It feels good to be back on the coast. Going back to work tomorrow, not so much.

I am so far behind at home after the first big floods in 17 years. Don’t get me wrong- I’m grateful to have a home and no damage. But my remaining potted Asian pears and apples are blooming already and I need to get them in the ground!

Every single one of the astronauts who went to the moon and back on Artemis II was educated at a public school.

Thinking of the teachers who poured into Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen tonight. You helped send a kid to the moon!

Whelp, I wasn’t quite past Joe’s sudden loss, but Dug was really lonely. Hence, a new dog potato. Meet Buddy Moon, a sort of Dug Jr bully/lab cross. Like Dug, he snores. Loves people, easy to train so far, but really young and probably a year of chewing to manage. Needs leash work. #rescuedogs

The story of our age is billionaire narcissist men who are widely known to be frauds or creeps within their industries but are allowed to destroy the world in plain sight because American media & business view rich confidently-speaking white men through an infinitely-forgiving lens of merit.

And we wasted hundreds of billions of dollars, but we can’t have Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, school lunches, SNAP assistance so working low income families can eat, public education, and more.

Chris Murphy: "He's not telling the truth. But if you accept even part of the Iranian statement, Donald Trump has agreed to give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz. That is extraordinary and cataclysmic for the world."

I’m sure everyone who has ever lived with a pathologic narcissist recognizes this behavior. Create a fantastical drama and then paint themselves into a corner, create an unbelievable fantastical Hail Mary pass to get themselves out.

Trump went from making genocidal threats against Iran to becoming business partners with Iran in 24 hours.

The guy is loonier than a shithouse rat.

I was on CBC-KW this morning to chat about #Artemis II and got a lovely view of the waning gibbous Moon on my way in to work afterward. We have such a pretty satellite 😍

BTW, did you know NASA has a Daily Moon Guide with Moon-viewing tips & info? science.nasa.gov/moon/daily-moon-guide/

just to be clear, everyone, when 8 pm EDT comes and goes, regardless of what does or does not happen, the president still threatened genocide and war crimes and we should still impeach, arrest, and try him
