“We were already living in a kind of economic slavery. Now they are trying to put us in POLITICAL slavery too! Speaker Patterson: The people across KC; Black, white, or Brown; from Blue Springs to Lee’s Summit to Gladstone, REFUSE to be silenced or divided!”

Good Morning from Saguaro National Park ☀️🌵
I finished the Billy Joel HBO doc like two weeks ago and still have a pretty severe "Only the Good Die Young" earworm, and now some of you of a certain age will, too. I'm sorry. I can't go through this alone.
Join me in going full Andy Rooney!
That's gorgeous.
Okay, my 101-year-old grandfather is really enjoying the responses he’s gotten here, so I’ve finally convinced him to let me share something he’s been working on for years; a series of sculptures he calls “Trumpinnochios.” Here’s one of his best. I’ll share a few more in this thread.
??? That's a relief. But man. How fucked up.
Holy shit not again!!

🚨 STOP THE ILLEGAL GERRYMANDER OF MISSOURI 🚨 Gov. Kehoe just announced a special legislative session to rig the 2026 elections. 🥊 Don't let them get away with it, sign up to fight back now! actionnetwork.org/forms/stop-t...
New: Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe is also calling on lawmakers to make changes to the state’s initiative petition process, a stunning endorsement of a plan to weaken direct democracy in Missouri. Details here: www.kansascity.com/news/politic...
*8/29/2025 thread of noncooperation* Speaking of... If you're NOT near BWI &/or can't join the Stop Avelo protest-slash-dance-party on Sunday, here's ⬇️ a thread with more actions you can take (via Indivisible/ GroundAvelo.org), and/but StopAvelo.org also has great resources/ways to help. 6/
He prayed about resigning, and he's "prayerly (WTF?) confident" he'll be exonerated. Really wish more Republicans who love to talk about how godly they are and how much they pray would pray once in a while for the strength to be decent human beings.
this survey took less than two minutes yes, it's inane. do it anyway
My 79 year old mom and 83 year old Dad were just told by Walgreen's that they they need a prescription for their Covid shot. This is just lunacy.

Finally, a voice of reason! And bravery.

I like!
Did you know SBA Disaster Loans aren't just for businesses and nonprofits? Details on these low interest rate loans (deferred for one year) up to $2 million thanks to Eric Schmid of St. Louis Magazine! www.stlmag.com/business/how...
Beautiful. Thank you.
I feel the same way about my gall bladder and part of my colon! I haven't been the same since. Just because we *can* live without them doesn't mean we should!
Are vaccines safe? Let's ask this guy who sounds like a dying refrigerator compressor
Sure, it works. It makes the person praying feel better. Do they really see evidence that prayer in the wake of school shootings has helped anything? Maybe they're actually praying for more school shootings?
"We believe he's listening." Then what are they asking him, exactly? Because nothing has changed. Belief, faith, prayer-- that's fine. Go ahead and do it. But what about trying some works with that faith?
Um, I use both of mine every minute of every day.
A unit in my condo is already decorated for Halloween. Calling 911.
This is the perfect time to remind everyone how we were once united with a non partisan hate towards Priuses.
I think most of it's worth a watch...
More Rosie photos and link. Whoever takes her in gets to be a BlueSky hero. new.shelterluv.com/embed/animal...
Meanwhile, Rosie still needs a foster home too. Fostering is free and fun and important.
Just a few reminders dor those Guard members called up under Title 32: www.ecfr.gov/current/titl... www.knowva.ebenefits.va.gov/system/templ...
So much fellating. They must be exhausted.
Aw man. I LOVED this guy!

No one yearns better than Claire Danes' Angela.
A family of fellow St. Louisans lost everything this week when their home exploded. Their 18 year old son sustained burns over 85% of his body. There's a link to the Go Fund Me in the article. Please consider donating if u can, or please consider reposting. Thanks! www.ksdk.com/article/news...
Will wear underwear on the outside if he agrees to stop the rest of the insanity.
I don't have it on me but I'm sure my mom has it handy! Will keep you updated 🙂
Yes! My mom's chicken speidini with mashed potatoes is a fave. And this buttermilk choc cake that she makes with the darkest of King Arthur's cocoa powders. Heavenly. I think about it for weeks after every time I'm lucky enough to eat it.
That's a good idea. I, too, feel stuck.
Just masterful knob-slobbin' by Witkoff. Expert massage of the Bell End-in-Chief.
Current status: Vomiting.
Just shameful and disgusting. Painful to watch. Why don't they just come out and say "Dear Leader"?
Proud of my fellow Missourians!

Quite surreal to be painting Yorkshire from my own photos after all these years. It truly is a beautiful place, just as I always imagined it would be. Shoreline between Sandsend and Whitby, North Yorkshire, England 8x6” oil Available! kateaveryart.com/oil/shorelin...
Vaccination tourism gonna be huge in Canada. Of course, the eugenicists in charge may not allow us back in the country with the mark of the beast.
Jesus, I can't wait till that racist mfer dies.
Unbelievable talent being showcased in this mariners game

I'm surprised they haven't converted all the school buses into Teslas yet.
First time in their lives? Is he saying crime was this bad between Jan 2017 and Jan 2021, and they just ignored it? I realize Miller doesn't believe a word he says, but I still wish some reporter would ask about why they didn't fix this in their first term. Just curious how they'd spin that.
Wonder how he does on the monkey bars? Better or worse than Al Queda?

Drugs on the table, as it were. Companion to jukin' the stats. Pathetic.
Well if he ain't the picture of health, I don't know who is.
I attended the StL meeting tonight and it gave me hope! Looking forward to Sept 10th!
💥BREAKING💥 On back-to-back nights, hundreds of Missourians in St. Louis and St. Charles are demanding an end to President Trump’s authoritarian power grab!
Next you should take in "Fanny" by the Bee Gees.
Why not both?
It feels unreal even though we knew this go round was going to be much worse. I sure didn't think I'd see masked goons on the street so fast. Others have it much worse than I. I fear for all my non white non straight non-Christian friends..😧 I appreciate your kind words!
I live in Missouri, which is chock full o' rabid Trump bootlickers. I don't know why I stay here, either, except my whole family is here. Honestly, what country would want us? I guess I could move to a blue state, maybe next door in IL? I really don't think there's any escape 🥺😠
But seriously....I ask myself this nearly every hour.
All our stuff is here.
Has he shot anyone yet?
I'm betting the same people who give their life to Christ in a Cracker Barrel parking lot would have loved Sambo's.
It's a whole other level of personality disorder.
Not *every* red onion needs to be pickled.
Workers built this country and made it strong, and we aren’t about to let billionaires and union-busters take it from us. Join us for our Workers Labor Day week of action where we’re fighting for freedom, fairness and security #WorkersDeserve. WorkersLaborDay.org
Dang. What order of Catholicism is.*this*?
So he's going to "go out" with all his henchmen tonight? Is he taking an MRAP? Cuz he sure as hell can't walk more than a couple of blocks, especially with that edema. He'd better hump a few flags to warm up. If we're lucky, maybe we'll get to see him wearing fatigues and holding a gold Bible.
I’m making a book of creepy weird bootlicker traitor simpleton whiny baby losers in my spare time. Made from cut paper on an old painted catalog. It’s highly satisfying to do. I have long list of losers to complete.
If this was the late 18th century I’d be setting up my easel right now. #Vesuvius
Holy shit, did that dude find any polyps up there?
Wonderful! Congrats!

They do look as if they're not quite... done.
Friends, we got a call to action 👇 We have the right to know when and how our creative works are used, especially when it comes to GenAi! This is why we need regulation like California’s Ai Copyright Transparency Act #AB-412 ! If you agree, especially if in CA, please sign & share this petition!
this is tomorrow btw
Now look for Wizard Whitebeard, Wenda, and Odlaw!
Now do faze/phase and tenet/tenant 🙂
Gawd that sounds like heaven right now.
‘Think you’re gonna take Marty from me, ya little punk? We made Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, Goodfellas, he’ll never leave me! Ya hear?’
For the baby who has everything: renal dysfunction.
That's a tough but necessary watch for all Americans. I knew the response was a colossal failure, but this doc enraged me a new level. Just abject incompetence, ignorance, arrogance and cruelty. Shameful.
Wouldn't you rather see something more relaxing like, say, EDDINGTON? This is really fucked up. These goons are a menace and a blight. Be careful out there.
I just heard someone ask for their martini to be "shook." Where is that asteroid, already?
I need everybody who reads this to do me two favors: 1) re-skeet it so that others see it. 2) *call* your congresscritter's office on Monday (find them here: www.house.gov/representati...) and tell them you want them to support the "Protect America's Workforce Act" and demand the Discharge Petition.

Dude is a recent Prager U grad.
Pee tape at the omelette bar?
Good thing he got 40 minutes of prep for that!
There is so much wrong with him. He is so empty. Even his pathologies have pathologies.
