Jeaus fuck. The depths we have sunk to, when Cabinet members brag online about murdering civilians in international waters, we are not coming back from this, and people need to realize that the next wave is not (cannot be, for MAGA's sKe) far behind.

I don't know why it took me by surprise that the president is only starting to design the new east wing after they tore down the old east wing. It is completely on-brand.

Read Minty's post and remember how a simple clause turns a truth we should honor into a fascist dog whistle we should always call out.

Wow, when the dysmorphia hits it hits hard and out of nowhere.

They say that they are "dedicated entirely to girls", but that is as incorrect as saying the 19th Amendment meant women could vote. It meant that WHITE women could vote.

Girl Guides is now dedicated entirely to *cis* girls, reversing years of prior policy.
I wrote to the guides to express my disappointment at this change. Here is the response.

It absolutely sucks that this is the case, but everyone should realize that this is the case.
Blocked on venmo, should've seen it coming.
I forgot a client said tribute in the notes
That's a BIG deal!

For future reference clients
Say- coffee- drinks- food or emojis!!!

Banks and pay apps want any excuse to ban sex workers

Protect us by being smart!

Do Not Imply Sex Work in Notes!!!

"A Native American tribe that was displaced by the establishment of Yosemite National Park is getting part of its lands back. The land transfer, from Pacific Forest Trust, is considered a major milestone for Indigenous cultural and land restoration in California."

Just. Stop. Obeying.

Individual troops should ignore anything from the national org, and the national org should ignore the ruling until they force Labour to publicly throw the vulnerable under the bus.

I'm torn between wanting that joy in my life as quickly as possible and wanting it to be better weather than this for what will be the world's biggest block party in San Francisco.

Plus physical books, particularly for graphic novels and/or authors I particularly love, for special books.
I've got an e-book reader that I use most of the time, my phone is back up to that, and audiobooks for when I'm driving or doing yardwork

"The Little Party That Didn't Even Try"
For some reason Democratic leaders seem to prefer telling voters what they won’t be able to do, rather than what they’d like to do.

If Hegseth ordered a war crime and lied about it, shouldn’t Ds try for impeachment? Put Rs on the spot. They might get a few defections.

Jeffries says not to expect Democrats to pursue Hegseth impeachment over boat strikes
"Republicans will never allow articles of impeachment to be brought to the floor," he said.

This is what we are. We have always done heinous things but now we brag about them, we celebrate them.
