No woman having an #abortion has ever killed a classroom full of children.
#AbortionIsHealthcare, #GunViolence kills.

"How about we treat every young man who wants to buy a gun like every woman who wants to get an abortion mandatory 48-hr waiting period, parental permission, a note from his doctor proving he understands what he's about to do, a video he has to watch about the effects of gun violence, and an ultrasound wand up the ass (just because). Let's close down all but one gun shop in every state and make him travel hundreds of miles, take time off work, and stay overnight in a strange town to get a gun. Make him walk through a gauntlet of people holding photos of loved ones who were shot to death, people who call him a murderer and beg him not to buy a gun.
It makes more sense to do this with young men and guns than with women and health care, right? I mean, no woman getting an abortion has killed a room full of people in seconds, right?"

We all wanted Trump to be more pro-woman; we just didn't expect that woman to be Ghislaine Maxwell

I took a lock off a door
😅

Disassembled parts of an Abloy lock cylinder on a wooden surface. Visible components include the main Abloy cylinder housing with two screw holes, the brass lock core with a rotating cam, two long through-screws, a shorter screw, a metal mounting plate with two holes, and a set of keys partially visible at the bottom left.
Metal pieces and holes unintentionally form face-like shapes. The Abloy cylinder’s two screw holes resemble eyes, the central opening a mouth, and the oval mounting plate with two holes looks like a surprised face.

Miksi en ikinä osta Ilta/-lehteä/-Sanomia?

Osuin sivulle vahingossa ja tässä on nyt tärkeitä uutisia.

Kyllä, tuo jälkimmäinenkin on siis uutinen (siinä lukee niin).
Ei klikkihuorausta, jonka ingressissä on 1 käytetyimpiä click baiteja. Keinoahan ei tietenkään kerrota vaan pitää ensin maksaa.

Tonneja säästöön
Tein rahankäyttööni yhden muutoksen. Se auttoi minua säästämään tuhansia euroja alle vuodessa. Tämä keino on uskomaton.

Tein yhden ainoan muutoksen rahankäyttööni.

Sen avittamana olen säästänyt nopeasti tuhansia euroja.

Minulle jää niin paljon ylimääräistä, että edes hintavaan auton korjaukseen en joutunut käyttämään säästöjäni. Usko tai älä, mutta tämä keino toimii sinullakin.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

#ICEtapo is shooting at clergymen asking them to join in prayer

Jack Jenkins @jackjenkins.me · 1d

NEW: I spoke to clergy and faith leaders who've joined protests at the Chicago-area ICE facility.

Three say they've been shot with pepper balls, sometimes while praying.

All say ICE is also violating their religious freedom, and one is arguing it in court. religionnews.com/2025/10/07/i...

Religious protesters say ICE threatens religious freedom in Chicago

(RNS) — Despite potential danger, religious leaders and faith activists have been a visible presence at Chicago-area ICE protests, some waving signs with slogans such as ‘Love thy neighbor’ and ‘Who w...

💙Hello my new friends and dear Hopeful 💙

Honoured and happy, I'm following all now.

This time, instead of orange tinted misery, I'll share some silky yellow friendliness:
Meet Fluffy 😍

2 photos side by side:
A light-colored ball python is coiled gently around a person's hand, displaying a soft yellow and white pattern with a slightly darker head.
The snake's texture is smooth and glossy, and the person holding it has manicured nails with a blue accent.
Left: May 25 small snake, almost fitting the hand
Right: Aug 25 bigger, visibly thicker and longer, only partly fitting the frame.

It really is staggering to see so many people willing to abandon our 249 year experiment in democracy for an increasingly unstable criminally convicted reality show charlatan.
