‘Parishioners excused.’

That’s how bad it is. A Catholic bishop lifted the obligation to attend Mass because ICE might raid the church.

Mass isn’t required “if a member of the faithful has a genuine fear of immigration enforcement actions.”

The feds should be ashamed. Terrorizing the faithful.

Hear me out, if #TaylorSheridan is looking for S2 material, a Landman/Lioness cross-over where ICE detains the entire oil crew and Lioness has to go fight a facist regime (ours) to free them.

Y'all pick a lane. Then make a little progress in your lane each day.

Every serious, experienced organizer I know is Doing Their Thing. Instead of freaking out about each bit of bad news, we're in our lanes rapidly building dual power infrastructure and networks that don't rely on the goverment.

An Echo of Autumn
“Hey, watch where you’re going!”
“Oh my god, I am so sorry,” I said, placing one hand over my mouth as I stared in horror at the man in front of me. A super cute man with floppy hair and dimples. For once, I was at fault in a collision, and it had to be with this guy.

I live in a small town. Is it the second largest town in the state? Yes. But is that state West Virginia? Also, yes. Huntington gets a bad reputation from the even smaller towns surrounding it because, gasp, unhoused people are allowed to exist here. The drugs! The theiving! The litter! These other towns would never allow such a thing. And you know, yes, these things happen.

At the end of last year I switched from Adobe software to using Affinity, which included Designer and Publisher in the bundle that I purchased.  Now, I've used the Designer software multiple times and while it does not have all of the features that Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator had, it also doesn't charge me $60 a month.  Publisher, however was a whole new experience for me.

This may be the most beautiful sign I have seen at one of these (even though the subject matter is so ugly). The artist who painted it said she started it feeling angry and it was therapeutic. Especially love the bling. #HandsOffLA

It’s been said before, but I’ll say it here. You don’t pay an agent or publisher, ever. They pay you.
