Did you win your #pinball league division? Did you win two league divisions? I did.

Is my naysaying opinion that modern #MTG is basically Fortnite on cardstock a legitimate critique or just an old dude yucking on someone's yum?

Statement from Tristan Kern de Gonzales

Husband of Jonathan Joss

My husband Jonathan Joss and I were involved in a shooting while checking the mail at the site of our former home. That home was burned down after over two years of threats from people in the area who repeatedly told us they would set it on fire. We reported these threats to law enforcement multiple times and nothing was done.

Throughout that time we were harassed regularly by individuals who made it clear they did not accept our relationship. Much of the harassment was openly homophobic.

When we returned to the site to check our mail we discovered the skull of one of our dogs and its harness placed in clear view. This caused both of us severe emotional distress. We began yelling and crying in response to the pain of what we saw.

While we were doing this a man approached us. He started yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He then raised a gun from his lap and fired.

Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not threatening anyone. We were grieving. We were standing side by side. When the man fired Jonathan pushed me out of the way. He saved my life.

Jonathan is my husband. He gave me more love in our time together than most people ever get. We were newlyweds. We picked Valentines Day. We were in the process of looking for a trailer and planning our future.

He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other.

I was with him when he passed. I told him how much he was loved.

To everyone who supported him, his fans, his friends, know that he valued you deeply. He saw you as family.

My focus now is on protecting Jonathan's legacy and honoring the life we built together.

If your concern is how someone coped with trauma or how loudly they speak when recounting injustice and being ignored by authorities then you never truly cared about my husband.

Jonathan saved my life. I will carry that forward. I will protect what he built.

I found a problem on Tom McClintock's website. A #GOP #Representative from California only shows a Town Hall from back in 2009. So I filed that information at mcclintock.house.gov/contact/webs... because clearly the website must be broken if it's only showing Town Halls from 2009, right?

We're arresting judges and deporting 2 year old citizens and people still think that this is working and that it's somehow beneficial? Fuck ICE. Abolish ICE. And fuck anybody who says otherwise.

A plane banner that reads, "FOLSOM IS TRUMP COUNTRY"

A plane banner that reads, "FOLSOM IS TRUMP COUNTRY"

My understanding is this tour is trying to prioritize areas where they're more likely to activate people in red and swing areas. Even though Folsom is in CA, it's deep red CA. Picture attached of plane flying a banner over the rally here yesterday.

Hell yeah. My first two Bernie rallies were Cara's and then the one for Quist in 2017. Was in Folsom last night, and am so glad there's at least some people out there getting people on the ground.

Any idea how many people were there? I was at his Rally in Cara's in 2015 and worked the one for Quist in 2017 and last night in Folsom I thought, "No way Adam's center is going to be able to handle this."
