Didn't Dominion just get bought by a MAGA Conservative? I have a bad feeling, on top of all the others...

Since I'm single again, I wonder if I'll be able to receive love, kindnesses. Will I see a new partner as another person taking more away from me than they give? I suspect I'd over act as the giver and they'll fall into the roll as the receiver- my self sabotage repeats... hope not, but likely.

ICE kidnapped a 7th-grader with a pending asylum claim and spirited him out of state without notifying his parents, seemingly with the cooperation of the local police in Everett, MA.

A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo.

The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview.

“My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese.

From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett.

The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.

OUR tax dollars are being used to bail out Argentina, OUR troops are being put on the ground in Israel & OUR soil is being used by Qatar for a military base of their own.
While OUR government is shutdown.
Anyone who believes OUR so-called “president” when he says he is “America first”, is an idiot.

He should be smarter than this, but he's always felt entitled and blames others for his issues. College grad with a double major too. He's worked awfully hard to ignore the truth...

I have a brother that owns his own truck- of course he's a maga... he says there're "lots of loads going everywhere, but I just can't get em lately."

CasualObserver71 @casualobserver71.bsky.social · 4d

So true, after all... They don't trust facts, lol

CasualObserver71 @casualobserver71.bsky.social · 4d

Don't worry- *they* will buy your land at pennies on the dollar. They used you... it's yet another "short sale" economy they'll use to grab more, more, more.

Then, for some god forsaken reason, you'll vote for them again. And those bail-outs? They won't do it every year that China doesn't buy...

Man, Ziggy Marley puts on a fantastic show!! What a fun night- a great vibe with everyone in the place. An oasis for a moment when we all needed it.

At 54 I'm healthier and more fit than I was at 24. Results are typical ;)

I've been sober nearly three years, but I might have one that day as well.

Asserting my right to have a voice- to share my thoughts & opinions- that they matter. Even if I'm factually wrong- I can still share them as perceptions, ideologic opinions or feelings about how I perceive the world around me. I have the right to work it out- work through it no matter if different.

Labels are the issue. Both sides see these people who died as heroes that died fighting a war worth winning. I think we'd all agree that they fought against fascism & blatant authoritarianism. Against genocide.

The labels. The terminology. The talking points & rhetoric divide us from seeing this.

I'm guessing if I consumed a steady diet of Fox News, I'd be conditioned to see anyone who disagrees as an enemy and evil?

I posted this on my FB @ 3pm yesterday. I instantly had 2 knee-jerk reactors explode on my page. One was still posting his outrage at 2am. The other refused my 3 questions. Is fascism bad? Did these veterans fight against fascism? Is racism bad? She called me stupid &questioned where I get my info.
