The flooding up here in northwestern Washington State, USA is pretty awful but it's all worth it to hear national news anchors mispronounce the name of the Skagit river. (They say "Skaggit," which is the same mistake I made the first time I saw it. The "a" is short, the "g" is soft.)

I flagged this in April and have been howling it into the void. Trump wants Black & Latino incarcerated U.S. citizens sent to CECOT in El Salvador, Congo, South Sudan.

🚨 ICE disappeared a woman on Wednesday night. She was grabbed by men in plainclothes and taken to an unidentified location. ICE is refusing to say where she is being held. It’s 72 hours later and not even a dedicated team of lawyers can find her. This is WRONG. We can’t let this be the new norm.

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy ...I want to believe, and I want to hear this band <3

It is critical that, if you are a US citizen, you check your voter registration every so often. I check mine every two weeks in the lead-up to an election, because the GOP is very sneaky about removing people with little fanfare. Go here: vote.gov/register/ to check. I'm good. For now.

I'd been online for a few years when the Web was introduced and still think of the Web and the internet as different things

Do not do *anything* related to voter registration on any 3rd party sites, especially any PACs. Always start with vote.gov or vote.org to check or update your registration status, or register to vote.

Fellow US-Americans: Check your registration here, Some states have purged their voter rolls and you may have to re-register. www.usa.gov/register-to-...
