The report specifically names Maine Coast Memorial Hospital in Ellsworth and Northern Light A.R. Gould Hospital in Presque Isle (320,000 patients/year combined) but twelve other facilities across Maine are also at risk.

This parcel for sale is right behind the Devil's Churn lookout. Spent a summer in Cape Perpetua visited by 30+ strong elk herds at my site and marveling at the biodiversity.

A forest road and trail go through this area. Views of the coast are stunning. @altnps.bsky.social @altacadia.bsky.social

This parcel includes not only the Cummins Creek Trail but sections of the Oregon Coast Trail which follows the 360+ mile Oregon coast.

I've never done a full thru hike. Only sections. But we have the option on OUR public lands. Private owners end that. @altacadia.bsky.social @altnps.bsky.social

(And we know nobody asked us, but re: balancing the housing crisis, maybe find a way to regulate that Mainers purchasing a primary residence get priority and fair price over investors snapping up their third AirBnB property. Just a thought.)

160 years ago, emancipation was finally enforced in Texas and across the nation. In remembrance of our history as a country, and looking forward toward the work still to be done to ensure equal civil rights for all, happy Juneteenth! ✊🏿
On June 5, 1865, Black Union soldiers of the 25th Army Corps arrived in Galveston, spreading the news of freedom to the enslaved. On June 19, Gen. Granger issued Gen. Order 3, enforcing emancipation in Texas. 62 days until Slavery Remembrance Day. #HappyJuneteenth #CountdowntoSRD

Another gut wrenching sight. Drift Creek Wilderness in the crosshairs. Millions of acres (in green) potentially up for grabs.

Yes, the wilderness is not marked. But every watershed area around it is. The old growth forest here was surreal.

If you’re standing in solidarity with disabled & vulnerable people who’ve been cast aside for the last 5 years…thank you

Its not easy being the lone masker in 2025, but we see & appreciate you

So much coming at us that it's hard to understand and keep track of. This morning, I came across this discussion with Heather Cox Richardson that breaks it down, offering suggestions to move forward. Please pass it on to wherever your republican friends and family reside.

Critical to keep calling out his degeneracy as some publications have for nearly four decades: "Donald Trump made cavalier use of other people’s money, he deceived without hesitation, he required more and more borrowing to maintain the illusion of success, and he utterly lacked business judgment." 👇
Spy produced a major 1991 exposé titled "How Donald Trump Fooled the Media, Used the Media to Fool the Banks, Used the Banks to Fool the Bondholders, and Used the Bondholders to Pay For the Yachts and Mansions and Mistresses" in which we learn Chase and Citibank admitted they never audited Trump 5/x

Of all the "disqualifying" things he's done, a public announcement rescinding his oath of office is a pretty straightforward path to resignation or removal.

I keep searching for the word that best describes what's going on in America right now under the Trump-Musk Axis of Evil. So far the most applicable single word descriptor is this one: depravity. It reflects the moral disease afflicting both men. Each cruel, each acting out his singular pathology.

Trumps comment simply drives home his alienness. Standing against his degeneracy is standing with America. We don’t have masters. We don’t bow to tyrants. Americas civic tradition is complex, democratic, libertarian, raucous, conflicted. It abhors tyrants.

Measles requires 95% vaccination rates for herd immunity.

It has a 16.2% case fatality rate for unvaccinated children under 5 years and 24% for children under 9 months (who are unable to be vaccinated).

30% of the survivors experience severe complications like blindness, deafness, or encephalitis.
These are the vaccination rates of kindergartners by state. It takes 95% coverage of MMR vaccine to prevent measles outbreaks & most states are not achieving it. I fear that under the new administration rates will drop even further and we will start to see preventable illness, disability, and death
