I assure you - you don't know me, nor do you want to know me.
Congratulations, me! I've been diagnosed with a rare and difficult to treat complication to my injury! I now get to learn all about Complex Regional Pain Syndrome. It at least explains why my foot is a throbbing mass of constant pain.

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome. It sucks.

This is getting lost: For weeks Trump officials had the option to remove Abrego Garcia to Costa Rica, but refused to do so. Instead they kept trying to send him somewhere more dangerous. Costa Rica wasn't cruel and dehumanizing enough.

This is deeply sick conduct.

If you are lost in the weeds talking about this law or that, please remember:

MASKED FUCKING SECRET POLICE ARE KIDNAPPING PEOPLE WITHOUT WARRANTS OR DUE PROCESS ALL OVER YOUR FUCKING COUNTRY.

That's it. That's the ball-game.

You have no real law. You are property.

There is no counter-argument.

In late 2020 a Chinese man called Guan Heng travelled to Xinjiang with our BuzzFeed map of detention facilities to provide ground truth for our work - he provided the first corroborating evidence for many sites.

He escaped to the US - then ICE detained him.

Heng Guan is awaiting an immigration hearing on Monday that could lead to his removal from the U.S. and ultimately land him back in China, according to his lawyer and a New York-based activist group.

without birthright citizenship in the united states, you don't have a democracy and you don't have rule of law.

revoking birthright citizenship gives fascists free rein to purge the country of literally anyone they don't like. it opens the door to atrocities and mass murder. i am not exaggerating.

My eternal thanks to @sergacuna.bsky.social for his kindness and talent. I am so gobsmacked at this perfect portrait of Cass from GalaxyCon Columbus.

Can't wait to see you again!

Been going back and watching the Friday the 13th series. Just finished The Final Chapter (the 4th film). They're very 2.5 star material, with some stunts and effects pushing them to 3 or 3.5 out of 5 stars. I'm hoping things pick up once I get to revenant Jason, I've seen Jason Takes Manhattan. 1/2

I think a lot of people still aren't used to the idea of a federal government that lies openly, nakedly and as a matter of course.

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

Since I keep seeing this mistake:

There is no FBI, anymore.

There is no Department of Justice. There's no Supreme Court and there's no Congress and no Office of the President or anything even vaguely approaching a government.

There is only an ongoing criminal conspiracy that calls itself the U.S.

"The time would be easy to know, for then mankind would have become as the Great Old Ones; free and wild and beyond good and evil, with laws and morals thrown aside and all men shouting and killing and revelling in joy.

The hours do not go gently when confined to bed. Concentration is the first casualty of pain, joy at all things beyond the second. Music doesn’t soothe, the mind is too fragmented for radio dramas, for reading more than half a page. Not even an inch of good work can be done.

In the dark of the night, in the grip of pain, painkillers aren't helping, sleep will not come. Sweating bullets and I have work in the morning.

Had a great time handing out Halloween candy with my mother this evening. A lot of kids and parents were made happy, and we enjoyed every minute of it.

The criminals running the U.S. want:

-To keep the government shut down
-To have Social Security and the ACA fail
-To starve, strangle or kill anyone not them
-To use their country of slaves to enrich themselves endlessly

These are WIN conditions, stop acting like they're misunderstandings.

Stakes and torches, scimitars and bayonets
Scythes, pitchforks, a sickle with a sharpened edge
Swords and spades, and mallets that are made of lead
Anything at hand, anything that can
Help us to remove the head
Of that filthy rich
Fat son of a bitch
