Twitter isn’t a real place. Here to laugh at stupidity and vent about football mostly. I don’t take you seriously. I’m not giving Twitter access to my photos.

The House will pass a $12 billion bailout for farmers suffering from high fuel & fertilizer prices caused by the Iran War, expensive equipment & parts caused by tariffs, and lower sales prices for commodities due to trade disputes with China.

But the GOP is fighting communism!

The Heritage Foundation — the same think tank that wrote Project 2025 — just published a report arguing that competitive women's sports should be scaled back and replaced with "group fitness classes, dance, yoga, recreational intramurals, hiking clubs, and the like."
Their stated reason? Fertility. They argue elite women's athletics make women less interested in having children.
The masks are off.

People ask me this all the time, and it’s the right question.

Why would billionaire Vivek Ramaswamy, who has never done any public service (except DOGE, from which he was fired), moved his business and jobs to Texas, declares that Ohio isn’t the best state, won't even drive our roads, has an out-of-state area code, and thinks Ohioans are lazy and mediocre and envious of his riches, run to be Governor of Ohio?

To help everyday Ohioans? To protect our communities from his billionaire class and their big investments? To end the corruption? To lower the costs everyday Ohioans face as the big shots buy off the politicians and make out like bandits?

Of course not.

And why would a billionaire like Musk, with no ties to Ohio, support this guy and ads smearing his opponent?

To help everyday Ohioans? To protect our communities from his billionaire class? To lower costs?

Of course not.

It’s to keep selling Ohio and its assets off for parts to the billionaire class.

While we suffer the consequences of failing outcomes and higher costs.

This isn’t complicated, folks.

Meet Bruce Taylor, of Taylor Farms. This man makes huge contributions to Trump so his lettuce is never inspected. So far, this man has given us E. coli, and cyclospora.

He does NOT allow his lettuce pickers to take bathroom breaks.

Kroger brand lettuce is actually Taylor’s.

Climate change.

Canada’s boreal forest is far north.

Most parts of it only reach 64F (18C) averages in the heat of the summer.

Its density and climate also means it gets very little evaporation compared to its rainfall, and is subject to frost 9 months of the year, and heavy fog the rest of the time.

This kept this biome very humid, kept soil damp, and left most of the low level foliage coated in dew all day long.

Some parts of the forest even had thick levels of permafrost beneath the topsoil that on rare hot days would seep water back into the ecosystem.

Just as many wildfires started by lightning strike in previous decades as now.

The difference is they struggled to catch and spread in this damp environment.

Now extreme dry weather, record breaking heat, northern thaw, erode that protective moisture barrier, leaving the boreal forest vulnerable especially in the more southern parts.

Boreal forests previously went through this process naturally when an over density caused a drier environment you’d get high-intensity crown fires that were cyclical. Every 50-200 years depending on region.

Now we get them annually.

Boreal forest fires are much more severe than others too. The long history of cyclical burns means the soil contains charcoal, the thick multi-layer foliage adds fodder and causes the fire to spread quickly, and pine, spruce, and aspens are all some of the trees with both the most density and the best for wood burning.

It results in towering forest fires of immense heat and rapid spread.

These forests are denser than anything else in North America or Europe, and the current fire in Ontario alone, is the same square mileage as the entire state of Delaware.

From the time it ignited, to covering that size, took less than 20 hours.

While some in the US still think climate change is a hoax, we are all going to deal with the consequences of it, as we’ve turned the largest forest in the world into a tinder box, and fires in less than 0.01% of it drowns the entire continent in smoke.

@RonDeSantis Ha good point. Don’t agree with you an anything else.

[Laura Rozen @lrozen]

The abuse the ex wife of the Maine ICE agent details in NPR interview is horrifying, including a 2022 police report of throwing his 13 year old daughter through a coffee table, a voice mail from last year saying her throat should be cut, and pulling a gun on her in the shower. She questions if ICE runs even a basic background check on recruits.

Hey @JDVance you up?

Don't worry Canada. The people who swore we'd all be dead from the Covid vaxx by now are all forestry experts now.
