This tiny Eurasian Pygmy Owl gave me a fierce #StareDown. I took this image at a raptor rescue facility at a castle outside of Prague. #BirdOfTheDay #EastCoastKin #birds

Clearly she didnโ€™t pay attention to when he was on the ground and the people in the air were being โ€˜electrocutedโ€™ working on the grid. Sheโ€™s always clueless and classless.

Guessing maybe 18โ€ or a bit more? According to weather reports we still have 6 more hours of snow. The puppy hopes not.

This is sarcasm right? We no longer have a free press in this country. They lie without batting an eye and not one person from the press pushes back. Not. One.

Well, Fuck me, theyโ€™re talking about rolling blackouts in Southern Illinois due to the storm. Also, now calling for 14+ inches of snow. Gee, thanks for that. Stay safe everyone affected (which is most of the country). โ„๏ธโ„๏ธโ„๏ธโ„๏ธ

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Yearโ€™s Eve. And like Renรฉe Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need yโ€™all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

She is a total embarrassment to my state. She had to hitch her wagon to MTG and BoBo but nearly as smart.

Itโ€™s not difficult since they have zero things that I canโ€™t find elsewhere.

They are sending roving bands of masked thugs with the stated goal of kidnapping 20 million brown people to transport them to any country they can pay to take them. All this has been cleared by The Stolen Court.

This is not deportation.

This is ethnic cleansing.
