Today I tackled Echo Mountain, a favorite trail for LA locals. I followed the Sam Merrill Trail, which took about an hour. The trail was lush and green, with plenty of historical sites to photograph.

Can we talk via private message?

Catherine-822.bsky.social @aoslime.bsky.social · 1d

It's okay. Everyone has their own work and life. You can finish your own things first.

Hello Steve, thank you for your attention. If it's convenient, may I ask you a question?

Someday there will be a reckoning for the serial killings that the US government is engaged in on the oceans. Another admin should not refuse to extradite indicted officials to Intl Criminal Courts and senior military officers “just following orders” should not be exempted.

Yes, I’ve been indicted. But I don’t want people to lose sight of what got us here.

Thank you for having me, @chrislhayes.bsky.social on @allinwithchris.bsky.social to discuss why these atrocities need to end and why there needs to be real accountability.

It seems clear that what Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says, “no matter how distantly tethered to scientific consensus, is successful at driving the public health conversation,” Jessica Grose writes.

Opinion | Circumcision Is Controversial. Of Course Kennedy Links It to Autism.

Circumcision is the latest example of Kennedy seizing on a hot-button issue that already has entrenched and aggressive internet partisans.

October in California is typically known as a dangerous moment in peak fire season, but an early-season storm that swept from the Bay Area to Los Angeles this week reduced the risk of a large fire breaking out before the end of the year, experts said.

A precondition for Republics to transition to autocracies is the politicization of the military. It is why the political & military leaders of the country have been so vigilant to keep partisanship away from it. But this admin is dismantling that concept. www.cnn.com/2025/10/15/p...

This deserves more attention. North Carolina wiped out $6.5 Billion in medical debt for 2.5 million residents. Less than 1/3 of what we paid to bail out Argentina.

ICE is disgusting. They should go to jail.

Here’s the thing. We still have the power (probably) to say that this image must not be what America is. We still have the power to say “fuck no, we refuse to allow this to be what the streets of America look like.” Attend a “No Kings” rally this Saturday. And then vote in 2026.
