LRT If you're a neverBiden or whatever 3rd party rebel, consider that under the Biden admin, renewable energy has become the second highest energy source in the US due to Biden's policies and efforts to push renewable energy. www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/f...

I mean, it's nothing compared to TikTok..but when a normie Christian church in Salem, Oregon is setting aside a Sunday afternoon to talk about Project 2025, it's worth noting.

A local church here in Salem, Oregon just contacted me and asked me to give a presentation on Project 2025. This is why the Trump campaign and the GOP is trying so hard to distance itself from this document produced by people in the vanguard of their movement.

On Chris Hayes podcast with Jamelle Bouie they talked about a possible reason for optimism: Project 2025 seems to have deeply penetrated TikTok. Anecdotally, my 15 yr old mentioned to me all the counselors she works with at camp have been talking about it and what rights they’re worried about losing

Can I say how AMAZING it is to write for #Pathfinder2e alchemists now.

I thought it said "hot bodies" and couldn't fathom the attempt at inclusiveness.

Yes my choice of Amiri meditating on the cover is explained in the product. Let's just say she needs a hobby after Recent Events™.

Texas has been under GOP control for 25 years. Every single statewide office held by Republicans. Texas ranks last in quality of life, worst in health insurance. Power goes out often; people die of heat or cold. The infant death rate is rising; women die giving birth. These are features, not bugs.

Anger grows as some senior facilities left without power for days: ‘It’s horrible what the state of Texas is doing’ | CNNwww.cnn.com As Tina Kitzmiller sat inside her sweltering apartment, windows and doors open in the hope of catching even the slightest breeze, she was frustrated and worried for her dog and her neighbors.

I can't stop thinking about how Trump would eliminate our free, public weather service, NOAA. It's an institution that goes back 53 years and protects Americans everyday with warnings for tornados, thunderstorms and more. That's the Project 2025 plan. www.theatlantic.com/science/arch...

The attempted assassination of Donald Trump does not erase the crimes that Trump himself has committed against American democracy, or the crimes he would commit if given the chance, and no one is obligated to pretend otherwise www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Something you may have missed yesterday - The Biden Administration is going to unveil a nationwide rent control proposal. It's going to be challenging to implement, and will require control of both chambers, but they're working on it. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

I bought a Google Nest thermostat a couple years ago. I could control it through the Nest app (by Google) on my Pixel (by Google). ~2 months ago the app kept reporting that the thermostat was off-line when it wasn't. I switch to iPhone and the Nest app stays connected to the thermostat.

When I contacted Google about the issue they said I should buy a new thermostat. They literally broke their own ecosystem to coax me into a purchase.

Jacksonville voted in a democratic mayor last year and yet not one word so far from Florida Dems or Duval Dems.

A reminder that in order to win in 2024 Trump needs to win EVERY toss up state: FL, GA, NV, & AZ (3 states he lost last time) - as well as wrestle 1 of 5 states from Biden: MI, WI, PA, NH, & VA (3 states that turned against him pre-insurrection and 2 that have NEVER voted for him.) Nearly impossible

Can my cat offer you a podcast in these difficult times.
