Morning!

One benefit of having to pee in the middle of night is that I get to check out the window to see if there are any northern lights on display. Got lucky with that at 3.30am this morning!

#Iceland #AuroraBorealis #NorthernLights #TMI

A view up into the starry night sky with the Milky Way just showing at the top left, and a nice array of mostly green northern lights on the right hand side. There's some little bits of purple.

I have to stop and say hi to this mountain every time I drive past. There's a huge parking area now, so it's easier (even if they did demolish my favourite pond to create it 😭). It's such a magnificent beast.

A mighty fine massive mountain with rocky top and grassy flanks with tiny bits of snow and autumnal colours. It is perfectly reflected in a pond below and the sky is bright blue.

Meanwhile USDA Sec Rollins is trying to change the subject —the subject being Trump's decision to withhold food aid from 40M people—by claiming the admin is focused on rooting out SNAP fraud.
To be fair, no one can fraudulently receive benefits if no one receives benefits, period

Understandable why grocery stores might be scared off. A store caught violating the prohibition could be denied ability to accept SNAP benefits in the future. In low-inc areas where SNAP shutdown will have biggest impact, getting thrown off SNAP could mean a store is no longer financially viable.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Testosterone for women? Post-menopausal therapy. Accessible through most types of insurance.

Testosterone for trans men? Not accessible unless you have a doctor to sign off for it and even then, not accessible through many types of insurance unless your doctor is willing to sign off on *that*, too.

I've developed this helpful sign for people who haven't done the reading.

all of the medical treatments trans people access to more closely align with their gender are ALSO used by c1s people. They were developed for c1s people.
It's not the treatments the genitally-obsessed bigots have a problem with. It's trans people. period.

Suddenly when puberty blockers are given to cis kids, the Daily Mail (the same newspaper which backed Hitler btw) finally admits that "their effects are not permanent, and once a child lets their blocking treatment lapse, puberty will just continue as normal."

Which is true for trans kids too.

Stéphanie says… 🏴‍☠️☕️🍰 @stephaniejane.bsky.social · 1d

Because it’s cis kids.
The NHS will quite casually give cis kids whatever treatment they need, even PBs👇
No trials. No concerns about side effects. No moral panic.

ICE shot an American citizen and food bank worker who tried to block them arresting an immigrant by pulling his car in front of them.
After being released from hospital: "He is now facing charges for assault on a federal officer."
www.calonews.com/featured-top...

Carlos Jimenez, a 24-year-old U.S. citizen, was on his way to work at a food bank when he was shot by ICE officers in what a DHS spokesperson calls “defensive shots.”

On Thursday morning at approximately 6:30 a.m., ICE officers were at Vineyard Avenue in Ontario when Jimenez, who was not in the target vehicle, attempted to pull in front of the officers.

According to Javier Hernandez, executive director of the Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice, Jimenez was trying to assist and provide aid to the person who was being stopped by ICE officers.

After Jimenez was shot in the shoulder, the LA Times and LA Taco reported that he drove to his brother’s house so he could take him to the hospital.

Old: The US might illegally attack Venezuela.

New: The US might illegally attack Nigeria.

If the Nigerian Government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the U.S.A. will immediately stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria, and may very well go into that now disgraced country, “guns-a-blazing,” to completely wipe out the Islamic Terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities. I am hereby instructing our Department of War to prepare for possible action. If we attack, it will be fast, vicious, and sweet, just like the terrorist thugs attack our CHERISHED Christians! WARNING: THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT BETTER MOVE FAST!

「日本に残りたい、でも」　親の強制送還、おびえる外国人の子たち | 毎日新聞 mainichi.jp/articles/202...

〈日本弁護士連合会は、ゼロプランは外国人の…画一的な送還・出国を目指すものだと批判する。各自の事情に目を向けて、保護すべき人については在留の正規化を検討することが不可欠とする〉

「日本に残りたい、でも」　親の強制送還、おびえる外国人の子たち | 毎日新聞

高校3年のクルド人男性（18）は8月、母国のトルコに帰るため航空機に乗った。同じタイミングで父と母はトルコへ強制送還されていた。　「日本に残りたい」。これが本心だった。だが、両親と離ればなれになることはできなかった。
