There should be no private or religious K-12 schools at all. None. And without an advanced degree, one should not be permitted to home school their kids. There definitely should be no tax deduction for private/religious school tuition or donations to private/religious schools.

Lucian K. Truscott says the media totally missed the story of Trump's visit to a gun store in South Carolina, which was this:

"He made a decision to stop at Palmetto State Armory in Summerville, South Carolina, because he knew that that specific gun store was where the racist shooter in Jacksonville, Florida bought the guns he used to kill three Black people at a Dollar General store in late August."

Delighted with this, the cover of my upcoming book: 'Our Accidental Universe'. It's about how astronomers often stumble over truth about the cosmos, covering everything from asteroid to aliens, and from the distant Universe to the clouds of Venus. Out in March, available now: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Our-Accidental-Universe-Discovery-Asteroids/dp/1911709186/

No one but Nazis and people comfortable with Nazis are using those platforms.

The problem is that the number of people who are either Nazis or Nazi appeasers is much bigger than most people realize. This goes back to the problem of the media being unwilling to accurately describe them as fascists because that would be "name calling" and "polarizing."

"Being an adult is whispering 'f&ck this' while doing it anyway."

She has arrived.

The finger pointing is useful when red state governors gloss over the public corruption within their states.

Texas tries to redirect attention away from the collusion with Putin.

One day, I'm going to put on a long white dress, and wander aimlessly through the town, never making eye contact.

"School choice" sounds great, but it's a euphemism for defunding public schools and funneling the money to private, for-profit schools that don't have to accept all students, are not accountable for their curricula, and can use your tax dollars for religious indoctrination. #GOPDebate

Olena Zelenska in an interview with CBS: It's not enough for the world to be aware of the violence of russians against Ukrainian children – criminals must be punished

"Victims of the violence committed by the russian military against Ukrainian children will begin to testify en masse when they see that the perpetrators are punished, and #Ukraine relies on the world's help in establishing justice in this matter" - First Lady Olena Zelenska

@bronakins Went to Walgreens and got a booster. They told me I had to go to CVS for a flu shot. Wouldn't take my insurance.

In a speech today in Tempe, #Arizona, President Biden is to say “there is something dangerous happening in America. There is an extremist movement that does not share the basic beliefs of our democracy. The MAGA Movement.”

Well, here we fuckin’ go again… I mean, good morning.

Also, this piece of trivia ... 😆

"In Stargate SG-1 and its spin-offs, Cheyenne Mountain houses "Stargate Command", a top-secret unit of the United States Air Force that uses the titular Stargate to explore other planets. In recognition of the series' close relationship with the real-life Air Force, there is now a broom closet in the real Cheyenne Mountain Complex called "Stargate Command"."

I challenged myself to photograph the smaller butterflies in the garden as they move fast and don't sit still for long.

This is one is a Painted Lady butterfly. It is one of the most widespread of all the butterfly species. It lives just about everywhere, especially meadows, parks, and gardens. Its range includes all of the United States Mexico, and most of Canada.
