The most enlightening and disappointing thing to come out of this ICE shooting is that the right legitimately does not give a fuck about human life if it harms their political narrative.

Conway: This man is violating his oath in myriad ways each and every day. Impeachment is not an option. It is mandatory. It is required. It is morally, constitutionally, and legally obligated.

study after study after study shows that literally just handing people money and telling them "do what you want with this" reduces homelessness, increases food security for children, makes it more likely people will find and retain jobs.1

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

I saw my first owl in the wild a couple of days ago on a hike in East Sooke Park. It was a breathtaking experience. Thanks to @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social for spotting it.

This ain’t about abortion, it’s about punishing folks who can’t afford private care and women who dare to demand control over their own bodies.
Shutting down clinics means more undiagnosed cancer, more untreated STIs, and more folks left out here with nowhere to turn.

I don't give a shit who goes to prison. Let the chips fall.
I don't care if it means we have to have special elections to make a quorum.
If you were a part of this, you don't belong anywhere in government.

Stop pretending. The so-called ICE agents creeping around LA aren’t chasing violent criminals.
If you don’t see the racial profiling, you’re either in denial or fine with it. And since they’re incognito, no one can give a straight answer on how we’re supposed to know they’re even legit.

Advocating for universal healthcare is not extreme.
What’s extreme is pushing Americans into debt if they get sick, just because it makes an executive richer.
