Most NJ/NY parents hated the Uncle Floyd show but we loved it. And we loved Floyd Vivino, aka Uncle Floyd. The show featured fan art every day, but I was too scared to send in a drawing. Yrs later I drew Floyd for a Dr Demento album, got to meet him and tell him how much I revered him. RIP legend.

If it hadn't been these seven, it would have been another seven. That's the little game the Dems play on their voters, EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
It's why trying to push the Dems leftward never results in pushing policy leftward.

Long past time, for anyone reading this feed that still thinks of those media outlets as anything other than "Fox²".
Neither if those rags publish anything but right-wing propaganda (yes, even when it seems to not be.)

In all seriousness I think it's time we stop expecting more from The Washington Post (a Bezos-owned publication that refused to endorse anyone by owner fiat) or The New York Times (with its documented desire to fan flames of transphobia) and instead recognize them as right wing propaganda rags.
Is the Washington Post just PragerU now?

Don't take the bait. Confront fascism however you can. Your enemy is not the stonethrower to your left, but the ICE agent abducting your neighbor.

jack asked if i would sketch up a poster to tell people in nearby neighborhoods about the partnership between flock and ring, and this is what i came up with. it can be printed on an 8.5x11 sheet of paper.
![YOUR RING CAMERA IS AN ICE AGENT
[a drawing of a ring camera with an ice agent dragging a person away in its field of vision]
"In October of 2025, Amazon's Ring announced its partnership with FLOCK, an A.I. surveillance group that freely shares its footage with ICE, the secret service, and the navy. Flock customers can use A.I. tools to sift through footage to assist in all manner of operations (like raids and deportations) without a warrant. Unplug Ring! Melt ICE! Protect your neighbors!

Wishcasting. Donald Trump isn't the source of your problems, and just removing him won't make your problems go away.
Even a doomed-to-fail impeachment effort offers Democrats some advantages. Remember: Democrats are in a content-creation war with the Trump regime.
There’s no reason an impeachment effort can’t be a kaleidoscopic panoply of Trumpian misdeeds presented to the public. trib.al/RMEYHUM
