Funny, how the "No Kings" protesters were "elderly white hippies" in August (per Stephen Miller), but are "pro-Hamas terrorists and violent criminals" in October (per Karoline Leavitt).

It's *almost* as if this regime makes its shameless lies up as it goes along . . .
Too many housed residents of #Seattle love to complain about homelessness but basically just want the poor disappeared

This is pretty much the standard ethos of the urban privileged: Call for meaningful action until an encampment is blocking YOUR parking space… then call for cops to sweep it away
Seattle mayoral candidate Katie Wilson has criticized incumbent Bruce Harrell for appeasing housed residents who oppose homeless shelters near their homes. Harrell’s office temporarily canceled a tiny house project last summer after neighbors complained.
In Seattle Mayoral Race, Tensions Between Crackdown and Compassion on Homelessness
Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell has ramped up sweeps of homeless encampments in his first term. In his reelection bid, he faces a progressive challenger who wants to curb them.

Well okay but agents provacateurs generally try to blend in
If a man truly believes that he can do whatever the hell he wants without consequences, he will show you exactly who he is.

Take a picture of yourself at the No Kings rally.

Print it.

Put it in a frame.

Your grandchildren will speak about you for generations to come. You took a stand against fascism. You stood up for democracy. 
Any broad inclusivity movement that centers exclusion as core strategy is doomed to backfire

Coming Out Day is the story of minorities gaining inclusion through allyship with majorities

If your queer liberation story is about excluding your conventional neighbors, you’re just reinforcing otherness
If we want to pull ourselves out of the shit we have to actually do some pulling
they just do shit until somebody pushes back then they come back and do more shit

“Democratic Governors & Mayors need to order their local police depts to arrest any & all unidentified & masked alleged ICE agents.”
ICE targeted an apartment building near my home. Masked agents in unmarked cars. I've said this before. Democratic Governors & Mayors need to order their local police depts to arrest any & all unidentified & masked alleged ICE agents.

This anonymous denial of due process is deadly.

That certainly seems true in West Seattle! When we attended the last No Kings march on Capitol Hill, the demographics were all over the map. Old, young, and everything in between. Thousands of people.

Retired folks have a lot more time (and perspective!) to show up and show up and show up!
On Day One, Trump pardons the J6ers. This is the most obvious response in the world. It’s a fucking alter-call for hate groups
Oof
"We're saving God."

Roll that phrase around your head. Consider the theological and cosmological implications.
Eric Trump: "We're saving Christianity. We've saving God. We've saving the family unit. We're saving this nation. I mean, DEI is out of the window, Benny. You no longer have Colin Kaepernick kneeling for the national anthem. You no longer have Budweiser going woke as hell. All of this is dead."
I’m told that disliking hip hop is always racist

Is feeling nauseous at the smell of product exuding from big hair always misogynist?

Just trying to keep up on the relative morality of visceral internal experiences that externally affect nobody
LOL
Seems the Narcissist-in-Chief is mad about the Time Mag cover neckgina pic so please don’t share it widely

Thank you for your attention to this matter
