I love Ft. Benton! Such rich history! As a history buff, I've visited several times. I am encouraged to read this!

Very few people here on Bluesky have the SLIGHTEST CLUE about communities in north central MT, but Fort Benton is having a #NoKings rally. It's the 4th one that I know of. It had to be moved to later in the afternoon (1:30 I think) so we can honor my much loved brother-in-law.

Jared Vielleux Memorial Fire Hall Dedication. Saturday, Oct 18, 11 am. Open house for newly remodeled and expanded fire hall immediately to follow. Hamburgers, hot dogs, and drinks will be served. Please join us in celebrating the completion of the new fire hall while honoring the memory of longtime volunteer firefighter and fire chief Jared Vielleux.

This really, really was his true calling.
As a manager, he could have smelled his free meals while anticipating consuming 10000 calories that day while bossing minions around & stealing from the till.
He would have his dessert McFlurry while cooking his franchise books.
He would have been happier.

This will make more sense than anything else you read today:

“He had hot fries waiting for him from McDonald’s ... And then he had a Filet-O-Fish, a Quarter Pounder, and a Big Mac, and I think he combined two of them,” said [RNC Chair] Gruters.

Ok folks...a friend of mine needs help.

He's going to a "No Kings" event on Saturday and has two inflatable costume options:

1. Godzilla. Sign would read: "No Monarchs" (cause the titan secret org is Monarch, get it?)

2. Uncle Sam Bald Eagle. Sign would read: "No Kings, Just Wings"

Which one???

We'll never see that "loan" repaid. Every entity that bailed out Argentina never gets it money back. Argentina just finds another wealthy sucker to invest in them so the wealthy sucker's government will bail them out again. We'll send them more 💰in about 6 months. That's how long it's been lasting.

I'm feeling hopeful Montana has 24+ #NoKings rallies organized for Oct. 18.
While it doesn't seem like much compared to blue states, when you look at the numbers for all the states that surround Montana (ID-WY-SD-ND - all red like us), we are having double the rallies. Same basic demographics.

Life Investors Insurance Co. tried that with me in 2008.
They paid for my travel to a "seminar". When I arrived & realized it was a cult indoctrination camp, I left. They told me that I would need to sell at least 4 policies to pay for my travel. I told them to fuck of-sue me. They didn't.

California just banned employers from forcing workers to pay a debt, fee, or penalty to leave their job.

Bosses have increasingly been trapping workers with debts incurred in training and other exploitative fees.

Now that's illegal in the nation's biggest state.

If Pope Leo can convince the bishops (who function like members of Congress - i.e. push their own agendas while ignoring the masses they should serve) to do the right thing and get their hands dirty, this disillusioned former Catholic might just start supporting a Pope!

Farrukh @implausibleblog.bsky.social · 2d

Pope Leo says that American bishops need to be more vocal and support migrant communities from being abducted by ICE in US cities

"Important that we as church give a message of hope in the midst of these horrible struggles, what's going on in some cities in the US"

"The church cannot be silent"
