Minus a couple much colder outdoor jaunts since the 'ice storm' Petey spent maybe 45 minutes completing 1.75 laps around the backyard. He is very copacetic tonight.

Junior isn't allowed outside very often, but he is equally adorable inside too.

3x Trump voter: I really want to apologize. I'm looking at this awful picture of the Obamas...He takes bribes blatantly, and now he's being a racist blatantly. He's pathetic as a president, and I just want to apologize to everybody in the country for supporting this rotten, rotten man.

Palantir is not welcome in Durham working with the police to compile data. The Mayor (Leo) kept pushing this program to finally he had to give up. It helped he lost his rubber stamp majority last November. @democracyoutloud.bsky.social @50501nc.bsky.social

Thank you Durham for supporting peace today. And no war in Venezuela. We illegally attacked and kidnapped a head of state. Congress was not informed. All for one man's ego. @codepink.nc @democracyoutloud.bsky.social @ed4d.bsky.social @50501nc.bsky.social @randompammit.bsky.social

Today Trump 'launched an official government webpage dedicated to publicly calling out journalists and news outlets whose reporting the president disputes.' He is also repeating that his opponents should be hanged. Thank you Aaron Parnas! @aaronparnas.bsky.social

Yesterday morning this miracle appeared over central Durham. The photos are taken at 3 schools and 2 Home Depots. Because that was where people were protecting other people. Fortunately no further things occurred. And the community resistance showed strong and true.

Last night I witnessed Earth's Greatest Enemy, by journalist and filmmaker Abby Martin. The US Military is the culprit. The pervasiveness of the culmination of the military industrial technological complex is omnipresent.

Organized by refusefascism.org, thousands of Handmaids march through DC on the anniversary of Trump's win in a "Trump Must Go Now" protest. ✊🏼

Yes. More of this.
Maybe I should file a complaint with the FCC against the Trump White House for editing his unhinged 60 Minutes interview.

It will use the exact same language Trump lodged against Vice President Harris.

What can one say...this is beyond comprehension...it is evil. The journalists represent us all. Thank you @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for amplifying this violent incident.
Five days ago, an ICE agent shoved a woman asking questions about the detention of her husband.

Today they attacked two journalists.

We cannot accept or normalize what has now become routine violence at 26 Federal Plaza. It has no place in our city.
