I’m so proud of the people in my former home state of Ohio. Congratulations on doing the right thing.

Sitting in the oncology waiting room. Time for my annual check to make sure it’s still gone. I am *the only person* here with a mask on. WTH.

Great article and sitting at the helm are our billionaires who believe this supercharged tech will save them as they and their cronies blast into space.

"Another election night, another resounding victory for abortion rights in a red state. It is yet another confirmation that the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision has created a revolution in American politics, the scope of which is even today only dimly perceived in most national political debates."

"Literally preaching to the choir served them poorly when it came to properly understanding the state of American popular opinion. And by arguing for over 50 years that abortion is 'murder,' Republican politicians have zero room to try and sell a 'compromise' that might soften voter anger. If abortion is murder at 38 weeks, it’s murder at 16 weeks, and it’s murder at one week."

"By actually delivering what Republican politicians had long promised their voters, the Supreme Court ensured Republican electoral losses in the 2022 midterm elections, and the repercussions continue.

It must’ve been quite the shock to the theocrats in states like Kansas, Kentucky, and Montana to so handily lose the abortion issue at the ballot box."

#Dobbs revisited

#Abortion rights are set to be constitutionally enshrined in #Ohio in the fall

"The big news this morning comes out of #Ohio, “Voter opposition to the proposal was widespread, even spreading into traditionally #Republican territory... Fifty-seven percent of voters said nuh-uh. "

As a teen, let's say 50 years ago, my parents had a Time, Life or National Geo, with a pullout section on #ClimateChange (or global warming back then). It had world maps showing uninhabitable region predictions that now prove eerily accurate. I remember the green, livable part of N. America was Canada. That's probably their big miss, since that's on fire and on the way to being unlivable, too.

Trump’s goal is clear: Delay the trials until after the election, pull off an upset, then use the power of the White House to shut down the prosecutions or even pardon himself. We the voters must do our part to keep him from power.

A powerful explosion in the area where an optical mechanical plant is located in Moscow region. The plant also produces military equipment.

Zagorsk Optical and Mechanical Plant has been operating for 86 years. Its website reports that "the favorite sight of Secretary General Leonid Brezhnev" was produced there. The plant is part of the Rostech and is a leading developer and manufacturer of military optics. In 2022, they bragged about developing a new binocular for the Russian Navy.

Had a really nice lantana that this past winter proved its last leg 😕

How are your roses doing in this heat?

Sorry about the chicks. They're the best part of growing succulents for me.

Is the cactus bouncing back indoors?
