Something maybe worth noting is that all the frog costumes and signs and good-natured memeing came about because a wide spectrum of Americans saw someone in direct, brave confrontation with ICE—getting pepperballed and standing their ground—and thought “that’s awesome. That person is a hero”

Four bull elk took time away from mating to join the No Kings protest in Estes Park, Colorado. That’s how serious this is.

Also provided tech support wizardry like: making sure my elderly friend could use the restaurant check out computer, helping my OTHER elderly friend show me photos of the art exhibit on her phone by exiting the "edit photo" screen, and getting someone new signed up for the mailing list

MSNBC Grandmas in Skechers seamlessly reclaiming the frog from 4chan Nazis in about six weeks has gotta be the political upset of the century.

My friend’s neighbor’s house fell off its foundation (old steel structure collapsed), and they just did the funniest thing.

It's important to track how many citizens are kidnapped by ICE. But I'll keep hammering the point that it simply does not matter if someone is native-born or undocumented — NO ONE deserves to be brutalized by glorified rent-a-cops in a fascist state. There are no "innocent" victims. Just victims.
