They/them. Queer, agender, panromantic. Unrepentant nerd. Writer, reader. Jack of all fandoms. I follow a lot of NSFW stuff so deal with that on your own time.

Every time I see someone yammering about abolish ICE / policing and how DEEPLY UNPOPULAR it is, I want to remind them that the GOP abolished Roe v. Wade and that was also deeply, deeply unpopular, and here they are, in charge of everything still.

Larry the Cat is 19. Still in post, still in good health. It's going to be a big deal when he goes. I'm serious. He's the steadiest thing they have left.

This was planned more than a year ago, along with a consulate in Alaska (which, as you may know, is part of the US). They were planning to go in November but had to postpone due to bad weather. Pretending that this is standing up to Trump is gaslighting.
This is the heart of our Arctic foreign policy and the rationale for the official opening of a Canadian consulate in Nuuk, Greenland in the coming weeks.

But come on. The Trump admin just makes stuff up based on ideology and fraud and it's not a conundrum.
