What you're seeing are wet microbursts—intense downdrafts from thunderstorms that slam rain into the ground, creating those stunning lobes. Like a reverse explosion from the sky. Captured in Perth, #Australia

Trump: “Home-growns are next—you gotta build about five more places. It’s not big enough.” If Trump and Rubio get away with ignoring the SCOTUS and allowing Bukele to kidnap Kilmar Abrego Garcia, U.S. citizens will be next. This is a five-alarm fire for the constitutional rights of all in the U.S.

I bet they weren’t blonde hair blue eyed kids. I’m also reasonably sure they didn’t have a criminal record or posed to threat to national security. Time to start calling what it is. #cleansing #deportation #camps www.dailynews.com/2025/04/10/t...

Hmmm, lets think about this. Who else led protests in history? Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Malcom X, Susan B Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Nelson Mandela, The founding Fathers of the USA (Boston Tea Party) The Patrons of the Stonewall Inn. (More) #Government #ByThePeople

I keep thinking every time I get an email asking me to give money to the Democrats. Why would I? What did you do last time? How is my money helping you? It’s certainly not helping me for you to have my money as evidenced by my stocks and my terror at what may beyond the horizon for us. #politics

This system was changed in 1883. Even way back then people figured out it was a bad way to run an effective government. We however after 150 years have decided to go backwards. #government #spoilsSystem www.cbsnews.com/news/preside...

We fight to give hope — a reminder that there are still those within the government standing up for what’s right. Since Saturday, we’ve faced relentless attacks. We know there will be consequences for our actions, but we will not back down.

They will cancel cancer research to save money. They will defund Alzhimer's research. They will stop education funding. But they won't ever tax the 1% fairly.

Wood duck in a pine tree. I’ve never seen a male wood duck from this angle before except when in flight. It’s interesting how intricate and colorful are the feathers until you get below the waterline. Then it’s just plain white. #birds #🪶

Did you hear the President's claim about 120-year-olds receiving SSA benefits? False. It was debunked months ago, but is still being used to distract us from real issues. Don't fall for the noise—here's the truth: https://www.wethebuilders.org/posts/misinformation-machine #altUSDS #FactCheck

To ‘fleece’ someone means to take something, usually money, from that person in a dishonest way. The noun ‘fleece’ refers to the wool that covers a sheep. When you are fleeced, you are stripped of something much in the way that fleece is shorn from a sheep.

We tried mass tariffs in 1828, and it crashed the economy. We tried again in 1930, and it crashed the economy. Third time’s the charm, I guess.

Yet another thing I have absolutely no use for! It was a pattern for a baby blanket, well this is half of it, and I wanted to see how it would work before I ordered baby yarn. Maybe a good round table doily if rainbow cotton yarn is your aesthetic #crochet

The majority of takes on the male loneliness epidemic almost get to the real cause, but pretty much all of them stop with "women have gotten too picky," when they need to continue and ask, "What are women being 'picky' about? And are those expectations actually unreasonable?"
