In Springfield, Ohio, people are preparing in advance of a “large deportation” promised by the president. To all appearances, the city is 2 or 3 days from a federal ethnic cleansing, grounded in a hate campaign organized by the vice-president and American Nazis.

It's National Hedgehog Day! 🦔 To celebrate, we found this lovely pamphlet advertising the Berkshire Tame Performing Hedgehog, named Jimmy. He could jump through small hoops and even had a set of bells to play at home. He was also particularly fond of string music! #hedgehog

I visited the far off lands of “The Seattle Center” today to see these fabled “retractable bollards.” 🛫🌎🌍🛬
A worker named Ralph who has been there for 25 years said they work great 👍. You can get through with a keycard or call box.
Perhaps someday we’ll import this exotic solution to Pike Place 💡

How many times in your life have you heard a member of Congress or someone on TV say “we can’t afford it” when talking about something small but very important? It’s been happening my entire life. We can’t afford it? They’re putting seven times the annual budget of the EPA into immigrant detention.
