I desperately want to be a Finny.

This man is the fucking devil.

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

Gabon's coup leader Brice Oligui Nguema looked to cement his grip on power as the oil-producing African nation held a presidential election that analysts expected to be a one-sided affair reut.rs/42c5RZB

International students say they are deleting social media, keeping their views to themselves and staying on campus to avoid being deported.

The fossil fuel thugs can try all they like to bully their way to dominance, but here is where markets are moving. Last year, renewables hit 32%.

The Trump Cycle, in 6 steps: 1) Create fake crisis 2) Overreact, making it a real crisis 3) Make fun of people as they suffer 4) Completely cave, ending the crisis 5) Have everyone around you profit from insider access 6) Soak up the applause from your cult for solving crisis

holy shit THE VILLAGES

Hubby and I went head to head in this test tonight, because he made a joke about “humbling me”. He scored 96. He then looked at me and asked, “Seriously, now I need to actually know: why did you marry me?” 😂🤦‍♀️

After 11 years of formal training, guess who just got their DOD and Law Enforcement Krav Maga Instructor certification? This girl. Woot woot!

Yep

Republicans want to fully repeal the estate tax. This would result in a massive tax cut for the wealthiest families and further entrench an American aristocracy. How will Republicans pay for it? With major cuts to social programs like Medicaid and SNAP. Trickle up economics.

Let's get past the parlor games and remember what happened with these leaked Signal chats. They disclosed classified information that could put lives at stake. Now, Secretary Hegseth needs to man up and admit his mistake -- or resign and stop being a distraction.

@barackobama.bsky.social it’s about time. What took you so long to join us up here in the clouds, sir?

I'm no lawyer, but it seems like discussing war plans in Signal outside a SCIF is maybe just a little bit worse than using a private server to send emails that weren't even marked as classified. But what do I know.

In a perfect world, the town drunk and the Secretary of Defense would be two different people.

Merchant Monday highlight: www.etsy.com/shop/AnimeAu... is my hookup for everything custom, gaming, anime, and more merch anytime I need it. He’s made hats for my toddlers and me, matching shirts, everything. Definitely hit him up.

Must read story.

Every Irish person who has complained to me about Irish politics has immediately followed it up with “of course I know it’s nothing compared with what you’re dealing with…”

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

Roses are red Violets are blue

I miss the days when anxiety was general and vague and about things unlikely to happen. Those were the days

We're making up for the things the schools refuse to teach kids today (about slavery, the Civil Rights Movement, the Civil War, Women's Rights, the LGBTQ community, etc.) here at home. Even one child who is fully informed is a child who can educate others their age...and spread the knowledge.

Beauty is meaningless; there’s nothing impressive about vane beauty. It takes far more in this world to be an inwardly beautiful person — and to have anything more than something as temporary as objectified vanity to offer. What we give to others—beauty that shines from inside—that’s impressive.

Whatever we may do in life, no matter what “accomplishments” we try to hoard, means absolutely nothing. The point to life is in how much you do for other people; that’s what’s remembered when we’re gone. We are no one—no matter how many ‘followers’ we have—if we do not touch the lives of others.

The #JFKassassination files is just another distraction, and Trump knows it. Look at this shiny object over here while I plunder moment.

When you think about how empty you have to be inside to pretend like a golf game where no one will call you out on your actual score, and tell you that you didn’t win, is a real win…it’s really hard for most of us to wrap our head around it.

Politics hasn't been this simple in a long time: do you think it's good for one man to exercise unchecked, arbitrary power or not. Those are the two available ideologies right now
