The right, literally the instigator of violence creation 95% of the time, acts like they are always the exclusive victims of it. Demanding the left is violent, as they prison build and face boot, begs the question?
Are you selling it to yourself to feel better about doing it?

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters — the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. — are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.
NEW: Metadata from the “raw” Epstein prison video shows approximately 2 minutes and 53 seconds were removed from one of two stitched-together clips. The cut starts right at the “missing minute.”

Crockett: Earlier someone was talking about cities being hellholes. Los Angeles contributes almost 20 billion in taxes. That’s more than all states in this country except for four.

Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted. To join me in standing up for the freedom to read, go to pen.org/action. @penamerica.bsky.social @topshelfcomix.bsky.social @idwpublishing.com

4 slabs I cut to make cabochons later: 1 and 3 are Crazy Lace that I will make free form pendants out of, 2 is a beautiful slab of variegated Tiger Eye, and 4 is a central Texas something that I liked the color of. #bluewizardrocks #agate #agates #crazylaceagate #tigereye #lapidary #cabochon

The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.
