Ginger's cancer is getting worse. She's in pain and uncomfortable. We made a final appointment for Thursday morning. I'm glad these six months here in California were probably the most comfortable, least anxious, happiest months of her life. I'm going to miss her so much but it's time.

Hot take: Christmas season can start on November 1st as long as Halloween Season can last until Thanksgiving.
I also propose that (so called) "Christmas Carols" that are not about Christmas are allowed to exist as long as it is locally considered winter or otherwise applicable.

Photo of Trump with text: IF YOU'RE ASKING YOURSELF WHY TRUMP IS DOING THIS, IT'S SIMPLE; HE WANTS UNREST. HE WANTS ANARCHY. HE WANTS TO CREATE SO MUCH CHAOS THAT HE CAN POINT TO IT AND SAY, "THE COUNTRY'S TOO UNSTABLE FOR ELECTIONS." HIS GOAL ISN'T TO LEAD A DEMOCRACY; IT'S TO STOP IT. HE AND HIS ALLIES WANT TO USE DISORDER AS THE EXCUSE TO HOLD ONTO POWER. @COACHD SPEAKS

Our vice president just hosted the podcast of a politically murdered private citizen, along with the deputy chief of staff, calling for consequences for people who use their first amendment right to talk about disliking said dead man.

What the fuck man. Like what the fuck

Note: Now that the Pride flag is an official city government flag, many schools and cities across the US with Pride flag bans can now fly it.

Many Pride flag bans have an exception for “city” or “government” flags.

And those exceptions do not specify that they are your local government flag.

1. Missoula, Montana has cleverly voted to defy the Pride flag ban by making the it "an official city flag."

This comes after a law banned the flying of the flag but made an exception for "official flags."

Now, the Pride flag will fly defiantly in the state.

Missoula, MT Adopts Pride Flag As "Official Flag," Legally Defying Ban On Flying It
Montana HB819 was intended to ban Pride flags from flying on city property, but had an exception for "official flags." So Missoula made the Pride flag an official flag.

Mentally ill people being loud isn't a reason to kill them. Someone being erratic doesn't mean they can't be victims of hate crimes. And people are in fact violently transphobic to trans men.

Post says: Statement from Tristan Kern de Gonzales Husband of Jonathan Joss My husband Jonathan Joss and I were involved in a shooting while checking the mail at the site of our former home. That home was burned down after over two years of threats from people in the area who repeatedly told us they would set it on fire. We reported these threats to law enforcement multiple times and nothing was done. Throughout that time we were harassed regularly by individuals who made it clear they did not accept our relationship. Much of the harassment was openly homophobic. When we returned to the site to check our mail we discovered the skull of one of our dogs and its harness placed in clear view. This caused both of us severe emotional distress. We began yelling and crying in response to the pain of what we saw. While we were doing this a man approached us. He started yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He then raised the gun in his lap and fired. Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not threatening anyone. We were grieving. We were standing side by side. When the man fired Jonathan pushed me out of the way. He saved my life. Jonathan is my husband. He gave me more love in our time together than most people ever get. We were newlyweds. We picked Valentines Day. We were in the process of looking for a trailer and planning our future. He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other. I was with him when he passed. I told him how much he was loved. To everyone who supported him, his fans, his friends, know that he valued you deeply. He saw you as family. My focus now is on protecting Jonathan's legacy and honoring the life we built together. If your concern is how someone coped with trauma or how loudly they speak when recounting injustice and being ignored by authorities then you never truly cared about my husband. Jonathan saved my life. I will carry that forward. I will protect what he built. - Tristan Kern de Gonzales

Jonathon Joss, voice actor on King of the Hill, was gunned down in broad daylight by a homophobic bigot who had been harassing the couple for some time. Texas cops did nothing to protect them.

Jonathon Joss died because he stepped in front of a bullet meant for his trans husband. A bullet from someone who burnt his house down and killed his dogs. (Which *he* was blamed for.) Who dug the one dog up to mock them. And no one believed them because Jonathon was bipolar. And he died for it.

Choosing to get married at a plantation in 2025 is wild behavior.
It’s not just “problematic.”
It’s violent.
It’s disrespectful at an ancestral level.

I dunno man, maybe it's from always buying cheap clothes and wearing them out but fast fashion is actually way better quality than cheap clothes were. 10 years ago getting egg yolk all over a $10 dress meant it was garbage. But now you can wash it the next day with motel bodywash and it's fine lol.

Total lunar eclipse on schedule for very early Friday morning...viewing conditions look pretty good for us in the Capital Region. Some patchy clouds around but clear periods too. Expect temperatures in the 30s with light wind conditions.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.
A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

I don't see a source for him ordering DEI hires to be placed on leave. Just that he's putting ppl who work in DEI on leave. Which is very different.

BREAKING NEWS:

Donald Trump orders all federal employees identified as DEI hires to placed on leave by 5pm.

The order is said to target trans federal employees and some people of Color.

This is arbitrary and evil. No other way to describe it.
