Hi hello it's the Owl you know and love. I was getting self conscious about posting on the other account with endless reposts and randos.

BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

Definitely some sleet falling and I'm guessing that's the 15 mins of snow I was blessed with.

Alex Pretti was an ICU nurse serving veterans. He died trying to protect protestors being assaulted. A group of anonymous & masked men fired chemicals into his face, beat him, disarmed him, and shot him in broad daylight in front of witnesses. Then his government smeared him & defended his murder.

Well, it’s not quite as bad as @nameshiv.bsky.social’s rice truck incident, but I just figured out why my recent nuts.com order was so unusually expensive. I apparently ordered 11 bags of chopped candied orange peel instead of 1. Anyone need peel?

What do you do when you accidentally order 8 1/4 pounds of chopped candied orange peel? Make Candied orange chocolate biscotti, of course!

Might be good for ICE observers to start wearing GoPros or Dashcams as makeshift body cams instead of just holding phones.
And streaming off-device so they can't be tampered with by agents.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.
