The Eaton fires destroyed a youth care facility my friend worked at. They had no time to pack, and everything is lost.

Please help support them if you can. These children and teen were ALREADY vulnerable before the fires.

LA friends, if you’ve lost your home, I’m so sorry. In case it helps, here’s some stuff I wish I’d known:

1. Make detailed contemporaneous notes about every conversation you have with your insurance company.

Republicans are coming for your Social Security benefits

Bet the House on it

Utah Senator Mike Lee before the election:

“I am aware of NO REPUBLICAN..who has suggested any modification of Social Security”

Mike Lee now:

Social Security is “a Ponzi scheme”

So

Are you ready to fight?

This is one of those photos that you can't quite believe really happened. I encountered this grey gray owl (1 of 2) on my way home from town. It was so focussed on hunting, that I could stand to the side and watch. I didn't have my camera set to continuous shutter, so I'm stunned this came out. 🪶🌿

One thing I think people talking about the threat of authoritarian creep have gotten, if not exactly wrong, not quite right either is to frame discussion in terms of various European precedents.

Those are relevant to be sure, but we also have an American precedent - namely the South before 1965.

Feeling my sanity slipping away as more and more (genuinely awful) stories about what Trump said or did accrues. Because:

Lemme see if I get this: the guy who spent five years pushing the racist lie that Pres. Obama wasn't born here staged a photo-op at a closed McDonalds, pretending to serve supporters who were pretending to be customers, to falsely claim VP Harris didn't work there in her youth.

Fun fact. Not only was that McDonald's not open - every customer was staged - but the owner of that place recently whined to the Pennsylvania government about not wanting to pay his employees a living wage. Because of course he did.
