(He/him)I make and love things enthusiastically... maybe too much. Like Prowrestling, anime, Kaiju movies, and... well too much for this thing.

I have worn a lot of hats. Not just because I'm bald.
This is great... but just a start. Cannot stop till everyone is home.
Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

This morning, federal agents staged at the Powderhorn Park Recreation Center lot and began to throw chemical irritants at observers. They also kidnapped an observer. Our parks are meant for our children, youth, and neighbors. They should never be militarized zones meant to separate families. 1/

Epstein’s economic power among academics was made possible by a capitalist system that makes higher education dependent on the charity economy rather than a public good supported by taxing the rich

Nothing has changed and these masked, armed federal paramilitaries are just as aggressive and lawless as ever.

Who is she lying to? The public or herself. Conservative politics have always been losses. They destroy the economy, rob the American public, and destroy institutions it took decades to build. And then a dem repairs just enough of it... we deserve better.
GOP Rep. Salazar: "I know that the economy is not doing as well as some people would like to. I know we have an issue with immigration. But the big picture is that we're doing pretty well."

Russian forces have attacked a maternity hospital in Zaporizhzhya, wounding six - two of whom were pregnant women undergoing examination.

A nation truly committed to peace, Russia.

Florida voters approved raising the minimum wage, loud and clear.

Now Tallahassee is pushing bills that let employers dodge it with “internship” loopholes.

Work is work. Pay workers fairly. Respect the vote.

It really is worth understanding what an escalation this is by the feds to be teargassing the big family friendly march
Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

You know, if a bunch of sweet Jewish old ladies are saying “this reminds me of Anne Frank” then that’s a good enough allegorical green check mark for me.

Ex-Prince Andrew tried to make this same argument. Everyone who went to pedophile island was a mega-rich elite who easily could, and in most cases probably also did, independently procure victims and commit sex crimes without Epstein's help if they wanted.
"I can be a pedophile all on my own" is not the flex he thinks it is.

"We can either tax you out of existence or we can launch you into the sun with a trebuchet. Your call!"
The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

Last year for Black History Month, we did a daily story on black accomplishments in the military to help introduce people to our new Bluesky page, so we'll try to be as equally ambitious this year. I'm sure you've heard of the Tuskegee Airmen but I bet you haven't heard this part of their history:

We were right. It's really annoying to know how right we were, how wrong they were, and how screwed we all are.

If you are not a lawyer... shut the fuck up.
BASH: A federal judge in Texas just yesteday said 'administrative warrants issued by the executive branch to itself do not pass probable cause muster. That is called the fox guarding the henhouse.' Why is he wrong?

RON JOHNSON: Because this has to with immigration law. Again, I'm not a lawyer.
