"...Oppression is the mask of fear."

The thing about the sudden loss of freedom of speech after a pretty decent 250-year run is that I still don't think there is any logical justification for not releasing files that expose the depravity of pedophiles.

Throwing a sandwich at a cop: felony.

Beating a cop unconscious with a flag pole: tourist behavior.

We said release the files not the accomplices, idiot.

Pre-workday beach break. #beachblooms #bloomscrolling #nature

A light green, curly, almost circular lichen dappled in light and shadow on the smooth gray bark of a tree dotted with smaller lichen patches ranging from green to yellow.

I'm lichen this day.

Hibiscus flower with red center fading to pink, then orange and bright yellow around the edges, dappled with drops of rain.

It is a very sad year to be celebrating 250 years of "freedom." I am thankful for the beauty and peace of nature today. #bloomscrolling

Gray, orange, and white cat looking highly disinterested in politics in her fluffy white cat bed in the library.

Froggy prefers library naps to doomscrolling. #toebeantuesday

Oof. Same.
39 great years! Thanks, Chuck!

Sand covered wooden walkway to the beach closely surrounded by lush sea grapes.

Salty morning air to breath in time with the pulse of the sea.

So… this was supposed to be about Paul Revere’s ride, but the Senator just unloaded about the Trump administration and its Republican enablers. Far more newsworthy than I expected. (You can probably see me shifting to “crap, this was not the interview I prepped!” but the result was memorable.)

"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you." - President Lyndon B. Johnson

I can smell this picture. 😜

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

We’re going to annex Canada and invade Greenland but we can’t request return of an innocent man from El Salvador.

Hi folks: Facebook appears to be taking down my posts. Please remember they are available for free here (no paywall), and can be received by email (also free-- just don't put in your credit card information). I guess if I'm being banned I'm doing something right?

Idk who needs to hear this, but just because something is written in ALL CAPS?
Doesn't mean it's true. 🙄

Around 35% of SpaceX’s revenue comes directly from the federal govt.

Less than 1% of NPR’s budget comes from the federal govt.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

Thank you for this laugh. And reality check...this could and should ALL be happening!!

this is what we should be doing
