My fridge is busted for another week, but I'm really trying to get myself back into a mode of enjoying cooking/eating... Give me your fully shelf-stable autumn meal inspiration, please!

Yay, Predator: Badlands is fun as hell. Tight writing, splendid action, & a cornucopia of strange stellar critters. I just love going to the cinema for an alien adventure!

"Expressing your first amendment right is not a conspiracy and dissent is not a crime. This case is not a conspiracy. It is a political prosecution to silence dissent."

Migrants at largest US detention camp face foul water, rotten food, congresswoman says
Detainees at the largest U.S. migrant detention camp endure foul-tasting drinking water, rotten food and inadequate healthcare, according to a U.S. congresswoman who called the tent facility in El Paso, Texas, "inhumane."

I spend a lot of time fantasizing about the design of utopian solarpunk future societies, but the reality is that building community by improving green spaces is available to us now!

I had a lovely morning picking up trash with @katmabu.bsky.social campaign supporters in James Park. Be the change!

Just heard the word "mumblecore" for the first time in 5+ years and felt my brain jump back to Prepandemic Era. Holy cow.

The regime is once again pushing further to erode rights & silence their political "enemies"; now they're charging peaceful Chicago protestors including a congressional candidate w/ accusations of intimidation & conspiracy. This is clearly meant to frighten activists & waste campaign funds. Hell no.
I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) says he has been denied 4 times to see what is going on inside the Broadview, IL ICE facility:

"Something's going on in there that they don't want us to see. I don't know what it is, but all Americans should be asking the same question."

Qatar is an authoritarian monarchy and the top cotributor of co2 emissions in the world per capita. It permits stoning & lashing, builds cities with slave labor, and has outlawed homosexuality & criticism of the government.

Inviting them to build a military base in Idaho seems... weird and bad?

Cowardly gestapo trash has been seen in Chi today. They wont stop with immigrants. They are normalizing the warrantless, anonymous, violent snatching of anyone they deem a "danger to the homeland" while actively labeling peaceful protestors, democratic politicians & trans folks as violent terrorists
