A nerd on a mission.
Today is that time of year we commemorate the first European to land in the Americas.
He was a colonizer and a spreader of Christianity.

Of course you know I'm talking about #leiferikson.

Happy #LeifEriksonDay everyone!

Meanwhile in "war-torn" Portland.

Ok so this was a week ago during Sun Day,
a day to celebrate how freakin' awesome clean energy is.

Tomorrow is Sun Day!
Sun Day is a day of action, celebrating the power of clean #renewableenergy.

Why should society embrace renewable energy and drop dirty fossil fuels?
Here's good ol' #georgewestinghouse with a succinct answer.

Happy birthday to #lewishowardlatimer, a son of slaves and a #civilwar veteran who worked with #Edison on the #lightbulb and with #alexandergrahambell on the #telephone!

It's the 60th anniversary of the #votingrightsact today!

Please take 5 minutes to tell lawmakers to advance the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act (JLVRAA) to restore protections against voter suppression.

Go to: naacp.org/.../tell-con....

Thank you so much!

Today, the #climateclock (climateclock.world) struck
4 YEARS
left in our global carbon budget to keep #globalwarming within 1.5°C (2.7°F).

Call the US #Congress @ (202) 224-3121 & demand #climateaction!

Happy (belated) b-day to the steam punk, neurodivergent, cash-strapped and vegetarian Serbian immigrant mad scientist hippie, #NikolaTesla who came to America only 4 cents but later defeated #ThomasEdison during the #warofthecurrents, ultimately shaping the electrical grid system we all use today.

The US federal budget bill may be voted on any minute now, after midnight D.C. time.

On the chopping block is the #InflationReductionAct, which we need to make US's #climate goals attainable.

The #climateclock says we have just over 4 yrs to keep global warming within 2.7 degrees Farenheit.

My poster was a BIG HIT at the April 5th #handsoff protest.

April fools!

Gil Scott-Heron never said that.

However,
it REALLY IS
Gil Scott-Heron's birthday,

and the revolution IS being televised on C-SPAN.

In honor of #InternationalWomen'sDay, here is my collage of #heroic #American #women of #history.

Reply who you recognize and who you think I should have included.

Included is the "Jailed for Freedom" door and padlock which you can learn about here: www.nps.gov/articles/000...

Happy birthday to the author of the #GrapesofWrath, #JohnSteinbeck!

A little contradictory to the quote I posted last week.

Reply whether you think power or fear corrupts.

A blank sheet of snow looked like a blank sheet of paper to me so, naturally, I used a branch to draw a Nerdy Birdy.

In honor of #BlackHistoryMonth,
a tribute to the father of #bluesmusic, #SonHouse
and the father of #countrymusic, #LesleyRiddle.

Both were 2 African Americans from the south that shaped #Americanmusic in the late 1920s, moved to #RochesterNY, and were re-discovered in the mid-1960s.

Happy Presidents' Day!

Okay so Lincoln never actually said this himself. Apparently Robert Green Ingersoll, "the Great Agnostic," said something similar when talking about Lincoln.

It just goes to show, like Lincoln once said, "Don't believe everything you read on the internet."

I've been thinking about this quote a lot.
