We're not sure we've ever seen anything more beautiful than this: one of the first salmon to swim and spawn in the Klamath River above former Iron Gate Dam. Talk about a happy Friday!! 🙌🐟 Captured on video by Shane Anderson, Swiftwater Films

The Shasta people traditionally said "the people are coming" upon the return of the salmon. Two days ago—October 3rd—the first Chinook salmon in 60 years was recorded by camera passing the former location of Iron Gate Dam. The salmon are returning, and we welcome them home.

For 150 years, far-right demagogues have behaved in eerily consistent ways. Yet every time one emerges, we act as if we've never seen such a thing before, and we have no idea how to respond. My column on the startling lessons we can learn from history. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

There’s a rhyming Italian expression for saying “take it or leave it” that goes o mangi questa minestra o salti dalla finestra. It means “either eat this soup or throw yourself out the window”

I don’t care who you are — this conversation between Kamala Harris and Tim Walz is so relatable. They are us. #TheUnderdogCampaign

The most important thing to know about these polls is that you should ignore them. I don’t care if we are up by 10% - GOP state officials are going to try to steal this election, and we need to win by a margin that’s too big to overturn. Every vote matters.

Walz is a *chef’s kiss* pick for Native Americans. This guy picked White Earth Nation citizen Peggy Flanagan as his Lt. Gov., taught on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, was 1st Gov. to visit all 11 MN Tribes, & opened MN State-Tribal Relations & MMIP Offices. LET’S GO!!

This election is essentially: America’s Fun Aunt and America’s Fun Dad vs. A Convicted Felon and Your Weird Cousin

Donald, I do hope you'll reconsider meeting me on the debate stage. Because, as the saying goes, if you’ve got something to say, say it to my face.

📺 Fareed Zakaria on CNN delivered an outstanding recap of President Biden's legacy, highlighting him as one of the most underestimated presidents in United States history. We are gonna miss this guy for years to come. ♥

We released Season 3 during the strikes and couldn’t give the show its proper send off. Now, with Emmy’s voting open for seven more days, I wanted to share something I wrote to myself the day after we wrapped the final episode. Saying goodbye to Elora Danan. ❤️
