That's all of them. But here's a bonus shot of an unidentified man who was wearing a Patriot Front shirt with a white face mask around his neck while wandering the crowd at Pride all day, as well as standing with neo-Nazis who unfurled a hate banner.
Here's my full report for @dailykos.

And here's the larger gallery of shots from the day's activities.

Correction: He is actually from Des Moines, WA (corrected by CdA police).

So Marjorie Taylor Greene, quite unsurprisingly, is claiming that evil government conspirators are sending hurricanes into rural red states like Georgia. She’s not the first to make such claims, nor will she be the last. Thread: 1/20

Weather-manipulation conspiracy theories have long been around, though they were mostly vague accusations with nothing to explain it. In the 1990s, they latched onto a scapegoat: the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program, based in Alaska. 2/20

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-freq…
HAARP is an antenna array located near Gakona that was originally operated as a research facility by the Air Force, built in 1990. It uses a high-frequency transmitter to excite a small portion of the ionosphere, seeking ways to use the ionosphere for communications. 3/20 Image

Was rooting around in my archives when I came across this. It's an instructive artifact of just how long the Christian nationalist/evangelical campaign has been demonizing and scapegoating the LGBTQ community.

It was a mailing from Jerry Falwell's Moral Majority in 1981. 1/4 Image
I liked to keep an eye on what Falwell was doing back then and signed up for his mailings. This one arrived in a plain brown envelope (of course) with a warning that it was for adult eyes only. 2/4

The whole mailing was meant to evoke recipients' moral disgust. My favorite part was the cutlines. Also, Jerry apparently didn't like it when they made fun of him. 3/4 Image

Idaho’s far-right extremists—first claiming that the hate-crime attack on the University of Utah women’s basketball team in Coeur d’Alene two weeks ago was a “hoax,” now saying it’s not a real crime—seem confused. So let me explain how the law got passed in Idaho in 1983. 1/49

This a tale of the wages of hate, by which I mean vicious, unrepentant bigotry intended to harm: How it terrorizes and toxifies whole communities, and how its practitioners behave stupidly, even when they think themselves to be smart. In the end, hate is stupid, but it hurts. 2/
The first sign of hate I saw in northern Idaho was the fliers. No one knew who was handing them out, but several came across my editor’s desk at the Sandpoint Daily Bee in the rural Panhandle in early 1979, brought in by a reporter on his rounds. 3/

Certainly it would be a way for Heather to avoid discussing all the far-right extremists she has aided and abetted. Like the “Patriots” who turned up in Coeur d’Alene in June 2021 to threaten and harass LGBTQ people.


The ugly scene at the lakeside park was directly due to Heather’s original work organizing it.

These were some of the “Patriots” who turned out.

I'm thrilled tonight because I finally managed to snag a recording of transient orcas for my collection of whale sounds, via the Whale Museum livestream at Lime Kiln Lighthouse. They're wildly different than resident orcas! Unfortunately, they don't appear on camera.
According to observers at the scene, these were probably the T49A pod, including the prodigious young male T49A1. More on them here from Maya's Legacy and @orcawild.

Here's a link to the Whale Museum's livestream, brought to you by the fine folks @TheWhaleMuseum, @WDFW, @WAStatePks, and FolksSJI.org.

This is unbelievably good news. Decades of work to return Toki to her home waters are finally reaching fruition.
local10.com/news/local/202…
Incidentally, I refuse to call her "Lolita," which was a stage name with lascivious connotations given to her by the Seaquarium's owners. She was only a calf when captured and was placed with a large male orca ("Hugo") who later killed himself. It was hoped they would mate.
Her longtime native name is Tokitae, though the Lummi Nation recently gave her the name Sk'alliCh'echtinault as part of the efforts to relocate her.
