Cville local. Overeducated carpenter. Fascists eat shit, liberation for the rest. The future's looking rough, but hope is our duty.

not sure a bio thing’s always necessary or even wise but I’m bored so here’s a summary of already shared info. I’m a staff carpenter at large institution; have a BA in philosophy and MS in a healthcare adjacent field but that didn’t work out so I rebuild Jeffersonian roofs and renovate offices now.

ok you know what, I’m irritated enough that Jerry Miller’s repeated concern trolling about the local anti-ICE high school walkouts has resulted in multiple social media threats against the students that I’m gonna finally share something fun I’ve been sitting on for a couple of years

this really fucking sucks for the dozens and dozens of service industry people he screwed over, but like there’s no way it wasn’t going to end like this

Something about the confluence of seeing a post about Spanberger ending 287(g) next to one about Homan announcing ICE withdrawing caused me to remember this
emphatically not to distract from the actual, ongoing ICE assault on Minneapolis happening right now, but something that’s been on my mind recently—I think there’s a very nonzero chance Virginia sees a focused ICE assault in the medium term future to punish us for electing Spanberger et al.

This asshole has been trying to stop a second bridge for most of his life, as his father did before him. They have tried everything they can think of, for my entire life, in order to maintain a monopoly on people driving between Detroit and Windsor.

I think if you are able and willing to burn a couple hundred thousand dollars fighting new townhome construction in your hoity toity little village we should be using the state to take more of your money and spend it building public housing on your front yard
Person who commented first says he'll spend "a couple hundred thousand dollars" fighting this development. Must be nice to have that kind of money.
2nd person (who's adjacent) says townhomes aren't consistent with the area. The new townhomes would be 300ft away from ~30 existing townhomes.

haha I wonder if it was Meg Bryce
One of Antonin Scalia's kids allegedly said that she was relieved that her father died when he did, because he would be so "upset" at how "coarse" and "polarized" politics has become, which makes me wonder if Scalia's children have any idea who their dad was www.politico.com/news/magazin...

trump creating the incentive and permission structure for democrats to do insane 2010-era gerrymandering of their own may turn out to be one of the biggest self-owns of all time. dems are now pretty likely to emerge with an advantage from the 2025-26 redistricting wars

the one neat thing about this eternal plague of ice is it makes it very easy to see how many people are just storing their vehicles on public streets for weeks on end without ever needing to actually use them

INBOX: @richmonddsa.bsky.social is putting on a "GET THE FLOCK OUT" benefit show in a couple weeks to raise awareness for the city's upcoming contract renewals for ICE's favorite ALPR vendor. The chapter has been organizing to pressure RVA's mayor and council to cancel those pricey Flock agreements.

What the online leftist fails to grasp is that, no, the entire game is not already lost and what the online liberal fails to grasp is that it does not matter whether or not the next President is a literal fascist, but that it is someone who can successfully halt and reverse this process.
