If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? The GOP’s censorship is ensuring there’s no data/terminology to describe phenomena in an attempt to render them non-existent or, at least, difficult to chronicle. 1/2

I can do a forward facing split. I CANNOT do one while steadily balancing another super strong person above my head with just my arms. JESUS she is strong.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Special election on April 1st in FL (CD1) if you are a Floridian get out and vote for Gay Valimont. She is tje leader you need FL. #LetsDoThis en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_Fl...

Before it's taken offline, I want you to know about the NASA website where you can learn about the stratospheric ozone hole and check on how it's doing. It has cool movies like this one, showing the growth of the ozone hole during the Austral spring last year. ozonewatch.gsfc.nasa.gov/SH.html

If you post or repost gAI imagery, I will unfollow you. It is anti-human anti-environment and pro-oligarchy. We need to do far better.

in the trump administration, “merit” is pronounced “white” like how strom thrumond said it.

What if Sherlock Holmes were a really big man; really, really antisocial; and really, really, really hated bullies?”

Just Dunning-Kreugering harder than a college frosh at a high school house party over winter break. Give any ultra-rich person enough time and they’ll disprove the myth that they deserve their largesse because they’re smart or good. Every single one of these people is a policy failure.

This is about to be “Please Mr. Postman,” by the Marvelettes.

It’s almost like for profit healthcare is a lot less efficient

Hegseth needs yes-men who will agree to use force against American civilians and will go along with a declaration of martial law

Beyond betrayal.

The Department of Homeland Security can now spy on you based solely on your “gender identity or sexual orientation.” I’m watching every fucking libertarian or “small c conservative” to judge how full of shit they are news.bgov.com/bloomberg-go...

okay, it’s time for me to finally weigh in: it’s probably a bad sign that guys are just doing sieg heils in public again

🌊 Dear NSF and NOAA colleagues, Your work matters. Many of you have sacrificed personal gain and scientific freedoms to serve the public good. Thank you! Your mission protects lives and protects nature, including the most vulnerable people and places suffering the fall out of anthropogenic change.

If we can't sleep peacefully, they don't get to sleep peacefully. Don't call your republican reps because you think you can convince them. Call them because fuck them, they don't get a free pass on this shit.

Black people have been talking about this for damn near a decade

Not really sure what part of democracy uses a chain saw. I think the part where you dismantle it? Anyway.

gravedigger of american democracy. a more malign influence than john c calhoun.

You know what to do. Your electeds need to hear from you. (202) 224-3121, @5calls.org, or @resist.bot

for the love of God. fucking honestly. “controversial salute.” it’s a nazi stiff arm salute. literally everybody knows this. “controversial” is a chickenshit word generally (what purpose does its use serve? hint: an editorial, not journalistic one) but when we’re talking about public nazi shit gah

I have no idea when it will surface, but erotic eco horror thing that I was worried might be TOO DESPERATE and TOO DARK and TOO HORNY was for this. Pretty sure that was the brief but I am so curious what people will make of this story.

Jasmine Crockett is shredding this solo. But it’s past time for the rhythm section to enter this song already.

The way that US businesses are acting like pussies about all this Trump admin stuff is something. Like… y’all probably spend billions of dollars on lobbyists and swaying candidates and elections. All of a sudden, cat’s got your tongue? 🧵 (1)
