If the ceasefire holds, neither Hamas NOR Likud leaders should EVER be allowed to be leaders anywhere, for anything ever again.
And a contiguous Palestine should be restored (w/coastline & land 2-3x Gaza & the West Bank), with a DMZ to protect the Palestinians from the Israeli genocidaires.

That’s fair. Wait until they go to The Strand flagship in Manhattan; we’d never hear from them again.

I went to the Contact Us link and got this message. What’s the matter Hulu? Are you and Disney+ getting overwhelmed by the volume of cancellations & fury ever since you decided to toe the #Project2025 line?
Weird.
And buh-bye!

Some folks confuse genteel tones with gentle rhetoric. Kirk was genteel. His rhetoric was violent and dangerous towards women, Black and brown people, nonwhite immigrants, and LGBTQ folks.

Did somebody say it’s (Inter)National Dog Day?!
Well doggone it! Lemme sneak a little shout out to the best Little Big Man-Dog I’ve ever known.
Benson Barktholomew “Bennie” McWhite, I love you! I thank him for making me take 3-4 walks/day, including by and in the river when the day is a scorcher.

I’m not JUST about disgust with the FOTUS Kakistocracy, and naming the -isms and -phobias that are holding the planet hostage. I’m also about cute animals and persnickety flower farmette planning in a 6B mountain town.

Well, gee. I guess if they won’t do the People’s work in the People’s House, then the GOP “Representatives” get to work from home.
Demand those town halls. Heck, hold pop up town halls in the grocery aisle or at Disneyland, if that’s where the “Representatives” are.

Yep. And such is The Paradox of Tolerance.
I can tolerate a lot of people and beliefs but anything that dehumanizes the dignity and attacks the safety of other people - especially repeatedly marginalized people - will have no support from me.

Yep, so I’m pulling weeds, cleaning house, & prepping hoses to put out any fires that careless idiots start b/c it’s their g*d-given right to blow up stuff regardless of whom they might hurt.
Seems an appropriate use of the day. #July4th
