Time since J.D. Vance's 5 hours

"Protecting" Nigerian Christians was a nakedly political move. If he wanted to save lives he could save 600,000 by reinstating USAID without firing a shot. This was not a Christian act, this was a play for Christian votes in the face of massive moral and ethical failure.

Governor Rhodes pulled out the highway patrol, sent in the National Guard, who were trained as soldiers, not in crowd control. Within hours four lay dead on the ground.

At home then, my Dad cradled his head in his hands and said, "You just don't shoot people for throwing rocks at you."

I have said this before, but I need to repeat it. My father led a riot squad of Highway Patrolmen at Kent State. They were all trained in crowd control and while the riot continued, the crowd was contained, dispersed then would regroup, but no one was injured for 24 hours.

Hyperspace Hoopla brought dance battles and comedy to Star Wars Weekends at Hollywood Studios, turning galactic icons into surprise performers. The high-energy show quickly became a fan-favorite.

Either everyone is entitled to due process, or no one is. Without it, they can designate your mom as "illegal" and swipe her off the street and off to an El Salvador prison camp, and how exactly would you prove she's not, if there's no process for you to present her birth certificate?
Indiana Rep Spartz (R): “You violated the law, you are not entitled to due process.”

Dangerously ignorant. 🇺🇸

Jailing scholars, scientists leaving to do their work elsewhere, references to attitudes they don't like scrubbed from Government sites and documents, entertainment critical of the regime muted : cultural revolution 101. If we don't stop them it WILL get worse. Way worse.

Thing I found out in writing this, is the throat opening of a humpback isn't wide enough to pass a person. They scoop up huge amounts of food, but then force it down an opening less than a foot wide. I suspect that fishes were schooling under this guy's kayak & the whale was trying to skim them off.

I tried to move on and I just can't.

Can you imagine being a state AG and signing your name to a poorly written, poorly formatted, garbage brief that essentially says "Let's throw out the US Constitution"??

The shame should be incapacitating, but Lynn Fitch apparently has none.
In a disgraceful act betraying millions of their own residents, Iowa, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming all write to oppose birthright citizenship.

Your mental health is paramount. Protect it. Remove yourself from negative stimulus if you're having trouble coping. It's completely reasonable to be outraged, freaked out, and anxious, but take a break. Take care of yourself.

The thing about blocking a jerk without otherwise engaging them is that an hour later you will have forgotten about them entirely; nothing about them will have stuck in your memory at all. There's not even a blank spot. It's simply as if they never existed in your space at all. It's delightful.
MAGA is going to chase you over here. They'll chase you where ever you go on social media. They can't survive without making you miserable. Why do you think Truth social failed? They need conflict. Don't give it to them and don't engage. Bluesky has amazing block functions. Block them into the void.
The slow trickle of MAGA folks over here underscores how much their experience of online is entirely dependent on people getting mad at them. It also underscores how even they, given the option, would rather not hang out with themselves either.
