The only common ground I want to find with this steaming pile is the earth well both return to when we’re dead.

I will vote Dem, but this is my simple checklist for future federal candidates: 1) Undo 100% of physical damage Trump caused 2) Restore foreign relations 2) Prosecute EVERYone who committed a crime 3) Establish universal health care 4) Eliminate the SSA wage cap 5) Cut Defense spending in half

Lindsey Graham was a fucking racist piece of shit traitor to America. Fuck his memory and fuck the Democrats talking "nice" about him.

You don't have to be a progressive or a radical or whatever to understand the current Dem leadership is a massive failure. Also, please get off your ass and vote this time, OK?

This is simple - it's about making sure Democrats don't vote.

"Honey, I caught some catfish sushi for dinner." An osprey at Emigrant Lake in southern Oregon yesterday afternoon. Canon R7, 500mm, 1/4000, f7.1 #birds

Large bird with brown wings and white belly and head with black stripes carries a foot-long catfish in its talons as it flies over water. The wings are spread upward.

Same bird as in the other photo - large with white underbelly with brown on the back and tips of wings. The bird - an osprey - is hunting for fish and we are seeing it from directly underneath. Its head is turned to the right.

This thread - Dems shooting each other. My take: There are good reasons to oppose data centers in your back yard. Then there are bougie, social media reasons to oppose all data centers everywhere.

I was going through older photos and re-editing. I believe this is a Wilson's snipe (correct me if I'm wrong) I photographed a year ago on the Shasta wildlife area in California. I was shooting from at least 150 feet away but I still managed to wake it up. Got a few shots and backed off. #birds

A short, pudgy bird with a long beak, mostly brown with darker brown to black feathers in some places and a white belly stand on a rock surrounded by water. Reeds are in the blurry background.

It's not a big leap from the administration collecting our voter information to "Democrats are terrorists and their votes don't count." And not that much farther to "Anyone who doesn't support Trump is a traitor." Yeah, I know, but you didn't think we'd get this far either.

A bullock's oriole, probably with young in a nest, is searching for insects on the branch of an oak tree. This was taken a few evenings ago shortly before sunset at Emigrant Lake in southern Oregon. #birds

A bird with an orange face and belly with black back and gray wings perches sideways on a branch, looking for insects underneath the flaky bark. The sky behind is a brilliant blue.

Just returned from a photography, birding, bicycling trip to southern Arizona. I'll post a few photos but this one was kind of cool. This is the cardinal-like pyrrhuloxia. I took the photo in Honeybee Canyon Park in Oro Valley, Arizona. Canon R7, 500mm, F8, 1/4000/ ISO1250. #birds

A grayish bird with spikey top and red accents around face, breast, and wing edges sits on a bare branch and is framed by another bare branch above.

The heavens opened about half way through a gentle 25-mile ride in the Ashland, Oregon watershed yesterday, turning a champagne gravel dirt road closed to motor vehicles into a muddy river. Our inner 12-year-olds had a blast. #gravelbike

The photo shows the bottom bracket of a bike. A crank, knobby tire, and part of a chainring are also visible. Most of components are covered with a thick layer of mud.

“Trump is dismantling democracy” is now considered “violent rhetoric” by the left.

I’m old enough to remember when Trump called Medicare and Medicaid “little scams” and nobody gave a shit.

When people here say "WhAt MoaR cAn tHe DEmS DO?" Well here ya go, assholes. This is one of hundreds of ideas I've seen. We CAN fight back. Many ARE fighting back. But Dem leadership is NOT DOING ENOUGH.

Seems like having vast numbers of members of the military being sick might be a bigger problem.

I know what. Let's don't vote because (pick your reason) and we can have this (and destruction of the global economy) for four years. I am very intelligent.

Our president is a madman. And our opposition party is feckless, spineless, corrupt, and utterly without intelligence, imagination, and courage. And don't give me this "their hands are tied" bullshit. There are legal, PR, political maneuvering, and other things they could do but choose not to.

This is a female red shouldered hawk glaring at me for interrupting her lunch. She then flew back to her nest about 10 feet away. I am watching/tracking this pair of nesting hawks in Ashland, Oregon. #birds

Fairly large bird perched on a limb. The bird - a hawk - is mostly orange brown colored with lighter tan stripes across the breast and black and white wings. The bird is looking very intently directly at the camera.

I still had an asshole in a jacked diesel truck try to smoke me on my bike today. What's funny is not that diesel is $6 here but that it didn't even work very well.

I live in a town where most kids can easily and safely walk or cycle to school. Yet drop off and pick up times feature long lines of motor vehicles. While most of America is DESIGNED to force you to use a car, our town (and many like it) don't. Instead, it's a fucking choice.

Great Horned Owl male perched very near the nest. Female is on the nest. This is this evening in Ashland, Oregon. Caught the last rays of the sun. Hoping for owlets in a few weeks but the trees will be leafed out so viewing could be challenging. #birds

Owl in branches of a tree. Owl has large tufts, brown face, white patch on neck. Breast has horizontal brown and dark tan stripes.

I'm waiting for Trump to wonder why they call it the Straight of Hormuz when it's not straight. I know, I know, but it's a fun game I play to try and anticipate the next stupid shit that spews out of the asshole's mouth.
