Being the tip of the spear isn't without consequence, but sometimes you just have to fight the good fight despite the personal cost. I'm in a cage match with my elderly, disabled mother's predatory landlord. Learn more: middletownpropertygroupsucks.com

If you'd asked about the housewarming gift list because you want to get an actual gift (not a gift card), we move in Thursday, so it should be safe to ship stuff to the new place!

There's some "Limited Time Deals" on it, too. I may end up snagging that Blink camera myself.

Here's the list:

America's burgeoning kleptocracy is moving right along...

This South Side Weekly report on the Chicago building raid is well worth reading. Most striking to me are the indications of collusion between federal authorities and the building owner and management to effect a mass eviction at the blighted property. southsideweekly.com/federal-agen...

I'mma let you in on a little secret. You ready?

If you don't like something, that thing wasn't meant for you. That doesn't mean it shouldn't be a thing.

If you don't like a show... a song... a pair of shoes... a fighting style... an attitude... cool. Others do. And that's cool, too.

Thomas's Pumpkin Spice bagels are not sufficiently pumpkiny, nor spicy. They're fine... nothing gross about them. Aside from the softer texture, once you put cream cheese on it, the supposed pumpkin & spice get completely lost and it's not that different from plain bagel.

I'll never get these images out of my head. There was life before this. And there will be life after this. 😏

This is the final piece of the puzzle of the GOP's decades-long assault on public education. They've succeeded in dumbing down the American electorate, demonizing intelligence & critical thinking skills, and consolidating their power.

Now it's time to shift gears toward indoctrination.

Children around the world have died because Trump and Musk needlessly destroyed USAID. These are some of their stories.

I didn't realize that's the back at first glance, so I totally thought for a sec that those were just some wicked saggy stripper-turned-madam jugs. 🤣

A circumstance has been created in which self-determination for the Palestinian people is practically impossible. You're right.

More proof that the American "news" media is blindly committed to incessantly reporting on a profitable circus while maliciously ignoring the fascist takeover of the United States government, the machinations of that nefarious effort, and the hostile actors—right, left, and foreign—behind it all.

These lunatics are gonna end up getting this girl kidnapped, tortured, and ultimately killed by Hamas. Can you imagine what they'd do if they ever got their hands on her?!?

This won't be resolved in the next 3 years. It likely won't be resolved in our lifetimes. Even if both sides agreed to shake the Etch-a-Sketch going forward right now, we're a long way from an actual long-term peace plan in the region.

The deaths in Final Destination 2 are so much more graphic and gruesome. 🤣

At some point all parties involved have to stop constantly pointing to everything that's happened and agree to wipe the slate clean & move forward. All the tit-for-tat who did what isn't constructive. At some point it stops mattering what's happened in the past, since we learned nothing from it.

I don't agree that the last two years have changed anything substantively with regard to the feasibility of a Palestinian state in Gaza. That said, I have no idea what the answer to your question would be. This will never end because intransigent egomaniacs will never allow it to end.

I have no idea, but this nightmare never ends until people a hell of a lot smarter and better at this than me figure out how to make a two-state solution work. Because just waiting for one side to slaughter the other out of existence isn't workin' out for anyone and both people deserve to exist.

So is the deity allowing all this to happen in "His" name. 'Bout time "He" starts shouldering "His" share of the responsibility for all this. Maybe if we non-believers start talking enough shit about their "God", they'll start acting more like Jesus to make "Him" look better.

That not how real life works though. It's a situation that has to be dealt with, because there are real lives at stake and that region of the world doesn't exist in a bubble. It's not like you can just fence in the people you don't like and kill them off. That's been tried. It's how we got here.
