@paulisci.bsky.social Hello Paul! Any word on when your book will be released? I was a backer in 2023 through Unbound but haven't received any updates. And their site is now inactive.

Second junco nest found in my hanging flower baskets. That makes 2 for 4.

The good news is that the constitution provides ways for Congress and the Judiciary to reign in a power-hungry president. The bad news is those people are all scared of him.

Interesting theory that I’m leaning towards is true.

If elected Republicans believe our mass shootings are a mental health issue, why are they defunding the VA that provides mental health services?

I'm still in disbelief that there is a segment of the population that thinks what Elon is doing is not only acceptable, but fantastic. It's truly horrifying.

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

Elected Republicans who are going along with Trump's illegal activities are either weak or complicit. Always call them out on either of these two things.

Strange. Disney+ is advertising "The Simpsons: The Past and the Furious" but it's nowhere to be found. It was released 2/12. Their tech support said it was pulled from the platform for some reason. No ETA for its return. #disney #simpsons

I enjoyed this comment I found online: The problem with talking with MANY, NOT All, Old school Dems is that they still want to use Robert's Rules while the game has moved to The Art of War.

@gilduran.com @george-lakoff.com How effective is the messaging “No one elected Elon”? I like the simplicity of it. But concerned because it repeats Elon’s name as well as reinforces “elected”.

Listening to an audiobook I learned about an experiment. The author extrapolated that our brains are hardwired to look for threats and in the absence of them it starts assuming safe things are dangerous. Explains a lot about our current society as we are the safest we have ever been in history.

Zuck just made several accounts follow the FOTUS’s Facebook page without notifying users. May want to unfollow that page. How scared is Zuck?

Zuck looks terrified. Lex Luther looks nonplused.

Can someone explain to me why when someone is elected to a partisan office and then switches parties it doesn’t automatically trigger a special election? Wouldn’t this fall under false advertising?

I’m enjoying the second sun that was installed yesterday down the street from me. After my chat with the foreman he’s going to try and remedy the situation.

The most disappointing thing about American Primeval is that it's not a sequel to the amazing BBC series.

A couple weeks ago I was excited to purchase a screw, bolt, and nut thread sizer. A couple days ago I bought a digital radon detector. And today I bought an endoscopic camera to look inside my walls, drains, and vents. Guess I’ve officially entered the house maintanence nerd phase.

Congratulations conservative media! You have successfully convinced a majority of people that crime is everywhere and will strike at any time. People are now paranoid and hypercritical of others. Well done...

Why, oh why, do I go on to NextDoor: Person A: What is your opinion on X? Me: I think it's okay. Person B: You're wrong. Me: But I was asked my opinion. And my opinion is X. Person B: You're so very wrong (doubles down & posts incorrect link to support them) Me: Need I remind you it's an opinion.

I’ve tuned out. Focusing mostly on my mental well-being, parenting, and employment. I stepped back from almost all my political work, which has upset some. apnews.com/article/poli...

apnews.com

Americans are exhausted by political news. TV ratings and a new AP-NORC poll show they're tuning out

A lot of Americans, after an intense presidential election campaign, are looking for a break in political news.

It's always interesting to see the posts on NextDoor and Being Neighborly between the "It's my right/freedom to set off illegal explosives" and "Please be considerate of pets and people with PTSD". Especially interesting as it cuts across political beliefs.

I keep seeing articles about how we just need to understand each other. But I feel this is disingenuous. MAGA doesn’t want to understand others. So why is the onus put on the rest of us when they aren’t willing to do the work?

My 80 yo mom is visiting this week. Last night she wanted to watch the news. I told her it would take me a moment to find something but that the state of the world is so terrible right now I'd rather not listen to the news. She couldn't believe that I didn't want to know what was going on.

Found this cool clock at a thrift store this weekend. A little silver paint and it fit right in with my other decor. Also, really happy to discover a local source for red and green LED Christmas lights.

Is “Quit parking in my driveway!” the new “Get off my lawn!”? If so, I’ve reached a new milestone.

Important thread. As you say timothysnyder.bsky.social "On Tyranny" is an important read - 'Do not obey in advance' www.youtube.com/watch?v=9toc... The lost Democrat vote in 2024 election shows just how many have already done so.

Remember during Trump's first term when a Russian ambassador was found on a beach near one of our trans-atlantic cables? That was in violation of where he was allowed to travel to. www.npr.org/2024/11/20/n...
