If things ever reach normalcy again, you might see me posting about uranium glass, baked goods, cats, and life within an ADHD household.

I have a foreign friend that is not up to date on anything happening in America, and I don't even know where to start. I want to catch him up, but there's so much it's overwhelming.

Trudeau & Zelenskyy understand Trump quite well. In different ways, they reject "soft" interpretations of Trump's actions. In Trudeau's case, this means asserting the premise: "Trump is trying to destroy Canada's economy" followed by a reasonable interpretation as to "why" based on Trump's own words
Trudeau: "He talked about banking again today in a tweet, which doesn't make any sense because 16 banks are currently active in Canada holding about $113b worth of assets in this country... what he wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy, because that'll make it easier to annex us."

From a friend, feel free to share.

On March 15th, many people will mail Donald Trump a postcard that publicly expresses our opposition to him.

Dear President Zelensky,

As it is likely that our paths will never cross in person, I could not let this day go by without trying to reach you here.

I come to you humbly as an American citizen who is thoroughly and completely embarrassed of our leaders.

Do you need a measles booster shot? What to know as a U.S. outbreak continues to spread.

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.
Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

The resistance will bring down Musk and Trump. Congress, wake up before your power is gone. The GOP begging Trump to release money to their states is pathetic—stand up to this tyranny. Congress controls the purse strings.

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank.

I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history.

Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

I did a walkthrough, here’s a timelapse. This is probably the biggest demo in D.C. so far post-inauguration, brought together by the 50501 Movement which originated on Reddit.

Everyone was chanting “fire Elon!” while I was filming this.
