/3 Think about it. Faced with lawless, violent thugs who feel entitled to murder and abuse, and faced with an unimaginably powerful government openly praising and endorsing murder and lying to justify it, these people are still showing up, often for people they don’t even know.

Renee Good's death has me spinning. I'm angry and sad. We could have a better world if we wanted to and instead we have... this.

I want to find the consultant who convinced Dems to stick with this framing, tie them to a stake, light a match, and tell everyone they have to decide between caring about saving them or caring about milk being 2% cheaper
The White House is laser focused on threatening a military takeover of Greenland.
Where’s the same focus on lowering costs?

Compare and contrast with the absolutely useless statement from @cantwell.senate.gov.
These people hardly believe in anything. They lied to the American people to win an election, and now we're all paying the price.
I opposed the war in Iraq from the outset, and I will oppose any war in Venezuela as well.
No occupation. No "boots on the ground."

Unimportant in the grand scheme of things but just got spam from “SquareSpace Domains” because apparently google is selling my email now for marketing purposes when they sold the domain business. I never consented to spam from google or squarespace.

Crypto has, at this point, become load bearing bullshit.
I hate it. It is largely gambling and money laundering. And it isn’t going away.

Okay. Since I posted this yesterday, so many people have tried to convince me that we "won" against crypto and it's dead. Because they don't hear about it anymore. I really need y'all to pay attention. Crypto is still huge. Not only is it not dead, it continues to cause massive harm.
DEI is banned. Cryptocurrency is still around and has largely succeeded at perpetuating the largest siphoning of wealth I think I'll ever see in my lifetime. Cops are still killing Black people, and now they get to kidnap everybody else too.

The best banana bread recipe ever. I picked this up at a Trader Joe’s next to the bananas something like 25 years ago. Key is over ripe bananas and lots of them.
Making it now. I’ll post a pic when it is done.

It is so clear that @cantwell.senate.gov needs to go. She just got reelected but I won’t forget her weakness and am ready to support a primary challenger when the time comes.
