We have a madman in the White House who is actively trying to trigger total war. If Jeffries, Schumer, or any other Democratic leaders try to justify this, shrug indifferently, or write a strongly-worded letter and call it a day, they need to step down or be aggressively primaried.

it’s even more demoralizing when the history you’re repeating is history you were around for the first time

Dress it up in progressive language but you're cheating yourself by not doing the work. This is the worst thing about AI: millions of students refusing to learn, taking zero interest in the world around them, empty in mind and heart. Your punishment is the person you will become.

Billionaires are consolidating around Cuomo because they know he will preserve the broken status quo. New Yorkers are rallying behind our campaign because they're ready for change. In two weeks, we will shock the political establishment and win a city we can all afford.

Cannot stress enough that this is a pitiful action by a weak, scared, pathetic group of insecure, wannabe authoritarians, and they should be mocked until the end of time for wanting to bring in the military over some people protesting them at a Home Depot.

I'm still marveling at the depth of Newsom's self-inflicted wound(s).

THIS is the version of the ‘farmer who’s about to lose his farm’ testimonial that you need to see. Here’s the thing—I don’t care if they admit they were wrong. We already know they were. But they do need to admit they were lied to—by Donald Trump. Call him out by name!

somebody asked me the other week why business leaders are falling over themselves to pledge fealty when it’s so obviously self-defeating and short-sighted, and I think the answer is “people are stupid”

This is the difference between Trump 1 and Trump 2. First time around, all his cronies were named stuff like Joey Macaroni and wanted to commit tax fraud and go on Dancing With The Stars. This time, they have names like John Hitlerfuhrer and have spent the last 15 years blogging about phrenology.

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

Expired stalk of a mojave yucca in joshua tree. Trying to go on hikes and walks when the sun is low in the morning or evening, really gives a beautiful depth to what you may see. #joshuatree #plants #succulents #photography

People believe all kinds of bullshit conspiracies but the actual conspiracy to cook the planet for profit is somehow not getting as much traction as some weird shit about cyanide in fruit or seed oils or whatever.

Chukars are magnificently plump birds with a ridiculous chirp #birds #photography #wildlife #joshuatree

I was in joshua tree yesterday and I was hoping to see quail, which i consider God's greatest creation, but instead i came across these chukars which have similar habits of being extremely skiddish and wobble off while chirping a ridiculous chirp, and being very plump with a robbers eye mask. #birds

Happy 12th birthday to our goblin pug, forever grateful my fiance spotted him at the north LA shelter. He's always been full of love and cuddles, and the best symbol of perserverance as he'll never pass up an opportunity for dropped food wherever someone may be handling food. #dogs #pugs #pets

Just a shot from my cellphone, but I was very excited for my first time seeing a bald eagle in the wild today while visiting family in Idaho. Hoping the weather clears up so I can shoot at a fast shutter speed and capture them in flight before we head back to SoCal! #birds

This is the photo that got me to really love bird photography.I was sitting at the beach after walking through a garden which is why i had my 105mm lens. A ton of seagulls were circling around so I snapped away. Really satisfying to capture them when all the elements line up for a millisecond #birds
