As a USAmerican, I want to apologize to the rest of the world for what our government is doing.
But also, please know that most of us didn't vote for this and don't want it and lots of us tried and are trying to stop it all but ... ffs.

*Vibrates with anxiety*
Just submitted my very first nonfiction book to a potential storybundle.
That involved:
Getting the notice it was possible this morning.
Editing the whole thing (mostly phrasing / typos).
Putting it into format.
Creating a cover.
Loathing the cover and redoing it much better.
Writing the fricking blurb.
Putting it all together.
Submitting it.
In...6 hours. Yikes.
Now to actually do some work.

"The likelihood that Mount Spurr, the closest active volcano to Anchorage, will erupt is increasing, with scientists now saying an eruption is “likely” within weeks or months.
During flights over the volcano on March 7 and 11, scientists with the Alaska Volcano Observatory “measured significantly elevated volcanic gas emissions” and saw what were described as newly reactivated gas vents at Mount Spurr, about 75 miles west of Anchorage."

Something tells me this is going to start happening a lot.
It can't be possible to do so many evil and crazy-making things and not have people start going off the deep end.
The #TeslaTakedown's "Sell your Tesla, dump the stock" focus seems to be working...
“77 percent of CoreWeave's revenue in 2024 was from its two largest customers, Microsoft being the largest and accounting for 62 percent”
“three suppliers accounted for 76 percent of purchases in 2024”

Too soon, #PeopleOnAMission, way, way too soon. (Strong #THX1138 vibe tho… but #yikes)
Elon Musk just unfollowed the most recent mother of his children after she complained that he was neglecting her and their child. He then immediately followed Trump's 17 year old granddaughter.
I think I know what dirt Putin has on Trump...
