We have this larger-than-usual California Poppy patch in our pasture this Spring. It’s pretty spectacular. (I know, I keep posting pics - but the patch keeps getting better🤷‍♂️) #PNW #Oregon #SpringFlowers #Flowers #FlowersOfMastodon #BloomScrolling

Wow👏 Massive props to #Hungary and the Hungarian people for rejecting both #fascism and Putanism in a decisive election that brings the country back into the Western European sphere from it’s 16 year-long illicit love affair with Russia. Finally, some good news‼️ Now, US voters take note. It IS possible to reclaim a country from the right-wing forces of evil. #EU #Europe

Iran strikes fully loaded oil tanker off Dubai coast as gas reaches $4 per gallon in US - U.S. gas prices jumped past an average of $4 a gallon for the first time since 2022 as fuel prices continue to soar worldwide. The last time U.S. drivers were collectively paying this much at the pump was nearly four years ago, following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. #IranWar #OilPrices #oil #gas #inflation #economy #RepublicansDidThis

Could the unfolding #PrivateCredit crises turn out to be worse for the #economy that the #IranWar⁉️ Private-credit funds, a $3 trillion market, face an exodus of cash due to concerns over tech sector loans and potential AI impact. Mark-to-market accounting, valuing assets at current prices, is amplifying pain in private credit by creating “fire sale” prices. Will the banks, who provide much of the funding for the private credit market, be the next to suffer? #banks #banking #Finance #investing

Big Green Party win, their first ever in a by-election, in Manchester, UK today. The constituency of Gorton and Denton is sending a female plumber to Parliament - she gave an awesome victory speech. Labour, the “New Labour” wing, took a dismal 3rd place. Hard to see how PM Sir Keir Starmer survives this humiliation in what was a solid Labour district. This is what happens when a traditionally left-leaning party turns against the progressives in their ranks. Centrist, neo-liberal #Democrats in the USA need to take a lesson. #UKPol #UKPolitics
