What is most important to me now is being in love.
Love of self.
Love of God.
Love of a partner.
Love of my fellow wo(man).
Only love honors God. In the face of a crumbling empire (that DESERVES to fall), love is all we have going forward.

According to FBI agents involved in the raid, Attorney General William Barr was on the scene and he personally took custody of many items seized, a step they thought highly unusual.

This is sinister. If you're wondering why so many people don't report sexual assault, this is why.
jesus the Palm Beach Police really sought arrest warrants against underage Epstein victims for coming forward and cooperating, and (purported) admitting to crimes, and it caused the victims to become uncooperative with the federal investigation
![. . . very cooperative, but the police at that point had to let [redacted] know that what she had done that she could be facing charges.
Q And that was after they had told her earlier that she didn't need an attorney present, correct?
A Exactly.
Q Okay. So this happens to her with the Palm Beach Police Department and did the Palm Beach Police actually present or propose charging [redacted]?
A They did get a probable cause affidavit against [redacted].
Q And is that why Ms. [redacted] and her attorney were concerned about her testimony here?
A Yes.
Q Now was a subpoena issued for Ms. [redacted] on behalf of this grand jury?
A Yes, it was.
Q And before Ms. [redacted] would comply with that, did she -- did her attorney request some sort of order?
A Yes.
Q And what did he ask for?
A He asked for immunity for [redacted].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:eoss3vmzem55cm5kuddhdmwn/bafkreiariijffjjrgfh26o22jjr76pwprinvnbpkcho5lyi2sucfbqlooy@jpeg)

The Gaza genocide radicalized the world — and there's no going back
People can't unsee a live-streamed annihilation defended under the banner of liberal democracy. They know the Israeli apartheid regime can no longer exist.

This is where I remind you that YOU, US citizen, are paying for those genocidal zionists who are occupying Palestine to have free healthcare and education and childcare, etcetera, so that they can slaughter, rape, torture and steal.

Of course, we may never get truth from Waymo. They're taking a "Trump hides Epstein files" approach to data disclosure.
And it will probably work. There are far more who want to believe Waymo's advertising than those who want to understand the truth.

Hey, Waymo! When The Big One Hits, What’s Your Plan?
Saturday’s robo-gridlock exposed Wamo as being nakedly unprepared. Moreover, the company hasn’t shared any plans to prevent the debacle from repeating itself.

Michael Mansfield criticises ministers’ refusal to meet Palestine Action hunger strikers
Leading human rights lawyer accuses government of ‘dismissive approach’ based on ‘ludicrous’ reasoning
One of the UK’s leading human rights lawyers has criticised the government’s refusal to engage with Palestine Action-affiliated prisoners who are on hunger strike as based on “ludicrous” reasoning.
In its strongest statement yet, the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) said that meeting with the hunger strikers risked creating “perverse incentives” but this was roundly rejected by Michael Mansfield KC, known for his work on landmark cases such as the Grenfell Tower fire, Stephen Lawrence and the Birmingham Six.
