So far the "Board of Peace" is Trump, Orban, Lukaschenko and Netanyahu.

Which if you wrote in a satire would be considered too outlandish and sent back.

Danish parliamentarian Rasmus Jarlov speaking to MS NOW on Stephen Miller comments regarding Greenland: "I hope he’s kept away from young women, because that’s the mentality of a rapist. You can’t defend yourself, so I’m going to take you. That’s basically what he’s saying."

It’s our time guys
ICE seems to get completely flummoxed when they’re being yelled at by white men over 35. They kind of put their heads down and shuffle their feet. It’s like their kryptonite.

Somebody go tell ICE that this is mixed precipitation and watch them freak out and try to arrest it.
I am delighted to inform you that Minneapolis has just started to get graupel — a rare precipitation type.

As a small woman I think it’s pathetic to feel the need to carry a gun everywhere to feel safe. If I don’t feel the need how tf do these men that think they’re so big and tough.

BREAKING — Mayor of Lewiston, Maine posts on FB that ICE is coming to the city imminently. This confirms my reporting the agency is planning a surge in the city and state generally.

Lewiston is home to a large Somali-American population, which made up 4.6% of the population as of the 2020 census.

I found out that you can reuse a decades old calendar if its year’s dates line up with the current year’s, so this year I got a lovely 1998 Xena: Warrior Princess calendar. The way they added show events into it is cracking me up.

Our electric kettle died yesterday morning; farewell to its warm blue glow lighting my dark winter mornings.

Hello to our new electronic kettle from Costco, a Sith Lord with a touch screen. *sigh*
