Using Our Voice

Paul Krugman published an interview with Michael Mann this morning.  It contained the following words of wisdom:

“What do we need to do to turn back this assault on science and reason and democracy and everything that we might hold dear?” There are lots of specific things that we can do right now that we should be doing, but more generally, “what's the big thing we can do?” The big thing is reclaiming our politics, right? That means turning out and voting, voting for climate-forward, science-forward politicians. It means using our voice, in every way possible, to combat against this parallel universe that the Right has created in the podcast world. We talk about social media, and the weaponization of Twitter by Elon Musk.

So here's my image for the photo tax, a Lesser Goldfinch snacking on Gomphrena seeds.  The Gomphrena is getting long and leggy, but I'm so glad we left it for the seed-eaters.
