Just once..ONCE!…I’d like to have someone ask, “ can you name those 8?” Because even if they lie, and they will, they’ll be on record.

Wow. The absolute idiocy masquerading as competence. The complete confidence of these ignorant tech bros is crazy!

Investigation: DHS increasingly targeting U.S. citizens A new Wall Street Journal investigation finds the department is increasingly turning its wrath on U.S. citizens, punishing them for filming or observing officers.

A new Wall Street Journal investigation finds DHS is increasingly turning its wrath on U.S. citizens, punishing them for simply filming or observing officers.

Belle Cushing is one of the reporters behind the investigation. She spoke with MPR News guest host Emily Reese about it.

Except the ID we use ( driver’s license) to buy a beer won’t be legal to use to vote if this passes. Neither will the Real ID. Repugnats gaslighting once again.

Screenshot of a book cover showing an illustration of a crow perched on an "ICE" jacket lying in the middle of a snow-lined road under the light of a full moon. The cover reads "ICE Out " by Charles de Lint. Text to the right of the cover reads "ICE came to Newford. Big mistake." and "Download for free!"

Urban fantasy author Charles de Lint just published a new "novelet" and released it for free, his stories of myth and magic and community and found family are full of so much love and hope and we could all use some of that right now

My 10th grade English teacher had us read this and the sequel, The Bull From the Sea, for our Greek mythology section. I absolutely loved it and immediately went to find anything else by her that I could. I don’t believe they’d even allow that book in a high school library nowadays.

Noem's weird lack of expression and inability to say anything outside of her scripted remarks are so bizarre. At this point I'm convinced she's a robot, a Stepford politician.

I grew up in Oregon. This plan to clear cut Oregon's old growth forests is terrible in multiple ways. This article gives info on the situation and also where/how you can submit a comment to the BLM. Comment period closes March 23.

One day I hope this will feel outdated.

We’re nowhere near there yet.

Tell me again about how they’re “protecting” women and girls? Fuck this administration forever.

Great look at some important judicial push back that happened today.

So how will they be protected in the meantime?

And the government will be sued AGAIN and they will lose AGAIN and the taxpayers will foot the bill AGAIN for their performative politics. I am so tired of this BS.

So so close to getting it. Who’s to blame for our neighbors hating us Tommy? Any idea? What an idiot.

It’s animal week for #ShowMeYourKnits so here are a couple of mine. Both patterns are by Erica Heusser, “Outfoxed” and “Varia”.

COVID-19 vaccination status during pregnancy and preeclampsia risk: the pandemic-era cohort of the INTERCOVID consortium COVID-19 vaccination with a booster reduces the odds of PE by 30% approaching 60% reduction among women with pre-existing morbidities.

Remember when RFK Jr. unilaterally decided that COVID19 vaccines should no longer be recommended during pregnancy?

Well, COVID19 increases the risk of preeclampsia.

And it turns out that getting boosted, either before or during pregnancy, significantly reduces the risk of preeclampsia.

Quite possibly my all time favorite Arthurian retelling. It was so so good!

As the world reels from the president's rant and threats of additional tariff chaos, I'd just like to remind the UK that they recently arrested someone who could probably bring down this entire house of cards with very little incentive.
