One of the glorious things of living in paradise at the literal end of the world (Onetahua/Farewell Spit, te Waipounamu/Sth Island of Aotearoa New Zealand) is that cetaceans come here a lot - including to strand, unfortunately. Last week, we had two orca teaching their young to hunt stingrays! 🐳

I'm losing track of how many countries a man livid he wasn't given the Nobel Peace Prize has illegally bombed.

Iran. Venezuela. Nigeria. Afghanistan. Iraq. Libya. Pakistan. Somalia. Syria. Yemen.

Not to mention threatening to annex Greenland and Canada and invade Panama.

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

Same people celebrating Donald Trump invading Venezuela would be celebrating Adolf Hitler invading Czechoslovakia.

And believe me it is exactly the same, next is Poland (Greenland), and then France (Canada).

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

My main takeaway from the Jack Smith testimony: we should push our presidential candidate to make him Attorney General in 2029.

A little-noticed provision in the TRUMP AI Act would ban big tech platforms, including ostensibly Google, from distributing "sexual material harmful to minors" — a phrase routinely used by conservatives to ban not only porn, but sex ed, LGBTQ literature and repro rights resources.
The TRUMP AMERICA AI Act is every bit as bad as you would expect. Maybe worse.
Sen. Marsha Blackburn’s latest is an anti-tech omnibus, combining years' worth of dangerous policy ideas into one big, bad bill.

The top 10% of richest Americans own 87% of stocks.

The top 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks.

It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.

Because of a conspiracy theory-based stunt by a January 6 insurrectionist who was trying to intimidate children and daycare workers, Trump is now freezing ALL childcare payments across the country.

You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.

So “a million more documents” is now “roughly 5.2 million pages of Epstein files documents”

And they’re “seeking to enlist about 400 lawyers” to do doc review, which means they don’t even have the people yet to get it done

Trump & Pamela Jo are just slow-walking the shit out of violating the law.

Events like this and coral reef die offs reveal a harder truth: our ability to control ocean conditions or protect marine life at scale are an illusion.

Reports from inside Russia make it clear that there was no Ukrainian drone attack on Putin's compound. The compound is protected by SAMs, anti-aircraft guns, and fighter jets, none of which deployed. No person in the region heard or saw any evidence of an attack.

Putin lied; Trump believed him.

In a surprising move, Tesla has publicly released a delivery consensus for the fourth quarter of 2025 via a press release.

This is a significant departure from the automaker’s standard operating procedure, suggesting it is trying to get ahead of what looks to be a disappointing quarter.

Happy 2026 Bluesky! We played an epic game of cards, ate & drank with our besties and some lovely American & Irish WWOOFErs (willing workers on organic farms), and decided 2026 was going to be the year when we collectively wrestle back control from fascist billionaires & oligarchs ✊

The first time I searched Trump, there were over 900 records found.

I also confirmed there are now 332.
