I’m over trying to understand why I’m misunderstood. Take me back to Austin I’ve gone crazy in the woods. I occasionally write something interesting at: https://in-the-pines.ghost.io He/Him “pronouns in bio”

Oddly find myself in a position where it’s the beginning I have to rework. The ending is pretty close to good. I may have an interesting little morality tale here. Gonna take me another three passes but we may try straight fiction for my next blog post.

NOW: 500 LA solidarity protesters are trying to March from the Texas Capitol to the local ICE processing center three blocks away and are being blocked by Austin PD.

Ah fuck it…since I was mentioning it. Guess which line started a fight with my prude camera loving friend. youtu.be/nME7iDXfVNg?...

I’ve got a point in this otherwise pretty sweet story where a female character can say some pretty heinous sexual shit and I’m not sure if it would add gritty authenticity or be gratuitously offensive…

Working on a piece of fiction and I just had this weird kinda memory but I’m pretty sure there’s an AH-56 Cheyenne sitting on display at Fort Johnson. I swear I remember seeing one there.

Your tax dollars pay for just about everything a police department does, which includes generating tons of reports, dispatch logs, and video recordings. Any citizen is entitled to see those public records to understand how the government works. By @andrewfordnews.bsky.social (Published June 2020)

Hey uh…remember folks I post under my no shit government name. Kindly keep that in mind in the comments.

I know it’ll never work because it’s not the way protest and riots work but it’d be fucking hilarious if LA laid back and got super chill this week and NYC kicked off.

Every one of these dudes is a Californian returning “home.”

These really are good gifts…

This is what being used as a fucking prop for a political stunt looks like

There's a lot happening with the GOP's "Big Beautiful Bill" and it's hard to keep track. But knowledge is power. So I'm hosting a series of virtual budget reconciliation teach-ins. Join us this Wednesday night to learn about proposed cuts and how we can fight back. markey.senate.gov/TeachIn

Legitimately, no bullshit, straight truth, in a decade of working as a Sheriff’s Deputy I received easily ten times as much cultural sensitivity training as I ever did riot control training. Even if you count Tazer, pepper spray and bean bag shotgun as “riot control” you get damn near a 1:1 ratio.

There 3,144 counties in the U.S. which means 3,144 independent police agencies. Not counting 50 state police officers and literally thousands of city agencies. The MAJORITY of American police haven’t trained with the IDF. The MAJORITY of American police haven’t trained in riot control at all.
