Last year, Benin stiffled a coup preparation that had been clearly inspired and in contact with the Burkinabe junta elements and some Russians, so this today's revolt is not appearing out of this air.

Living in the Philadelphia area, Maryland flag crab bumper stickers are a common sight, so I made one for Maine using *their* state crustacean (yes, Maine has an official "state crustacean") and their infinitely superior 1901 flag design.

Meet the carrier crab, an animal that brings its defence wherever it goes. Its back legs are specially adapted to hold anything it can wedge between itself and danger: a bit of dead coral, seaweed, a broken shell. Sometimes, though, that shield is alive – like this jellyfish! 🛡️🪼👇

Striking animation showing the magnitude of glacier collapse since ca 1900 in the Alps! 🧊🔥

All the retreat you see here is caused by human activity, and it will only stop when the last cubic metre of ice has melted! 📈💧

Friends, help protect Chaco Canyon! Here’s what you can do:

- Call your members of Congress and urge them to sign onto the Chaco Cultural Heritage Area Protection Act!
- Call the Department of the Interior at 202-208-3100 and the White House at 202-456-1111 and tell them to protect Chaco Canyon!

Conspiracies Rule Everything Around Me
This one really is useful because you won’t see a more clear demonstration of one of the most damaging political phenomena of the era: the reactionary professional mind rejecting unacceptable reality, only able to process and comprehend it via something close to conspiracy theory.
Former Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz says Jewish students shouldn’t have smartphones until they finish high school — so they don’t see the “carnage” Israel and the U.S. have carried out in Gaza.

My pet reform to the White House press pool would be half the seats rotate to random citizens, a lottery or whatever. Questions alternate between randos and pros. Even if you get some real weirdos, that's America. But I don't doubt which group would produce more useful and newsworthy exchanges.

when we win we can do ideological recriminations to our hearts' content, or we can firmly shake hands and walk backwards to our foxholes, but only when we win.
