According to the MN-BCA, on Friday, the FBI notified the BCA and reiterated that they "will not provide the BCA with access to any information or evidence that it has collected in the Jan. 24 shooting death of Alex Pretti" -- nor the Jan. 7 Renee Good or the Jan. 14 Julio Sosa-Celis shootings.

Haven Watch released an Amazon wish list that will help them continue their work. If you have the ability, please consider gifting one or more of these items:

The proliferation of mobile games where your character opens a small business with almost no money and quickly becomes a millionaire is a capitalist tool to devalue labor and promote the myth that low-income workers can easily “pull themselves up by their bootstraps.” In this essay I will

Hello new followers! I periodically *block* followers with:

No user icon
No posts
And this is the real kicker - I need to see, in the last few days, A POST FROM YOU. Not a boost. A quote post will do.
If the ONLY THING you post or boost is political? I will block you.

Stop. Looking. Like. A. Bot.

WUTHERING HEIGHTS is pretty good and anyone who wants to complain at me about adaptation issues, tell me how you would adapt it instead because that's more interesting.

Usual deal.

This is my personal friend and former World of Warcraft raid guild leader, Caz, who y'all helped pay February rent for three families.

It's time to pay the rent for March.

If you've hit your limit - I have - for donating, I simply ask that you spread the word.

Thank you.
Fresh post, same ask. Currently $1215 / $5900 for rent for 3 neighbor families who are sheltering in place due to ongoing ICE terrorism in the Cities. Even if ICE left rn (and they're NOT) these folks have been out of work for weeks and will NOT catch up without our help.

I'm just saying, MY hand looks like this because I had an I.V. in it for cataract surgery. Because it is difficult to put I.V.s in my arms and medical staff always end up placing it in my hands.

Soooooo....

I'm just saying, why is That Fucking Guy getting I.V.s placed in HIS hands every damn week?

But THIS is a DIFFERENT live stage!

One of my Finch daily tasks is Cook A Meal.

Because when you are disabled, as I am, that is a goal, not a given.

(We have a LOT of ramen in this house.)

(For the days no-one can cook.)
