Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

Never forget this: The GOP’s nonsensical culture war is meant to distract you from corporate corruption, worker oppression, and staggering wealth inequality.

Tiny Masdevalia orchid (don’t know species as I lost the tag). #orchids #bloomscrolling #flowerreport
Tiny trumpet shaped Masdevalia orchid flower in yellow and orange colors. There are tiny hairs inside the trumpet of the flower and three long spines growing from the edge of the trumpet.

Oncidium NoID I got recently. My spouse doesn’t like me hybridizing orchids, so I got one I don’t hybridize yet. I’ll have to do more research on whether there are any coerulea forms.

Why does this ridiculous, stupid, coke-addled nepo-baby of a nepo-baby brat have any say in U.S. foreign policy? What foolish, horrifying times we live in.

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.

That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

A piece of news that I have doctored into a meme. The news piece is that the DNC will not release its report on what went wrong in the 24 election. And I have added dialog to the person in the picture that says " leftists should shut up. We are the adults in the room. Criticizing our party is against democracy!"

U.S. plans to stop recommending most childhood vaccines, defer to doctors
The plan, which is not finalized, suggests children get fewer shots and shifts to a model telling parents to consult doctors to make their own vaccine choices.

These blooms, yellow with just a hint of green, have been open for a couple months, so they've faded a bit...

this is a good reminder of how things that are shitty but have been accepted as normal and inevitable can actually turn out to be abnormal and evitable with some science, time, education and political will

Nobody works this hard for this long to cover up something this bad unless they are guilty.

Today, we're learning why DOJ didn't release the redacted files last March. Because the multitude of redactions exposes how much they're covering up.

If your house of worship is silent about the cruelty and the attacks on your neighbors by ICE, you’re at the wrong church, mosque, synagogue, temple, or gurdwara.
