So, a little positivity because we can all use it. Here is my pupper when she was small meeting her best friend who lived across the fence. (She's the one in the pink collar)

Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members.

They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

Non-binary / Trans persons to no longer be allowed to leave or enter the US if passports do not list birth sex.

That information (passport) also gives ICE terrorists a list of non-binary & trans persons who have updated their passports.

That is interesting.
So far he has digitized 15 old Canadian government films from the 1920s and plans on adding more.

Yeah well, Donald Trump, current President of the United States is in the Epstein files for raping children.

Let them come.

First, I can relate. Second, no, it won't. You could literally be saving an elderly parent $10's of $1000's dollars because they are in the middle of giving banking information to a phone scammer and you will still be a 2nd class child.

It's why I prefer dogs.

Look, I've spent my fair share of time in drinking establishments and I can relate some pretty socially dysfunctional behaviors. There are generally some pretty easy but unspoken rules of the bartender / drinker relationship and they aren't this hard.

I should probably clarify, my interest is in your experiences in Moscow and of course, these skills you speak of. Not uhhh, the creepy DiCaprio dating history way.

You didn't agree with them, they now see what you're talking about. There is a difference.

FDI is dependent on many many things, some of those include the regulatory environment. Strong environmental policies don't deter investment but do result in lower profit / more expense.

Any time they start screaming about it, is usually because the government won't let them wholesale pollute.

Their complaints that Dems oppose the “rural hospital fund” are so hilarious.

Kind of like: “I’m going to burn down your house and give you a chocolate chip cookie instead.”

“That sounds terrible.”

“What you don’t like chocolate chip cookies!?”

Short Thread...

It's been a full week since DHS issued a press release claiming TEN CARS ambushed them—and have since:
•charged ZERO of those alleged 10 drivers
•arrested ZERO of those alleged 10 people
•filed ZERO reports of alleged property damage, &
•offered ZERO evidence of their claim

Yeah, it got lesser media attention due to the entire Bill Burr & others doing the comedy festival there. Also Halsey was there, which is a shame as well, I love her music.

Governor Greg Abbott has ordered the removal of all rainbow sidewalks in Texas.

As I said at the start of this, you don't build out this kind of infrastructure, nor do you fund it to this degree unless you plan to have significant, continuing use of it.

When they run out of visible targets, immigrants, unhoused, mental health sufferers, people of color, they will come for you.
