The New Bedford Light has more detailed reporting on this.

This story should be everywhere. Fucking gestapo shit.

"The strategic ambiguity about whether or not we live in an autocracy is designed to preserve maximum maneuverability for the regime until such time as they have full control and no longer need to maneuver."

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!

Found this Killdeer in the fading light yesterday. Takes a lot of patience to capture these quick movers with a nice background!

A surreal afternoon last September along the Salmon River upstream from Riggins, ID. A touch of wildfire smoke accelerates the layering of the distant hills.

$65K fine and 150 hours community service should set a strong example of why you shouldn't fly your #drone anywhere near an emergency response.

This old oak door in Port Townsend has seen it all. Deep carved wood and dark brass, standing through time like the old men made it. Bezos talks of one-way & two-way doors, but this one just watches the trade wars and politicians come and go. A damn good door that doesn't care either way.

Spotted this Western Meadowlark while wandering around Fort Worden in Port Townsend today.

It’s official: In the USA The Gulf of Mexico is now the “Gulf of America,” and Denali, the Alaska Native name for North America’s tallest peak, has been reverted to Mount McKinley. But we refuse to accept this change—Denali will always be Denali to us. #IStandWithDenali

Stopped by the new-ish Queensbury Rivian chargers. Great location with easy on/off I-87 with a Home2Suites next door. Pull through spot for trailers! 2 chargers out of service but plenty of open spots.
