Tell your family, your friends, your social media accounts, your colleagues, your unions and your managers. Tell your elected officials. Tell them this is not okay. I know it feels as though there's so much shit, and nothing is happening, but what we're seeing is not inevitable. People are acting. You can help. Start by talking about it. Find your local activists.

Not talking about it because no one wants to argue about politics, looks the same as quiet acceptance, even if you do so in despair.

It's really bad. Trump has literally posted "He who saves his Country breaks no Laws". That's King shit. It's a 5 alarm fire.

Don't just reblog. Think of a friend. Find 5 things in the list above that will directly affect them (tariffs, insulin, another potential pandemic, dangerous reduction in the staff who take care of the government's nuclear assets....). Gather your evidence. Then call you friend. Give them the above list. Ask them to do the same.

Consumer sentiment matters. Republicans WILL bend if enough people start being loud about their disapproval. Find your local activists and be part of saving what remains. If you don't do anything else yet at least check out Mark Elias's Democracy Docket for updates on where the legal stuff is at.

hope “cheaper eggs and gas” was worth it.

EDIT: i removed the “trump refused to swear on the bible” point because it was being taken as me being an offended christian. i’m not christian, im agnostic. the reason i included it in the first place is because he’s the first president in history to ever refuse to swear on ANYTHING. meanwhile his “conservative christian” followers had no issue with this, and decided to continue to scramble for excuses instead of admitting he may not be as religious as he claims he is. i figured taking that point out entirely is probably better than filling this with an explanation in the middle of the other important issues.

would be a shame if people reblogged this, wouldn’t it?

I was walking on a rather remote beach when I came upon this Whip eel drying up in the sun. These are intertidal eels that can actually handle themselves out of water for a bit, but it’s not normal for them to be fully exposed in direct sunlight like this. The tide was at least six hours from coming in and I felt like this eel was in distress, so I made the decision to dig him out and return to the ocean. His body was too delicate to be simply pulled from the hole without injury, so I got to digging.

This endeavor took about 40 minutes as the eel was quite long and difficult to excavate. Also had to continually refill my temporary eel pond to keep him from drying out entirely while I worked.

If you are an eel aficionado like myself, please enjoy this silly little video of the relocation process set to some jaunty royalty-free disco music.

I want to always be like the guy who joined in on the joke. how delightful all around.

I think a lot about how, if the glorious violent revolution happens, every kid with significant medical needs in a hospital where power gets cut will die.

You can decide you're willing to sacrifice your own life, but you don't get to tell everybody else on the planet that they're acceptable collateral damage.
