The claim that left-wing politics exist in the US is an illusion. There is no "Left" in America.
That's how we get Sanders calling on the very institutions of US politics who enthusiastically helped bring fascism upon us to now end it. As if that's still possible with a fatally corrupt SCOTUS.

Trolling around a closed Santa Monica Blvd, normally 110% dedicated to cars, with other cyclists and pedestrians, reminded me how much nicer life will be in Europe, where the infrastructure definitely ranks cars 3rd priority behind cyclists and pedestrians all the time.

🏳️🌈 Happy Pride 2025! 🏳️⚧️
It started early this year! Came up to #WeHo to go to TJ's and biked right into the parade set up for tomorrow, glitter ball welcome booth and all!
After 40 years, I'm really gonna miss this place.

I don't usually repost tweets here. Making an exception for this gem: German Foreign Office schools Marcio Rubio in democracy and Germany's constitutional commitment to preventing rightwing extremism from ever taking the reins of power again.
👏 Sit down, Marco. F you and your borders drivel. 👏

Which is the Portuguese translation for a popular German pastry called "Berliner" (literally "of or from Berlin"; it can also refer to a male resident of Berlin).
It's a pastry typically filled with jellies, jams or custards. No wonder I recognized the taste.
This is what it looks like:

Hello BlueSky friends and followers!
If you like tasty Euro pastries, Portuguese 🇵🇹 and German 🇩🇪history, I have a thread for you.
This pastry is a brand new product at TJs in L.A. It is deliciosa. Since I'm moving to Portugal and it tastes like a German pastry, I got curious and found a story:

This is a good time to reread a classic. This is my copy from 1988.
HST's stuff back to the 50s explained US culture to me like nothing else did after I moved here in 1982.
He also predicted the rise of christo-fascism in America with spine-chilling accuracy.
He took his own life in 2005.

The maker of Ozempic, Novo Nordisk, is a Danish company.
American consymers can expect more of this as the full impact of trump's tariff fuckery hits the fan of (perfectly predictable) consequences.

Greetings, fellow US immigrants. I initially posted this on twitter in 2017:
What to do (and not to do) when ICE enforcers show up at your door.
Of course back then, many of us thought the law and legal rights still mean anything in the US.
Now? Not so much. Fascism sucks.
