I was working on trails in my forest yesterday—the same thing 8 year old me could’ve done all day, but with breaks for fort building. I think when we capture that childlike joy we’re doing life right.

Looks like the Bigtooth Aspen we have here in the Adirondacks of Upstate New York!

This was LITERALLY last month. I feel like I'm losing my mind seeing rightwing posts over on Twitter tonight.

A U.S. Citizen Detained by ICE for Three Days Tells His Story A conversation with George Retes, an Army veteran swept up in a California raid

Here’s a story that’s becoming all too common: federal immigration agents using racial and ethnic profiling as a rationale for stopping, questioning and detaining U.S. citizens who they suspect are undocumented.

If this oleaginous haircut thinks local crime rates merit a federal military intervention, then he should be leading the armored column down to his home state of Louisiana, which is one of the worst in the nation.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

One of the central achievements of the Affordable Care Act was to *raise* the Medicaid eligibility threshold to 133% of the federal poverty level—because everyone understood that there are plenty of folks who couldn't otherwise afford health care even though they're just over that (arbitrary) line.

Redwood Materials launches energy storage business and its first target is AI data centers | TechCrunch Redwood Materials has launched a new business — taking old EV batteries to store energy and help power businesses.

In a Nevada desert, 805 retired EV batteries are powering a 2,000 GPU AI data center and forming the largest microgrid in North America.

Beyond the power it provides, this grid represents Redwood Materials' next evolution, and @kirstenkorosec.bsky.social‬ got a firsthand look.

That’s the thing: taxpayers subsidize employers who pay low wages and offer few benefits—this angle, rightly or wrongly, isn’t discussed enough.

You fight for a zygote, but cheer when a child is ripped from a mother‘s arms by ICE.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.

They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil.

It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men

ICE releases health worker arrested at airport despite living in the U.S. legally for 50 years Lewelyn Dixon had been arrested at the Seattle airport after a trip to her native Philippines in late February. She was released from ICE custody after three months.

One more for the "WTF" quota...

This lady has been legally in the U.S. for 50 years. She was detained by ICE in *February* when coming home from a trip to the Philippines and only just released last week.
