Turtles and tortoises can feel their shells and sometimes get itchy. At the Philly Zoo, a new shell scratcher helps them get the relief they need.

I think this might be the latest in the season I've seen #northernlights here in #iceland. Having excellent weather now in Reykjavík.

Taken this morning in the city after midnight. Not the best photo, it was just a quick snap from my balcony; Twas not prepared for #aurora! #midnightsun is coming...

This Isn't Trading. It's Theft from Your Retirement. Someone keeps making perfectly-timed bets right before the President speaks. The victims are your pension, your 401(k), and the country I took an oath to defend.

Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them.

Cartoon by Mike Thomson. Tucker Carlson sits behind a desk holding a paper that says "Replacement Theory" saying, "Immigrants must not replace the original culture and values of this great land." An indigenous woman in traditional hairstyle and jewelry stands behind him, arms crossed, saying, "I'll help you pack."

A blueprint depicting the plan to covert a warehouse in Social Circle, GA into a concentration camp. Fuck ICE.

Per Anthony La Mesa (@ajlamesa) on X:

"This is the floor plan for the conversion of a warehouse into an ICE detention facility in Social Circle, Georgia.

Disturbing."

ICE Detention Facility = Concentration Camp.

FUCK ICE.🖕

Post on X from Krystal Ball reacting to Schumer’s usual nonsense: “This is a disgusting and cowardly statement handwringing about process and the need for a briefing. No you idiot. This war is a horror and a disaster and must be directly opposed. Any Democrat who can’t say that needs to resign and ESPECIALLY the ones in leadership.”

This dig at Xrump should drive him batty(er). 😅

2 dead, 5 hurt after planned fight leads to mass shooting at Winston-Salem park Two people have been confirmed dead after a mass shooting at Leinbach Park in Winston-Salem, the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation announced.

Mass shooting in Winston Salem NC kills 2 kids and 8 injured Schools nearby all went on lockdown all day! Not even a blip on the radar really. 😔🤷🏻‍♀️ #NC #NCpol wlos.com/news/local/m...

Sen. Jack Reed to Warsh as he dodges questions about divesting his assets: "Excuse me. I must commend you on the way you can circularly go around questions and not answer them. It's a skill. Unfortunately it's not a good skill for the chairman of the Fed."

Al Gore: Trump administration is the most corrupt in history The former vice president rebukes Trump’s attack on Iran and condemns the administration’s dismantling of climate regulations.

“This is the most corrupt administration not only in American history, but more corrupt than I could ever have imagined a president would be able to get away with to the extent that he has."

Gray whales are starving. Some have died off Oregon Coast Gray whales aren't getting enough to eat to survive their long migration toward Alaska.

Sorry to post this for those who abhor seeing this kind of news about wildlife. But while we are collectively agonizing over the state of our nation, the state of our planet is probably the more urgent news.

He only cared about ONE thing...how it looked on TV. Enough has been said regarding the impossible healing job...not enough said about the depravity it takes to kill your followers to make good television.

If we get 50% of those eligible to vote out to the polls, that alone would create a logjam as it appears there are long lines when only 25% of voters go vote.

Hungary brought out 79% of the vote. Young people.
If only America could be this passionate about government.

Happy 89th Birthday George Takei!

George Takei, born on April 20, 1937, in Los Angeles, California, is an actor, activist, and social media phenomenon who has lived one of the most remarkable lives in American entertainment.

As a child, Takei and his family were forcibly relocated to Japanese...

Dismantling Voice of America was one of the most devastating things I’ve witnessed. VOA wasn’t propaganda, it was proof that free press could criticize its own leaders and still survive. And now we’re throwing away one of our greatest tools of freedom.

H.R. 1897 is moving fast in the House and could hit the floor for a full vote as soon as tomorrow. This bill would gut the Endangered Species Act forcing economic impact considerations into listing decisions, limiting your ability to challenge bad science in court,

Instead of telling women to “Be safe”, how about we normalise telling men to “Not rape or kill anyone” when they go out?? 🤷🏼‍♀️

ICE detained the wife of an active-duty U.S. Army Sgt. First Class after she showed up for an immigration appointment in 📍 El Paso—then still threatened removal despite legal protections.

Her husband (27 years active duty) said it plainly: ICE is out of control.

A mass shooting that took the lives of eight children should stop this country in its tracks. Instead, the Shreveport tragedy disappeared from the headlines in a day. We cannot allow this level of violence to fade into background noise. Ending America’s gun‑violence epidemic is a moral oblligation.
