@repschneider.bsky.social please address this on tomorrow night’s telephone town hall.

This is outrageous and unamerican. It certainly sounds illegal to me, though I need more details on that front. This guy is a green card holder and married to an American citizen. www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news...

And now a second automatic in the line up. Seiko SNK375.

Added the first automatic watch to my small but growing collection. A 1977 Timex Viscount.

See how the world views us now.

Everyday a new bottom and a fresh hell.

French Senator Claude Malhuret: "Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

This is a wildly dangerous sign — the idea that there are only five SCOTUS votes for paying congressionally mandated invoices for work *already* done!? This should be as basic a test of Article I as you can get. And that does not bode well for decisions to come.

Fuck everyone who ever voted for, apologized for, or supported this guy in any way.

Here’s what you do, don’t watch. Don’t give him the attention he craves or the space to spread lies. Fuck him.

Trudeau: "I want to speak first directly to the American people. We don't want this. We want to work with you as a friend and ally. We don't want to see you hurt either. But your government has chosen to do this to you. As of this morning, markets are down and inflation is set to rise dramatically."

The Trump administration and all those who support / enable it are child murdering ghouls.

NEW: The axing of some 10,000 programs has consigned untold numbers of children and refugees to death, officials say. Documents and interviews reveal that the State Department appears to have made the cuts without the careful review it described in court. By Brett Murphy and @annamaria.bsky.social

No, this is the most ashamed you've felt as an American *so far*.

the Midwestern power of the sentence "Illinois stands with Ukraine" just spawned a Portillo's in my living room

Hello darkness my old friend....

Trump and Vance turn into whiny little bitches the moment they encounter someone who has integrity and won't put up with their bullshit.

“People will die, but we will never know, because even the programs to count the dead are cut.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/27/h...

Rubio terminated 5800 USAID contracts – more than 90% of its foreign aid programs – in defiance of the courts. Here’s a list of just some of the lifesaving awards that were terminated. Nearly all were Congressionally mandated. They’ve saved millions of lives. 🧵

Email your representatives now. The freezing of these funds will kill people, lots of them.

I have written a short statement responding to mass firings today of #NOAA / National Weather Service (#NWS) staff (which were concentrated among recent hires as well as highly experienced staff who had recently been promoted). Please see below screenshot & below for full text.

BREAKING: The mass firing of upwards of 1,800 workers at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, including top climate scientists and weather forecasters, has begun. The firings reportedly include workers at the National Weather Service.

Department Of Education Sternly Announces It Is Counting To 3

RIP

Easy to get overwhelmed these days. Tinkering helps. Got these watches back up and running today.

What the actual fuck.

Getting cranky about lights being left on is peak dad behavior.

The Judiciary doesn’t have any law enforcement ability you say? I’ve got an idea.

Just listened in to a bit of telephone town hall with my congressman. Didn’t have a very good answer on what congress will do if Trump just decides court rulings don’t apply anymore. Friends, this is not looking good.

“We’re all here because of him” really is something all of us can say w/r/t Rupert Murdoch.

Anybody else having the issue of videos not playing? @bsky.app

This is the hardest I’ve laughed in a long time.

With my 7 year old at one those ultimate ninja gym places. Staff is mostly older highschool / early college age. Blasting 90’s rock music. Smashing Pumpkins, STP, Nirvana, etc. Feeling a little old.

NBC Producers Deny Using AI In New Series ‘Detective Fireman Lawyer Chicago Los Angeles Show’ theonion.com/nbc-pro...

REP. @maxwellfrost.bsky.social says billionaires like Elon Musk want Americans to blame immigrants and trans people etc. for their economic struggles when their insatiable greed is behind the Gilded Age levels of inequality 🎯 🇺🇸 💰

Ayanna Pressley: "Elon Musk is a Nazi nepo baby."

Emailed my Senators and Congressman about Musk’s shenanigans at the Treasury and USAID. Not much but it’s what us little people can do. You should do the same.

A Curmudgeon’s Hot Art Take: I believe a piece of art speaks a for itself. No work should require a long winded treatise to make it interesting. Boring art with a good story is still boring art.

It all feels a little bit skewed, a little bit tenuous right now, yes? Don’t let the fascists win, don’t let AI scrape and demean art. Keep the faith, carry the flame. Keep being a human, keep making art. #photography
