Participatory music is my life. Very active Shape Note & choir singer & attendee and host of jams. Started learning piano during COVID. Politically active in liberal causes.
Between the layoffs at FEMA and now the ones at the National Weather Service, we’re losing both advance warnings of weather events and help recovering from them. We are being thrust into a world where we’re all on our own.

I’ve been studying civil rights protests for 20 years. With new mobilization against Trump’s agenda, I’m sharing a thread summarizing my research on how nonviolent & violent actions by 1960s activists and police influenced media, elites, public opinion & voters. 1/ www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

I am a history nerd, particularly of the Tudor period, and right now is hauntingly similar to the point when Henry VIII, the richest man in England, seized the monasteries, stripped them of their assets to further enrich himself, and destroyed the social structure in the process.

Embarrassing. They're going to feel so stupid in 10 years when nobody's wearing dead salmon hats anymore.
Orcas start wearing dead salmon hats again after ditching the trend for 37 years
Orcas off the coast of Washington State are balancing dead fish on their heads like it's the 1980s, but researchers still aren't sure why they do it.
