what a day

Here's how you do it

We need your help. At Merrymac we have almost 100 bird friends so we’re obviously terrified by the spread of bird flu. We’ve been scrambling to get new procedures, equipment, and structures in place but it has been expensive. Can you donate to help us save our flock? donorbox.org/mmfs-protect...

I think countries around the world should levy tariffs specifically on Tesla in response to US tariffs, as well as banning Twitter as a national security threat driving a wedge between our co-dictators may be the most effective thing they can do

The USA has had two major plane crashes in the last 4 days. The USA had previously not suffered a major plane crash for 16 years. ‘DEI’ programs have existed for decades. So what was it that changed in the last 14 days or so to suddenly cause so many crashes?

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

As chilling a meme as I have seen. But I agree.

We are in scary times with immigration sweeps, executive orders & farmworkers laboring in thick wildfire smoke. We're scrambling to do everything at once & our resources are stretched thin. Be there for farmworkers. Make a donation today ufw.org/scarytimes or paypal.com/paypalme/ufwdonate #WeFeedYou

Attention weather geeks!

The rules, if you are keeping track: If a single left activist anywhere in the world says "defund the police," it becomes the official position of the Democratic Party, now and forever. If the president's top surrogate repeatedly sieg-heils on stage, it's ambiguous, impossible to interpret.

Yup, @jamellebouie.net has this exactly right. What these guys are celebrating/pursuing/yearning for is not masculine energy, it's *adolescent* energy. Drinking Red Bull, crushing Call of Duty, refusing to clean your room. It is indescribably pathetic. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/o...

Here is a thread of California animal welfare orgs who need donations to help deal with the wildfire crisis (but they VERY DESPERATELY need adopters and foster homes too if you live close enough to help in that way): 1. Los Angeles County Animal Care: ambvzmmw.donorsupport.co/page/FUNAFLE...

Maybe consider not saying "It's just stuff" to people who have lost their homes.

One expert said punitive policies on homelessness make unhoused people more invisible, eroding public compassion. “It’s just sweeping human beings under the rug, without regard to their humanity, without regard to what really happens to them.” By @nicolesantacruz.bsky.social

The hospital’s CEO held a staff meeting about Dr. Weiner. “Don’t be surprised if black suits show up,” he said, according to court records. One nurse said, “You walked out of there feeling like, ‘Was I killing people?’” By @davidmcswane.bsky.social

I would love to see a bunch of musical artists and celebrities put on a nationally televised tribute concert for Pres. Jimmy Carter on inauguration day with all proceeds going to Habitat for Humanity.

HBO has declined to renew “Sesame Street” for new episodes. The series that’s been teaching generations of little kids since 1969 now has no studio. Please consider donating to Sesame Workshop to ensure the residents of 123 Sesame Street are still around to teach kids of all needs and backgrounds.

The FBI has increased the reward for information on the CEO Killer from $10,000 to $50,000. Meanwhile, there is no reward for the three NYC men who, on the same day Brian Thompson was killed, murdered a migrant teen and wounded another for not speaking English. I wonder why 🤷🏻‍♀️

Live your life in such a way that “Jury Nullification” doesn’t start trending while your killer is still on the loose

Bueller…The tariff bill? The Hawley-Smoot Tariff Act? Which, anyone? Raised or lowered?... raised tariffs, in an effort to collect more revenue for the federal government. Did it work? Anyone? Anyone know the effects? It did not work, and the United States sank deeper into the Great Depression.

Fellow cis women, are you as tired as I am of being used as an excuse to demonize, terrorize, and abuse trans women? They don’t actually care about us or our safety but they’ll certainly use us to vilify our trans sisters. Not in my name.

I would like to speak up today for the trans community. You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1
