NEW: Senate Democrats REJECT funding for DHS, which will lead to shutdown of the agency. Keep in mind, ICE and CBP are still funded by supplemental money in the BBB, but it's harder to spend and will deplete those funds. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

According to multiple NYT sources, it wasn’t even military personnel at Fort Bliss that fired an anti-drone laser at alleged cartel drones. It was CBP who used the weapon on loan from DoD against a child’s party balloon they mistook for a drone. The Pentagon gave CBP an anti-aircraft weapon.

Yes, #BadBunny and his #halftime show were phenomenal. But what has made my day is seeing all the people from #Canada react. #Canadá 😂

Alright, just ordered a Kobo Libra Colour with case & Stylus. Finally making a big step away from Amazon & the Kindle ecosystem. No longer will I need to convert ePUB files to azw3. If stripping the DRM from my currently "owned" Kindle purchases is wrong, well, I'm not gonna be right.😎 #BookSky

Hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars have been spent on body cameras, sold as a revolution in transparency and accountability. Instead, police departments routinely refuse to release footage — even when officers kill. (Published 2023)

What's happened to three well-known incarcerated activists who supported a 2022 prison strike & were featured in an Oscar-nominated documentary about the troubled Alabama system? They've been moved to isolated cells with little contact with others. It's straight-up retaliation. No pay wall.

NW: The Alabama Solution (2025)

I finally watched #TheAlabamaSolution. I knew some things and I definitely knew there were issues…. But I’m having trouble not comparing it to the current #ice situation. I can’t help but see similarities with violent injustice and sharp contrasts in public outcry. We have a lot of work to do.

The horror!

I’ve realized that I kind of appreciate the people who didn’t #vote in the last election because they couldn’t decide. Listening to #maga bitch about this no tax on #overtime “reveal” is just so ridiculous. I distinctly remember sooo many of us spelling this out. The information was there.

It better NOT be #snowing right now in this SE #Georgia town 10 minutes from the FL border! It’s basically a #blizzard.

straight up Gestapo shit

I realized last night that I’m not hearing about Ukraine or Gaza or Sudan anymore. I’ve been so focused on the US that my algorithms have forgotten the world. That feels like its own kind of terrible.

I said this last time but their real position is “if you disagree with us we can kill you.”

AOC: "How rich is it that she is saying showing up to the scene of a protest with a legally owned weapon should be grounds for a person's death, execution at the hands of the state, by the same party and administration that praises Kyle Rittenhouse."

GEORGIA… 🔥

Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Keith Porter Jr. were murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed. The next could be you. What’s at stake isn’t just our democracy. It’s also your safety and security and that of your loved ones. This is personal — to every one of us.

Where are the people who were so emotional when they saw CK get shot? That was their whole defense. They actually saw it and it wasn’t because of his previous words and actions. I just watched a man get executed by ICE. RG was just the other day. Do they not see them? #fuckice #fuckmaga

"Americans are paying 96% of the cost of tariffs." What? No way!

Good morning #5amwritersclub! When it's cold, all I want to do is stay in bed. I'm considering just being awake a win right now. #writingcommunity

I’m trying to figure out what other admin tasks I need to complete before I move on to finalizing my worldbuilding… I think I’ve done them all 😳 I guess it’s time to iron out my modern fantasy world…? What is this place? How did I get here? #writingcommunity #5amwritersclub

Despite loving the first book, I remember not continuing in the series because I didnt think I would like Seb and Larkin as much as Taylor and Holt. I was wrong. They aren’t as funny, sure, but I think I adore them even more. #booksky #mmromance

I spent like half of 2025 in an unmotivated reading slump. In Nov I saw a post about this series and remembered how hilarious the first book was. I’m finally reading this second book and it just might be what my slump was begging for. I just love these characters so much! #currentread #booksky

Yoooo I finally finished my short story and got if formatted. It took absolutely forever, but tbf this single story has to: 1️⃣Introduce the multiverse. 2️⃣Introduce the gods and their chaos. 3️⃣Establish the creation of the first world in said multiverse. And that’s a big job! #writingcommunity

We’re finally far enough away from the holidays that I can resume being a productive writer. #5amwritersclub

I rarely brag about my mediocre parenting skills, but every single Christmas I pat myself on the back for never starting #ElfOnTheShelf

I’m obsessed with Magiford. Every series gives me a little more of it and the characters I love. Generally, I go for spicy romance, but these books are in my top favorite books and they’re sweeter than closed-door. I will never recommend these enough. #bookvember #booksky #magiford
