Russ Vought has once again escalated his illegal CFPB shutdown by ordering CFPB cases to be transferred to the DOJ. It’s time for Congress to impeach and remove Russell Vought from power. nteu335.org/2025/11/20/c...

Why, there they are, both baked in this pie;
Whereof their mother daintily hath fed,
Eating the flesh that she herself hath bred.

The day before the day before Thanksgiving at our local food pantry, we served our record-breaking 358 families with large boxes of food, crates of produce, cartons of milk, and chicken or ham. We then had celebratory beers at our local brew pub. #TocoHillsCommunityAlliance

The Wonder Mike verse of Rapper's Delight where he just suddenly starts going off about how much the food at his friend's house just completely fucking sucks is a Thanksgiving song.

When a meal fights back!

I’ve only gotten distant looks at Yellow-crowned Night-heron adults, delighted to find one close! It’s trying to eat a crab but the crab’s got its beak pinched.

Super compressed video quickly moved to my phone from my camera (sorry!) just too excited to wait to share

Why did the red crab cross the road?
The answer is sex.
You're seeing an island-wide booty call.

This is a MATING MIGRATION. These red crabs (Gecarcoidea natalis) are meeting up on the beach to make lots of little crabs.

It's Crab Spring Break (literally).

Since Disney seems so hellbent on burning warehouse-sized piles of money on "Let's-Appeal-To-Gen-X/Elder-Millenial-Nostalgia" with reboots and "legacy sequels", maybe they should try it with "The Black Hole".

Yesterday I discovered that we have TWO flocks of turkeys running amok in our neighborhood. This larger flock has 12-15 birds (hard to count them as they were in our neighbors backyards.) Sunday I saw a smaller flock of 4 younger birds. They can fly, just short distances.

I sometimes go down various science conspiracy rabbit holes, so when the big Genesis Mission announcement dropped yesterday, it triggered me to go off on one of my favorites: MAHA medbeds.

All the AIxBio hype in the world does not make fantasy a reality

I Demand My MAHA Genesis Mission Medbed
But I'll settle for vaccines and a functional health system since medbeds don't exist no matter how much AI you throw at it
