I haven't been able to be online much this weekend. #Icestorms. Power outages. Cell service outages.

It's a rainy grey day outside, so let's go back to last Saturday at the Kensington Park heron rookery.

I currently live in Michigan's 10th district, our US Rep is Republican John James, who refuses to hold a town hall, so the Dems are holding one instead.
Despite scheduling it for the same day and time as the Tesla Takedown protest today, all 644 seats are full.
Disclaimer: I do not think the Democratic party can get us out of this mess.
