a lil confused, but got the spirit
made some oats for suhoor and snacked on biscuits and leftover pizza while waiting for them to be ready. I think you can see where this is going. Nobody to eat these oats but me….

Some guy in France wrote this cozy little book about a secluded French island and I’m over here whining about it

stuck reading the French Nicholas Sparks, not Nicholas Sparks in French but something equally fatiguant

This is the only correct position, and the inevitable response from knee-jerk centrist reactionaries of "it won't work" is not a valid objection. Every member of Congress has a duty to say that what Noem has been doing is not acceptable.
I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.

She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

If you are in mountain or pacific time zones in the U.S., you may want to take a cue from protesters in NJ, who are doing banner drops to catch rush hour commuters. Banner reads : ICE MURDERS WOMAN IN MN

Would be great to see all across the country.

Today once again proved that everyday citizens protesting their government are braver than the titans who own the largest media corporations, run the biggest law firms and lead the most powerful technology companies.

32 people died in ICE custody last year and barely anything was done about it. With the murder they committed today, ICE has further proven that they are out of control and absolutely not working to keep people safe. This is domestic terrorism. Congress must act. #mepolitics

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

As a reminder, arguing with strangers online does not count as community action. The most appropriate response to ICE violence is direct action within the community you inhabit. Pedantry never stopped a man with a gun.

I hate to break it to you, but heavily-armed government militias are roaming unchecked through US cities and shooting human rights observers dead in the streets. That's happening in our country.

The sheer number of videos of the shooting is horrific, but in the vein of what @prisonculture.bsky.social has been saying, it proves how many people cared enough to show up where ICE was and record them. It wasn't just one or two legal observers, and when Good was shot, they didn't abandon her.

it should be illegal to call yourself a polymath, and anyone who does so should be prohibited from purchasing any form of audio/visual recording equipment

Haven’t been in much of a Notting Hill mood lately. Have I found contentment?

I can’t stop buying Nabokov books and it’s becoming a problem

Haven’t watched Notting Hill in a while. But it’s not the right time. Too hot outside.
