It has been bothering me to hear people say those AHs temporarily in power are “decimating” things. This language is not nearly strong enough. It literally means to reduce by 10% though if people use it incorrectly for long enough, that becomes accepted usage. The word we need to use is ANNIHILATE.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

It’s dangerous to be a woman of childbearing age in Texas.

Waddaweek. I thought it was Humpday and yay, it’s already Friday Eve. I wish the time between now and the end of Project 25 would go by as quickly. Begone foul dwimmerlaiks.

Why do they bother? Because some people fall for this. Don’t be easy prey. Be easy blocker.

Made In Canada 🇨🇦 - How a Canadian is born. #cdnpoli #peipoli

My grandfather was a veteran, a WWII Navy Chief Petty Officer. I'll never forget the patriotism I felt when I told him about my enlistment. He was so proud of me that he cried. He's been gone for 30 years. He'd be crying now for a different reason. It makes me sick.

Elon—the richest man on Earth—is gutting the world’s largest provider of food aid. He could end world hunger single-handedly and still be the richest man alive. But he won’t. Instead, he spent 40 million on Super Bowl ads attacking USAID! Stand with USAID: share this counter-ad…

Bison should be allowed to roam free and cattle should be restricted to private land. All abandoned barbed wire should be removed from public land. The money today being wasted on public lands grazing should go into building wildlife overpasses and installing wildlife safe guide fencing.

Unbelievable.

Exciting news! We’re thrilled to announce that tapir Yuna gave birth to a rare and endangered Malayan tapir calf Sunday night. The newborn, covered in distinctive white spots and stripes resembling a fuzzy walking watermelon, is only the second tapir born in our 120-year history.

Oh she’s having fun with this.

Fellow veterans: the VA is apparently sending out letters asking "minorities who identify as LGBTQ+" to sign up for and participate in some type of research project. Under this administration, please don't fucking do that.

How I feel about this administration: It’s like growing up with adults you love who regularly fight and scream and curse each other and beat each other up. It sucks the joy out of you but you can find good in the interstices and you can do whatever good you can while taking care of yourself as well.
