This statement from Jonathan Joss's husband is heart breaking. No, headline writers, he wasn't "killed in an argument with a neighbor." He was *deliberately murdered* for being gay right after his dog was decapitated. Bet the murderer calls himself a "Christian." THIS is why Pride is important.

“We are currently experiencing longer than usual wait times.” 😂😃🙌

A Texas cop used 83,000+ license plate readers to hunt down a woman… for having an abortion. Legal in many states. Still hunted. This isn’t about safety—it’s about control. Welcome to reproductive surveillance in 2025. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... #BlueSky #MedSky #NewsSky #ObSky #NurseSky

Rep. Dan Goldman called it out: masked ICE agents hiding from cameras while detaining migrants in plainclothes isn’t law enforcement—it’s authoritarianism. If it’s legal, why the disguise? This is Trump’s two-faced fascism. Protesters get punished for masks—agents get power. This is not democracy.

Early voting starts in the New Jersey Democratic Governor primary this week. It’s a big race. One candidate really stands out. secure.ngpvan.com/LIT5s8Eo6Ei3...

Goodnight everybody

This no-kill animal shelter is in desperate need of kitten food, kitten milk replacement, and other supplies. If you post a screenshot in my replies showing that you donated at least $10 (even as a Chewy gift card), I'll answer a style-related question for you. Donation info in their thread.

Consequences. We need consequences.

"Brooke Nichols, an associate professor of global health at Boston University, has estimated that these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year." www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

Harvard president receives standing ovation during commencement.

Reporter: Wall Street analysts have a new term called the TACO trade.. Saying Trump always chickens out on tariffs…   Trump: I kick out? Reporter: Chicken out.

ICE agents making arrests while masked— no warrants. This is about basic civil rights. What are our protections? Who’s accountable? Congress must act. Hold hearings—sanctioned or not. ☎️ Call your Senators and Representatives NOW: (202) 224-3121 @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov

4-year-old Bakersfield girl facing deportation could die within days of losing medical care - Los Angeles Times Don’t ever tell me that Christians support the GOP. There is nothing Christian or Christ-like about this. Just plain old cruelty and callousness:

Not a coincidence.

To honor the memory of all veterans, we on E Street remember this live performance of "The Wall" — filmed in 2014 and dedicated to veterans, friends, inspirations and a bandmate lost too soon: Ray and Walter Cichon as well as The Castiles' drummer, Bart Haynes.

Thank you so much Mr. Eliasch! God bless you!
