emailing in a semi-literate manner isn’t a sign of stupidity, it’s another form of rich asshole arrogance because you don’t think you owe anyone coherent thoughts

Minneapolis is Burning
This morning Minneapolis park workers performed a controlled burn of the oak savanna near 36th St and W River Pkwy. It was the first time that the area was burned since habitat restoration began around 2001. Proud of MPRB for skilling up and expanding their use of fire to manage natural areas!

In an age where we have fewer and fewer collective cultural experiences that everyone is in on, it’s so special to come online and just scream, “omg omg omg” with strangers from across the country.

There’s a heart-shaped feature in the Sun’s corona - seen in a recent SDO’s A193 filtered image, which captures the hot solar atmosphere.

The Sun’s sending its love to Earth … cause nothing says love like an X-class flares and series of proton showers! 😅

there's a moment in PARADISE LOST where Satan arrives in Eden and realizes Hell isn't a place; it's a thing he carries within him and it'll follow him wherever he goes. and i think about that when i see these awful rich men whose monstrous wealth has enriched them not at all

#2: I'd bet good money that, behind the scenes, Amy Klobuchar was orchestrating & approving this cave-in. Like Chuck Schumer, she didn't vote for it, (They only needed 8 votes and had them.) but she was part of the group that had been planning this for a few weeks. Amy acts centrist; votes rightward

if you ever randomly get the urge to donate to the democratic party, feel free to venmo that money to me or another trans person instead - we'll make sure it doesn't get used to take away people's healthcare

Good news for these senators is they won’t need to fly to Washington anymore once their terms are up
Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

Called and left messages for @klobuchar.senate.gov and @smith.senate.gov asking them to hold firm on the ACA
Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.
