There's good reason oligarchies have never really worked out in modern civilization, and we're about to find out why. It's just unfortunate that so many innocent lives will be ruined in the process.
Was just forced back to 3 days in office versus 2 and was already mad about the extra commute time.
I think itβs more likely that Hegseth thinks βno quarterβ sounds cool since he sees it in his Christian Nationalist 4Chan groups all the time, and doesnβt know what it actually means.

Someone lost their wedding ring in a subduction zone and USGS is pulling the plate back up to retrieve it.

βA Huge Win for Wildlife in Oregon: New Funding for Conservationβ A bumble bee on a lupine flower along the Oregon coast.
Over the last year, Xerces has been part of a coalition of organizations supporting a bill in Oregon that would increase the state lodging tax by 1.25%, and dedicate that money to wildlife conservation. And it passed! This ensures long-term funding for the state's most vulnerable species!
Back in 1978, I traveled through Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India & Nepal with my best friend on the ultimate trip for any backpacker β the so-called Hippie Trail.

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

On this yearβs long covid awareness day, I want more people to read and think about what the late Shafiqah Hudson said before it killed her. Because she was right, as usual, and also early, as usual. Perhaps too early for a lot of people to listen.
