Let’s see… since I’ve been here since December 2024 and I have yet to do one of those “introductory posts”, I guess I’ll do one now.
1. I am a former “Florida Man”, I grew up in the Florida panhandle; also referred to as “Lower Alabama”.

Y’know, there’s a strange irony to white people coming around to the idea that the people in power will sic their dogs on them, just as quick as they would black or brown people within several days of MLK Day.
Like, we’d been told for years this would happen, and now we’re believing it.

I always thought the end of the world or America would be caused by some hard bastard that resembled Ed Harris in The Rock, not this collection of sniveling weirdos, fame-whores, and deranged morons.
I mean, fuck, even Putin’s fame-obsessed.

it is funny how all the fictional monsters we imagined taking over the U.S. for the last 30 years are objectively better people than the current regime. Give me Skeletor, please. Cobra Commander wants to run shit? He can hardly be worse than what we're rockin' today. It's worth a shot!

Both of my teen daughters go to Boys & Girls Club after school, because we live out of district and it’s too far for them to walk home.
I keep meaning to tell them to let me know if ICE shows up at their school or Club, because no one is fucking with those kids.

I got in late last night. First thing this morning, I saw cars following an ice vehicle down the street, honking at it.
Later, we didn't drive more than three blocks before we found people defending a childcare facility. (The idea that people have to defend a childcare facility... let that sink in)

More like I’m just trying to breathe through it.
Talk to your friends, people. Pick up the phone, shoot a text or DM if that’s all you have.
This shit is dark, and I have hope for better days.
It ain’t gonna be easy though.
And stop whining to non-Americans. We gotta deal with this.

I'm scared too and I think everyone has a right to be. Really trying to keep doing my best but man oh man
hey I like that we're all posting thru it but I also wanted to say, in case anybody else is feeling it, that I'm pretty scared and genuinely think that we've passed a real rubicon in the past week or so and that being at the mercy of a handful of dumbfuck lunatics really does a number on your soul.

La Fogata in Salinas, CA.
It went out of business in 2020 or 2021.
One of coworkers took me there for lunch over 20 years ago and I’d never had Mexican food like that before.
The sopés were soooo good.
Hell, Salinas has so many good Mexican spots.

Abigail Spanberger was told to throw trans youth under the bus during her campaign. She refused to do so.
She won the election by 15 percent. A dominant victory. A landslide.
She was just sworn-in as the 75th Governor of Virginia, the first woman to lead the state.
