I don't make New Year's Resolutions....I find them to be largely bullshit, and forgotten within days or weeks anyway.

But, I do have an affirmation that I wish to share:

"No such thing as spare time; no such thing as free time, no such thing as down time. All you got is life time. Go."

Hey @907initiative.bsky.social , here's an idea. Food for thought.

How's about instead of spending money on ads trying to convince people to call Dan Sullivan and Nick Begich and ask them to STOP voting for shit they already VOTED for....how about you get behind BETTER candidates in the primaries?

Oh, look, Alaska. That thing the State signed onto? It keeps making mistakes…
#akleg
The Department of Homeland Security has had to correct information provided to at least five states after its SAVE voter tool misidentified some voters as noncitizens, according to correspondence between state and federal officials.

With @texastribune.org
“Not Ready for Prime Time.” A Federal Tool to Check Voter Citizenship Keeps Making Mistakes.
The Department of Homeland Security pushed out the revamped tool while it was still adding data. That led to widespread misidentification, particularly for citizens born outside the U.S.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

FELLOW AMERICANS:

We are NOT powerless. When we raise our voices, united, in opposition, people and CORPORATIONS are forced to listen.

Ring backing down from Flock is just the latest example. We have to keep the pressure on to prevent a police state. You won't be using MY DATA to ensnare anyone.
Well holy fucking shit. Ring cancelled their partnership with Flock. Keep pressure on them to stop volunteering their feeds to state, local, and federal agencies, though, because that part's still going.

Making money off the suffering of immigrants and showcasing dog killer Kristi Noem and the viscous propaganda of DHS and ICE goons is disgusting and that’s exactly what @alaskasnewssource.com is doing. Shame on them.

This is outrageous. Trump is such a cunt. His people are cunts and he is the biggest cunt of all.

Hey @907initiative.bsky.social ...do us all a favor and STOP FUCKING SAYING THAT WASHINGTON is to blame for our problems.

It's NOT Washington....it's REPUBLICANS.

It's Dan Sullivan. It's Nick Begich. It's Lisa Murkowski, too.

Put the blame on the people who FUCKING DESERVE IT! 🤬

Netanyahu's Administration is committing genocide in Gaza.

I want to make my position on something clear - the actions of the State should not tar all Israeli people with the same brush.

Is the State committing genocide? Yes.
Is every Israeli guilty? No.

#FreePalestine #EndTheGenocide
Ben Shapiro: "Israel did not commit a genocide in Gaza"
Gavin Newsom: "I agree with you."
