"This is Maverick. Permission to fly by the tower."

this is how far they are taking you back. #USPol. Until you are slaves again.

Trump fired a high level government employee who is trans who has worked for five administrations. https://19thnews.org/2025/02/amy-paris-fired-trump-administration/

Continuing my streak since 2016 of never once watching Trump speak about anything live. I'll catch the post mortem in the news tomorrow. Remember, he's not King yet. Power everywhere always comes from the people and we can always choose to revoke it. It'll be hard, but we can do it. I still […]

This week, my husband and I are hosting a small gathering of supporters of GenderNexus in our home to raise funds for this vital resource. It's hard to be #trans in #Indiana these days, and they are on the front lines providing services and advocacy for our people. I'm sad that I can't invite […]

"Have you thanked Mr. Trump for crashing the market? If didn't think you did. So ungrateful." -- JD "Callsign Couch" Vance

"Buckle up, buckaroo! We're crashing the stock market and bankrupting all the family farms. It'll be awesome! I'll blame it on trans kids, like Mr. Putin told me to do." -- Ceremonial figurehead of Muskland, Donald Trump.

Thank Trump! People are now allowed to be "openly Christian." Back in the olden days, I attended a Lutheran university that had to pretend it was Satanic. /s https://www.newsweek.com/disney-christian-character-transgender-story-laurie-win-lose-2037780

The Trump administration is holding a German tourist in indefinite detention at an immigration jail. https://www.kpbs.org/news/border-immigration/2025/02/28/german-tourist-held-indefinitely-in-san-diego-area-immigrant-detention-facility

"Take my picture!"

I'm grateful the squirrels kept knocking the feeders off the tree. If they hadn't, I wouldn't have moved everything closer to a window.

One hour later. The early birds ate almost everything.

Bird party at the table this morning!

They are really going full genocidal in the Trump admin: A Trump State Dept official wants to sterilize people he deems "low-IQ trash." https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/darren-beattie-trump-state-department-b2696297.html

Always look left and right!

Russian State Media Detailed The Day BEFORE The SET UP Trump and Putin Planned on Zelenskyy https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2025/3/2/2307329/-Russian-State-Media-Detailed-The-Day-BEFORE-The-SET-UP-Trump-and-Putin-Planned-on-Zelenskyy Russian Lawmakers on Russian State TV Detailed Trump and […]

It's always nice to eat with someone.

All the birds love spicy suet.

"We propose: Every road a toll road!" - You're welcome, love, the Indiana GOP.

German tourist and her friend wants to make art on a holiday trip in the US, but Trump's goons decide she is probably there for illegal work and throw her in a detention facility, just like MAGA wants it. I hope the German government helps this couple sue the US to kingdom come […]

Another spectacular bird visits this morning.

That "first that came for" poem says you should speak up for certain minorities because eventually you'll be a target too. But you know, you could also speak up simply because it's wrong to target people. Self interest isn't the only reason to oppose oppression.

Sunday brunch is served!

"But we came to the government to fix things. And we’re not done with this work yet." https://18f.org

I worked in an office that made an employee write out everything they had done during the last week. They then laid off 25% of the staff. This was back during Bush's Great Recession of 2009.

But remind me again about how these people are all about "protecting women" https://indianacapitalchronicle.com/2025/02/28/womens-commission-gets-the-ax-in-new-budget/

Make sure to send your list to Felon before Monday!

I'm more than a little concerned what's going to happen when the US stock market opens again next week. But even if there are muted responses from Wall St or from international markets, I think it's safe bet all the uncertainty and chaos created by this administration so far is soon going to […]

Breakfast time!

18F, the federal government’s technology shop, was demolished by Musk’s team shortly after midnight. It was a cost-recoverable org, charging agencies for their expertise, using a consulting model. Its cost to government was negligible, its benefits huge. My team there once saved DoD $500 billion.

I'd say this was an unbelievable own-goal. But, unfortunately, it's believable. #Democracy https://werd.io/2025/gsa-eliminates-18f

"This is my spot now!"

Blue jays are good looking birds.

I always hear the blue jay's hawk sound they make to scare away the other birds before they arrive in the yard.

I put up a skinny 5 ft tall metal post in front of my window 10 ft away from anything from which the squirrels can jump. A minute later, the hungry woodpecker flew in to eat.

Many European governments are in the process of moving most of their INTERNAL communication to US controlled servers, in full view of the US intelligence apparatus. The political situation in the USA is however not going to get any less scary. Any (forced) migrations over summer might no longer […]

The squirrels stole the cage feeder. I can't see it in the yard, so they must have taken it to the woods on the other side of the fence.

The early bird.

Braun is gross.

Why is the "real world" so normal, but the political world so upside down these days?
