Three steps of a waterfall that flows down intricately carved warm brown rocks. The walls of the falls are narrow, with greenery close to the edges.

Al Gore didn’t hold back: The Trump admin is “attacking the heart of truth,” twisting facts like the Nazis did in the 1930s. From climate denial to rewriting the Ukraine war, it’s all about power—not reality.
Gore warned the U.S. is under siege—and every former leader should speak out like he did.

A small octopus sculpture sitting in a shell, holding a royal blue spinel gemstone. It depicts the species octopus cyanea, also known as the Day Octopus. It's a warm brown colored octopus with a pattern of white spots on each arm, and a star like white pattern around the eyes.

With ICE's *enormous* new budget and its ability to hire *many* more agents, the United States is about to enter an era of brutal domestic terrorism that we've never seen before.

Literal cages. Not even metaphorical ones. Literal ones.
Jason Delgado (Florida Capitol reporter for Spectrum News 13) on X: "Quick look at what inside a detainment tent looks like here at Alligator Alcatraz." What is shown in the picture is a long tent structure, about 50 feet wide. There is a corridor running down the middle. On each side are three rows of bunk beds. The bunk beds are sectioned off into cells which are constructed out of chain link fence, with chain link on the ceiling as well, making each cell a literal cage. It looks to me like each cell contains 9 bunk beds, so has capacity for 18 people each.

I believe in states rights, the right to be ranked by all the countries in the world as well as the other states. Here is a map of the United States with the numbers that show where they rank in the world in how good they keep babies alive. 🧪💡☠️ #Sociology #Population #Demography
When you look at these rankings the thing you should be thinking about is the United States spends the most of any country for health care. But our biggest problem is Evangelicals have their own health insurance system that supports care at home and to see how percent Evangelical relates to this rank has just been added to my TO DO list. If you would like an email with the complete list sorted with lowest at the top send an email to pecanjim(at sign here)bellsouth.net and I will send it to you in a rather long email. Feel free to use it any way you want, this is the only place I will be able to make it available. It is way too long to post here.

Spent time trimming my dogwoods, Redbuds, and various shrubs today prior to rain. Stopped and cut some Korean Lilac blossoms to place in a vase for my bathroom. Just in time, as rain has started now and distant thunder is duly noted.

Baby's Day Out ☀️

Tula-Tu explored outside in Elephant Lands for the first time yesterday! Now that the weather is warmer, she'll be spending more time playing in the sun with her mom and aunties.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.

If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.

Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

Ozymandias
Ozymandias I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert . . . Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed: And on the pedestal these words appear: ‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!’ Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

British cartoonist Becky Burke who spent 20 days in harsh conditions in a Tacoma detention centre for a trivial visa issue while crossing into America from Canada is finally on her way home.

The US needs travel warnings now.
