The chrysalis is progressing. Can you see the outline of the wing? It is also getting golden spots and a line on the outside. So cool

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.
Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.
The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.
Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M
See the problem?

This is the biggest caterpillar I've ever seen. As long as my finger, about half the width. It is a Leafy Spurge Hawkmoth caterpillar. Very cool. Sighted in northern Wisconsin.

If someone tells you there's nothing we can do about gun violence beyond thoughts and prayers, remind them:
—Gun laws in other countries have prevented mass shootings
—More guns don't make us safer
—A majority of Americans want gun reform
We don't have to live like this.

Hurricane forecasts are now much more accurate, 20 years on — largely because of federal government research.
Hurricane science has come far since Katrina. That progress is now at risk

CW: Sexual assault
Women are being kidnapped and assaulted by men who impersonate ICE agents. This is one of many reasons why we can’t have a masked, unaccountable secret police force roaming the streets. Urge your elected officials to take action today: www.bluestatedefiance.org/no-secret-po...

Trump wants to get rid of mail-in ballots so he can intimidate voters with federal troops stationed at the polling stations.
Hard to scare people who can just quietly mail in their votes.

The GOP governors of South Carolina, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee have all sent their states' National Guard troops to assist Trump's occupation of DC.
All four of those states have cities with crime rates higher than DC.
This was never about "fighting crime."

By fleeing DC to get an early start on August recess, Republicans hoped they could avoid voting on the Epstein files and make Americans forget about Trump’s cover-up.

Trump revoked Biden's executive order cracking down on anti-competitive corporate practices.
This gives Big Tech, Ag, Pharma, and airline monopolies even more power to price-gouge and rip you off.

The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.
When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.
The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.
