I still ride horses but always wear a helmet now. Never did get into the bike jumps, though my oldest was a little daredevil. Fortunately by the time she came along, helmets were cool 🤦🏽‍♀️

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

Shocking: a man urinates on the main altar of St. Peter’s Basilica.

WTF. The world is full of lunatics. It must have been a MAGA supporter, right?

Revenge for Leo speaking out against Trump and his fake christian followers?

Anywhere, anytime ordinary people are given the chance to choose, the choice is the same: freedom, not tyranny; democracy, not dictatorship; the rule of law, not the rule of the secret police.
