Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉

Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace.

You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.

Getting there.

One $67 million dollar fighter jet that fell overboard is a little under 1/3 of FY25 Salaries & Expenses Budget Request for Forest Service Research & Development workers feared to be at risk from threatened Reductions in Force.

Could the Forest service been saved by the cost of these two jets? What in the ever loving fuck are we doing spending so much on defense? Especially in the paws of a complete moron.

With all respect to a dire need to defeat WWII era authoritarian regimes:

You may be surprised to learn we already lost a whole National Forest 85 years ago.

In 1940, Congress transferred most all of the Choctawhatchee N.F. to the War Department.

Today the land is home to Eglin Air Force Base.

Regarding the March 1 Executive Order to “immediately expand American timber production,” the National Forest System provides a wealth of benefits besides timber.

Timber production is just one piece.

The other pieces have tremendous value, too.

If you have a parent or grandparent at a nursing home in North Carolina, then there's a good chance their care is paid for by Medicaid. Medicaid covers 60% of all nursing home stays in our state.

Last night, Republicans in Congress passed Trump's $880 billion across-the-board cut to Medicaid.

The January 6th insurrectionists, pardoned by Trump as one of his first acts in office, are now arguing that their pardons also apply to a wide range of other crimes.

🚨 Apparently the unlawful dismissals of probationary employees are not yet concluded at USFS 🚨

If you are, or think you might be, in probationary status, do not answer your phone Sunday or Monday (paid holiday), per NFFE-FSC union.
