Good , simple flyer to counter the lies about vaccines and autism.

Dahlia of the day: Muchacha A beautiful raspberry informal decorative dahlia. I love pairing this bloom with Cornel Bronze ball dahlias and Sandia Brocade anemones, Muchachas jewel tone pops beautifully next to them. #dahlias #flowerfeed #bloomscrolling #flowerreport #michiganflowers

I made the best curry rub chicken and here is the recipe. Mix everything together. Rub it on some chicken thighs with your hands. Bake it at 400 degrees until internal temperature is 180 or whatever. Rejoice

Please, science Bluesky. I am begging. I need to know the most ridiculous looking species. Please tell me what the weirdest little weirdos on the planet are. Give me your weirdest animal facts. My feeble grip on sanity is dependent on you.

oh my god. this absolutely floored me. my jaw was on the floor from about thirty seconds in. I laughed, I was in tears, I don't know what to tell you. this is what art is fucking FOR (now someone vid this)

the annoying bit for me is that I've muted & blocked mention of his (and his compatriots') name(s), but that doesn't block the memes & the photos so I still get a heavy & very unhealthy dose / barrage of info about him/them that I *DO NOT WANT*

Los Angeles is opening a giant solar and battery plant in the high desert. It will produce 7% of the city's power, for a record low price. I took a helicopter from City Hall for a tour. My @latimes.com story on L.A.'s rapid progress toward 100% clean energy: www.latimes.com/environment/...

Democracy in Action! 2 citizens led initiatives have qualified for the ballot.Way to go Huntington Beach!

what I wouldn't do to a quart of ice cream right now, ISTG.

Jesus shared some of the work of his coworkers in a poinsettia nursery in Gilroy CA. Each plant is carefully watered and fed until they are wrapped in festive foil and placed in homes around the country during the holiday season. #WeFeedYou

Did you run???

ATTENTION Believe it or not, there are STILL Congressional races Where Democrats need help curing ballots The margin in both these races are both about 300 votes! Every Democrat in the House means the GOP majority is that much smaller Please-help if you can Bit.ly/Cureballots

Greetings new followers! You may know me from the Bad Place, writing about authoritarianism in The Atlantic, for my (correct) views on bear arms from “Cunk on Earth,” or my books Corruptible and Fluke. Glad to have you here and not on Musk’s disinformation machine.

YAY!! A Bufflehead!!! Thank you 🙂🙂

It’s ok to just feel your feelings post-election— at least for a while But when you are ready, here are 10 steps to protect US democracy from our Democracy Playbook A thread👇 www.brookings.edu/articles/dem...

I’ll have you know I downloaded the full Temu app and gave them my email and watched a bunch of ads all so I could get this photo of a highland cow shirt to share with all of you

Okay, friends. I know we're still reeling, but if you're in or near CA-45, here are sign ups for in person ballot curing canvassing to help Derek Tran beat Michelle Steele. Winning this seat could help the Ds control the House, which would be HUGE.

Another House seat where I would like very much to see a D pickup. CA-45, Tran (D) vs Steele (R) www.cnn.com/election/202...

How I spent my Saturday morning.

A big one

The Las Vegas Sun endorses Kamala Harris and Tim Walz to lead the nation. “The contrast could not be more stark: Harris and Walz love this country, its people and its freedom, Trump and Vance only want to own it.” lasvegassun.com/news/2024/oc...

Hahahah!

Might be a good idea for the Biden administration to do a (very rare) prime time Oval Office address to demand that Congress return to fund FEMA. Just saying.

Does anyone know of any other examples of where a video synchs perfectly to other audio, like the This Is America video clip set to Call Me Maybe?
