#muskrat

I saw a muskrat yesterday evening in our local river, chewing some stinging nettle leaves and then swimming away.
Originally introduced from North America for their fur, they have spread rapidly through Europe and are often seen as a problem (local wildlife, but mostly their burrowing activities damaging river banks and flood control systems), but I can't deny it looked kinda cute.

It happened in lots of places. Neighbourhoods of Detroit after 2008 that were no longer sustainable. No one lived there. The city couldn't service them.

So artists, counterculture people from all over America flocked to those neighborhoods and bought $5,000 houses, stayed off grid, built communities.

I think of that, when I read this about cybertrucks.

Will people spend $5,000 to get a #cybertruck and make it an art project, something counterculture? Yes. Full irony.

@tend2wobble Needs repeating often: #Muskrat quote-
“The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy” a confession straight from the mouth of the ASPD* Administration, an absolute disaster if you want a coherent, functioning government that actually serves (all of) the people, even the stupid ones, who may not realize they support fascism, but do nevertheless. Always remember DOGE it’s not about efficiency, but overthrow.

@lisagetspolitik The idea of getting rid of a bomb sniffing dog program by not feeding them? If this is an accurate report, #Muskrat just put his sanity on display for evaluation. In a rampage, he’s been axing programs with glee, an easy argument he’s gotten himself much too excited.

In 2015, I was defrauded by my mortgage holder. The bank took a large supplemental principal payment I made and attempted to apply the money to “future interest payments” instead. It took CFPB intervention to force the bank to backtrack on this and credit my money to my loan balance. #Muskrat and #DOGE aren’t out there saving taxpayer money: they are defunding the police. m.youtube.com/watch?v=q9EPR0LK

#MAGAmoron (trump) is insane in the literal sense of the word. His #syphilis ravaged brain has been further eroded by long Covid and, to top it off, a failed #muskrat neuralink implant, ordered by #pootie has caused him to lose all sense of reality. Meanwhile, muskrat, hillbilly and pootie are all desperately fighting for control of the MAGAmoron zombie carcass.
