Screenshot of a tweet from Aaron Blake that reads:
Trump announces he's transferring $10 billion from the US government to his "Board of Peace," which critics have likened to a giant slush fund Trump will control.
Now look, I get that Iβm not a high powered Dem consultant, but is there a reason we canβt run on seizing the FUCKING SLUSH FUND Trump is setting up and sending every criminal in this administration, including but not limited to those in DHS/CBP/ICE to fucking jail? Is that not a thing we can do?

When Joe Biden told Trump welcome home it was a fucking betrayal. A betrayal of his campaign and of core American values. But weβre supposed to shut up about it cause it makes you feel bad? GTFO

The Earth is also terrible, and dark, and cruel. The rabbit shrieks dying in the green meadows. The mountains clench their great hands full of hidden fire. There are sharks in the sea, and there is cruelty in menβs eyes.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. Itβs always a matter of will not resources.

There are certain tactics which are universally condemned because they do ultimate and lasting harms.
You don't do foreign ops by claiming you're medical personnel...or you can't do medicine because of generational suspicion.
When they claim to need help or are in distress to do harm? Same shit.

There are two kinds of people in the world:
People who suffered, and think because of that, everyone else should suffer the way they did because otherwise it's not fair.
People who suffered, and think because of that, no one else should have to suffer either.
Be the second.

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.
Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

watercolour of a battle between british and french sailing ships.
1804. Oceans are now Battlefields.
In the South China Sea a British convoy worth almost Β£1bn today is spotted by the French.
It should be a massacre.
