WTAF is going on here?😳

The Naval Museum is bad enough, but NCIS?!? Too much of a coincidence.

Either this is an act of disobedience, a troll or Ruzzia is somehow involved.🤣

Don’t get me wrong, Regime is laughably incompetent, but this is WEIRD.

Libraries, bookstores or the forest trails. 🤷‍♀️

Jonathan Edward Durham & @thisoneOverhere

Mostly I go to the library for books, but also sometimes I just go to exist in a space that's organized, peaceful, comfortable, welcoming, and run by somebody who actually seems to know what they're doing, because that energy is straight-up medicinal

Common thing for fascist political parties beholden to Putler &Ruzzia.🤷‍♀️

🇨🇦Poilievre did same thing in his weird “bring it home” vids during Fed election.🙄 Ruzzian, Slovenian &🇺🇸 images in a video supposed to be 🇨🇦patriotism.🤮

🍁MAGAs eat it up ofc, cuz they don’t even know.😣

Why the hell does Trump’s Department of War keep using RUSSIAN military images? This is by no mean the first time this has happened.

Sadly, thanks to Leonard Leo’s stacking of the Project2025 Supreme Court.😔

Precedent be damned. If Roe wasn’t “settled”, this shouldn’t be either. 🇺🇸needs to impeach kangaroo court judges &expand seats when they regain democratic control.😣

Even my 🇨🇦community FB group keeps falling for Ruzzian troll-bots stirring 💩up by posting how we have town rainbow crosswalk.🙄
It’s privately paid for.

Handy, shows me who to avoid (&block) in my community. But man, it’s just astounding how many grown-ass 🍁MAGAs are terrified of pretty rainbows.😣

This Thanksgiving, we’re grateful for the members of the Canadian Armed Forces serving abroad.

While most Canadians gather with loved ones, they stand on guard — sacrificing time with their families to protect ours. Thank you for your service and dedication.

Smart. There’s other ways you can help &contribute that are just as effective.❤️

Hope everyone leaves kids, dogs at home. Elderly(infirm) &disabled at risk of serious harm fr ICE &riot police too.😔

Will be agitators, ppl need to be prepared &to leave area. Be smart &aware.✌️

Godspeed!

Especially drums, they are SO effective.

🥁🥁🥁🥁

There’s a reason ppl used war drums in the past, they give energy to the ones marching to them, &intimidate the ones who are being marched against.

Kids today have NO idea what Halloween candy used to &SHOULD look like.
THREE whoppers…😣
Candy bars 1 small bite.😡

Shrinkflation means inflation on Halloween candy fr 1975 to 2025 is abt 1 *million*%.🫩
Poor kids (&buyers who’re shelling out).

1st world prob, I know…but it’s chocolate, man.😔

A picture of the size of the Halloween treat sized Whoppers. THREE Whoppers.

What a rip off for this generation of kids (&the ppl who buy them to shell out) .

PSA: There’s a thing on 🦋 where trolls start accounts fully posting anti-tRump, anti-ICE, HRights /progressive stuff. Get lots of followers, incl large accts, THEN start posting MAGA, pro-Ruzzian, anti-vaxx, racist, anti-LGTBQ troll crap.🙄

Just found 3 in my following list &blocked.

Be vigilant.🫩

He def is experiencing dementia, but I think at least some of it is deliberate rewriting of history that makes him look bad, to redirect blame to Biden. It works cuz his supporters also have memory problems &issues w discerning reality.🙄

"Conversion therapy" is a polite name for something that isn’t conversion and isn’t therapy. It’s abuse.

Tied nearly dead to a barbed wire fence in freezing weather, where he wasn't found for nearly 24 hours. He died six days later in the hospital. Human cruelty knows no bounds.

Mrs. Betty Bowers @mrsbettybowers.bsky.social · 1d

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈
