My heart hurts for what's going on in the United States, and what that will do to the world.

Good night everybody!

I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

Collaborators with the fascists.

Actively blocking accounts that appear to be mostly sports nonsense. Life is too short to have to wade through that crap.

Clever, clever folk doing clever, clever things. #Malaria

Cereal is named for a Roman goddess. Ceres was the Roman goddess of corn and harvests. Ceres is *also* the name of the largest asteroid in the asteroid belt. Kid tested, NASA approved.

In the 1980s, when the Social Security Administration made much smaller cuts than what’s on the table now, 80,000 eligible Americans failed to receive their benefits. These new cuts could result in MILLIONS of Americans being cheated out of the money they earned. www.cnbc.com/2025/03/12/s...

Understand this: Donald Trump and co-president Elon Musk are shutting down the federal government, piece by piece, including: 1. Shutting down the agency that stops banks and payday lenders from cheating working people. 2. Shutting down children’s cancer research. 🧵

Every social media site should tailor your experience properly by offering a button in the settings that you can toggle between I CARE ABOUT SPORTS and NO THANKS I'M GOOD

They want to keep it quiet, so you know what to do.

Man, I need a way to filter out sports related posts when the poster doesn't use any particular tags or other specifically sports words! Use your tags, people! #Hashtags

honestly wild to me that, at this late date, any ostensibly informed person would insist that we could ignore trump’s words as just bluster

Worth repeating. Russia invaded Ukraine. #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦

Genie: What is your final wish? Boy: I wish I were you. Genue: weurd but alrught.

I'd go the other way - nothing wrong with Sol and Luna!

The hypocrisy is off the charts.

Your Friday Philosophy: "Nothing is more surprising than the easiness with which the many are governed by the few." | David Hume, Edinburgh, 1711 -1776:

I have talked to veterans all over the country. They’re not happy that, when the VA is already understaffed, Musk wants to dismember the VA by laying off 83,000 employees. A commitment has been made to those who put their lives on the line to defend us. We must not betray them.

In Minnesota, we value the people who care for our veterans, even if DOGE doesn’t. If Trump fired you, come work for the State of Minnesota and help take care of our vets.

This Sunday, the whole country needs to spring forward from 1939.

Sign of the day…

If a billionaire tries to tell you that it won’t cost the government any money to give them a big tax break, don’t believe them.

Cats kill 10,000 times as many birds as wind turbines do.

They’re cutting Medicaid

Fair.

Ice doesn't cool your water, the water heats up your ice. Energy always transfers from the hotter object to the colder object.

Suggestion and do with it what you will: If you have canceled subscriptions to the Post or other once-reliable major papers, and you are still able to do this, donate to @apnews.com. They are a non-profit entity that used to survive based on syndication of their work, but no longer can.

Given that Bezos just did a full takeover of @washingtonpost.com and now it can only report that America and money are great--today is a great day to cancel if you have it, you check to make sure you aren't paying for a forgotten subscription.
