Porcupines can be a little prickly sometimes, it's in our nature. Especially when attacked. Proud to be #EnemyWithin I'm tired of this JustAsBad nonsense. If you equate Democrats and Republicans I will no longer mute you, I will block you. #470716

"If you have bread and I have one euro, and if I buy your bread, then I will have bread and you will have one euro, so there will be an equilibrium in this exchange ...

But if you have a sonnet of Verlaine or the theorem of Pythagoras and I have nothing, and if you teach me them, at the end of this exchange I shall have the sonnet and the theorem, but you shall also have kept them for yourself.

In the first case we have equilibrium -- this is a commodity -- and in the second we have growth -- and this is culture."

~Michel Serres (1930 – 2019)
French philosopher, theorist and writer

This is #S5 the #LakenRileyAct.
It's a harmful anti-immigrant bill that's making its way through Congress.

It would pave the path forward for Trump & MAGA GOP to target & detain immigrants in our community.
Call your senators to STOP this bill!

The American government's not allowed to spy on us, so instead they buy the information they need from Google and Facebook. The American government's upset at TikTok because they won't sell data to the American government, they're keeping it for the Chinese government.

The jobs numbers for December were better than expected, so naturally Wall Street dropped.

The 1% hate it when things are going well for the 99%.

I have a TiVo. I have to make sure all four channels are not watching this fiasco.

I will not be watching the sad mockery of someone swearing an Oath they have no intention of upholding.

For more than 4 decades, the Assad family made sure the horrors it committed in Hama stayed unspeakable — killing tens of thousands in a savage month-long siege, then hunting those who carried the memory. Now, finally, the survivors can speak. apple.news/ApT9PZtDZTS2...

In Hama, survivors of the Assad family’s first massacre can finally speak — The Washington Post

Bashar al-Assad’s father brutally crushed an uprising in Hama, creating a blueprint for repression. Decades later, Syrians can now start to tell their stories.

Worrisome and loaded rhetoric here.
Poilievre “will fire government officials throughout my administration who are imposing a toxic work ideology.”
Who will he go after? Why?
And “my administration”? Is he running for president?
Sounds trumpy.

There's no surprise that we all know who they're talking about.

Have you noticed he never bothers to claim innocence? He only defends his "right" to act like a criminal.

You clearly do not understand the Dynamics between a husband and wife. Nor the Reagan's history. Nancy got Ronnie following the advice of mystics and clairvoyants. And not in an evil way, she honestly believed that shit and thought she was helping.
