Fellow Los Angelinos? It's my goal this year to be able to adopt a cat, but I'm still not in a place where I can yet, otherwise I'd snatch this beauty up.
A neighbor was taken to a care facility, and her little tortoiseshell kitty was left behind. I can't take her in but I've been feeding her and giving her water every day. No one in the neighbor's family can take her in. Is there anyone in the Inland Empire area that could foster or adopt her?

Rest in power to Keith Porter who was murdered by an ICE agent in Los Angeles.
It’s terrible that his name is just now being circulated, but now that it is, continue to say his name.

Advocates want legal action after man shot and killed by off-duty ICE agent in Northridge
Advocates argue that the off-duty ICE agent wasn't trained for the situation and should have called police and waited for them to arrive.

Also, along with Clue: the Movie and Deep Space Nine, MASH is on my wishlist of Big Dream Projects if anyone ever decided to commission audio description for it.
I'm also annoyed that both of the physical media releases of the complete series of MASH have serious problems that make me not want to collect them, but I guess I should just get one of them anyway, to be safe.

When people complain that "you couldn't make this show/film today," this is the kind of thing they *should* mean. An anti-war sitcom that lasted for 11 years, and was accepted and enjoyed even by my conservative Christian parents. >>
MASH is one of the greatest shows ever made. It centers a group of highly skilled people who are scared to be there, who hate the war that is happening there, and who will do their damnedest to help every single person they can for so long as they're suck there.
i cannot tell you how often i think back to MASH when writing. that ability to walk the line between humor and the darkest of humanity, yet never truly cross over into making light of it OR hopelessness--even though it toys with those things, too--is the line i strive for

In response to the murder of Renee Good, every U.S. state can and must pass a version of the Illinois Bivens Act, allowing anyone to sue a person who violates constitutional rights during civil immigration enforcement.

I honestly don’t think there’s a single figure in American history who has fundamentally shifted the way I understand the world I live in more radically than Fred Hampton. once you know the story you can’t un-know it and you see it repeated everywhere
The FEDS drugged and shot Fred Hampton in bed.
Philly cops blew up a building in the 1980s and most people don't even know the MOVE bombing happened.
I think you're downplaying how normalized US death is.

If the DEA had killed 80 innocent Americans in the course of apprehending one drug dealer, there would be riots. But we are so ghoulishly indifferent to the lives and humanity of people abroad that it's barely even part of the conversation.

Think of it this way: we need people who are dedicated primary voters in 2026, 2032, 2036 that will, insistently and implacably, tell every Democrat running for office “I want ICE and DHS folks in jail for their crimes, I want truth commissions. Yes, even today.”
