the second el-sayed chose to treat tommy as an equal and not a nuisance, tommy was cooked

I know America. I know that, in America, we believe in a country big enough for all of us. So, JD Vance, don't you dare come from Ohio to lecture me. You don't know a damn thing about America.

A journalist asks Zelensky whether he thinks that Trump is treating him as a scapegoat for his own problems. And Zelensky responds.

El-Sayed: JD Vance called me a little weasel today. No, what you’re talking about is a fucking wolverine.

If there’s one photo to sum up the Trump era, this is it.

this is so fucking sad

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #crooners (birds singing). And goodness knows this Common Yellowthroat (such a pedestrian name for such a pretty bird) was making quite the racket this May morn. #birds #photography #commonyellowthroat #GeothlypisTrichas #ErieMarshPreserve #Michigan

You guys want to hear a short but adorable story that happened right in front of me at the baggage claim in NYC yesterday? I wasn't part of it and there are bits I didn't catch but holy crap, I can't stop thinking about it.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Silhouette. My silhouette photos are all accidental; they happen when both light and my experience are lacking. Said photos are generally underwhelming, but this #GreatBlueHeron pic is fairly cromulent. #birds #photography #GBH #ArdeaHerodias #ErieMarshPreserve

Happy 72nd Birthday to Ruby Bridges, who at the age of 6 desegregated the New Orleans public schools. She’s younger than 30 senators and our last two presidents—and only 7 years older than Barack Obama. The past isn’t past.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Herons&Egrets; any Heron or Egret shot. This dude is all neck. #birdphotography #photography #birding #birds #GreatBlueHeron #GBH #Ardea_herodias #ErieMarshPreserve

throng.cee.wtf i've invented a new way to browse bluesky

Russian missile and drone attacks on Ukraine intensified dramatically the instant Trump became president

I’m not willing to regard Trump slaughtering wild horses at the same time he’s offering Americans cheap “ground beef” as simply a coincidence . . .

Tales of everyday corruption. Pete Hegseth cancelled the $400,000 contract for making uniforms for the Blue Angels on the grounds that the contract with "The Sewing Box" was DEI since the firm is Black-owned. Instead, he awarded it to a Trump donor for $1,690,000, a 325% price increase!

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #CHE (Cormorants, Herons and Egrets), so here is a Great Blue Heron just chillin' in the morning sun. #GreatBlueHeron #ErieMarshPreserve

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #EyeOfTheWild, so I present a #CanadaGoose giving a bit of sideeye.

A Grayslake, IL board meeting had people demanding action be taken to stop the T5 hyperscale data center. The board tried to limit speakers to 2 minutes. The mayor left and police intimidated the 1st speaker. The 2nd time it didn't go well for the police. Stand together.

The Republican Party’s new favorite talking point is calling Democrats communists…

Been chasing this noisy little bugger for a bit more than two months now. Heard its call a thousand+ times, but never saw more than a flash of brown amongst the tall grasses until yesterday, just in time for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme of #Lifer. #MarshWren #bird #ErieMarshPreserve

Did you hear about the DC July 4 fireworks show? It promises 850,000 fireworks in 40 minutes. That's 354 per second. You'll miss up to 142 of them every time you blink. For your edutainment, I proudly present the nerdiest thing you will read about this dangerously absurd / absurdly dangerous event.

😀👍

Listened to an NPR story this morning about mass child starvation in Senegal without a single mention of Elon Musk, the guy who gleefully created the conditions for the mass starvation

Follow this: First, Trump quietly buys up to $5 million of Dell stock. Then, he urges his followers to “go out and buy a Dell.” Today, his Pentagon awards a $9.7 billion deal to Dell. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Just when you thought you'd seen it all

FYI

Every time you drink out of a straw you’re giving a tiny blowjob

I’d pay good money to see Trump and Pope Leo debate Bible issues, face to face, live.

Evangelical Christian leaders literally gathering around a gold statue of the president and celebrating it, all while raging against any accusation of idolatry. This is what idol worship looks like.

With enough deep ideological commitment and a compliant legislature, we can make people starve! Great work, America.

Trump: I'm going to destroy an entire civilization. We're going to keep killing people in boats. Senator Kelly should be executed. ICE protesters are domestic terrorists. Immigrants are vermin. Raskin: Donald Trump is bad for this country. Bash: Do you regret your heated rhetoric, Rep. Raskin?

Priceless post from the official White House social media

Another one of those what-if-it-happened-in-another-country moments: The president is suing the government for $100 million dollars for searching his home for the classified documents he stole, and the attorney who represented him on those charges is currently leading the Justice Department.

I think often of a New York Times photo of a little Iraqi girl tending to her parakeets in a bombed house, probably from 20 years ago now. I will think of this man and his sweet dog often now too. People just want to love what they love, care for their little beings, and instead we do this to them

"[W]hen you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab 'em by the power plant. You can do anything."

Trump lies so much that you can’t even believe the opposite of what he says.

We always have the billions of dollars to bomb people to oblivion halfway around the world. Our government is willing to pay for endless war. This means we can afford universal healthcare, parental leave, robust public schools, and universal basic income. We have the money. Never doubt this.
