last Saturday we packed a U-Haul with everything we own and drove from Seattle to Portland, and when we walked into our new home (we’re renting), it was immediately clear that squatters were living here. (1/?)

Why does your staff block calls from Montana taxpayers? 406-444-3111 is paid for by all Montana taxpayers, but according to your staff, if someone's calls are deemed "unproductive", their number is blocked. Is that done at your direction? What state policy allows this to happen?


My Montana friends... Please read this one.

Please read all 5 posts in this thread. @GovGianforte staff is blocking some phone calls from MT residents when they try to call his Helena office (406) 444-3111. My wife has been unable to get anyone in his office to answer the phone in his Helena office for over a month. 1/5

Bit of a long 🧵 but I promise, it is actually going somewhere, not just a rant on Trump's cabinet picks. But the rant part first: Marco Rubio (Sec of State) - More or less qualified, but has become a whipped dog, begging for his master's love, since 2016 1/15


A must-read thread.

A short thread on what refusal to comply can look like, with specifics, examples, and ideas for what the future may hold. Actually IDK if it's gonna be short, but it's gonna be specific, so read on if you're curious.

My oldest son got vaccinated and later was diagnosed with autism. My middle and youngest sons were vaccinated, and were not diagnosed with autism. The reason for this is that vaccines do not cause autism. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

When they offer school “choice” or health care “choice” or social security “choice” or Veterans “choice”- that’s privatization. You pay taxes, and instead of giving it back to you, Republicans give it to their rich CEO friends. Then they cut CEO taxes.

The audacity of it all... free Palestine movement asking President Biden and Vice President Harris to do some drastic things to protect them and their Palestinians from what Donald Trump will have in store for them. Lol. Yo, these people are bold as hell. Like seriously bold. Lol

If you can’t with cable news or billionaire owned Washington Post/NYT, you can always get reliable news with appropriate profanity for free. Woman-owned. Women-hosted. No bullshit. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…

It is a really jarring moment to be a historian. To know what might be coming is alarming. To realize that no one around you sees it or acknowledges it is a weird place to be in. Its like time traveling without time traveling. 1/8

Here’s 4 of the comets I’ve photographed over the last 4 years. We’ve been lucky to get a pretty cool comet every year! Neowise, Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF), Leonard, and C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS). The last one is available in print for the next few days at the link in my bio.

The guardrails are pretty thin these days.

I’m not discounting the possibility, but I’m also not convinced the military would do it. That’s an unlawful order, and while he can fire a whole lot of people in various agencies, he still can’t force the military to break the law.

Office life before the invention of AutoCAD and other drafting softwares. Prior to the release of AutoCAD in 1982, engineering drawings were all done by hand using different grade pencils, erasers, T-squares and set squares. Even after all the manual labor, if a change was…
