Finland has topped the World Happiness Rankings for the eighth year running.

Wonder what they’re doing differently? 🤔🤔

Mamdani surges in new poll, leading Cuomo for first time in New York mayor's race The former governor has topped every voter survey since entering the race, but the democratic socialist is gaining on him.

Get ready everyone.

The elite right leaning media in DC/NY's acela corridor are about to launch all out attacks on this man - just like they attacked Elizabeth Warren and before that - Howard Dean.

Time to make sure the progressives/left are fully unified behind him.

If seeing a Waymo tagged and on fire upsets you more than a teenager ripped out of his high school graduation by ICE your mind is no longer your own

LAPD when they think nobody is watching

REMINDER - Los Angeles—originally named El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles del Río Porciúncula and was founded in 1781 by a group of 44 Mexican settlers, and 26 of them were of African descent.

Beautiful bouquet of white, pink, and lavender flowers in a clear vase.

Some floral beauty to re-regulate your nervous system this Sunday afternoon. Because beauty and pleasure is resistance too.

This right here.

Guard is walking behind cops. Cops are trying to push back at least a thousand people.

Police are now dealing with what seems like two different problems. The people who feel threatened and are tired of it and whatever set the police off to come down in emergency formation.

They’re looking for three different vehicles in the area. Something is wrong. They’re not after the protesters.

Something went wrong and I think it had something to do with a man on a motorcycle. But more than that happened. The crowd was so large it’s hard to tell what made the cops turn.

I’m not sure what changed. Police presence is massive now. People are running.

With a massive amount of city and state officials and reps present as well as large media presence, ICE is acting very differently than they did the past two days. They are being watched by the entire world right now. They can’t blame protesters and fire bombs like yesterday.

The protests are in full swing and it is a lot of people. LA is unfazed by National Guard presence. If anything it has motivated more to come out and protest this administration.

I’m going to call this an extension of LA Hardcore excellence.

My heart is with you L.A.

The LAPD says they will protect peaceful protesters and will not tolerate violence. Does that mean they will not tolerate the violence of ICE? W will they be protecting Californians from ICE?

What was the last album you put on and listened to all the way through?

Read two of his books last year and was/am looking forward to reading the most recent. Sad to hear we’ve lost another queer elder. Rest in Peace Mr White
