Some unedited pics from #montereybayaquarium and just around #Monterey area yesterday and today. Better edits/crops go up on my Instagram posts sometimes. Also video of the octopus is on my stories right now, omg I love octopuses so much 😭😭
We've allowed right-wing religious organizations to become massive, untaxed, unregulated political slush funds for destroying democracy here and around the world, and the "good guys" have no interest in trying to stop it because something something pearl clutching free speech religious rights white supremacy something something.
Attorneys. We speak to fams about death, when someone is the survivor. As the survivor, I will state: it is overrated. Very frustrated & depressed tonight. I have sufficient money to pay for assistance for what I need. However, I cannot get workmen to even return my calls. Built this house in 2012. Been 2 years, cannot get a floor vent replaced in my wood floor. I will not bother the stepkids to put up a blind, having previously asked, and been ignored or forgotten. Just whining. Frustration.
Alvin Bragg didn’t break the law; Donald J. Trump did. Now, he’s being held accountable.
A “politically motivated” indictment?
BULLSHIT.

I was over at the state park a few days ago looking for the Iris flowers where I saw them last year, but there were only bits of the green stem breaking through the soil. So I hope to see them soon on my next hiking day. #PhotoPainting from my original photograph

tRump announces plan to address the nation at 8.15pm from Mar-a-Lago on TUESDAY - just hours after his arrest in NYC.
𝐌𝐒𝐌, I implore you. Do not give this man a spotlight to spout his bs. Ignore his antics. https://flip.it/_wi0Ok
So, as @chancerydaily points out, legacy blue checks who don't want the blue checks are currently stuck with the blue checks and Musk is implying they may be paying.
And the only way to hide the blue check is if you actually do pay, where you will soon get an option to hide the fact that you pay.
This truly is the dumbest timeline.
Look at this bullshit from Ted Cruz. Ted is an attorney who graduated from both Princeton University and Harvard Law School. He knows damn well that his claims about the Trump indictment are complete nonsense. Why? Because he hasn't seen the indictment! He doesn't know anything about the charges or underlying evidence! So how can he possibly justify these assertions? Ted is a pandering liar who is intentionally gassing up the ignorant Republican base.

@FantasticalEconomics @DemocracyMattersALot yup. This is a feature, not a bug, and entirely deliberate.
It’s significantly easier to keep Red States Red if their youth don’t come into contact with those pesky Liberals, and grow up to be Fox News addicted angry morons.

Republicans during Trump impeachment: “If Trump committed crimes, it should be left to the courts to decide.”
Republicans today: “No, wait, not like that!”

Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)

Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
