People think Stephen Miller froze cause he accidentally said too much, but that doesn’t track with all the brazen unapologetic dictatory things this administration outright says all the time….that man was having a medical episode.

Sometimes the moon is magic.

It’s just incredible right now. It looks fake.

Apparently also one of the men who got Julias Caesar yelled it...that might be the origin of it.

This phrase translates to β€œThus Always To Tyrants” & essentially means tyrants will always be overthrown. It is also the state motto of Virginia which I didn’t know & think is very cool.

We have a fairy leaving painted rocks like this around the walkways coming into my office building & I’m a fan:

(my colleague apparently saw one last week with the words β€œTrump is a p*dophile” on it)

I thought I’d be satiated by watching the first NBA preseason game Flagg played, but it just made the anticipation of a pressure filled meaningful game feel more intense…

All the points in the second quarter too, before sitting the rest of the game.

Did I just watch a preseason Lively dunk 6 times to see him & all his teammates reacting to it?? I did.

I’m jonesing I know.

But then, why on earth would conservative men like this who lead conservative churches, constantly & loudly use their microphones to point fingers at the queer community as a scary, predatory risk to our children’s safety?

Oh…..right….

Sometimes it’s hard to tell if the bad guys know they’re losing, so it’s important to read it when they say it out loud.

A Texas megachurch pastor and GOP leader has been arrested for crimes against children. Not Robert Morris, a different one. Not Josiah Anthony, a different one. Not Luke Cunningham, a different one.

For those new to BlueSky or anyone who may have missed this when I created it last year when I joined, but here’s a starter pack for the #DallasMavericks fan out there!

Good mix of media & follow worthy fans!

Every single real news outlet in America…even small local stations & papers that aren’t in Oregon should be playing or quoting this clip with live reporters, images & videos IN Portland to prove this outrageous lie until anyone who ever watches or reads the news sees it for themselves.

Holy shit that local commercial that started with β€œAttention Dallas Police Officers” and then explained why the most racist ones should quite the PD b/c they protect POC and join ICE instead was INSANE….

I hate it here so much rn….jfc

If you’re white, your accomplishments are your own and you can resent and criticize the country all you like, but if you’re black and successful you should be grateful to white people for allowing you in their presence. bsky.app/profile/jess...

Whoever you are...

If your response to hate is more hate.

If you try to sow more division in reaction to divisive actions.

If your turn your anger into a destructive force rather than try to build a better world.

Then you are as much a problem as that which you claim to stand up against.

I want this to be true I really do but I fear swing voters will always just vote based on the price of eggs.

Politicians were too scared to go this far before but now they know they can get away with it & this won’t stop until they’re scared again. We have to address accountability or we’re cooked

Thanks for understanding Brenda….also he’s 15….if anything it makes it even MORE imperative that I know & follow the rules. He sleeps so much harder now than he did as a young buck. I would rightfully be indicted & imprisoned for breaking them. Β―\_(ツ)_/Β―

The Indigo Girls & Melissa Etheridge were on We Can Do Hard Things this week & never have I more quickly hit β€œplay” on something then when I saw it…

Learning that Abby sent Glennon the song Drive by Melissa Ferrick when courting her, and OF COURSE SHE DID I love my fellow lesbians so much…

How many proud boys are now ICE agents…how many men who would happily be a part of a paramilitary force for this regime have joined ICE b/c THIS is their paramilitary force, fully & generously funded by the federal government & complete w/impunity?

What a dream come true for the modern KKK.

There are so many sweet sad lost dogs ending up in foster care who cry in grief & who’s foster families are figuring out that the dogs respond to them in Spanish rather then English & it’s happening more & more leading to the assumption that the dog’s humans probably got deported & FUCK ICE omg πŸ’”

Emotional intelligence AND health must start becoming more important in political leaders.

Full psychological examinations & emotional stress tests with results available to the public if you want to be in high leadership positions in politics.

Low EQ’s are literally destroying this country rn.

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

Sliding down pyramids is some of the most fun I’ve ever had playing any video game. It’s a fantastic game with lots of fun Easter eggs too.

Enjoy it!
