If two detainees were the victims of the latest shooting, why is this the statement? Aside from the fact that Kristi Noem is a nefarious fascist

Given the current climate, highly recommend

I only learned today that we have a Rapture scheduled for later this week.

The Salem Witch Trials ended in 1692 on September 22.

There was always talk of a resemblance.

Currently playing on Puppy Dreams, Calming Music for Sleepy Snuggles Radio Pandora Station. Aural tranquilizer.

For all its both-siderism and normalizing of Trumpian evil & corruption, the NY Times is still being hit with a gigantic lawsuit. Moral of the story: losing your integrity won't save you.

Dogs allowed back on the beach today.

It needs to be said that by rebranding Charlie Kirk's views as moderate by both right wingers and liberal cowards resets the extremist views he held as normal and pushes the Overton window to the far right

Calling it now: almost all the coming crackdown on progressive groups will be focused on those that provide funding, resources, research, knowledge, or assistance of other kinds to Democratic candidates, voters, and institutions focused on winning the midterm elections. An authoritarian crackdown.

I'm glad we're heading into "spooky season" because everything feels extremely haunted right now.

the bottom patch on this ice agent, spotted outside broadview this morning, is for agilite. it’s an israeli military supply company that advertises “tools forged on israeli battlefields that give you an edge.”

They have never, ever expressed anything close to this level of pain and sympathy for school shooting victims.

Matthew 26:52

Banksy, London. Of course they'll remove it as fast as they can.

Even if the midterms can bring new awareness about the pervasive influence of AIPAC in our government, that would be good. Too many Americans are oblivious

Got onto BPR this morning to assure Boston area listeners that ICE is not "starting to" kidnap our immigrant neighbors. It's CONTINUING to do so, and ever more flagrantly and without respect for due process

So, Chicago, it's your turn now and man, I am so so sorry. Nobody should have to go through this. This is awful. This is fascism. Organize. Step up. Don't think other people will do it -- the might, maybe even they will, but they need you, too. Be like LA -- be sand in their gears. 9/

LA kept a small, peaceful, totally fucking irritating presence at the Federal buildings and LA showed up at the hotels where ICE was staying and made sure they didn't get any sleep. LA Unions got involved. LA limousine liberals got out of their fucking limousines and stood watch on corners. 7/

LA got on Signal and ICE-watch. LA's biggest non-profit advocacy groups like the LA Tenants Union widened their missions to incorporate saving the whole fucking city. LA showed up. LA filmed. LA *knew its rights* and handed out red-cards at every opportunity. 6/

There is a lot of misinformation on here. Please verify.

#FreeDC Mass march hitting the streets of DC now.

I see a lot of Cuddle Gatherings on Eventbrite. The organizers seem to be doing an excellent job, communicating expectations, boundaries, and consent. What they haven't addressed in any of the invitations I've seen is personal hygiene.

VERY sudden and late acts of aggression with the stub of a Yak Chew and King Moonracer stuffie.

Holy shit: Stateline spoke to nearly a dozen firefighters, agency staffers and contractors, who said that top officials assigned to the fire deployed the crews to a remote location under false pretenses so federal agents could check their immigration status. www.hcn.org/articles/fir...

It has come to my attention that I missed National Ginger Cat Appreciation Day yesterday and I DEEPLY apologize to my favorite ginger cat, @gonzo.bsky.social, always in my heart.

OKAY JUSTICE ALISON BURROUGHS🥳

Why do we not have a major motion picture bio of Alistair Crowley tgought

Have a good Labor Day - all who keep faith in the workers of America! #laborDay #celebration #laborunion #bluesky

Media outlets have staged a front page protest to highlight the killings of more than 200 journalists in 22 months.

The Guardian has today printed the names, and where possible, images, of all the media workers killed in Gaza, as part of an international day of action involving more than 150 media organisations. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

We’re only a few years removed from creatjng a vaccine to protect against a deadly airborne virus in a matter of months. Now, we have a scion fail son running the CDC into the ground not because it failed, but because its success conflicts with RFK Jr’s eugenicist ideology.

Anna has had excellent coverage of this developing case in which the Trump administration tried to use the holiday weekend to secretly and illegally deport children.

RFK Jr., using his usual wildly irresponsible methodologies, connects mass shootings and SSRIs. Perhaps he could use common sense and connect them with guns.

I had never heard the story of Rubén Salazar until I read Heather Cox Richardson's column today. Mad respect. ¡Presente!

Will there be a civil war theme song on the news channels? I will NEVER forget my horror at the coverage of Desert Storm in 1991, with the theme songs and flag scoreboards tracking how many planes we shot down

I miss the old brand #CDC

It's not good that I learned about this animated horror film about cats and that it's playing at the Salem Cinema and I'm kind of obsessed with seeing or not seeing it. It sounds deeply disturbing and I'm aLREADY haunted by it.

Here's some beauty. Enjoy.

Am I the only weirdo who pets bees?

The headlines tonight are beyond ludicrous. Everywhere is absolute madness. It's no wonder I'm taking refuge and reading about classical antiquity.

It doesn't matter what motive any shooter has. Why do we keep asking this stupid question? They had access to guns. "Why does everyone have access to guns" Is the only question we should be asking.

The Trump administration has expelled more than 8,100 people to places where they do not hold citizenship since January 20. interc.pt/3HIfZBS

On hold with Verizon forever. But hey, they offered to text me a password reset code to a landline ...that hasn't been in operation for at least three years.

People were pulled up to the ocean just watching the waves today. It was a perfect summer day.

Yea

I saw a trailer for a 1994 German animated horror movie about cats at the cinema last night and unfortunately looked it up and read about it. I want to tell you what it is, but I also kind of don't want you to get as disturbed as I have gotten. 🥹

Witch Tok is predicting the demise of You Know Who tomorrow. These are the same people who were very certain that Kamala Harris had the election in the bag, so take with all the grains of salt that you might have handy

Idly wondering why my left ear gets actual dirt in it sometimes since I am not a child who plays in the mud. My right ear is always fine. Hypochondriacs please weigh in with terrifying theories.
