Something will have gone out of us as a people if we ever let the remaining wilderness be destroyed . . . One means of sanity is to retain a hold on the natural world.

Meanwhile, back at The American Revolution...
I, too, love Rep. Raskin, but Sherrilyn Ifill is right on this. MTG has said and done a lot of awful things, showing us exactly who she is. She's got a long way to go to prove she's actually changed. It's just kind of driving me crazy that people are falling for this sudden new MTG.
Love you @raskin.house.gov. But it’s not THAT big.
Raskin: We are a big tent. We must be a huge, vast tent. I say this is a party that’s got room for Marjorie Taylor Greene if she wants to come over.

Be aware. We no longer have a government we can trust to provide public health guidance or anything else, for that matter.
1/ H3N2 that’s circulated worldwide this year “acquired 7 new mutations over the summer,” Antonia Ho, of Scotland’s U of Glasgow, said.
That “means the virus is quite different to the H3N2 strain included in this year’s vaccine,” she said.

Warnings rise for U.S. as severe flu strain causes outbreaks in Canada, U.K.
A flu strain that emerged over the summer is causing "unprecedented" outbreaks in Japan, as well as in Canada and the U.K. The CDC hasn't provided insights on flu in the U.S. in nearly two months.

The first voice in Ken Burns's The American Revolution documentary is Native American. Interesting choice that already complicates the questions: What is America? What does it mean to be American. #HATM

No one should have to face such threats.
It would’ve been nice if Greene had realized this before she amplified and endorsed calls for executing Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama.

A Cartoonist Finds Hope Amid the Apocalypse(s) • The Revelator
In two powerful new graphic novels, Peter Kuper tackles climate change, disappearing insects, and other tough environmental topics — but gives us reasons to avoid despair.

Can't believe I just realized BreatheTeq is here but if anyone is looking for good masks, they are pretty much all I use anymore. I prefer the earloop KN95s (lavender!) but they now have these, too. ⬇️ 3M N95s are great too. I just like BreatheTeq.
We know lots of you have been asking 3M for a Black Aura - like mask for consumer use.
Today we're excited to launch a new product to fill that hole in the market!
Introducing the headband version of BreatheTeq KN95.
Available in black and white.

Content warning! I'm going to post a poop pic. If anyone has an opinion on who is leaving this on a large tree stump in my yard, I'll be interested. It's not the first time. My yard is fenced.

I had a busy early morning but for the last 2.5 hours, all I've done is watch backyard birds. They are thirsty, and apparently dirty, today! So much fun. I have three bird baths (two are not heated so if the cold weather sets in, they'll have to settle for the deck bath. So far:

Took this at 5:30 this morning just in case there were still some northern lights. Thought the stars were pretty. Then the sunrise happened.

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.
