This camp is precisely the territory that helped forge the Seminole Nation. Just... Saying.

... When anyone raises a question about the existing order, he is called either a reformer or a radical. It has been my lot to be called the latter. Why? Only because I have consistently objected to things which I believe unjust and dangerous. -- Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia #dontrankcuomo

I mean... Not the least bit wrong.

This is a gentle reminder, to all of us -- including me: We broke the 3.5 percent ceiling. OUTSTANDING! But this is not magic. We know we have the momentum. Now we need to keep our feet on the gas, and do the work. No Kings. No bullies. No billionaires. One step at a time.

"When we hear and accept what we hear without meeting others, without asking how can it be, without looking for friends outside our circles, when we accept hatred for a group as a legitimate discourse – Pharaoh is alive and well, inside ourselves." Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel 1/x

Best signs this morning ad Beach and Hodges: -- Its gotten so bad even the introverts are here -- So many lies, so little cardboard #indivisible #nokings

2000 plus in Jacksonville's suburbs, beachside, alone -- with three more Jax protests through the day. #indivisible #nokings

June 12, 2016, was Latin Night at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, FL, a time to celebrate Latin culture and communities in a safe, queer space. We continue to honor the 49 people killed that night by remembering their names, and wish strength and healing to their surviving friends and loved ones.

Apropos of the Solnit FB blunder and the leaking info about Ft Bragg personnel being cherry picked to assure 47 a receptive audience... We should remind ourselves, I think, that one purpose of the perpetual outrage machine is to make us give up and shut up and say this is inevitable.

More of those pesky facts, all.

Anyone want to tell Elon his Starships keep blowing up? Just .. saying.

A little something to consider in a season of fasc-spin

Gentle readers, a reminder: when a bot rolls up, or a troll, or somebody who's simply rude past all easy belief... Block them and move on. This Is The Way.

Once more, for those in the back: HEMA is diverse, by definition. A good evening's class, and a good start for Pride Month.

Nobody needs performative right now. Planning and care and caution in the face of people who consider you an enemy? That's what's needed.

Oh yes. --chef's kiss--

... That's four bots today trying to reach me at LinkedIn. Not impressed, LI team. Not impressed.

A Chicago Pope implies the existence of an MLA Pope and APA Pope

What could we know, if we would simply sit, and _listen_...?

Brilliant!

Here's a win for the week!

Every single person facing Federal charges whose innocence has been denied by Administration officials without as much as a hearing in court? They all should see those charges dismissed with prejudice. Followed by a heap of referrals to Bar associations, as appropriate, for dereliction of duty.

This is OBSCENE.

Catchy... And timely

This repost is not about Hookland. It is ... a caution about your tailors, if you like.

"Today’s builders of Babel tell us that there is no room for losers, and that those who fall along the way are losers. Theirs is the construction site of hell." [Pope Francis, 18 April 2025]

Parking this to think more about it, and the many consequences.

Nah, friend. Pan, chubby at best -- two out of three? They don't deserve my money either.

And found the original! (My first skeet of the morning rolled from a screenshot someone shared from other places and spaces. I am pleased to be able to pass the original on; give the writers their due!)

TRUE originalism. I like it...

A signal worth boosting.

Just a friendly reminder for any members of Congress who might be reading my humble pixels...
