Got something to help with my genealogy family tree for the Lawrence family. I love the post it note page markers #Genealogy

Today marks the 250th anniversary of Leslie's Retreat, the first armed resistance in the American Revolution, which took place a couple blocks from my house. Seems an appropriate time to celebrate the fight against Monarchy. Here's a brief amateur local history buff thread... (1/5)

"CARROTS!" @firstflightpod.bsky.social #CarrotCrew #AllStarTrek #Singularity

The 1923 Oregon legislature was colloquially known as the "Klan legislature" because the majority of members were either Klan members or sympathizers. One bill they passed required that history education be suitably patriotic, outlawing materials that spoke "slightingly" of the founders.

I got this text today….man the scammers are not knowing who they are tagging…I don’t have a car or use any tolls

In 2024, the NLRB filed a complaint against Tesla for interfering in a union drive at their Buffalo, NY assembly plant. Today:

They’re working on criminalizing librarianship. This is just Iowa but there’s others. All because parents don’t want to parent their own children, but they do want to parent everyone else’s kids. #skybrarian #📚🦋 bookriot.com/iowa-rushes-...

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

My dear friend and colleague Robert Charles Anderson passed away yesterday. Bob was the finest scholar in the field of #Genealogy I had ever known. A library of knowledge is now gone, yet preserved in his scholarship with @americanancestors.bsky.social He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

Whitehouse: "Remember Trump-Russia? The Mueller report said there was Trump-Russia. The bipartisan Senate intelligence report said there was Trump-Russia. Repeated trials brought in evidence showing Trump-Russia. There was, is, and forever shall be Trump-Russia."

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

Sir Keir Starmer backs President Zelensky "as Ukraine's democratically elected leader" after Donald Trump claimed he was a "dictator"

Yesterday I downloaded the Duolingo app choose German…think why the hell not, did my first full lesson today and thought I might not be able to speak it but I might be able to read it good later on.🇧🇪

I’m so over this 💩storm…when is the military also going to say enough is enough and start protecting the American people and letting the manbaby and his corrupt government no more and start packing your bags…because I want a sane gov not this!

Sometimes, government decisions are arbitrary. A 65 year old accident the driver has no recollection of. #NewBrunswick #Ontario Just right it off and apologize for the inconvenience. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

1. they aren't "saving" anything just preventing the people from getting what their representatives voted for 2. the whole thing is illegal 3. said people (see 1) think they are being scammed by asylum seekers locked in Panamanian motels so neither 1 nor 2 will matter--they are being 'saved'

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important: Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

The US State Department is forcing all of its employees to cancel subscriptions to any Trump-unfriendly media.

Sen. Patty Murray: "If you receive a directive to violate appropriations laws and withhold funding for workers, what will you do?" Labor secretary nominee Lori Chavez-DeRemer: "I do not believe the president is going to ask me to break the law." Murray: He's... been doing it.

Will their voters ever wake up to the fact that the GOP isn’t out to help them?

Ok so I have to share this crazy dream that I had last week and it’s well normally I would say that could never happen but with manbaby and musk🐃 doing what they are doing I would say that it would so happen….1/

Anyone remember the show Sighings back in the ‘90’s? I have started remembering one episode and how it had a map of the areas of USA that would flood around 2012, and how Florida would be mostly under water. Anyone else thinks this can’t happen too soon now…
