🇺🇦Pokrovsky direction: The enemy is trying to creep north from the dachas towards the farm areas, which are still under our control. They are working in small groups, without frontal attacks. As a result, they constantly run into our drones, & the gray zone is gradually expanding, but at the cost of

I'm still learning the camera; this was just a test of the time lapse, probably zoomed in too much (with a built-in lens).

I love how the cloud accepts and envelops the Moon, like it's passing through a cell membrane.

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

it's correct to be concerned about assisted suicide legislation in a country with an unbelievably inadequate welfare system and incredibly financially burdensome healthcare.

but it's extremely important to acknowledge that the number one issue at hand here is ableism
they get this info from everyone who commits suicide with a doctor's help and it goes:
1. loss of autonomy
2. difficulty engaging in enjoyable activities
3. loss of dignity
4. feeling like a burden
5. concerns about untreatable pain
6. finances

To recap:
•Rittenhouse killed 2 people at a BLM rally & raised $2M
•Shiloh Hendrix called a Black child the n-word & raised $800K
•Now Crystal Wilsey called a Black customer the n-word & has already raised $100K in 1 day

On thing remains clear—White supremacy remains extremely profitable in America

NEW: We sent a letter demanding that ICE end immigration detention at Fort Bliss, the same facility used to intern people of Japanese descent during World War II.

People detained at this facility are denied adequate food, medical care, and are physically and sexually abused by the guards.

UPDATE: Another Chicago-area church has put up an immigration-themed Nativity scene.

A church member at Urban Village Church sent this one along, where Mary, Joseph and Jesus are gone and replaced with a sign that reads: “Due to ICE activity in our community, the Holy Family is in hiding.”

sorry for the zombie discourse but "we can't change what Jesus did [only ordaining men]" seems to me to be just such a weak and bad argument for a male-only priesthood that I'm almost surprised when I hear people say it. we can't change that He only ordained jewish people. we can't change that He/

Israel hunted a 70 year old lady down with a gun drone and then hoovered above to make sure she bled out next to her dying son. They both join almost 1,000 Palestinians Israel has massacred or maimed in its genocide during the "ceasefire".

Also recognize that this unambiguous use of the military to commit murder of helpless noncombatants as they fought for life is a direct reflection of the virulent white supremacy that has seized our government, where every Latino man is a gangbanger in a de facto state of war against White America

Good reminder that jus soli citizenship is not only important in the US, but its absence in many other countries is a human rights violation. No one should ever face deportation or second-class rights from the place they were born and grew up.
