It’s incredible how the right, which is supposed to abhor the victimhood mentality, is led by the most shameless victimhood agent of all time.
He plays the victim every day, in increasingly absurd ways, even barely believable ways.
How any person of character defends that is beyond me.

I wonder what happens to the live animals that are intercepted ... in this case, ant queens. It seems unlikely to be optimal.

The grift never ends. Most corrupt regime in history
it is, among other things, incredibly striking to see that roberts was so solicitous of the burden the clean power plan might put on fossil fuel executives, when, a decade later, he is indifferent to the way trump’s moves have thrown hundreds of thousands of lives into turmoil.
I really want to know what #bugsky has to say about this! We also have some water “features” (toad habitats) and I’d love to control for mosquitoes without hurting other critters
Trump is seeking to set a record for personal corruption in the White House. He wants to steal your money.
A biologist from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife reviewed the video and concluded the animal shown was "clearly a human in a bear suit," according to authorities.

The war toll, by the numbers
More perfect union: BREAKING: The Senate just passed the legislation allowing the devastation of the Boundary Waters. The motion passed 50-49, and now goes to Donald Trump’s desk.
Republicans just handed the Boundary Waters to a foreign corporation.
For the GOP, it’s foreign billionaires first, America last.
Is Bluesky dead??
Niche question for an entomology person. We have a small pond teeming with mosquito larvae, but also diving beetles, caddisflies, etc.
Can I safely use mosquito dunks w/ Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bti)? I've read they target mosquitoes, but I'm skeptical & don't want to harm other species

"Brilliant ... Dope as fuck reporting"
A staffer at a great newspaper sent me this compliment out of the blue, on my @us.theguardian.com story below.
Made my day!

Starting your anti-Pope screed with "Pope Leo is weak on crime" is genuinely hilarious, as if he were the mayor of a Minneapolis or something.
Trump is usually very savvy at picking enemies; I think his targeting of the literal Pope shows that he has lost a step or three.
At the risk of not honoring your request, I'd love to hear more.
“I have an evil in my heart that makes it hard to text back”

Sorry for my ignorance, but cannot tell if this is true or a joke.
If true, incredible.

You think stinging nettle is prickly? Try its cousin, tree nettle, native to New Zealand. Its ferocious trichomes contain toxins that can cause discomfort for weeks, even blurred vision & trouble breathing. 2 ppl have died after contact w/ the plant.

Congratulations to JD Vance & the International Council of Nationalists for helping cost Orban the election & providing a road map for defeating our fascists at home.
If a Dem nominee won’t clean house & punish the monsters administrating concentration camps on American soil, they’re a collaborator
One of the ways news media often fail us is by giving us the microscopic rather than the telescopic view. Everything I mention in this essay is well-documented, but the dots are mostly not connected to make visible this death by a thousand cuts our country is undergoing.
nobody thinks the earth is flat, terrible one to lead with
