Sunrise on Yellowstone Lake

Whelp, this graffiti is new since last week.

Gazillions of synchronous lightning bugs, all flashing at the same time. I remember filling jars full while waiting for 4th of July fireworks as a kid. Today my kids get excited when they see a handful, and we don't catch them.

Yinz need a swamp cooler. Easy to DIY. Not as cool as AC, but much better than just a fan.

#TIL that the Tamarack tree is properly called "Larch" in English. Tamarack comes from an Abenaki wood describing snowshoes, traditionally made from this wood.

This year's Maypole was a little unbalanced, but still standing strong.

Funny story, they only discovered this deposit because people had sued over wells contaminated by fracking and high lithium levels appeared in the tested samples. "Your water is contaminated with what now? Gold you say?"

We're going to be preparing a Maypole for the dance on Saturday and I am unreasonably excited about it. 😁

A wealthy development in Deep Creek, western Maryland, is mentioned in the Epstein files.

This is genius. I'm gonna start handing these out with mutual aid flyers.

I gotta up my Island game.

JFC. I have sat in this very room listening to people discuss policy, and how best to improve the lives of Kenyan people. The American diplomats came, ate a fancy dinner, and then just left three hundred thousand people on the opposite side of the country to starve to death.

I was given a No Blood for Oil button in 2003. In my adult lifetime, I don't think a single year has gone by where it lost its immediate and pressing relevance.

This is the sketch?? The new throne room bigger than the White House itself? Do we share even an idea of America in common with these people?

Doug Collins spewing bullshit from the official VA Bluesky account. Some are NOT new clinics. Others were opened after closing or reducing services at existing facilities. What a strategy! Close 3 hospitals and then get people excited about the new clinic!

In case you didn't know, virtually all handcuffs can be opened with the same universal key, which you can buy for about $5. A bent piece of heavy fence wire usually works, too.

Polio field hospital, Hickory NC 1944. The community need it, and so we built it. Army tents and bunks, Red Cross nurses and doctors, equipment appeared in a matter of days. We are so capable of stepping up, as soon as we decide the need is great enough.

Composite sketch of the possible Kirk shooter.

Good morning.

This. This is what we had before Excel. And I let me tell you, a whole lot of my life recorded on these columnar sheets, and none of that shit has been digitized.

"The real damage is done by those millions who want to 'survive.' The honest men who just want to be left in peace. Those who don’t want their little lives disturbed by anything bigger than themselves." - Sophie Scholl www.nationalww2museum.org/war/articles...

Moshannon Valley Detention Center protest today. Good turn out, good to see old friends.

Remember back when we said to delete your period apps and use a paper calendar, and people said we were overreacting?

The book Black Flags and Windmills tells a good portion of the local organizing story. Common Ground Collective got a lot done in the Lower 9th before anybody else even showed up.

@markcokenour.bsky.social this was forwarded to me, are you the person to credit?

The children are starving to death. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/m... Do we have a word stronger than genocide?
