Don't be distracted. Our world is at war. "There is a sickness in the minds of men. "

What I'm watching... strains of"Morning has Broken" playing in my head.

Alina Habbard posted: NOTHING CAN STOP THIS MAN FROM FIGHTING FOR HIS COUNTRY. David Simon had a succinct 2-word response: “Bone spurs.”

I saw a baby bear in the road, killed by traffic while running from wild fires caused by developers wanting more and more and more and a city? county? state? county? granting permission, while a person who is supposed to care for our children laughs and a party applauds.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

For the love of God, stop him

One of Norway's largest fuel companies just announced that they will no longer refuel US Navy vessels after Trump’s treatment of Zelenskyy. “It made us sick... We encourage all Norwegians and Europeans to follow our example.”

Wow. 😳

First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year. “'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'" Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/u...

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

Dear Mr. Zelensky, many Americans did not vote for him and are disgusted by the way you are being treated. He's a mean-natured bully who spends his time with other bullies, thinking they will like him. What he doesn't realize is that he is only being used. We're sorry. We all deserve better.

Don’t buy today. Give the greedheads a taste of their own medicine.

Of the 4000 researchers at NIH, only 20% are tenured. They’re going to fire all the rest as their contracts come up for renewal, absolutely decimating research at the NIH. This is catastrophic, not just for Americans, but for the whole world. www.science.org/content/arti...

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY! If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK! Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore. JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺 #24HourEconomicBlackout

Sen. Tammy Duckworth with receipts!

More than 130 people in west Texas and New Mexico have been sickened by measles. The outbreak started in a county with a vaccination rate around 80%.

Not wolves, but the Red Wolf + Mexican gray wolf recovery programs could certainly be next... The head of FWS' black-footed ferret recovery program was fired earlier this month, along w/ 2 employees who worked at a captive breeding facility. Funding has been frozen too.

You first.

This is the way.

This is how the Terran empire began in fact.

For the US to side with Russia and North Korea to oppose a UN resolution condemning the illegal invasion of Ukraine defies all common sense and adds insult to the countless injuries suffered by the brave Ukrainian people. edition.cnn.com/2025/02/24/p...

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

This hits hard.

BREAKING: The USDA has confirmed five additional dairy herds in California have tested positive for the virus, raising the total to 732. Currently, 74% of the state's dairy herds are infected with H5N1.

Wise man…

WOOHOO! A new bat coronavirus that has the capacity to spread to humans, similar to the one that caused the COVID-19 pandemic, has been discovered….I’m sure everything will be perfectly fine 😬 www.newsweek.com/new-coronavi...

#jackwhite come to Coastal Carolina University!

Tell 'em AOC!!!

We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.” Who needs a gallon of ketchup?

He’s right again.

Vaccine choice in schools? Okay. We'll wait for the thousands of lawsuits filed by parents when their children die. Natural selection is one thing, but some people won't see that natural selection allows the scientists who discover the freaking vaccines! It's ludicrous.

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

I love this response. Sad it had to happen, but at least we now know of at least two sympathizers.
