for me “doom scrolling” is actually just the pathological hunt for the first piece of news that indicates this whole unbearable moment is about to unravel

It’s a tricky one to grow! They don’t tolerate any transplanting so you gotta start from seed at the location. Use nail clippers to nick edge of seed to help germination, and order lupine soil inoculant from prairie moon to plant with it - species is super reliant on specific soil microbes.
Here's a few photos of the mature flowers from a couple years back. Most of this species are pink but this patch tends to produce a lot of quite purple ones too!

Lupinus villosus 'Lady Lupine' baby inflorescence in North Florida. The characteristic dense soft hairs seen here, called villi, give this species it's name. A very villous lupine!

Really great article providing overview of Trump pardoning notorious drug trafficker and then also working to make sure he’s not deported. I guess 360 tons of cocaine is the magic number to import into the U.S. if you want to avoid deportation
Phial? Phial Callings?
New: A comedian set up a fake ICE tip line as a joke. Then 100 calls flooded in: neighbors ratting on neighbors, a teacher reporting a kindergartener. Fans say the viral TikToks revealed deportation's "banality of evil." Conservatives say he should be in prison wapo.st/4kM4qbF
Nothing is surer to generate goodwill around the world than the US curating its very own state-sponsored 4chan board
Godspeed, my soon to be highly radioactive friend.
Attorney General Ken Paxton Takes Legal Action Against Houston-Based Antifa Organization Engaged in Doxing and the Commission of Terrorism AUSTIN - Attorney General Ken Paxton has initiated legal action against Screwston Anti-Fascist Committee ("Screwston"), an Antifa-affiliated unincorporated nonprofit association, for potentially violating Texas law. "Radical leftists have engaged in coordinated efforts to militantly attack our nation and undermine the rule of law. Screwston and related ted groups have illegally doxed Texans ans and encouraged violent terrorism against fellow citizens," said Attorney General Paxton. "These deranged traitors will face the full force of law. No stone will e left unturned, and no tool will be left unused." be The investigation aims to determine the exact nature of Screwston's involvement in unlawful activity, including aiding in the commission of terrorism and "doxing," in violation of Texas law. The organization is self- admittedly affiliated with Antifa, which has been designated by President Donald Trump as a terrorist organization. Additionally, reported members of Screwston affiliates recently participated in an armed assault on an Immigration and Customs Enforcement ("ICE") facility in Alvarado, Texas. Merchandise sold by the group promotes the death of ICE agents and encourages violence by mentally ill "transgender" individuals. As part of the investigation, Attorney General Paxton has issued a Request to Examine to Screwston, which is a legal demand for records and documents that will be used to identify the scope of legal violations committed by the organization.
Post from Screwston Antifascist Committee identifying a neo-Nazi in Houston
Texas AG Ken Paxton has announced legal action against the Houston area Screwston Antifascist Committee, alleging commission of terrorism and doxing. Their account has been quiet for some time, but this was one of their last posts — identifying a neo-Nazi.
It's funny how all these billionaires started buying up all the social media apps, newspapers, and television networks right as all these revelations were starting to come out.
Happy bday bro! ❤️
jaderemedy • 4h ago And now comes the most nauseating part of this whole goddamn mess: the hypocrisy. The same loud-mouthed idiots who spent years screaming about tyranny are suddenly dead fucking silent, or worse, cheering, now that it's their side doing it. "ThEy'Re cOminG fOr OuR gUnS!" "GoVerNMenT oVerReAch!" "ShAll nOt bE inFrinGeD!" All that chest-thumping bullshit evaporated the second armed federal agents started terrorizing people they don't like. Let me get this straight: a civilian gets shot dead by federal agents, and the only thing you brainless cunts can muster is "well, DHS says he had a gun"? THAT'S your red line? Guns are sacred when they're strapped to your waist, but magically become a death sentence when they're used as a post-hoc excuse by the government? Either the Second Amendment applies to everyone, or you never believed in it at all. Fucking pick one and own it. This is exactly what tyranny looks like, by the way. Not jackboots marching in formation, but armed agents roaming neighborhoods, stopping people, killing civilians, and then daring the public to question it. Tyranny is execution followed by a press release. Tyranny is labeling the dead a "threat" so the state doesn't have to explain why someone's life just ended in the street. Tyranny is demanding obedience while shredding due process and calling it order. And all you so-called "freedom lovers" are fucking fine with it, as long as it's brown people, immigrants, protesters, or anyone you've already dehumanized. Turns out "don't tread on me" actually meant "tread on them." You weren't afraid of tyranny. You were afraid of losing dominance. There's a difference, and this moment exposes it completely. "Just comply" isn't a principle. It's cowardice dressed up as common sense. It's the language of people who have already accepted that the state gets to decide who deserves rights and who doesn't. And once you make that deal, don't act shocked when the line moves, because it always fuckin…
Absolute banger of a comment on r/military:

Also no mention of the general strike that was part of this today.
Zero.
Corporate media doesn’t want you to know this was a general strike
It takes some deft timing to get a belt grip in between those blows, impressive stuff as usual from Ao.
if someone punches your neighbor and you go to protect them, that does not make you a protester. that makes you someone who protects your neighbor.
I saw a Scahill reference somewhere today and this exact article popped into my head. Ugh. Glad to not be alone in this very niche disgust that has been fermenting for 6 years.
Ive recently gotten into fancy-ish sardines. If you like spicy, definitely order yourself a tin of ten of these spicy Porthos ‘dines! They also sell them at World Market if that’s an option for you.
Please read this & speak out.
Understand how relatively modest US investments in health systems and commodities can stem an unspeakable burden of suffering.
yellow poster with drawings of the sailor moons. text says: TRANS PEOPLE EXISTING DOES LITERALLY NOTHING NEGATIVE TO YOUR LIVES, YOU CRYBABY WIMPS YOUR LIFE IS GETTING HARDER AND COSTLIER BECAUSE OF THE OLIGARGS, NOT TRANS PEOPLE
reminder:
So the plan is Don Jr. and Eric Trump corner the market to become the biggest drug cartel in the Western hemisphere.
CIA controls production, the US military kills the competition with Hellfire missiles, CBP controls drug routes into and out of the US, and ICE raids the local distributors?
Imo nobody should ever "hand it" to MTG. She's still a white supremacist, bigoted, extreme-right, transphobic piece of shit. She does NOT care about Palestinian lives, and she doesn't oppose Trump for any of the same reasons that I do. She needs to go the fuck away.
In DC, Trump officials celebrated the decimation of USAID with a sheet cake.
In South Sudan, USAID budget cuts closed a health clinic in the middle of a cholera outbreak.
Tor Top had to take his sick mother to the hospital, 8 hours away. She died on the way.

Lots of folks on reddit would enjoy these! r/SumoMemes is a better place to post though, as the r/Sumo mods are so random with what they delete or allow.
I always enjoy your posts when I see them - cheers!
Newly released emails show the FBI spent almost $1 million in overtime analyzing the Epstein files as part of an effort dubbed the “Special Redaction Project."
I have a partridge pea that is somehow still flowering. All the others have been dead for weeks or months, especially after we had temps in the 20s last week, but this one is like "nope, I'm good, let's do this".
He should be at the border? More like in a prison.
