May all beings be happy
All beings without exception
Weak or strong, omitting none
Great or mighty, seen & unseen
Near & far
Born or yet unborn
May all beings be happy
Let no one deceive another
Or despise anyone anywhere
Or in anger wish another harm
May all beings be happy

BREAKING — Mayor of Lewiston, Maine posts on FB that ICE is coming to the city imminently. This confirms my reporting the agency is planning a surge in the city and state generally.

Lewiston is home to a large Somali-American population, which made up 4.6% of the population as of the 2020 census.

Well folks decriminalization will not be renewed. I'll have more to say about this later on, it's disappointing.
There is an announcement at 1 pm on the future of decriminalization in BC.

I'll say this much, criminalizing people for using drugs has never stopped them from using drugs, and going back to something that doesn't work is the definition of insanity ....

Today once again proved that everyday citizens protesting their government are braver than the titans who own the largest media corporations, run the biggest law firms and lead the most powerful technology companies.

Elmer Fudd’s moonshine at the ACME party had been so tempting. Marvelously drunk, Wonk Y. Coyote stumbled along the treacherous canyon path. But he didn’t care. All he could think of was the kiss he had stolen from Mrs. Road Runner, the woman of his dreams.

Her husband needed to go.

I wonder, seriously, how big the "ICE should be disbanded" percentage needs to get before either a) congressional leaders get on board or b) people decide congress isn't the best way to solve the problem

Ocean Magic

The special spell cast by the sea on a packed beach lets anyone who wants to be alone with the ocean, half-heard human talk as natural as the passing voices of gulls.

With snow comes deafening silence - not the softest murmur of the river. Until

a raven
shares some thoughts
from deepest white

I watch the raven pass, black wings, silhouetted against freezing
dusk. A last croak- or a laugh? At me? Gazing at the sky, yet bound to earth?

when ICE asks you questions about your neighbors, you've never met your neighbors in your life. you've never even seen them from afar. neighbors? what neighbors?
ICE is targeting Hmong families in St. Paul as they go door to door looking for people to kidnap. they’re asking “do you have any Asian neighbors”
