Dear YouTube, stop showing me quilting channels. I am interested in sewing garments, not blankets. I have enough blankets and have zero interest in quilting anything.

Fuck this country.
Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans.

This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota:

“Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

Seems to me that, for the most part, police unions have historically not been very ... well, pro public.

I'd be quick to add that a union's position is not always that of its rank and file.

Ignore the unions. Appeal to the cops.
Thank you for telling us you neither serve nor protect. Thank you for saying the quiet part out loud. That was state murder in broad daylight, captured from multiple angles by multiple witnesses, and the people of Minneapolis have eyes.

You support murder.

Indiana isn't really winning this game.

Oregon is losing it for them.

Anyone want to tell me which slides to delete for my meeting tomorrow?

It’s waaaay too much for this little social committee.

Aggies are bred in a culture of hate.

So, I’m not remotely surprised.
Texas A&M decides that Plato is too woke (and too gay) to be read in College Station, because of risk that the Texas GOP would be offended.
From an email to one of our faculty members....

Not even Plato can escape censorship at Texas A&M!

🚨 Today, I formally introduced articles of impeachment against Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

RFK Jr. has turned his back on science and the safety of the American people. Michiganders cannot take another day of his chaos.

Three times in a week.

Me to @cloverdung.bsky.social: The front-right burner is my favorite. Probably because I’m right-handed.

In an Acre Homestead video on YouTube: “...my favorite burner” (same front/right one)

On a sign for a local grocery: “Adulting is having a favorite burner on the stove."

We gotta love and support our neighbors. We gotta keep our communities in our hearts. We gotta unlearn "I earned X, why should Y just get it for free?" and replace it with "I have X, how can we help Y realize that same comfort?" Strength is not a show of cruelty, strength is uplifting compassion.

Indiana’s attempt to revive a Ten Commandments monument is about promoting Christianity, not “tradition,” and it’s just as unconstitutional now as it was then.
Indiana's Republican leaders are trying to resurrect a Ten Commandments monument outside the Capitol.

The courts already ruled it unconstitutional decades ago.

But the governor now claims it’s promoting our *history*…

Indiana Republicans are reviving a decades-old fight over a Ten Commandments monument
Gov. Mike Braun and Attorney General Todd Rokita are gambling on a more partisan court to advance their Christian Nationalist agenda
