News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement.

Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.

I can't see this making one bit of difference. Hamas can release every hostage, living or deceased, and this genocide will continue. What will be surprising? The international community making Israel stop.
I can fully see it making no difference to the IDF & everyone humming & hawing.

Why would Israel allow that? The point was to destroy the Palestinians, not give them an opportunity to recover. Thrive? Absolutely not

Me minding my own business this FINE autumnal day, sipping my tea (as you do), and coming across a strange tale of international import. Just another Saturday morning on Bluesky...

I can hear Putin's laughter all the way here...and I agree.

Completely ridiculous when democratic institutions actively try to destroy themselves by not standing up to the empire's attacks.

Anders Puck Nielsen @anderspucknielsen.dk · 8d

This is a strange ruling. The conclusion must be that anyone can destroy whatever subsea infrastructure they want as long as it is in the exclusive economic zone and not the territorial waters.

#FlipTablesFlipTexas is a mandate for America, but also for us all. We do need to #FlipTables. People are turning away from "the church" because people USE the Bible and God to punish and restrict.
Jesus asked us to do VERY simple things.
Love thy neighbour, as thyself.
Judge not lest ye be judged.

#Christians of SM! It is time to take our #Faith back. #MAGA, Christian Nationalists, etc are out here claiming Jesus while standing in opposition to ALL He stood for.
We have to claim these folk, and we have to help them.

The entire rapist trump regime is full of psycho- sociopaths like Stephen Miller.

This personality disorder is celebrated, especially among hard right conservatives and white supremacists.

Stephen Miller's mentality is encouraged, advanced and rewarded with the right's bigoted culture.

Me having a fairly rapidly arranged endoscopy and telling no one cos if I do, then they will panic, and I can't afford that. But somehow saying it here, knowing no one will see this and no one will care is ok...
