Awoke just after 11:00 last night to a strange glow in the bedroom. Looked out the window to see Aurora borealis bathing our entire valley in red, upstaging the lights on the cell tower.

The newly-harvested cornfield seemed to reflect the colours in the sky.

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

I would just like to ask the Republican Party to please put Stephen Miller in front cameras as much as possible from now until the midterms because he is such a likable & charismatic person with so many amazing & popular ideas for people who aren’t white Christian nationalists.

Agnotology has harnessed great power in the past few years. And AI will further its agenda, as computing pioneer John McCarthy warned in 1983:

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

Recycling this photo from mid-July for #Stunday

Percy has had every opportunity to sit here before, but it was only when I left some papers atop the little sewing chest that he determined it was a cat-ready perch

This woman is fearless
A brave young woman asks JD Vance: “When you talk about too many immigrants here, when did you guys decide that number? Why did you sell us a dream? You gave us the path and now tell us we don't belong here? Why do you have to be Christian to be American?”
