A letter to my school's district on Friday at the end of February break: "For Niskayuna" Friends, I will not be at school on Monday. I will not be putting in for personal time or sick days, because the time I intend to take does not fall under either category.

"As we navigate the sheer quantity of hate and unconstitutional extremism found within these orders, it’s essential we not let this blitzkrieg distract or deter us." - Keith Thirion

They want 1939 Germany, Let’s give them 1789 France.

So glad I took the time to read this piece by @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social: "The people wreaking all this destruction are betting on us being self-interested, not idealistic, fearful not rebellious, and I hope we'll prove it was a bad bet." www.meditationsinanemergency.com/this-is-real...

Just putting this out there for anyone who doesn't believe in vaccination...

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

Talk of a "Feb 28 Economic Blackout" is spreading on social media.

Overflow angry crowd for town hall with Glenn Grothman in Oshkosh this morning ... www.wpr.org/news/glenn-g...

Prediction: the Nаzi salute will become common within 2 years. RWers will half-аss it for plausible deniability, memeify the backlash, then start fully doing it "as a joke" "to troll the libs" "for being hysterical enough to think we were doing it in the first place"

Time to get out and walk. Three miles every morning. Gonna be a great day. Then I will be back to kick up some orange dust!

it is shocking the extent to which they openly sneer at morality

General Charles Q. Brown Jr., Faithfully and Honorably served the Constitution and The People of the US for 41-years in the USAF. His last posting was as the 21st Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff. He was unjustly fired by the dangerously unqualified SECDEF. I proudly stand with Gen. Brown.

Very smart move!

⚡️EU preparing military aid package for Kyiv worth $20.9 billion, Bloomberg reports. The additional military support would supply Kyiv with air defense systems, artillery ammunition, long-range missiles, and drones.

Fellow veterans, former coworkers, former clients, my kid's best friend's dad, childhood friends, the girl that sat next to me during driver's ed...all federal employees - dedicated civil servants - all lost their jobs over the past 10 days at the whim of the richest man in the world.

@altnps.bsky.social Thank you for sharing updates, as always. Thankful some of this is positive news, for now.

How has it been 3 years ago already since you crossed a bridge that I can't follow? I could use your wisdom and assurance these days. This is my favorite photo of you. I miss you so much, but I'm also glad you didn't live to see the rise of autocracy in the country. I love you, Gram. 1933-2021. 🖤

When Rupert Murdoch’s rags turn on you …

Another form of complacency: calling oneself a "centrist" if one supports democracy, the US Constitution, the rule of law. That's the liberal, progressive, Democratic, left position. It's not the midpoint of who knows what and right wing, anti-democracy, criminal-loving conservatism, Republicanism.

While the governor of Oklahoma is on right-wing media every day glazing DOGE, domestic violence homicides in his state have hit a record high. Between all the pronoun-bashing and diversity-slashing Kevin Stitt does on TV, when does he have any time to address this crisis?

Concerning 🫣 I’m gonna take a beat before I fly again.

Happy #FeatheredFriday friends...Got a whale of tale to tell you about this beautiful Horned Grebe, but you'll have to read in ALT. #birds #ohbirding #wildlife 🪶🦉 #nature #photography

Molly loves breakfast with dad. Please note that for 12 years she refused to touch banana and would get angry if it was offered. Suddenly she tolerates it now that her new dad eats it.

We can agree that it's shameful if it comes to fruition. I dont think there is any chance it does. I don't understand why people don't believe Zelensky is as good a negotiator as Mexico or Canada. He knows you give Trump the PR win and move on

That sounds like a plan that I can get on board with! 🤭😅🤣

Have looked at this picture 50 times and *just* spotted the cute little nugget dusted in pollen hiding within. 🤭🐝 #pollinators #bees #gardening 🌱
