Rather than deploy the TX National Guard to invade another state, maybe use their vaunted skills to find the rest of the missing from the flood this summer.

Elbows up, Chicago! (I think Canada will let us borrow that for a bit, under the circumstances.) They can soak their trousers and do without a sammy, if they want to oppress our town. #Resist

Just posting this. Everyone knows why.

Can we send him with a list? Just a short one...

We all need to listen up!

Torturing babies. Nothing but terrorists. This pig should be in prison for all eternity.

Remember when school lockdowns were for armed, terrorists? Still true. #ICEterrorists

For those who still believe that "the military" will not abandon us: the military is not a unitary force, and it exists to carry out political goals, not to protect citizens. The police exist to protect commercial property. Citizens must come together to aid one another. We are our hope for a future

Abandon the "bright line" notion. There is no one red line, over which someone must cross, and after which, the forces for good will be unleashed in a mighty torrent of salvation. That is for movies. History teaches us that reality finds millions of people making inroads, one at a time. #Resist

Journalism 101: It is important to ask good follow-up questions.

A comedic talent.

Hollywood would have turned this down as too stupid: The orange-faced, diapered, dim despot.The Mengele-adjacent who is not a doctor and take away meds so the experiments in death are "in the wild."The Goebbels who looks like a toe and talks like a cartoon villain. Yet many Americans voted for it.

Yes, indeed.

This is so hard.

The people of Gaza are not the ones who should rise up against the land-grab, money-grab, colonialism in the guise of a real estate swindle, that the MSM has the nerve to call a "peace plan." Every human on earth must react with total revulsion to the threat. Bombed out and starved is not peace.

Could you cover his endless nonsense spew half as much as Biden's occasional stutter?

It is time for the UN to move its headquarters. The US is now an inappropriate location. No center of authoritarianism can properly host a world body that needs to focus more on human rights and the environment and less on appeasing a tyrannical toddler.

Just saw a Guardian headline declaring that horribly wounded Gazans are "toughing it out." No. They are not. Gazans are suffering and dying without the most basic medical care. They are in wrenching agony to their last ragged breath because the US, et al, will not act to save them. UN must act now.

The BBC really stuck their foot in it today. Diplomats walked out en masse--diplomats, known for tolerating a lot of baloney. So the BBC saw fit to play a long clip of the war criminal currently perpetrating the Gaza genocide. Because... no, really, BBC, WTH was that all about? Be ashamed, BBC.

Incumbency reduced to recumbency.

She has it:

Good morning 🐶

I just read a snarky review of Eddie Murphy's acting. No one could deny the silliness of some of his roles, but on the other hand, if you have seen "Mr. Church" (2016), you will know what a truly accomplished actor he is. British actors know it's a job. American actors are stuck in "celebrity."

All the help I can get...

To argue that acetaminophen is dangerous to fetal development on weak data is irresponsible. To say that pregnant women should be forced to "tough it out," when faced with pain or fever is reprehensible from a man so feeble that he cannot bear the brutal sting of comedy. He's a sick joke indeed.

For the win.

Amy Coney Barrett has a new book out. It's called "Listen to the Law." Oh, what might have been, or would yet be if, indeed, she had.

Then there was the time...

Come on, Chicago! Remember how you kick out organized crime. #ChicagoICE

Begging the indulgence of the C students in the media here: Please stop using "crackdown" when what you mean is "repression." The US SS is kidnapping and trafficking. Employers are surveilling and abusing employers for exercising their 1stA rights. Grasp the import of this moment. And write!

Real Patriotism isn't about flags. Patriotism is loving your country enough to educate its children, care for the poor, and ensure a healthy environment for all. Patriotism includes everyone, not just a select few.👍

Just got trolled by a person who wanted to pick at a comment I made criticizing the "both sides" logical fallacy employed by Barak Obama. It was a rotten framing he chose. But infighting will demolish our chances of breaking down the fascist structures currently under expedited construction.

Ever wise.

The Guardian is reporting that the prosecutor in the Robinson case said he was "becoming more pro-gay." What does such a thing even mean? A) I am coming to believe that gay people are human; B) This leads me to feel that gays are entitled to human rights; C) We shouldn't kill them with stones.

BBC, you're killing me! 🤦 They are soft-soaping the state visit of a mentally-compromised criminal and hailing it as a triumph. Additionally, they are cooing over the presence of tech oligarch-exploiters and getting a little overheated about the Essex data center for amplifying exploitation. WTH?🤦

He will be sorely missed, less for his acting than for his activism, especially on behalf of the environment.

😹😹😹🥺

Every day, we need to remind each other of that

“Stay in your cars! Tell everyone to stay in your houses.” Illinois state senator Karina Villa out in the street warning folks about ICE

Well, there's that...

There has been a lynching at Delta State University. The "authorities" are suspecting no foul play. A young Black man was found dead. In a tree. Give me a -- break. No one buys that. Support each other. Every American owes each other Eyes Wide Open. Someone saw something. Speak the Truth. #TreyReed

If you needed a graphic to explain how crass the current white house residents are, the photo of the K&Q of the UK and the village idiots of the US hits the mark with a satisfying "smack." Eschewing all custom, Melania is in an obnoxious red dress (snicker) and dump's jacket is unbuttoned. 🤦#noclass

Good morning Blueskyers. Have a most splendid day.

There can be no excuse for murder on the high seas. Gunning down non-combatant vessels in international waters is, and has always been the lowest form of nautical behavior. The regime is attempting to gin up a war with Venezuela. All America must rise and resist them. #Resist #NoWar

I bought a signed copy of a @scalzi.com book for an ardent fan of Scalzi's work. Subterranean Press did not disappoint! The book was not thrown into a giant box to crash around as one well-known company does. It was enclosed, bubble-wrapped, placed on foam and surrounded in packing beans. Perfect.

Truth.
