Happy Pride weekend, KC

"My dog's learning to speak a foreign language." "Español?" "No, he's a labrador."

What's going on in LA should be a real wakeup call for folks who don't already know that a fully liberal government can still wind up a police state and without some major change to the way we talk about the militarization of policing, nothing will get better

but why?

Sorry, but this HAD to be done!

Very strange.....

The “Kristall” oil depot in Engels has been burning for the third day following a reported drone strike, per ASTRA. The oil storage facility supplies fuel to Engels-2 military air base, home to Russian bombers.

All we want is healthcare.

Monsters are real

Fox keeps proving there’s still more stupidity to come.

DEVELOPING: No warning. No reason. NYPD officers rushed into the crowd and tackled a protester this weekend. His body was limp. He couldn’t move. He said, “I can’t feel my legs.” He might never walk again. For showing up. This is brutality. This is America.

Hello, we are Joe and Jake, but Jake and Joe if you're reading left to right. Today, we are protesting that we have had only two breakfasts so far this morning. We get our food in small amounts, because we eat so quickly that we're sick, so it's for our own good. That said, we're hungry. Feed us!

I completely agree.

Rashomon is a great film from Akira Kurasawa, it takes place in feudal Japan and tells the story of a r*pe and murder from four different points of view, and it's up to us the audience to determine who's story was the most accurate.

Definitely 👊

It is a small but an important tendency to learn to pause when hearing a scary headline about this regime and ask: What gives them the authority to do this?

When a Blackhawk helicopter brings weapons and ammunition to a battle, you expect that “battle” not to be against our own.

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.

Everything is awful, but my great-niece is perfect.

ICE vs. Citizens of LA

I sure hope she's right.

Let’s be very clear: Los Angeles is the perfect place for this to play out for the Trumpists. The Trumpists hate California and hate Los Angeles and a vast amount of their base feels the same — even the Trumpists here, who wallow in hating the place they live. /1

Anti-ICE graffiti in Los Angeles! 🏴🔥

The Los Angeles Police Department has stated that demonstrations in the city have remained peaceful. Let that sink in.

Rarely seen with the naked eye, these bursts of energy, called sprites, were seen over Tibet.

The Korean parliament vowed to impeach their president EVERY WEEK until his party either stopped protecting him or the guy resigned in disgrace. No other business could proceed until they got rid of the attempted dictator.

At a private Mar-a-Lago event, Trump said he would give his “rich as hell” donors a tax cut. House Republicans fought like hell to make it happen. Promises made. Promises kept (for the richest Americans). The Senate vote is coming. Make your voices heard! #BigBeautifulBillForBillionaires

So do we get why I was banned from speaking about Pinochet at the Naval Academy now?

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

The problem is not that there are too many Americans protesting in the streets. The problem is that there are not enough. Not by a long shot.
