I took a photo yesterday as the sun was setting and I thought it would be fun to shoot it again while it was snowing.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

Have you ever been on an ACA plan, or been able to stay on your parents’ healthcare until your mid-20s? Do you understand what happens if you don’t have healthcare access? Do you know how much BS Dems went through to get a watered down Heritage plan approved? And to just balk at that now? Foh.

The ocean has been hoarding heat. Now it is building up a massive 'burp.'
Even if humans cut emissions enough to reduce global temperatures, new research shows the Southern Ocean could kick warming back into gear.

We see this with nearly every source quoted by the New York Times to represent average, Salt of the Earth, middle-of-the-road opinion, and within 15 minutes people have easily shown they're the chief organizer of Bigots to Ruin Everything or main funder of Local Republican Officials for Pure Evil.

Read every word & share with everyone you know. This is real life here in Chicago. Americans need to know this grotesque reality & stand with us.
Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.
He is a computer safety researcher.
And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

We cannot let “haunted ICE agent regretfully explores his feelings/past/guilt” become a genre the way we did with every bad actor since the Confederates.
This is why they were in downtown Chicago today.
"one agent shouted, “Everyone say, ‘Little Village!’”"
Nuremberg Trials are the moderate stance

Not sold on the idea that this would shift the blame, since kind of the whole point is that when the news is bad, normal people just blame the president; what it would do is take a lot of bad things out of the news, creating the impression that the president must be handling things better now.

The state of conservative youth politics is so fucking bleak. Even in Australia, all the Young LNP people are swimming in the same rancid sewer as the Groypers. The fascist internationale is all too real.

Every single program like this stimulates the actual economy because it puts money into real people’s pockets
A family that spends $1,000 a month on childcare is going to now have $1,000 a month to spend on other things!

Republicans seem to think that the norms created by the social contract are just sort of a immutable laws of nature and that therefore, tearing up the social contract will have no negative consequences for them, and I am, very much not looking forward to that thesis being tested
I think we're genuinely flirting with a societal rupture and I'm not sure I want to experience that
