US gov't officials were *instructed* to refer to Alex Pretti as a "terrorist". Be sure to use your language effectively as well. ICE and DHS are terrorists. Alex Pretti's death was not a murder, but an *execution*.

Going by middle names is a PITA though, because filling out forms always result in people using your first name
My parents gave us an anglo first name and a Japanese middle name. The Japanese name is a nice marker of our heritage but all of us go by our anglo first names. Except. When I was 13 my mom pulled out my birth certificate and found that Kim is actually my middle name.

For now, those in charge will continue to lie, but the rest of the world bears witness and none of us are fooled.

21.01.2026 17:58 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Also, some stories are just long enough that there is a scroll bar but no way to scroll, because if you try to move the cursor to the text window you lose the story

“Last year [2024-25] was our worst flu season in almost two decades, and I was hoping we might have a mild flu season this year. That does not appear to be the case.”

With Cuba in Trump's sights, I would be wary of travelling there right now. It's the first time I've been concerned (I've been 12 times since 2005).

Who was the former agent interviewed? (I'm in Canada so I can't view the video.)
Canada's CTV aired a very good interview with retired FBI special agent Dan Brunner.

Black text on a red and white background reads: Exploring Civil Defence. In an increasingly dangerous world, it pays to be prepared. Join a conversation exploring what a civil defence network is, why it matters, and how Canadians can start to build one. Date: Thursday, Jan 22. Time: 8pm EST/5pm PST. Hosted by Tim Ellis, more guests to be announced. RSVP: bit.ly/cd_meeting Above the text, a Canadian maple leaf logo is emblazoned on the outline of a shield shape.
We have entered a new era of threats to Canadian sovereignty. Old alliances will not save us. Safeguarding our freedom and our democracy is up to us.
To that end, you are invited to a virtual town hall discussion of civil defence on Thursday, Jan 22nd, at 8pm Eastern. RSVP here: bit.ly/cd_meeting
