The video only affirms: she’s calm, she is clearly turning to avoid them and drive away at a reasonable speed. Before that, her partner is verbally protesting and recording law enforcement, which is legal, then peacefully disengages to leave. And they still say his “life was in danger.”
The fact that the Trump administration looks at a video where the victims final words are “I’m not mad at you” and the shooter seems to say “fucking bitch” after killing her, and thinks, yeah, this looks good for him, is amazing.

My #SteamDeck has been repaired and is on its way back already! Hopeful that it's completely good to go for at least a couple years, haha. And back in time for our vacation!

Welp. I packed up my #SteamDeck and sent it back for an RMA. I'm thankful they are taking it in, as it was 1 month past warranty, and suddenly the battery just stopped charging. Couldn't keep it on unless connected.
Thing was always in its case, or in my hands... very odd.
Miss it already.

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

Here’s a look at what happens when the power goes out in extreme cold.
Pimicikamak Cree Nation was without electricity for nearly five days after its only power line snapped, forcing about 4,000 people to evacuate.

The leader of the conservative party of Canada cheered on the illegal bombing and invasion of Venezuela until he realized a few days later it affects international oil prices and now is demanding the country fast track pipelines to compete.

It is the position of the Trump Administration that its agents can come into any state and city in America (let alone other countries) and kill people and that state and city have no jurisdiction to inquire about it.

It takes an enormous amount of courage to stand there, keep filming, and scream "What the fuck, you asshole" at someone wearing a badge who just shot and killed one of your neighbors in cold blood.
I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK
I’m eating lunch, I’m having a panic attack, I’m charging my phone, and then I’m going back out to try and keep my neighborhood safe.

Never let a single goddamned person on the Right ever claim again that they’re the party of law and order without laughing in their lying face.
So Capitol Police officers were assaulted and injured on Jan 6th, the White House today is blaming them for the violence, and the people who attacked them have been pardoned and are back to mock and abuse them on the 5th anniversary.
And the GOP is the party of the police? Really? REALLY??

The discussions about "how much money would it take for you to return to the office four or five days a week?" often gloss over how many expectations are placed on women, people or color, parents, as well as people who are disabled, neurodivergent or have chronic health conditions.

US refineries are built to process heavy crude of the type only found in Canada & Venezuela.
The plan here is all part of Trump's ongoing bid to destroy the Canadian economy & force us to submit to annexation & being a vassal state.
