It's not that hard folks. Putin ordered Trump to destroy the U.S. from the inside. And that is precisely what he is doing.

I think I'd move to California so fast.
More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland.
They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

We are lithic.
The Long Neolithic is continuity with our fundamental nature. To step into a stone circles is to know we are pattern makers, season markers. It is a knowing we have always looked to sky, always had our rituals and mysteries of death. We are lithic. – Dr. K. Brophy #StandingStoneSunday

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.

This. I am done returning to the status quo of what got us here. I want universal healthcare. I want a maximum wage tied to the minimum wage. I want omnipresent, cheap public transit and walkable neighborhoods. I want Supreme Court and police reform, and I want the rich to pay their fair share.
We need to pick up this Overton Window and throw it as far as we can. Stop waiting for shit to “be popular” and start advocating for what is transparently right.

So after talking to three different people and losing almost an hour of my life, a new modem and router are on their way to the correct address. 😤
Optimum shipped my new router to the house we haven't lived in for 8 years. Now they want me to go to an Optimum store to file a complaint in person?!? Fuck that action! It's their mess; they need to fix it. 🤬

Important to remind ourselves that there are good people in the world and good things still happen.
One out of 12 rams is uninterested in females. Deemed “non-procreative" by farmers, they're typically sent to slaughter. German farmer Michael Stücke rescues the gay rams. His company Rainbow Wool, sells fabulous wool products from his flock of gay sheep. rainbow-wool.com

I was almost completely off social media and on a news blackout this weekend. It was a great reset. Highly recommended.
Except for a few calls I need to make tomorrow, contemplating going phoneless this weekend. The world is a little much right now.
