Cup of coffee and the book Roadside Picnic

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

Sunny and warm Feb day

I finally put together this six minute slideshow featuring the Smolenski park prairie restoration and the plants and animals in it. Six years ago it was a weedy unused farm field, now it's habitat!

We have to keep the pressure up on Trump now that he’s backing down. That’s our role in keeping this democracy. Here’s the information you need to know: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
Do we separate them at birth because the mother is brown and isn’t carrying her ID and we don’t really care anyway because those papers aren’t real get in van?
Isn’t he an assassin?
( I’m struggling to keep all the lies straight, please forgive me)
Tree mostly obscuring the view of a bunch of college kids in the snowy street, ready to help motorists, in Columbus Ohio
Feels like society’s really broken down in the US in a way that’s deeply traumatic.
But also there are college students knocking on doors asking for shovels (they’re not well-prepared) and helping trapped motorists by shoveling and pushing out cars. Up to 24 of them now, wandering streets together
It's cold outside and snowy, too! Is climate change a hoax?
Not at all. Winter still brings cold weather even as the planet warms.
In fact, warmer oceans + a rapidly warming Arctic can even increase the intensity of winter storms and heavy snowfall.
That's why I call it Global Weirding!
ONLY weak men think they’re alphas, or think about the concept at all

Bless the people of Minnesota showing up in frigid temps this weekend to fight for democracy.
18 outside near Chicago today which is easily 20+ degrees warmer than when people were out in MN
#nativeplants for a little winter interest
* Gun and protests rights not valid in all states or applicable to all types of people (you know the ones)
Consult your nearest fascist to see if rights are right for you.
Minnesota lawmakers have pleaded with the Trump administration to withdraw ICE agents from the state.
But why can’t they do more?
The answer is deeply unsatisfying, troubling, and well worth understanding at this critical moment for our country’s future:
Use the anger you’re feeling now to get caught up and keep fighting it.
Kneeling protest
Fully armed With automatic weapons while occupying a government building protest
On a public street videoing ICE and helping a woman get to safety with both hands up protest
One of these forms of protest is acceptable
One ends your career
One gets you executed
This is the lead story on Fox right now.
Now AG Pam Bondi is using ICE as leverage to extort MN Gov Tim Walz. This is Trump’s tried and true formula: inflict pain and then demand payment to make it stop.

They gave him a peace prize he so desperately wanted
Before Kent State, there was the Orangeburg Massacre at South Carolina State.
We're not trying to one-up you. We're demanding that you put the pieces of the puzzle together.
this is good, but you need to tell us what you are actually doing to stop this
Dems are playing like this admin/gop aren't burning everything down in real time
there is no "vote blue in the mid-terms" because the fascist already has armed troops in the street killing people
This can have consequences for how agents see themselves. If they put on clothes designed for war, they are more likely to see cities as hostile terrain and citizens as enemy combatants, which can increase the chance of violence. Link to the story here:

This is apparently on X. I have a few concerns: 1) why is DHS sending photos of (alleged) evidence that should be in a secure chain of custody that is now lying on a car seat??? and 2) being armed does not on its own justify the use of deadly force — there has to be evidence he was trying to use it
stuck in another century like nothing is new
