Snagged this from FB. This may make some people uncomfortable but I think it highlights just how far we've come from what's natural, from our relationship to the Earth that sustains us and our beautiful relatives we share it with.

An Oregonian that has lived in Texas and now lives in Tucson, AZ. Runner, HIIT, Travel, Sports, PNW, Go Beavs NO DM's PLEASE!! Do not comply in advance. I will not give into the lies. I will not give into the fear.
Homan on people getting killed by ICE: "These people failed to comply with law enforcement. If they did comply they'd be alive today." ERGO All the Jan. 6 insurrectionists who did not comply with Law enforcement, should have been killed on the spot.
Ossoff: "Here's what's going to happen tonight: the world's most famous sore loser will deliver a prime-time presidential sour grapes address to pursue his 6-year-old grievances about the 2020 election, while his war in the Middle East spirals out of control & the cost of living continues to rise.."
Talarico: "It's funny because I'm the eighth-generation Texan in the race. I think California transplants like Ken Paxton can become Texans. That's what great about our state."
It's a sign of how shockingly corrupt this country has become that a nominee for Attorney General is given a hearing by the Senate *the very same week* he has been referred by a judge for possible disbarment for unethical behavior. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
THIS IS NOT MORMAL… Acting AG Todd Blanche professing his love for Donald Trump: “Thank you very much. I love you, sir.”
Quote of the day: “I am his lawyer.” ~ Todd Blanche, Attorney General nominee
OSSOFF: Who won the 2020 election? CLAYTON: Uhm, you know, I'm not going to do this with you O: This is a job interview. You have an obligation to be honest with the committee. Who won the 2020 election? C: I'm not gonna get into that with you O: You're not being honest or forthright C: ...
Yes, human use is not the only use - and all uses are interdependent.
For anyone who missed this: In 2021, Pete Hegseth was blocked from Biden's inauguration because a fellow service member flagged him as a potential security threat. Now, he's leading "The Department of War." 🙄 www.politico.com/news/2024/11...
Pete Hegseth had been flagged by fellow service member as possible ‘Insider Threat’
He’s said he was unfairly identified as an extremist due to a cross tattoo on his chest.

This person is making the argument that to teach Democrats a lesson we should hand California to Republicans. This is why people are abandoning Bluesky. I am fighting to end this bullshit sentiment. I think Bluesky is worth it. We just have to end this kind of bullshit. Elect Democrats!
This is what corruption and wasting taxpayers' money looks like
Cosplaying working class Rafael Cruz went to Princeton and Harvard. When he flees his constituents without power, he stays at the Ritz-Carlton. His wife, Heidi, is Managing Director at the fancy investment firm Goldman Sachs. They are not men & women with callouses on their hands. They are elites.
If I was Iran, I’d be saying “We will only negotiate with Obama”
Just because the President deploys ICE agents to airports doesn’t change the facts: He’s in the Epstein Files. He started an unauthorized war he can’t end. Americans are struggling, and he’s failed to pass legislation, even though they control Congress & the White House. Time for accountability.
The real story… under any other president this would be jail time…
When Trump said he would bring on a "New Golden Age," he was talking about his wallet.
Zach Everson@zacheverson.com · 5mo agoGood morning! Since Trump was re-elected, Forbes estimates— 💰His net worth is up $2.1 billion, to $6.4 billion 💰Eric’s is up 10x, to $400 million 💰Don Jr.’s is up 6x, to $300 million 💰19-year-old Barron is worth $150 million And Jared became a billionaire last year. Have a great day!
Hegseth should spend a little less time worrying about how he looks in photos and a little more time fixing the fucking disaster he has created in Iran and the Strait of Hormuz.
The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 5mo agoExclusive: The Defense Department has barred photojournalists from briefings on the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran after they published photos of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth that his staff deemed “unflattering,” according to two people familiar.
So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion. That's $1 billion per day. $41,666,667 per hour. $11,574 per second. Thousands of lives lost. People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”
Aliya Rahman, woman who was dragged out of car by ICE in Minneapolis: "I've spent the last month learning the names of the tendons in my shoulder, because both of my shoulders are torn -- cartilage and tendons. But what I haven't learned is the names of the people who did this to me."
