My “Alvordersary” a Thread 🧵 1/
Today is my 10 year "Alvordersary." January 25th, 2015 was the first time I laid eyes on the Playa in person.
I was chasing Comet Lovejoy. The plan was Painted Hills but it was clouded over. So I kept going South…

Surprise: Some Red Auroras are *not* Auroras

Gen X here! I recall growing up in SoCal in the 70s and hearing “smog alerts” and no playing outside, etc. Particulate matter lodging in lungs and asthma rates exponentially higher in Valley and Central Valley… what an eeeediot.

I can’t sleep. I fear the new USPS rules will wipe our states like Oregon. Or will he continue to use ICE to trigger unrest and declare Marshall Law? Really proud Portland didn’t take the bait recently.

What’s so frightening and incomprehensible to me is these Proud Boys, et al, now have permission to break the law and even murder with what appears to be impunity. Racist wet dream.

Immigrants commit fewer crimes, meaning they're not the threat they've been made out to be. Thus, ICE's deployment and actions are political. Assass*nation refers to someone being killed for political reasons. Put it together, and you see Renee Good was assassinated. It's also terrorism.

Well BlueSky - I really wanted this APP to workout. But I post a beautiful Aurora video and many others and zero engagement. It’s like I’m invisible here. Flop. Sigh. 😮💨
This is due South at the 45th parallel. Corona! Gannon G5 Solar Storm May 10th, 2024.
