Just curious as to how many times normal average people have been indicted and arrested on felony counts... not even convicted, just arrested.

I'm curious how many of y'all have experienced that humiliation. I'm betting that most people have either never been arrested for a felony.

Please boost for better results...

We all owe Senate Democrats a big debt of gratitude.

"I kind of wish America’s elite liberal institutions would be elite liberal institutions, because they seem to spend a lot of time helping bad actors thrive. Harvard and Yale, to take two examples, have a lot to answer for. (Vivek and DeSantis and J.D. Vance and Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz and so many of the worst people in public life these days.)"

Big amen. And all those ivy-league schools: all north of Richmond.

I was slowly driving down Mid-Pines Road in Raleigh which is a popular birding spot when I noticed this red shouldered hawk perched on the fence post.

It was so still I almost thought it was a decoy lol. I pulled off to the side of the road and took several pictures. This was the best one, so I call it the perfect pose.

The Trump booking photo heard around the world is more than a first for American presidents. It now represents the Republican Party.

It's This Week in Barrel Scraping and man do we need a break from the serious stories today.

Our columnist Alyssa Steinsiek writes about Alice Cooper and Carlos Santana, why aging has-beens keep running their mouths about transgender kids, and how all the actually relevant singers are on the side of team good guys. #trans #news #entertainment #TWIBS

This is a friend appreciation message. If we're friends, I appreciate you. If we're not friends yet, I'll appreciate you. If we used to be friends, I appreciated you as a friend, and appreciate you've moved on. If we were never friends, I appreciate that, too.

I just want to let my friends know I appreciate you.

As you think about whether or not to help get Democrats elected or to just let whatever happens happen, please keep in mind that ALL of the Republican nominees publicly called climate change a hoax the other night and today the entire town of Maryville, Louisiana is being evacuated because of #wildfires

Man is in the forest.

Here are a couple of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), a doe and her fawn, that I saw this morning during our walk.

I will continue to expose Leave Our Kids Alone as the hate group that they are. They can keep assaulting me, they can keep preventing me from filming, they can keep threatening to cut my head off, they can keep calling for me to be lynched, and mainstream media can keep lionizing them. I won’t stop.

“What an astonishing thing a book is… one glance at it & you’re inside the mind of another person, maybe somebody dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, an author is speaking clearly & silently inside your head, directly to you.

Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people who never knew each other, citizens of distant epochs. #Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic.”

- Carl Sagan
