One minute in Kyiv.

Underground talents today.
Just a small reminder - the city lives.

Poem by Loryn Brantz beside a painting of a hummingbird. The poem encourages resistance through love, faith, education, community, and joy.

Peaceful and restorative Sunday to everyone. May we all see the good, the strength, and the love around us. It's there. Resist through continued joy and never surrender our humanity. #Hope #Resist #Sunday

Inside ‘Alligator Alcatraz,’ detainees report relentless mosquitoes, limited water Without permanent structures, electricity or running water, logistical headaches have emerged at “Alligator Alcatraz.”

Solzhenitsyn wrote repeatedly about the use of mosquito torture in early Soviet concentration camp detention on the Solovetsky Islands. If you use the same nasty ingredients, you're going to bake the same cake.

Let's suppose that pizza was actually a huge, gigantic pizza. Expect an entire family to eat pizza for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for 7 days straight? Someone with diabetes or high cholesterol gets sick, he'd be all, "All these people eat is pizza! What did they expect?!"

So he changes the names of things, pressures someone to put sugar in something, criticizes celebrities, and plays golf. Rotten employee of the people. Fire him.

btw, I believe always being in the limelight is part of his PR strategy. Out of sight, out of mind. He wants us CONSTANTLY thinking about him. Hence photos of him as the pope, or as Superman. So nothing ever overshadows him. Especially wholesome people.

You know, when working with children like him who don't want to leave a spot, sometimes you have to fib. Tell them to follow you to something bigger, like a special stage just for him, or an ice cream bar somewhere.

I read this a few days ago and still can't stop thinking about it. A must-read, a first-hand account of the recent Kerville flash flood written by a survivor. Harrowing, to say the least. #KervilleFlashFlood #Texas #WeatherDisaster

Question: Why have the MAGA cult and Trump's minions been goosestepping and swallowing every propaganda talking point to rescue Trump at every turn. But NOW they're starting to wonder. Why is this a breaking point for them?

The Texas Flash Flood Is a Preview of the Chaos to Come Climate change is making disasters more common, more deadly and far more costly, even as the federal government is running away from the policies that might begin to protect the nation.

"The country faces a larger and more daunting challenge, because this disaster — like the firestorms in Los Angeles and the hurricanes repeatedly pummeling Florida and the southeast — once again raises the question of where people can continue to safely live."

Hmmm. But Trump says anyone asking for accountability is evil, and Abbott says anyone asking for accountability is a loser. I wonder at what point that kind of mind game stops working on MAGA and Republicans.

That would be poetic.

This sums it up. Thanks for nothing MSM.

A very interesting read.

Holding people accountable isn't about blame. It's about making sure this doesn't happen again.

Very well summarized. The natural event wasn't political, but the lack of response systems in place? That IS political.
