I like getting to see the solar panel production graphs.

It's terrible out here.

Sending a crumb of strength 🥯 and bagels.

Q: “What’s the difference between Donald Trump and trans people?”

A: “There are trans people courageous enough to serve in our military.”

Stormwater Management - repost it every time

It's been a rough week. Back in the phones and trying to offer small glimmers of hope to people that have little.

And with things as they are, I don't have a lot of belief the System cares to support those in need *at all*.

But for their sake I pretend to believe.
Maybe my sake too.

Blessing to sit outside in the cool of night, faint town sounds and not a single mosquito bite.
If I tried at old house, random yelling, dog yapping in my ear, 1,700 mosquitoes coz trash pile water nooks... which is why I stopped going outside at all towards the end.
Neuhaus returns the joy. Yay

Pritzker: It’s time for us to be done with optimism about their motives. Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research… Autistic kids and adults who are loving contributors to our society don’t deserve to be stigmatized by a weird nepo baby who once stashed a dead bear in his car. Our military service members don’t deserve to be told by a washed-up Fox TV commentator, who drank too much before being appointed Secretary of Defense, that they can’t serve their country simply because they are Black, gay, or a woman.

Dear god let this man cook.

There's beauty in the world still.
But the ugliness feels damn heavy.

RFK Jr blames diet, lifestyle & vaccines for chronic illness.

Dr Oz says it’s a “patriotic duty” to lead a healthy life & be fit enough to serve in the military.

Neither of them are pushing for Universal Healthcare, basic income, an end to food deserts & inequality, clean water etc.

It’s eugenics

Dear #GOP

You are running out of time to decide if you take him down or he is the concrete shoes that drown you.

Thanks,
Sane America

But..."think of the children!" ...oh, they are. Just...in gross ways.

Suet for my birb frens

Took this photo on Perth Avenue this morning. They aren’t wrong.

This is a political cartoon illustrating the escalating threats of climate change. The image features three massive waves approaching a small figure sitting on a beach. The waves are labeled “Heat Wave,” “Climate Change,” and “Global Extinction”, with each wave increasing in size and intensity. The small figure, depicted as Uncle Sam—a personification of the United States—sits calmly on the sand, surrounded by beach toys. He is wearing a red, white, and blue hat and appears unconcerned by the impending disaster. A speech bubble next to him reads: “If I close my eyes, maybe it will just go away.” The cartoon uses satire to criticize the inaction and denial of climate change, suggesting that ignoring the problem will not stop its catastrophic consequences. The waves symbolize the growing severity of environmental crises, with the largest wave representing a potential global extinction event.

Hundreds fired from the US climate agency under Trump as the economy declines. Silencing science while Americans struggle—yet another hallmark of his disastrous leadership.

While some is staff, some is redundant offices, the chaos & delays happening for the folks who remain is already an issue. Just wait until CDRs are yearly , which is a review where they can decide one no longer meets definition of disability.

My lead attys are nervous for the first time ever.

Information was shared illegally. A career employee at the Social Security Administration provided unauthorized access to data to Elon Musk’s staffers. This employee, Leland Dudek, a data analyst, was recently promoted to acting commissioner by Trump.

Making chicken & dumplings. It's bulk meal making time. Aiming to make enough to share.

Feeding folks yummy food cooked with Love is how I'm Resisting today.

Donald Is Making Airplanes Crash Again The numbers are damning.

For 16 years, U.S. aviation had a perfect record—ZERO major commercial plane crashes.

Then Trump returned and in just 29 days the USA has had seven crashes, 15 aviation disasters, and 85 dead, on pace for this over 1,000 dead this year via plane crash.

Very light coverage of snow through the porch rails.

Maybe not the most elegant of views, but we worked damn hard for our little nugget of peace & Home.
Everything feels in danger at a moment's notice.
But for this second, I'm cozy, safe, and watching snow blanket the yard.

I was raised better. ....and full of dysfunction, but at least there was Humanity.

I lived in Germany and have missed it ever since leaving 37 years ago. America feels as unsafe as Germany was 80 years ago.

Literally what the fuck.
#sadbadpoetry

I am bottled up with Thoughts.

It's starting to feel like Sad, Bad, Poetry Time.

("Bad" just meaning no pressure to be "the most eloquent piece of prose ever writ")

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:

-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.

-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

The"clear & present danger" is coming from inside the house!

I always repost stuff like this because I see too often people say, "If things were that bad, people would be in the streets!"
Here you go. People in the streets.

In Germany, a renewed demonstration of the people’s strength against the far-right, allegedly supported by Elon. Let it be reiterated: true power lies with the determined people, and they shall prevail.

Started anxiety meds as I cannot raw dog my way through Drumpf 2.0. I have a lot of terrible, horrible things to say about him & his ilk, but I will forever hold a crumb of personal hate that HE is the impetus for me being overwhelmed by anxiety bees.
