Just read this wonderful passage from @walkerimagining.bsky.social's poem #LANDBACK
"I want the land back, yes
but even more
I want the land to want me back
each the other's missing piece
our jigsaw edges fitting together
in a long awaited embrace"

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.
