You know the *only* reason he got out so fast was a reporter live posted about this for hours. And, a large amount of public pressure.

Every time someone gets grabbed, there has to be a robust public response immediately.
BREAKING: Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez has been released. This is the moment he reunited with his mom.

this is such good news. i think it is also an opportunity for democrats to state forthrightly that when they win power again everyone responsible for this crime will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law and will face the american people to answer for their lawlessness
I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

We must all stand as a united front against the kidnapping and illegal detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador.

Senator, I am willing to join you and help Organize other members of the House to do the same. @vanhollen.senate.gov
Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen is demanding a meeting with El Salvador President Nayib Bukele over the detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia and says he’ll go to El Salvador himself if the Marylander isn’t returned.

Hey, just a quiet reminder: it’s not true that people get more conservative as they age. *Populations* get more conservative as they age because poor and marginalized people die sooner.

Seniors Are More Conservative Because the Poor Die Off
Sometimes older voters aren’t just naturally more conservative. It’s just that wealthier and whiter people tend to live longer and healthier lives.

PSA: library resources!
There's hoopla, too, for audio books. Our local library uses Libby, which also does ebooks.
I just downloaded Kanopy and Mango to try. 🤘

Please stop using the planet destroying slop machine that is generative AI.

No, it's not okay to use it for leftist or progressive causes. You don't stand with the working class or marginalized people by stealing their art without compensation.

Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag — traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat — thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

When did fandom become the obsession with actors in their real lives instead of sharing your love of a fun fictional world?

What they don't tell you is being vulnerable when you have anxiety makes you shit so much (this has been a classy post from a classy lady).

I get the distinct impression that some folks would rather run a cult than a community. Be mindful of the difference.

I keep forgetting that seeing other artists, going to their exhibits, hearing talks explaining their process, is actually fuel for my own creativity. Even as an non-exhibition artist!
