Between the tariffs, the immigration crackdown, and cuts to SNAP, Trump is creating a mass crisis in U.S. farming. And a lot of this stuff can't be walked back. Chinese markets for Argentine soybeans won't just switch back when Trump TACOs again. Bankrupt farmers can't just bounce back next year.

Not only is it going to be a hunger crisis, it's going to be a farm crisis. All those gallons of milk bought from dairy farmers, all the produce, all the on sale ground beef and packs of chicken that are paid for by SNAP are subsidies to farmers who don't qualify for commodities subsidies.

my heart sank when i got to “this will likely require a robust multi-national humanitarian response” because we probably won’t be showing up. other countries don’t currently have the capacity to fill the void that we’ve left

A true catastrophe is likely to unfold in Jamaica, as multiple days of rain followed by a direct hit from a top-end hurricane push the limits of what the country has seen historically. Details on the forecast, which aren’t much changed today below and at theeyewall.com.

Melissa explodes into a powerful hurricane, and it is going to deliver catastrophic impacts to Jamaica

Flooding, surge, and wind all look truly awful for Jamaica.

When transphobes talk about "basic biology" like they're experts, it always reminds me of a seven year old who declares they know all the numbers that exist because they learned to count to 100.

It wasn't fake. It was edited. But Reagan really did spend a five-minute speech – an April 25, 1987, national radio address that the Reagan Library has published on YouTube – to rail against tariffs. It was a full-throated expression of support for free and fair trade.

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

I'm sharing these perfect pride flowers again because I only need to sell 10 more to break even on making them. That seems doable! Also I think they're pretty 😊 #SciArt

Pride flowers anyone? These were inspired by the fact that 90% of flowering species have individual flowers that are both male and female 🌸 canopyrobin.etsy.com/listing/4338...

enamel pins of flowers in pride colours for nonbinary, pan, bi, lgbtq, and trans. They are on backing cards that say "A perfect flower" and other text which is too small to read in the photo

Putting a Democrat with a Nazi tattoo in the Senate normalizes Naziism in our federal politics for a long ass time.

All these recent stories about secret Nazi group chats? Anytime that happens going forward will be met with "But Platner."

It's not a purity test. Think through the consequences.

I've known too many dumb young marines to care that Platner was a dumb young marine, saw a context-free tottenkopf tattoo parlor flash, and got the 'sick skull tat, bro' in Croatia.

I care that upon finding out as an adult that he had a nazi tattoo he didn't immediately, horrified, book a removal.
