Conservation curmudgeon by day.
Mostly here for NOLA, Pelicans, COYS, and avoiding responsibilities.
Thoughts are, unfortunately, my own.
Was behind on the Pelicans game, but that run by Jose was so fun. Pretty much made the difference in this one.

Love marching in KdV, but this weather is pushing past the fun threshold into pain. Seriously considering sitting this one out.

They didn't even try to throw a white person in here for arrest. Bullhorn racism.
feds have arrested jamael lundy alongside journalists georgia fort and don lemon for the protest at a st. paul church led by an ICE agent

The VERY MEAN AND NASTY Jesus Christ flipped over a bunch of tables in the temple and assaulted our fine money changers with a whip! HE WILL NOT GET AWAY WITH THIS. Jesus is a well-known leftist who has NO RESPECT for the businesses that make our houses of worship great!

The regime is testing the waters of arresting journalists for covering the news they don't want you to see.

Apparently another friend has printed a few (500) whistles for me to take to Mardi Gras... anyone on #NOLAsky who wants some for community action work?

H2A guest worker visas are finally a big enough program that farmers are ready to switch to that instead of undoc'd workers.

That's why they're rounding up undoc'd people.

Farms don't really need them anymore, & they're "too hard to control."

That hasn't changed!
I'm calling bullshit on the media narrative that Trump is "pivoting" and "deescalating" on his ICE raids. The threshold is this: As long as the military occupations and the treatment of US cities as enemy territory continue, there's no pivot. ICE out. 1/

Donald Trump Is Frightened
Trump wants to appear eager to minimize out-of-control clashes between government militias and protesters. But he doesn’t want to stop the things causing those clashes in the first place.

I keep thinking about how the Pelicans have $65m tied up in guards who can't play basketball. Like, imagine if one of those spots was simply Luke Kennard and what a difference that would make.
Pelicans are really a few true shooters away from starting to be an okay team.
January 28, 2026 at 1:53 PM
That ain't on Fears. Replay clearly shows Dort starting that shit.
January 28, 2026 at 3:29 AM
This isn't a bad loss, but it is an annoying loss because OKC was trying to give you this game early.
January 28, 2026 at 3:20 AM
Sure wish the Pelicans had a guard who could shoot 3s right now.
January 28, 2026 at 3:14 AM
The control Rep. Omar showed in not beating that guy's ass.
January 28, 2026 at 3:00 AM
Jesus, Fears. What was that?
January 28, 2026 at 2:57 AM
That dud first quarter doomed the Pels. They could have built a cushion and didn't capitalize.
January 28, 2026 at 2:57 AM
This OKC whistle is absurd.
January 28, 2026 at 2:51 AM
Joel hates Dort as much as I do.
January 28, 2026 at 2:35 AM
Pelicans need to get Trey some easy looks to get going. He's forcing it right now.
January 28, 2026 at 1:54 AM
Can't tell if Missi is playing like he wants to stay or like he wants someone to come get him.

Pelicans OKC on track for a football score.
January 28, 2026 at 1:22 AM
Pels getting some good looks, but need to convert.
January 28, 2026 at 1:15 AM
I can watch the Pelicans for the first time in 10 days and it is against...OKC...at OKC. Fun awaits...
