I've been building around WordPress to create a social network based on RSS. I want to get out of being controlled by billionaire-owned sites. I have a feeling we may need a good backup given where we are now.

i wonder sometimes if we’re the last generation of humanoids for a variety of reasons.

I think that ICE is the continuation of Jan 6.

Difference: now they've had plenty of time to prepare, and there are a lot more of them, and a virtually infinite supply of money and time to build it out and lots of prior art to learn from. And probably no force that can stop it.

all this says is that men and women are different.

i'd love to read one of these take-downs that concludes women are incompetent because they aren't more like men, but that will never happen because women are a million times better at PR than men.

but remember, every man had a mother. ;-)

we have to develop new channels for reliable news, do it for ourselves.

What’s happening with ICE is like January 6 four years later with billions of dollars behind it and many months of planning and studying history for prior art.

Something that occurred to me watching football.

At the risk of stating the obvious, there isn’t much honesty in the journalism we get.

Are there protests today in the US? Hard to tell by tuning into news networks.

Trump will protect Iranian protestors, but kills American protestors.

We could have this in the USA. ❤️

A sign from one of Tucson’s five events today. Tons of people!

I also loved the sign that said, “OUR HUDDLED MASSES WILL KICK YOUR HOODED ASSES,” but I didn’t get a picture.

Oh, and getting a thumbs up from a cop who drove by was great, too!

BREAKING: Massive Crowds of Anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis, Minnesota as we speak. The tide is turning. America is Fed Up.

Americans should be fighting back against what is happening in this country. Having masked, secret police shooting people, breaking into homes and cars, is NOT normal.
