"After weighing these factors, Paulk has decided for the first time in his life to cast a ballot for a Democrat -- Ossoff. He doesn't agree with him on all issues -- notably, abortion -- but it's Ossoff's help in getting federal aid after Helene wreaked havoc on Paulk's grape crop that won his vote"

An enormous fire all but destroyed an infamous Nazi-era guesthouse known as the Eagle’s Nest in southern Germany, according to the police, who said on Saturday that a man had been arrested in connection with the blaze.

She was amazing and brave! (And I’m sure he smelled like body odor and stale/greasy old man scalp! 🤢)

If you compile a list of all Jewish businesses to target, you are a fucking Nazi and hate Jewish ppl. Stop pretending you aren't.

"Antizionism isn't antisemitism." said all the new Nazis as they adjusted their keffiyehs to drape stylishly. "We're just making maps of all the Jewish businesses in Barcelona for AWARENESS."

This is what happens when our allies can't rely on us. Don't blame them one bit.

Here’s something you should know about minks: They have lungs and airways remarkably similar on a cellular level to those of people. They’ve spread flus and infected humans before with COVID-19. Right now, bird flu is spreading on a Utah farm filled with thousands of them… 🧵

YIKES!! ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

Election warning...I've been seeing on the news how some voting machines changed people's votes from Democrat to Republican. My sister just told me that it happened to her today in South Carolina. People must review their votes before pushing submit. Please spread the word!

There's also a live feed here too: www.lavote.gov/home/voting-...

If you join @lwv.org & live in/near Los Angeles County, you can watch ballot processing and counting at this facility on election night w/ fellow Leaguers. LACO is so vast, some ballots arrive by helicopter from Catalina Island and the Antelope Valley. The rest arrive by trucks under armed guard.

Also, as I have recommended multiple times: Go vote with someone vulnerable to the voter fraud conspiracy theories. Friends with a trans person who will be under suspicion bc of their ID or a brown person who speaks mostly Spanish? Don't make them go to the polls alone.

Celeste Pewter@celestepewter.bsky.social · yesterday

If you haven't already, 1. Make a plan to vote, 2. Study your ballot this weekend, 3. Help your family and friends make plans too (e.g. can you take them to the polls/vote centers or drop off their ballots?) 4. Ask them to pass it forward.

There was a fucking hole in our planet’s *atmosphere* Like a legit, no joke, “this will unravel our entire ecosystem” hole in the world, and then we fixed it by working together across national and political lines As a species we decided, “we will survive” Let’s do that some more

It was the easiest election ever. Anyone who didn't vote for Harris is complicit.

NEW from me: Beth Fuller was a 10-year CDC contractor when she was DOGE'd last year by Trump + Elon Musk, a mass layoff process cheered by the GOP. Now she's a candidate in a key swing district that could end the GOP’s decades-long grip on total power in Georgia. www.huffpost.com/entry/beth-f...
