Nature lover and gardener in the Northeastern U.S. Recent refugee from Shitty-Twitter and Facebook for ethical reasons. Excited to find so many other people interested in ecology and nature photography here. Photos are my own unless otherwise noted.

I am so very, very tired of all these tech assholes and their Very Special Boy Syndrome. The only known cure is poverty. We must confiscate and redistribute all of their assets. For their own good, and for the good of society.

Melber: You’re saying the VP has low T. You’ve called Mike Rogers a beta. El-Sayed: I'm just saying that they like to lead on strength. Strength is about being able to stand up to the problem. The problem is Donald Trump, and you don't see much standing up to Donald Trump

You probably know this, but ... You can listen to ProPublica's fearless journalism for free. Personally, I like to take in these dauntingly long stories this way while I'm doing mindless chores. (And no weird AI voices with bizarre valley-girl intonations either) www.propublica.org/article/fbi-...

New approach: If a reporter is interrupted, harassed, insulted, or abused, the press should exit the room. Period. If Trump refuses to answer a legitimate news question or claims it was a dumb question, every other reporter must ask the same question until Trump tires out or answers.

NYT has now independently corroborated all the major allegations against Susan Collins in the ProPublica report, including that investigators were prepared to move against her and then Trump intervened to shut it down. This put Trump in a position of exceptional and extortionate leverage over her.

F.B.I. Shut Down Inquiry Into Top Ally of Senator Susan Collins
The inquiry was closed last year because senior bureau officials questioned the veracity of a campaign donor’s account, according to current and former officials.

One post-election narrative is already pre-baked: Voters turned out *against Trump* not *for Dems*—ergo Dems' post-2024 reckoning must continue. The first part will be true. The second part doesn't follow AT ALL. What should follow is *doing what voters signaled they want* so that they are grateful.

Swing Voters Won’t Be Grateful If Democrats Capitulate
Independents aren’t abandoning Republicans because Republicans refuse to pass message bills, but because they’ve given Trump carte blanche. We’ll know whether Democrats understand this by December.

Not BREAKING NEWS because the Trump admin has been deleting and altering federal datasets for over a year. You can argue about policy. But when the government starts eliminating the data we use to determine whether those policies are actually working, that deserves a hell of a lot more attention.
