An 111 year-old photo of Mt. Lassen volcanic activity reminds us that Lassen is active and will eventually erupt again. Below (comment) is a link to the history of the 1914 - 1917 eruptions that include the one below. Picture from great uncle and provided by cousin.

People usually prefer being governed by their countrymen to being governed by foreign invaders, even when their countrymen are violent and greedy.
When the invaders are also violent and greedy, it's not a hard choice.
Still, there are always quislings.

Not to be all “back in my day”, but every time I watch an old movie and they say “mind if I smoke?” I instantly flash back to a PSA on buses in the 90s. And I feel like we need this kind of blunt messaging on public health stuff.
It WORKED. It’s still in my head 30 years later.

Whatever one thinks of the attack on Venezuela, you have to admire the skill and strategic precision of the military forces that stormed Madura's fortress and so effectively removed the Epstein Files from the headlines.

The more I ponder the pics of Maduro, the more I’ve begun to see the White House’s Twitter as the modern-day equivalent of the Roman triumphal procession. Publicly humiliating any captive—whether Vercingetorix, Zenobia, Jewish Captives taken under Vespasian, or a modern leader—is cruel and inhumane.

Semi-soft Wisconsin 🐐🧀 washed with sour peach beer. Funky aroma, salty rind, the paste itself is mild and clean, with a bit of fruit tanginess and a little mineral. The texture is smooth.

Very hard to determine why this happened when the principals just ad lib a new reasoning for it every time they're asked
WELKER: If the purpose of the operation was to capture Maduro and bring him to justice, why does the US need to take over the Venezuela oil industry?
RUBIO: Well, we don't *need* to. We have plenty of oil in the US. We want to see the oil proceeds of the country benefit the people of Venezuela.

admittedly people are still posting through this, but it is wild, after having lived through the 1990s and 2000s, to see there are people saying that there is no organized left or no anti-war movement in the US

Ultimately no form of identification will be sufficient, and this is deliberate, in order to smooth the way to internment and exportation of any US citizen they decide is undesirable.
