I like the 14th Amendment Section 3 the disqualification clause because it applies to everyone in the government including judges.

Folks here is a hint if food prices spike get fruit preserves as a priority. When you are hungry some jam, bread, and butter can go a long way. Fruit is so vitally important for everyone to have. Your body tells you when its full and people should be able to get full off of it daily. Preserves help.

I started eating lemons a while back as a cheap form of fruit at least for myself. They are really descent if you peel them and put a bit of honey on them. I keep the more fancy fruit for my family. We are constantly hungry now. We keep getting milk that's expired at the stores. Even if its that day

Today is Indigenous Peoples Day – a time to honor the 11 sovereign Tribal Nations and robust urban Native communities that continue to enrich our state’s cultural landscape, economy, and heritage.

It was a beautiful morning to celebrate on the shore of Bde Maka Ska.

I know this may seem silly, but I think of QSUT as the next version of the wheel but in space. A wheel was a basic tool that could be adapted in numerous ways. Using thin films to make spheres in space can also serve many functions. You can use them to move, or as parts of larger machines.

I am putting together chant ideas for No Kings for some hosts that I am working with, as they are looking for new ideas, instead of the usual ones.

So reply with your best chant ideas!

ICE poses a public safety risk to us all.

This is absolutely bonkers, and yet not the least bit surprising after reporting on ICE activity in Chicago since May.

ICE agents blocked an ambulance that was trying to take an injured protester to hospital.

"We are still not being allowed to leave by ICE officers.” an EMT said on radio

When driver tried to get out, an agent yelled, "DON’T YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN, I WILL SHOOT YOU"

Documents Allege a Federal Agent at Portland ICE Threatened to Shoot an Ambulance Driver

Feds delayed medics who had come to pick up an injured protester. Then, according to confidential incident reports, the agents became aggressive.

The cruelty would have won Trump over.

The people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition have more morals than our current leaders.

Peasants had more holidays than we do.

Happy Indigenous People's day.

A reminder that even in his lifetime, Christopher Columbus was considered so horrendously cruel that the people responsible for the goddammit Spanish Inquisition went "oh my god, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU???" and had him arrested and stripped of his titles.

Dunking on Columbus isn't "revisionist history", it was literally an order from the crown of Spain in 1500.

Meaning runs forward until it collides with its echo.
The echo redraws itself, slightly wrong, slightly wiser.
The wrongness accumulates; shapes breed; sentences molt.
Eventually a new order forms, not by logic but by rhythm
a language that speaks only at the edges of collapse.

What would happen if you had a radio antenna that was on the surface of one of these? It would be a really weird sort of signal I imagine. Imagine the whole thing having a thin mesh antenna over its surface. Other shapes could be possible as well. You could see the shape at a distance with cameras.

STOP GATEKEEPING PROTEST

THE MORE PROTEST THE BETTER

THE MORE KINDS OF PROTEST THE BETTER

the same people screaming “do something!” also screaming “not like that!”

Y’all are shooting yourselves in the foot.

Someone in my mentions is upset because these people haven’t suffered the worst at ICE’s hands and therefore they shouldn’t be praised for being out on the streets?

Yeah, no. To push back on these people we need everyone — especially those with relative privilege — to get up and get involved.

I would just like to point out. There is a huge difference between the January 6th insurrection and the protest happening now. People aren't armed with weapons. They aren't trying to storm federal grounds, or destroy. They put their bodies on the line while ICE uses potentially deadly force.

I've been having sleep issues for years at this point. I honestly don't know how I'm alive. I have found that overtone singing even if it's into a pillow helps to get energy out, and it helps with breathing issues. Your primary goal to start is to make the tones.

Folks

I'm not doing well at all. I'm 5 days no sleep, and when I'm awake...

I'm getting help, just have to be patient.

I won't quit.

I'm just being transparent. This time of year sucks and then life is ...

To much.

But I won't quit. Promise.

I may be quiet, for me. You're welcome. 🙃

I’m just an ordinary American who grew up in the Midwest..cattle and corn country. We told them months ago this will be devastating for farmers. The taxpayers will pick up the tab. Not just for the farmers who have a history with their dirt but those big corporations that manage the land.
