Forest facts:

- Trees grow exponentially faster as they age.

- Older forests do more to moderate climate and are more resilient than young forests.

- Biodiversity = resiliency.

- Death and decay are normal and healthy.

- Natural succession has no easy shortcuts.

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

Oh look, another White House Signal scandal.

This time it was an aide to Stephen Miller who was using Signal so openly in a public space that a bystander captured images of the chat.

Oh and the messages were about sending the *82nd Airborne* into Portland.

True. Figurr-8 knot. You can always untie a figure eight.

I'm 75. I once had some of my children's friends help me with a trailer load. One day they asked where the binders were. I pulled out a rope & started tying a bowline, a figure-8, a trucker's hitch, & they all went. "Wow, he's using a rope!"

Funny how when they cut human staff and use machines, kiosks, AI, Chatbots, the prices never, ever go down…… (like did your airline ticket price go down now that you use kiosks?)
When they fired checkout staff, supermarket prices didn't go down

When they fired meter readers, energy prices didn't go down

When they cut benefits/pensions your Public Services don't get more money

They only cut things to feed the profits and cut the taxes of the richest

The senile piece of shit fascist wants museums to stop displaying pieces and exhibits that talk about the history of the US
The fascist in the White House only wants Americans to be able to see the history that Trump and Republicans think is acceptable
This is one of the definitions of fascism
