Same weird forester/forest ecologist/occasional essayist you knew from Twitter. Just a big damn squirrel specializing in regenerative forestry practices and encouraging old growth character

Known by some as "Gandalf" and "That God Damned Tree Wizard"

Be forewarned, I am deeply unserious about a great many things.

I thought I saw his face at the end and even went back and paused to look but then didn't see anything so assumed I had imagined it! 😅

It strikes me as a subtle 'Far Beyond the Stars' homage too. #StarfleetAcademy

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

I do want to shout-out my fellow sociologists, who have collectively created a discipline so woke that not a single one of our introductory textbooks can make it past Florida's censors.

Great work everyone.

They can’t build a cabin because of staffing. That’s on Trump. They’re also busy taking down signs about Indigenous people and Black history all over the country. This totally tracks.
The cabin would have been part of the Forest Service’s biggest public-use cabin expansion plan in 50 years, which plans to bring around 25 new cabins to the Chugach and Tongass National Forests, including four in Juneau.
US Forest Service cancels plan to build Herbert Glacier cabin in Juneau
Officials say it’s due to staff capacity and challenges of the site, not nearby mining interests.

This is Maria, a 6-year-old detained by ICE last year.

She began to unravel soon after arriving at a detention center in Texas, wetting the bed after years without accidents, crying through the night and begging to breastfeed again.

Most of all, she wanted to be reunited with her cat, Milo. 1/

It always feels like the end of an era when a rat over 3 years old passes. I'm so grateful she lived such a long, spirited life. She was so sweet and gave tiny kisses and took care of the other rats. I had her since she was like 4 or 5 weeks old.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

New at The Watch:

I dug into archival witness accounts of the British siege of Boston prior to the American Revolution.

They are remarkably similar to what we're seeing in Minneapolis.

Two cities under siege
Remarkably similar scenes from Boston and Minneapolis, 260 years apart, show a federal government betraying its founding principles.

Minneapolis has real Boston 1775 vibes lately. No surprise that John Adams—a moderate farmer and lawyer, yet the principal agitator for independence—was radicalized against the English crown by its Eye of Sauron-like brutality against his city.
If you see what ICE is doing to my city and you’re still protecting it, you are the enemy and we will not forgive or forget you.

If I was a Democratic politician I would consider that the thousands of brave patriots in this city are America’s most visible and hardened cohort of anti-Trump resisters, and if you tell them you’re going to stand with ICE, they will never care about anything else you ever do again
