I do not want to become numb to this. I will try not to watch because I believe the reports.
I will be another voice to say, I have watched the video and you do not need to watch it unless you doubt what is being said.
There is no ambiguity.
Agents dogpile a person, he is on the ground, one of them starts clubbing with a pistol and then fires repeatedly. Even after the body is still.

Once again, immigration is not even a problem. Immigrants are not more criminal, they don't cost jobs, they don't harm the economy. There is no reason for any of this. It is hurting ourselves to hurt them.

100% true
Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind.
It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty.
Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face.
Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

Very happy to see that I live in a still vaccinating county. Quite unhappy to see that many of my relatives live in some of the least vaccinating counties. More unhappy to know that my niece is contributing to this with her kids.

Ran into Donny Osmond and his son (~5 or 6 maybe) in Target picking out a toy for a birthday party and the kid was being a kid.
This was in the late 1980s when he lived in Irvine, CA.
