After working 17 years for a non-profit that helps the homeless, I'm off on a new adventure pursuing my passion for photography and film work.

I have a guilty secret to admit... When Trump threatened to arrest Newsom my first thought was, "Does it mean he won't be able to podcast? Because you might talk me into this...".

They've filled their hearts with hatred so that there's no room for the law, where the God they claim to follow commands them to keep it. That's why they can deport, without remorse, an 11 year old cancer patient who was born here. It's how they can claim that empathy is weakness.

Sergio knew back in 1970. Be like Sergio Aragonés...

Well I had a stupid heart attack Thursday. 36 hours at the hospital later and I was back home Friday evening with MUCH better meds. Medical science is remarkable. I'll hate to see R.F.K. (Lysenko Jr.) dismantle it.😡

Ways people deal with the Homeless and Addicted: Compassion means to Suffer With Charity is giving what you can afford Sacrifice is giving what you can't afford Pity is giving someone your empty purse

...that was when Thomas realized that he was not, indeed, going to get to taste any Amontillado that day...

More fucking snake oil from Altman, et al.

I feel like I'm living in an alternate reality! These assholes aren't building anything! Sam Altman handed Jony Ive $6.5bn in stock to buy a company that hasn't built anything. Why can't OpenAI afford to buy them in cash? How much cash does OpenAI have exactly?

I'm sick and tired of people claiming to be journalists withholding timely and vitally important information for the tell all books they plan to release after the information is actionable. We HAVE historians, we NEED journalists. Tapper and Woodward can shove their books up their asses.

10 years and a day ago...

Multnomah County is gutting social services that keep people housed. every program that aids the poor and marginalized. mental health services and county adult special services, all axed. DA Nathan Vasquez is asking for a budget increase next year Oregon will give back roughly $1.5 billion in taxes

Let me see...what was I posting 6 years ago?? 🤔

This is a 1997 directory of fascist churches in the US. Most of these churches were small, but there were a lot of them. “Christian Identity” taught that Jews were anti-Christ communists and that America was meant to be a homeland for white people, who God had created superior to others.

...their shame...

Nothing would please me more than if this new Pope chased Opus Dei out of the Catholic Information Center like Saint Patrick and the proverbial snakes... 🤞

Did Brent just claim that the Pope was going to endorse the QAA Podcast? "May the Communion bless you and keep you". @jakerockatansky.bsky.social @travisview.bsky.social
