Rest in Power, Alice Wong.

Kinda funny how MAGA didn’t expect liberals to bring “gotta catch em all” Pokémon energy to the Epstein files.

I mean, my support for a politician is based on shared values, not brand loyalty. If they’re tied up in Epstein’s mess, they don’t share my values. I’m not gonna defend them. Easy peasy.

Tax the fucking churches, ALL OF THEM. And backtax them back to Jan 2017.

YouTube video by Hawaiian Council Mele ʻŌiwi Ē: A call to remember who we are and where we come from

Over half of Native Hawaiians now live away from Hawai‘i, yet the connection to home, culture, and identity remains unbroken. Mele ʻŌiwi Ē is a call across oceans, a reminder that wherever we stand, Hawai‘i lives within us. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iur...

The Office of Hawaiian Affairs acknowledges the Governor’s announcement and appreciates the invitation for our Administrator to participate in the Military Lease Advisory Committee. OHA’s role in this group will be to continue examining legally and politically viable alternatives to condemnation, while contributing to a dialogue that fully recognizes what is at risk should the federal government pursue condemnation in a manner that disrupts state rights, undermines historical land claims, weakens the political trust relationship, and disregards the unresolved history of our unrelinquished sovereignty. “It’s important these conversations do not occur in silos or in a rigid, linear sequence,” said newly appointed committee member and OHA Interim Administrator, Summer Sylva. “A responsible and comprehensive negotiation footing requires the widest possible range of subject-matter expertise and perspectives, guided by pragmatic guardrails and a commitment to inclusion. Hawaiʻi is strongest when its leaders confront complex issues together—with transparency, rigor, and aloha ʻāina.” “The idea that condemnation is inevitable—and that discussions must focus solely on valuation—overlooks the viable paths still available,” Sylva continued. “The current leases do not expire until 2029, and statutory avenues exist for extensions through 2031 with congressional support, and beyond that through state legislation. Exploring all options is not only prudent—it is essential to avoid forcing Hawaiʻi into false choices.”

“At the same time, the committee’s work to assess the valuation of these lands should not alarm those who oppose condemnation,” added Sylva, a Native rights attorney. “Accurate valuation serves multiple pono purposes far beyond preparing for potential legal action. For decades, military leases across the pae ʻāina have been significantly undervalued. Conducting long-overdue due diligence on the true worth of our lands is essential—whether the path forward involves new or renewed leases, non–live-fire training arrangements, or other alternatives to condemnation. Responsible stewardship of trust lands cannot wait for crises, particularly when their very purpose is to be restored to the people from whom they were unlawfully taken.” “There is meaningful opportunity in this process—if the Governor and the committee approach it with courage, conviction, and a commitment to leading not from fear but from principle,” reaffirmed OHA Board Chair Kahele. “OHA stands ready to contribute in that spirit.”  

OHA statement. On point. Gov Green is pushing us into a false dichotomy. Hawaii can and must shape the negotiation not just accept the terms Trump admin imposes. Call the governor’s office. Green has national ambitions, make it clear those are imperiled by his actions here.

Spilled beer, on a table surface, shaped in the form of a question mark next to from an open beer bottle.

Question: Why do you drink alcoholic beverages?

I have never drank. It's all about maintaining control for me.
It does not bother me that other people do.

I sometimes wonder if they look down upon me for not being social in that regard.

This is an honest question.
I am missing out on something?

Now I mostly just use it mostly to calm nerves. I love doing it at karaoke.

I almost never drink, actually. My blood family has a few functional alcoholics in it. I used to drink as part of fun at gatherings, but I have a low tolerance for it. At some point, I realized that alcohol makes me feel like shit emotionally afterwards. I decided to extremely limit it.

The image shows a text disclaimer from a Looney Tunes cartoon. The full transcription of the text is as follows: "THE CARTOONS YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE ARE PRODUCTS OF THEIR TIME. THEY MAY DEPICT SOME OF THE ETHNIC AND RACIAL PREJUDICES THAT WERE COMMONPLACE IN AMERICAN SOCIETY. THESE DEPICTIONS WERE WRONG THEN AND ARE WRONG TODAY. WHILE THESE CARTOONS DO NOT REPRESENT TODAY'S SOCIETY, THEY ARE BEING PRESENTED AS THEY WERE ORIGINALLY CREATED, BECAUSE TO DO OTHERWISE WOULD BE THAT SAME AS CLAIMING THESE PREJUDICES NEVER EXISTED."

Still rocks me that Looney Tunes did a better job of handling this history than 99% of politicians, textbooks, and media
