Are Republicans going to fix hurricane season by just not believing in it? 🥴 I'm so concerned about how this is going to go and I don't even live in a hurricane zone. We don't deserve this incompetence 😖
“Staff of FEMA were left baffled on Monday after the head of the U.S. disaster agency said during a briefing that he had not been aware the country has a hurricane season” www.reuters.com/world/us/fem...
In the course of an answer to a question about state budgets for disaster response and recovery, FEMA Acting Director Richardson said he just learned from his girlfriend (who has “huge red hair”) that Texas is bigger than Spain. He consulted a map to be sure.

George Floyd should be alive today.
He should be raising his daughter, living his life.
5 years later, we owe him more than thoughts and hashtags.
His daughter said, “My daddy changed the world.”
Let’s stop failing her, and him.
Congress must pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

I can't find the words for how evil this is
Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.

Thank you so much @cincinnatireview.bsky.social and @lisaampleman.bsky.social for sharing this with your readers. We need art as much as ever--this is about the littlest artist I know 💕
An essay by contributor @cdonosowriter.bsky.social (Cristi Donoso) on encouraging her son's creativity: "I take it as a sacred duty to create the necessary conditions for his art to exist, for nurturing his creative life, whatever form that will take." Link in thread:

I'm sure Warner got an influx of calls yesterday (including mine) and he moved to NO. Called Schumer this morning. Keep the pressure on
KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN.
☎️: (202) 224-3121
Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.
The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.
Call retiring Senators too!

So there go the midterms? I'm so deeply sad
The move puts the security and integrity of elections in the U.S. — especially at the state level, where local election officials rely on CISA resources to securely run elections — at risk. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Have you been asked, as a federal worker, to do something you don't want to do? But they won't put it in writing?
DON'T DO IT.
If they're going to punish you? MAKE THEM PUT IT IN WRITING. ALL OF IT.
Document, document, document.
Act confused. Be confused! Go slow. Require clarity. Lots. Document

Into the abyss, I say: I don't know how to go on as normal in this world. I will go on, but the brokenness and evil is staggering. My heart is with everyone hurting right now, in Gaza, in Ukraine, in places where our abuse of the earth is making itself apparent 💔

THEN we compost it! Curbside composting is amazing and every city should have it 🙂 It's the opinion I'm most annoying about
We DO NOT throw perfectly good food away in this house.
We put leftovers in a Tupperware & let it go bad, THEN throw it out!
