An old hippie, 71, retired, widowed and hanging on for all I'm worth. I LOVE Sci-Fi, nature photography, my adopted state of Oregon, dogs, dogs, dogs and people too. I'm a progressive liberal atheist humanist and won't apologize for being any of those.✌🏻

DM's. It really should go without saying that here on Bluesky DM's are unacceptable unless invited, solicited or at least one gets permission out in the public space from the account owner before sending a DM.
It's pushy and rude to just DM someone. Don't do it without prior permission.
Agreed?

Raskin: What makes somebody a good lawyer?
You have to identify with the people who are the victims of injustice — not with their perpetrators.
So I would say to Pam Bondi: If you’re going to stand with the victimizers and not the victims, then you’re not a real lawyer.

Seems like this would be a great time for Newsom’s social media team to get crackin’ on producing more anti-tRUMP memes. They’ve been few and far between lately.

Look for the good things. Look for the helpers. Look for the people fighting fascism. Look for all the positives no matter how bad things might feel. You deserve to have hope and you should have hope. There's more happening than meets the eye. There's more happening than the news media is reporting.

If Jesus really existed and if he's claimed to have sacrificed his life for our sins but then he rises from the dead then where was the sacrifice? He got his life back and got to be co-king. How is that a sacrifice?

I just bet that there's ten times more data on, evidence for and recorded history about MANY ancient kings and leaders that lived way over two thousand years ago than there is of Jesus Christ. That SHOULD mean something to people who think.

Swimming between stands of kelp in quiet waters is a Box Jelly. The shiny part near the top of the bell (lower left in the pic) is a small fish that's getting digested. Box Jellyfish have evolved very toxic venom and some like an Australian species kill more people than sharks do each year.
