What did the world physically look like before colonialism ruined everything? There was a natural rhythm that was interrupted. Almost impossible to get that back. #ColonialChaos

I've now watched the censored 60 Minutes report on CECOT. If you watched it too—and if you have any decency at all—I'm sure you came to the same conclusion I did: winning elections won't be enough; people like Stephen Miller and Kristi Noem will need to be charged and imprisoned.

Some jerk is setting off fireworks in the distance so he came over to lay by me for comfort. Sweet boy.

Sitting here, innocently minding my own business, Star Trek movie playing in the background, dogs on the bed with me, I'm reading thru Buffy tweets on Bluesky when, Bam! Migraine. Take my pills, drink water, hope for the best, and watch Spock kick some Romulan ass. P.S. Anya is my fav character.

Anya may be my absolute favorite character on this show. I think it's the autism.

Anya is absolutely my favorite Buffyverse character.

BREAKING: SCOTUS RULES 6-3 BLOCKING Trump's deployment of the National Guard to Illinois. Alito, Thomas, & Gorsuch dissent.

Mind you that IL is at historic lows in violent crime and it is yet dropping. There is ZERO need for militarizing our state.

A big win for justice & due process today.

20 State AGs have sued Russell Vought for trying to starve the CFPB of funding.

Since 2011, the CFPB has returned over $20B to consumers.

Without the Bureau, financial predators and scammers will have an easier time picking your pocket.

Everyone says "impeccable" but no one uses peccable. I'm going to make this happen, especially on this app with how people be carrying on here.

He is promising, on camera, to break his oath to the Constitution by illegally and unconstitutionally usurping the exclusive authority of Congress. Sprinkle in a little 'blowing up the Union' to boot
Sean Duffy on blue states: "What I can do is I can pull their money. That's the leverage I do have ... I guarantee you that the federal taxpayer is not going to fund their roads and bridges and their systems when they are putting illegals on the roads."

If you're a staffer at 60 Minutes who worked on that CECOT segment that got yanked by Bari Weiss at the last minute, figure out a way to leak it. Not saying it's an easy decision or there won't be consequences, but ask yourself why you got into journalism in the first place.

This is my Christmas gift to my homeless neighbors, to the volunteers who get great joy from helping them…and, yes, to myself. Merry Christmas to all!

And my neighbors who are cold, wet, hungry, and overwhelmed…are now happy that their humble little refuge — where love gets traction, and prayers are answered — will stay in business.

And now, I get to partner with the wonderful network of volunteers and caring people who run the Lynnwood Hygiene Center. And — thanks to $400K in community donations — there is funding to develop the center through capital improvements.
