Just a casual reminder that in 1861, 11 Senators and 3 Representatives were expelled from Congress for failing to recognize Lincoln’s election and supporting insurrection. — If we can expel George Santos, we can expel the insurrectionists.

"Billionaires are a menace to the rest of us: their sheer political size warps our public life. Disproportionately older, white & male, they function as unelected powers, a sort of freelance global aristocracy who are too often trying to reign over the rest of us. Some critics think that the supergiant tech corporations that have spawned so many modern billionaires operate in ways that resemble feudalism more than capitalism, & , certainly, plenty of billionaires operate like the lords of the Earth while campaigning to protect the economic inequality that made them so rich & makes so many others so poor. They use their power in arbitrary, reckless & often environmentally destructive ways."

@shuttersparks he's fascist scum. Whatever modest competencies he's ever had, he's far outside them today. All those companies would do better without him.

⬆️ So, Puritopians, you don’t want to vote for the lesser evil? The Lesser Evil is also the Greater Good.

All together now.

I wanted to show you these black skimmers (Rynchops niger) gathering on the beach., particularly for those of you who haven't seen this before - I know I hadn't. This photograph just shows a fraction of the birds in this group, and there were several groups on the beach. I've already posted a couple photos of these birds and am sure to post more. I find them fascinating.

"Possibly the best description of the Black Skimmer's bounding, head-down foraging style came from the great seabird biologist R. C. Murphy in 1936. He said they look like “unworldly… aerial beagles hot on the scent of aerial rabbits.”" - allaboutbirds.org
