Also? As someone who punched his school bully, being forced to watch all of this unfold is particularly maddening.

Yes. This. Quite the apt metaphor.

There is only one response I want from any & all elected officials: impeach him, remove him from office, prosecute him, and incarcerate him.

Any other response is useless. This is our last opportunity for a rule of law resolution.

Kansas Sends Letters To Trans People Demanding The Immediate Surrender Of Drivers Licenses "The legislature did not include a grace period."

It seems all Kansas-issued trans drivers' licenses are invalid, effective tomorrow

It is now illegal for trans people to drive a car until they surrender their license at a DMV (that most will need to drive to) and have it reissued with the wrong gender marker

This was never about woman's sports

Apropos of nothing, I’d like to point out that even when one is able to navigate through the regulatory maze of permit approval, it is nigh impossible to complete a building project if said building is reduced to rubble.

Fires happen all the time. So I hear.

We encourage anyone with video footage or eyewitness accounts of unlawful actions by federal agents to report them to the Oregon Department of Justice at www.doj.state.or.us/oregon-depar...

The ACLU wants to hear from any families with kids or anyone who was significantly impacted by the use of chemical munitions at yesterday’s protest. Please email my office so we can help connect you with their legal team.

Nutrition is his mission. Good health, his goal.

Also? I wish that we had AI like Max, with an evolving sense of ethics and no compunctions about calling out humanity on its own bullshit. Instead of the empty nonsense that ChatGPT spews forth, depriving us of water with every prompt.

Started rewatching Max Headroom, which I haven’t seen since it originally aired. Gotta say, of all the post-apocalyptic hellscapes I figured we’d be living in, I wasn’t expected MH to be the frontrunner. It’s as eerily prescient about corporate control as Shock Treatment is about reality TV.

Maturity is rewatching Star Trek: The Next Generation and realizing the vitriol for both Wesley Crusher and Lwaxana Troi was unwarranted.

Do it. I’ve been shaving off my eyebrows for nearly 20 years. It’s great.

Laptop preferred for PDF. I’ll use mobile to augment physical media, but not run a whole game. Only recently acquired a tablet and am looking forward to testing it out.

Feds’ closure of ICE building blocks immigrants’ access to critical legal aid ICE claims it hasn't changed its operations, but immigration attorneys, advocates and families report roiling confusion after finding the Portland location closed.

ICE recently closed its Portland building to the public, multiple sources told Street Roots Monday. The closure may seem like a win for ICE opponents, but immigrant rights advocates say closing the building wreaks havoc for those seeking critical legal aid. ✍️: @jeremiahhayden.bsky.social

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages.

If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

Transparency: I’m not a parent, but I do work in the field of education. Please let our legislature know how important the Preschool for All program is to Oregonians.

I’m glad that Councilwoman Avalos and the other six council members voted the way they did. More police doesn’t equal better safety. Desperate people make desperate choices; proactively deal with that desperation, and you increase public safety overall.

Please read, this is important. Sorry it’s long.

Trump’s move to have Elon Musk step aside wasn’t a retreat. It was a distraction. With Musk’s name out of the headlines, many assumed the controversial Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had quietly ended. It hasn’t. It’s just changed hands.

Fellow GMs/DMs, read the whole thread.

The Trump administration has just canceled a nearly $600 million contract with Moderna that was meant to develop a bird flu vaccine.

Hi folks. 👋 I see you found my IG/FB posts. I migrated here mostly to get away from the mindless scrolling I do on those sites, and maybe post a relevant thought or two. No promises that I’ll be more prolific here, but I’m gonna try being more interactive. 🤞

When are we collectively going to understand that in order to continue moving forward now requires us to forcibly remove the obstacles in the path?

No, this isn’t a subtle political post; it’s an overt one. Our world leaders are failing us. Remove them.

Found myself humming “Escape” (aka The Piña Colada song), and musing that succinctly it encompassed just how wild the 1970’s were.

Then I spent a half an hour nursing a hummingbird back to health.

That’s it. That’s all I’ve got.

Hi Bluesky, I’m Kaebel. Dunno what all I’ll end up posting here, but my first three posted quotes sum up where I’m coming from, where I’m at, and where I’m going to.

“Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its on-going mission: to explore strange new worlds; to seek out new life and new civilizations; to boldly go where no one has gone before!” — Captain Jean-Luc Picard

“Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it. Don't wait for it. Just let it happen. It could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot black coffee.” — FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper

“Hey, now. Don't be mean. We don't have to be mean. Cuz, remember, no matter where you go… there you are.” — Dr. Buckaroo Banzai
