We see these every spring in large numbers. They usually range from 1/2 inch to 1 inch in length (at least when they emerge into view). I don't know if this is a #DartFrog but we always look forward to their annual appearance.

It's disturbing that such thinking is still prevalent. More growth will get us nothing but more billionaires. Growth means more garbage for the the West to consume, and more habitat destruction planet wide - while doing nothing to help the vast & growing numbers who face food insecurity & homelessness.

Weaponizing the US Dollar | Michael Hudson search.app/f9poGD9FFGpJc34D8

#EconomicImperialismIn the post-war era the US has relied on its dual status as a military and economic superpower to effectively dominate world geopolitics. Trump's tariff diplomacy is a symptom of the US's declining ability to exert that control.
"US geoeconomic power relies on financial services, while Chinese power relies on manufacturing...
...The United States has deindustrialized, and its neoliberal privatization policies have loaded down the economy with an enormous overhead of debt service, health insurance costs and real estate costs. the FIRE sector (Finance, Insurance and Real Estates) has increased its share of reported GDP, but its income is not really for a “product” at all. It is a transfer payment from the production and consumption economy to the rentier sector. That makes America’s GDP much “emptier” than that of China and its socialized market economy. When the cost of credit and rents go up, so does GDP.
Money today is created on the computer. Any strong and self-sufficient nation or regional grouping can create its own money. They no longer need to base their money and debt on silver and gold bullion.
So I think that Trump is living in a past world – especially given the right-wing Republican “hard money” crowd pining for the old gold-exchange standard, insisting that government money creation is inherently inflationary (as if bank credit is not at all). I guess that’s what makes him a genius: He’s able to hold two opposing views at the same time, each with its own logic that contradicts his other view...
...The US was able to replace gold with U.S. government and private debt largely because it provided a platform for international payments. That seemed to make it “as good as gold” for international reserves.
This does not look like it’s going to be a permanent state of international affairs."
The transition from a unipolar to a multipolar world ordinarily be a good thing (the US has not been a good steward in its exercise of power). Alas, the concurrent ecological/ climate collapse is proceeding too rapidly - no time left for a new system to emerge.
The crisis of competence inherent in the emerging fascist world order guarantees none of these problems will be rationally addressed. Our task as survivors will be to pick up the pieces and help each other as best we can.

There's a continuing conflict on the left between those who advocate working within the Democratic Party and those who believe it's a waste of time and resources. Those in the former camp often cite the futility of 3rd Party activity (due to electoral college and other limitations).
Let's take a step back and reassess Duverger's Law & the idea that 3rd parties cannot succeed.
Its truth partially depends on the assumption that (D) & (R) are immutable categories that will exist forever.
This is historically false. There are periodic inflection points every century or so when existing political arrangements become so ossified they simply fail.
Such an inflection point occurred in the pre-Civil-War era as divisions around slavery became too deep to sustain a functioning republic. This allowed the new Republican Party to step in and replace the Whigs.
Another inflection point occurred after the Great Depression. In this case, the Dems were astute enough to seize the issue and run with it - revitalizing and extending its lifespan.
We see that there are two possible responses to a fundamental paradigm shift.
1) Man the citadels and guard against any change in the status quo.
2) Catch the wave and ride the tide sweeping into the future.
The Democrats have chosen the first option, despite considerable internal discontent.
My belief is that the US now confronts another historic inflection - equal in danger to the Civil War and the Great Depression.
In context this presents us with an unexpected opportunity: a realistic chance of defeating the devastating stranglehold of the institutional Dem Party.
This can be achieved by either overthrow or replacement. There are no other options that address the existential nature of the crisis.
Both replacement and takeover are options fraught with danger - actual physical danger.
Sufficient voting in primaries is critical to the replacement strategy, but it wouldn't work as a normal electoral operation. It would require an organized campaign of outside pressure to have even a remote chance. General strikes, withholding party donations, physical occupation of strategic influencers (like TV stations), feet on the ground.
If you're an advocate of revamping the existing Dem Party keep in mind it won't be a gradualist project - the donor class wins that kind of fight every time.
Instead you will need to mount a strong offensive against current leadership. This is fully as difficult as creating a new party ex nihilo.
It also risks damaging the electoral chances of normie dems. I suspect even AOC wouldn't go that route.

The economist Michael Hudson is one of the best practioners of political economy. He is firmly outside of the neoliberal consensus.
-“Today’s world economy is as good as it gets.” I think the United States, Europe, and the Near Eastern economic and political situation is, obviously, it’s unstable. And almost any specific forecast we make is likely to be wrong because there are so many variables at work and competing interests at play. But actually, this is what mathematicians call an optimum position. That may sound optimistic, and I’m never one to be optimistic, but an optimum position is technically one that, wherever you move, it’s going to be worse.
This is mathematically as good as it is. And that’s pretty much the situation you have today.-

Good use of shadow and light, with an almost retro-modernist Bruce Timm/Darwyn Cooke style.

There are #Nazis like #JoeChialo and #KarinPrien not just in #Germany, but also in the #USA. Let us honor our unbreakable friendship with this country and support it in its fight against its Nazis. Don’t forget, a #country and its #government are not the same thing! (Among other things, there is the press, which is thoroughly corrupt in Germany and courageous in the USA.)

CDU-Fördermittelaffäre in der Hauptstadt - Berlins Kultursenatorin ließ ihren »Rottweiler« auf Mitarbeiter los
Wer Politikverdrossenheit förden möchte, verhält sich einfach so wie Weimer (Buchhandlungspreis), Hagel (sexistisch, sexualisierender Blick auf 16-jährige Mädchen), oder wie die Berliner CDU in ihrer Fördermittelaffäre: ein Sumpf von CDU-Seilschaften.
Die Antikorruptionsbeauftragte meint, hier könne der "Eindruck von Vetternwirtschaft oder Korruption" entstehen.
Und was macht die CDU, außer es auszusitzen? Sie will, zusammen mit der SPD, das Informationsfreiheitsgesetz so zusammestutzen, dass all die Unterlagen, die erst ermöglichte hatten, die Fördermittelaffäre publik zu machen, künftig geheim bleiben würden.
Eine win-win-Situatikn, denn CDU wie SPD sind derart in Affären verstrickt, und die SPD derart am Abgrund, dass alle Mittel recht sind, um jedes Risiko der Aufdeckung in Zukunft zu minimieren.
