@akilah.bsky.social I thought of your Rebel Spirit podcast when I saw this headline. "Speiser said he and other Freeburg natives believe the mascot isn’t meant to be offensive..." 🙄🙄 www.stlpr.org/education/20...

Midgets no more? Bill would require Freeburg High School to change its mascot
The Midgets mascot originated roughly 90 years ago. If passed by Illinois lawmakers, the bill would require the Metro East high school to change by September 2028.

Bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers are on the grill with a little mesquite. I've been catching little whifs of smoky goodness as I sit out here with a beer 25 minutes later. The sun is shining and it almost feels like spring in Kentucky.

If anyone is having a difficult day, or you just need a pick-me-up, there is a school project where kindergarteners give you a pep talk. Call (707) 873-7862 It’s automated and it’s so very precious. 😭💕🥰

These 13 major companies caved to the far right and stopped DEI programs
With the news about Walmart, Ford Motor Co., and others, it's clear that this is a trend — and it's being driven by right-wing extremists.

genuinely this just became one of my favorite jwst images ever. it looks like a cosmic painting!!! what a GREAT way to start 2025.
An infrared light echo traveling from the lower left through the upper right of the image. The image is speckled with dozens of white stars, some showing Webb’s signature 8-point diffraction spikes, against the black background of space. The image also shows tightly packed, glowing red filaments that resemble muscle fibers or wood grain.⁣ Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, J. Jencson (Caltech/IPAC)⁣

Trump is planning a rally on January 19th - the day before inauguration. Is he doing this to again threaten Capital Hill if there is no speaker of the house and Chuck Grassley is about to be appointed interim President? Or does he just want to boost his inauguration attendance?

People focusing on whether or not he has a mandate are missing the point. He has control of all three wings of the federal government. Our energy would be better spent preparing for the worst outcomes imaginable.
