You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.

DOJ's response to MN's request for TRO to be able to get evidence of Alex Pretti's murder is sealed--bc, DOJ claims, FBI Agents in MN have been threatened. It presents no evidence of that. INSTEAD, it cites a Jan6er who threatened HIS FBI agent.

I wrote this poem as an homage to Baldwin and to hear it being sung across the world or read in protests has been my own guiding light of hope.

I'm thinking that the entire DHS needs to be abolished.

Inter-agency communication is important. But it's never been a good solution for that, and it had fascist overtones from the beginning.

“Then they shouldn’t have voted for this!”

Bitch, Asheville is a blue college town and the county has gone blue for decades. I am so sick of this “if I pretend disasters only happen to red areas, it means I’m safe because I’m properly on the left!” No. You’re not safe. That’s why we save everybody.

Okay, my sister celebrates Christmas despite not being Christian, her partner being Jewish, and me having done my best to bring her up pagan.

What movies are holiday appropriate but neither saccharine nor overdone, nor too grim for me to get others onboard?

Y'know, if someone was taking a class on evolution, or geology, or most any other science, and the student ignored the actual assignment to rant on about their religious beliefs, it wouldn't even be a question, would it?
