DUUUUUUUUDE (Gen X for Awesome!)
No Kings post mortem: MUCH larger crowd than I expected. Didn’t see any LE until I was leaving. Only one pro-fascism driver that I’m aware of, and the dude distracted himself almost into having an accident. Got into a chat with a Vietnamese couple. They’ve been attending many protests.
About 1/4 of the Aliso Viejo No Kings showing #NoKings
Excellent tips. Unfortunately I’ll be 💯 alone. The friends I’d most likely have to inform would be PISSED if I got myself arrested or injured (“you knew that could happen!”)
If people are getting paid to protest, what’s the going rate? Are there ads anywhere for that? Is one single billionaire paying all the millions, and still somehow remaining a billionaire?
I don’t think he quit
New Yorkers scream out each officer’s lawsuits against them for excessive force and more upon their city, right to their faces while protesting.
Dammit.
This is why I’ve been ignoring their stupid tiff. The catastrophic damage has been done.
And what’s with the cryptocurrency shit? Even if I had a molecule of respect for him, I wouldn’t accept vaporware money like that.
Am I just spitballing here, or do other folks think the laughing lady and coach wouldn’t have us… well, here, at this point, right?
What I like about my company: No one acknowledges outside issues What I dislike about my company: No one acknowledges outside issues
It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.
Oh, ffs
Someone holding a No Kings sign in Tacoma, WA will see “very heavy force?” Sure.
I am weary of assholes trying to run things.
I gave the cliff’s notes version, but here’s a more detailed analysis of what’s going on statuskuo.substack.com/p/trump-depl...
He used Title 10. Von Shitzinpantz has slimy lawyers finding loopholes like that to federalize the NG over the Governor’s disapproval.
Of course he fucking did 😖
Great job taking care of your stormtroopers, Palpatine. 10/10, no notes.
This is the way to stand up to these bullies! Respect ✊
😳😳
Of course he fucking did
Look, I got one in the wild!
And compliment them. Ask them where they got their Amazon ICE costumes and military accessories.
My therapist asked if I’m addicted to being busy. . Me: Oooooooo 😳 . Kinda? I always have to be DOING something. Usually making something, and I can’t stand “dead air” around me. I can’t just sit in a bathrobe and stare at an old movie. I have to be multitasking, or feel like time’s a-wastin’.
I hope whichever judge he gets personally tosses all of Von Shitzinpantz’ “prosecutors” out the door.
Oh, alien smuggling! What a clever phrase!
Will the Bar do anything about it? Someone received a response from them to the effect of “Well, first she has to be not AG, simply not done otherwise, harrumph”
I don’t want any! Can that be a compromise?
Turns out the Random Person was attacking everyone who responded to the vet. Time for Blocky Block and the Blocky Bunch
Threads tonight: Vet: For God’s sake, be with your pets during euthanasia! Me: Yeah, my sister wasn’t 😞 Random Person: HOW DARE YOU JUDGE HER =============== People seem to be running hot lately
Even fucking RUSSIA had voted Yes
So… . Wondering how Von Shitzinpantz and Miller are getting on. . No reason, just cracking open the Hope Window a teeny bit.
An amusing tale: I’ve never seen any of the “Terrorizer” movies, about a killer clown. I mostly follow people “on the same page” as I am politically, so I followed David Howard Thornton… and had no idea that he’s THE actor for those movies. But we’re equally horrified by this regime. 🤝
Jfc!
Many thanks! Are the instruments in your gif ones that you play?
☺️ set drums, ukulele, baritone ukulele, harmonica, bass, voice Percussion: bongos, congas, djembe, cajon ☺️
The heartbreaking statement from Jonathan Joss’s husband about his death.
The “A” counts, so here are my Pride flags. alt text if you don’t recognize them
Her “lord and savior” had a whole shtick going about healing everyone who asked, but whatevs, Jonester
I have this suspicion that he’s going to have far less reverence for our natural resources than Deb Haaland.
✊🇺🇦
We lose jewels like Tom Petty and Heath Ledger to accidental ODs of prescription meds, and dudes like Muskrat swallow handfuls like they’re M&Ms and just… keep… going.
Monsterpalooza in Pasadena
Folks: It’s spelled “martial,” not “Marshall.” Unless we’re talking about a person named Marshall who has a law. Otherwise it’s “martial.”
Another aloha-style shirt, perfect for a first date, or celebrating the vernal equinox.
Sorry, I meant TNY
Spoiler: They are not.
I can’t shake the feeling that this headline would be much different if the laughing lady and coach had been elected. . Ah, wait. It’s NYT. You’d probably ask it, anyway.
1/ They’re not just fighting culture wars. They’re targeting your kids. In classrooms. On YouTube. On TikTok. And they’re winning. Here’s how the right is systematically radicalizing the next generation, and why we better take it seriously. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue
I wish there weren’t so many swasticars in my area, though.
That’s the only name I use for him.
I’m not equipped to change hearts and minds with vigorous debating. If my feed is basically an echo chamber because I block anyone even remotely illiberal, then oh well (well well well well well)…
Eventually, all businesses will be.
Tranquil Fury is my default mode. I only seem calm.
The hidden provision in the Big Ugly Bill that makes Trump king https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-hidden-provision-in-the-big-ugly
WHAT
Funny. She fucking *should be.*
Following in their pattern of hiding their worst legislation in the middle of the night, House GOP leadership added new language barely an hour ago that blocks payments for insurance plans on the ACA exchanges that cover abortion care. Then blocked @fernandez.house.gov's amendment to stop it.

My therapist seemed pleased with my description of the plantation burning, and that confederate museum smashed by a tree (and THEN burned down), as “heartwarming.”
Has anyone who’s worked at a Wendy’s actually gotten to say, “Sir, this is a Wendy’s” to anyone?
::sigh::
I’m a drummer. . I don’t like the song “Wipeout” at all. . But I’d play it if I had to. 🤷♀️

Many thanks for the tip!
I’ve stopped trying to figure out block lists. I’m also on somebody’s for being a “genocide apologist,” and another for being a grifter(???). That I’m always asking for money and pushing my non-existent side hustles?
I’m no master negotiator, but I have some suggestions for how he could end the war, starting with 1) STOP ATTACKING UKRAINE
“Should?” . . . “SHOULD??”
Dafuq??
Good.
wtf
Swell.
Just a quick recap. The following “classic” tunes are actually protest songs: Born in the USA Rocking in the Free World Fortunate Son Blowin’ in the Wind This Land is Your Land For What It’s Worth Big Yellow Taxi . A partial list, of course. Rock on!
Swell.
Once again, I keep forgetting to be subservient.
::sigh:: It. Is. A. BRIBE
You didn’t even have to name it. We know where you mean.
Whoooaaaaaa 👏👏
These people suck so much 😖
I already knew this about my sister, but tonight she declared proudly that she avoids the news as much as possible to… I guess, not be upset by it? I’d mentioned protesting earlier, and there it began: “Protesting what?” ::sigh:: 🤦♀️
Dammit.
You and I know the orcas ain’t talking.
NEW: Chaos at the ICE detention centre in New Jersey. Newark Mayor Ras Baraka has been arrested by the DOJ after Members of Congress (apparently being shoved by agents) attempted to include him on a visit. Baraka has opposed the facility, saying it opened without permits. (🎥 News 12 New Jersey)
I’ve been wracking my brains to decide if the laughing lady and coach would mistake Mattel for a country or not. I keep landing on “not.”
Doctor or Mechanic? . . “I have this one thing I’d like you to take care of.” . “Okay, but I notice 8 other expensive things wrong, too. Do you want to take care of them right now?”
Oh, yes, please do run, Marge. You’re soooo popular, everyone loves your fightin’ spirit 😏
You’re likely in a much better mood than I am, then. 😏
I dunno what it says that I couldn’t stop laughing. Maybe because she’s just cartoonishly evil, and it’s Piers Fucking Morgan who’s curb-stomping her the whole time. Wtf
Wait; is he suggesting that it was NOT a genius move? 🤔😮
Self*
I’ve been eager to get officially tested so I don’t have to sell-diagnose, but… Imma gonna hang on for a bit.
Meeting with DOGGIE was the WRONG answer
