to not more than 32. It will re-invest the billions saved to purchase 60 or more Swedish Saab Gripen E/F-39's. The USA is no longer a trustworthy ally. Simply.

Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

This is gut wrenching.

The bloodbath at NOAA apparently included meteorologists with the National Weather Service; scientists inside what’s simply known as NOAA Research, or the office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR) more formally; technicians that keep up the country’s weather instrumentation;

Where are you, Tallahassee!

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country. This Friday, where will you be? standupforscience2025.org

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.

More accurate, fewer words; "There are plenty of contractors going under". A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary. PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

A lot of people are going to die from this

First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year. “'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'" Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/u...

I'm with you. We really have lost sight of what is important.

Dr. Genevieve Guenther (she/they)@doctorvive.bsky.social

This is so fucking depressing. Ten @nytopinion columnists rate which of Trump's actions have been most consequential so far, and his destruction of climate policy and climate science doesn't even make it on the grid. The world is insane. Clinical levels of denial everywhere.
