Is this just kind of like repeat it until you believe it yourself? Your boss pardoned everyone who assaulted law enforcement on January 6th. Ass!!!

By the way a military parade when we’re not celebrating a war victory is something a dude who never served would do.

The far right will, of course, treat the Paul Doyle case very differently from one where the accused is darker-skinned or foreign or both. The rest of us must not. That’s kind of the point.

Beautiful morning at Barvas Machair.😀🌞

Good to see the flowers coming through.😀🌷🌻

Wall Street is now mocking Trump with a 4 letter word. The word is TACO, as in Trump Always Chickens Out. It refers to his tendency to announce massive tariffs, causing the markets to plunge, only to back off days later, causing them to rise again. TACO is now an official investment strategy.

The final part of our dive into the French Army of #WWI is out. Thanks to @battleguidevt.bsky.social and @historian1914.bsky.social for the opportunity. I hope we made a dent in the Anglophone world's understanding of French #history, making it more than a footnote. not-so-quiet.com/supporters/a...
