Believe me that as a long time climate activist I well know that there are a huge number of Americans on the left side of the aisle that despise us Democrats.

But, there is a huge difference between us and the GOP. In his campaign video released today, Trump says as president he will require every federal employee to pass an exam of questions to make sure they agree with his brand of conservatism, and if they don’t "pass" they will be fired.

Well, yeah. The “Twitter Files” served their propaganda purpose, and now Musk doesn’t want anybody to look closely at the facts, so, “time to move on”. I mean, this is very transparent, right? https://mashable.com/article/elon-musk-move-on-twitter-files

Climate scientists, every goddam day.

Having a masking section at a hospital is like having a peeing section in a pool. I remember what it was like, getting seated next to the smoking sections in restaurants, as well. We *know* this doesn't work.

Gerrymandering facilitates Fascism to take over Democracy.

TRADING AMERICAN LIVES FOR VOTES! LIKE IT'S ANYTHING NEW FOR THE GOP?

@copter_chief if everyone just left #ElonMusk might finally get the idea.

I won't go back.

Wow, the WSJ eviscerates Texas Republicans, calling them out for being morons: ‘What a mess': Texas Republicans flattened by the WSJ for botching new 'energy fiasco': Texas Republicans are trying fix the enormous inefficiencies caused by federal & state renewable subsidies with state subsidies that CAUSE MORE INEFFICIENCIES-: - Raw Story - Celebrating 19 Years of Independent Journalism

I finished the last of 6 ketamine treatments last Wednesday. I am so grateful for this experience. I feel so much better.

Each time, I smelled a specific scent that seemed completely familiar just when the ketamine started kicking in pretty hard. It was musky and heavy, but pleasant and not over powering. It had a slight undertone of medicine or hospital. Super curious about that.

I might be completely wrong about how it smelled because I was high as balls. I just know it was specific and consistent each time.
