Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

This picture really is a great summary of what this *word I try not to say anymore*-ed ass administration has done to America. While we haven’t quite collapsed yet, the seeds have been planted and it seems more likely than not to me. Never, ever vote for a fucking republican ever again.

two tweets from "Nick Adams (Alpha male)."

first one says "alpha males watch football at hooters and play 36 holes of gold with the boys"

second one says as an alpha male height sits with his "legs spread wide open"

I'm going to try and communicate with my Republican colleagues in a new way.

Some old classic footage of Canadian Texas tornado. Still one of my fav tornadoes.

I am willing to send these CSVs to anyone that wants them, I don't have the reach to show people what is happening and the kind of hatred this "Christian" platform is allowing.

As of today when I went to scrape the latest donations, GiveSendGo has disabled comments on the Shiloh Hendrix campaign, but other campaigns that are for actual good causes still have messages.
In the post below this I am going to attach a screenshot of some of the names people are donating with.

I've been following the Shiloh Hendrix situation closely since it is in my home state. As of now she's raised over $560,000 on the GiveSendGo platform for calling an elementary school kid the N word.

I have a CSV of all donations + messages up to last night. I'd like to get it to someone.

HAPPENING NOW: The Justice Department has missed a 5pm deadline to file details about Kilmar Abrego Garcia's whereabouts and efforts to comply with a judge's otder to facilitate his return.

Still waiting to see if they're just a few minutes behind or not planning to file at all

Social media is hard. I think I’ve alienated half my Facebook friends by being an annoying never Trumper. X ain’t worth opening. Bluesky still doesn’t feel natural to me. I really hope something feels solid to use when chase season makes it up here.

Quick phone edit of what I’ve been up to tonight - Tim Walz held a town hall in Eau Claire, WI to get out the vote for the Wisconsin Supreme Court race that Elon Musk has already spent $13,000,000 attempting to influence. I could listen to Walz calling Elon a dipshit every single night of the week.

Can always count on the migrant snowy owls we get here in Minnesota to pick the most beautiful perches. Very majestic #birds

β€œIt was a bust”

Nope. Multiple significant tors and fatalities occurred with at least 37 tornado reports so far.

Just because you didn’t get your disaster porn in a heavily populated area doesn’t mean the forecast was a bust. Some of y’all need therapy.

Seeing posts from people I know voted for Trump talking about being scared of losing their dream job. I want to be mean, petty, vindictive, but I think this probably had to happen. This current wave of conservatism has to end sometime, hopefully careers and lives being destroyed is the catalyst.

That sounds so cool. I’ve only ever seen them once, let alone never dreamed of flying in one.

Got a photo pass for one of my favorite local hiphop artists tonight. This is such a saturated and tough market to break into but I’m excited for any opportunities I can get!

Growing up I remember people used to make fun of us millennials. Now I realize we’re the generation that knows how to tell information from misinformation. We’re intelligent. We’re kind. We can feel empathy. We’re good. We need more millennial politicians to save America. We are the only hope.
