Newsom: "Arrest me. Let's just get it over with, tough guy. I don't give a damn ... Tom, arrest me. Let's go."

I was searching for an old post on Facebook and came across this. This is the moment Canada should have started reviewing our "in case of US Invasion" plans.

Watching Trump order the national guard on California yesterday, I kept thinking about this quote from... Um... Battlestar Galactica.

Remember this when Trump and the media try to portray the LA protestors as violent.

A student bursts into my class like Kramer first day back after the Victoria Day weekend, and blurts out - "... I didn't do the thing, because I forgot everything you said!" And I'm thinking, what thing? It's the first day back after the long weekend, I forgot everything I said too. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I witnessed the tail end of a someone getting attacked on Threads for what I thought was a very normal thing, so I'm here to ask... Is it not normal for people outside of Canada to specify white meat or dark meat when ordering chicken? The option is built right into the online ordering here.

Bannon is urging Trump to deport Musk www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

You know this @brittlestar.com gif was always my go-to Trump45 gif. But I haven't felt like posting it for Trump47, because it's felt a bit like the US News is about to pull aside the curtain next to me and say "Hello, Canada..." and I'd drop my chips. But today... Oh yes. Today I can post this gif

MMMMmmm oh god oh yeah that’s the good stuff like that

We're fostering Rooni (the cat) but our dog Kyra is absolutely smitten with her. We can't keep her, we have a cat surplus already. But Kyra will be so sad when Rooni finds her forever home.

I mean... Would you have told him?

Turns out Zelensky DID have the cards.

Ukraine amazing Drone Attack destroying 40 of Russia's 120 long range bombers is pretty fantastic, and an important signal that Ukraine is still in the fight. They smuggled a fleet of drones deep into Russia hidden in trucks and train cars, and successfully attacked four Russian airfields.

Remembering this trans man for Pride. Mexican Revolutionary Amelio Robles Ávila, who threatened to shoot anyone who misgendered him and said "he did not want to die without being known as a man,” lived his life as a man after transitioning. One of Zapata’s top commanders. We have always been here.

I don't open the liquor cabinet often, but today I did to see if we have enough residual 2024 bourbon to make my Vanilla Peach Bourbon jam this summer (with Ontario Peaches, natch). Turns out I do, & it's being diligently guarded by Snoop and The Elf. (I might still try a Canadian alternative.)

This made me cry. It's absolutely tragic and heart-wrenching to watch, but watch it anyway. We all need to bear witness to these atrocities. I don't live in the US and I never plan to, but we have to make sure everyone knows what's happening there.

Putting this one out to the world before I call a pro. So I pulled back some drywall in the basement to investigate some seeping moisture. Found some rotten wood framing, which was way harder to remove than I expected.

Punks do not like Nazis, & rightly so. Why do Nazis always think the punk scene is on their side? There's a whole song called "Nazi Punks Fuck Off". Security saved this guy from a richly-deserved shit-kicking. The crowd got a few knocks in tho. I don't condone violence, but... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Nazis right?
