Just FYI in case anyone's interested, when you put a bunch of emojis after your screen name it makes it unnecessarily challenging for people who use screen readers to read your posts and follow you. The screen reader will read out every single emoji description every time you pop up in their feed.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Just dropped this elsewhere, so boosting, since the illegal-orders discussion is back in the news: there's some great GI Rights Hotline postcards and leaflets for printing and distributing, but here's one with the absolute basic message and phone number as a label template.
rahaeli.bsky.social rahaeli @rahaeli.bsky.social · Jun 15
I've seen a bunch of people sharing leaflet and postcard-sized versions of the GI Rights Hotline info, but I haven't seen any templates designed for label printing, so 30 seconds with the Avery template maker made the simplest possible version with the absolute basics (to be seen from a distance).

They mostly were yards behind #BEKI, but 4 or 5 #crows were harassing Mr. BEKI and it was a very high speed chase. BEKI mostly stuck to trying to fish and it was great karma when BEKI slowed and dove for fish and the crow got to experience "which way did it go?" as it flew through the splash.
#birds
A crow, a large black bird is chasing a belted kingfisher just above the water. I am not sure why they were chasing, but I think these were some young adult crows practicing territory defense. The kingfisher has been fishing here for years, so she wasn't having any of it. The crows were just a nuisance while he was fishing. Another shot of the crow chasing the kingfisher, a blue and white bird that is a master fisher. The kingfisher is showing a nice wingspread as two crows lag behind chasing it. The kingfisher dives for a fish sending a large splash of water. The crow flies through the splash and looks shocked as it pulls up with wings and tail spread. Young crows got a lesson in Belted Kingfisher that day.

Joyce Carol Oates @Joyce... 17h O So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates— scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the "most wealthy person in the world." Elon Musk ' @elonmusk X.com Oates is a liar and delights in being mean. Not a good human.

Nov 2025 --Fed District Judge Jamal Whitehead rules wide-ranging DOJ subpoena served on QueerDoc, a telemed pediatric care provider, cannot be enforced bec. not part of legitimate investigation. This was one of 20 served last June.
@rikiwilchins.bsky.social
DOJ tried to subpoena an online trans health care provider. A judge quashed it.
Seattle-based U.S. District Judge Jamal Whitehead says DOJ’s demand serves an “improper purpose” of executing Trump’s orders targeting gender-affirming care.

Happy International Repair Day!

This is one of my favourite repairs.

I’m spending the day teaching darning, which feels very appropriate!

Thanks Seney National Wildlife Refuge where hand rearing techniques were developed and Necedah NWR who carried out the restoration project. Seney is down to three staff members and has a multi million dollar project halted with an unfinished roof.

We are now able to experience Whooping Cranes in ways that were unimaginable only a few decades ago. It's probably been hundreds of years since flocks, numbering in the dozens of individuals, danced together in the warm autumn light. #Birds #conservation #SK
