I’m a sucker for a show about a group of friends.

I don't believe in God but there are women in the states who are dating men from ICE to get photos of them without masks and that's as close up a saviour I need 1/2

With alt text.

So rage-inducing. If I said everything I'm thinking, I’d get banned (and I've already pushed my limit, I'm sure).
Page from The Guardian. Photo of ICE kidnappers detaining people. Text: Armed US immigration agents drive off with toddler after arrest of father Maanvi Singh Masked, heavily armed federal immigration agents arrested a US citizen in the parking lot of a Los Angeles Home Depot store, then entered his car and drove away with his toddler, who is also a US citizen, in the backseat. The child's grandmother said the incident had left the whole family shaken. "Tam devastated by what has happened to my son and demand an explanation, she said at a press conference on Wednesday. The 32-year-old father was picked up during a major enforcement operation at the Home Depot in LA's Cypress Park neighborhood on Tuesday morning. According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), five undocumented immigrants were also arrested. Later that morning. Maria Avalos, the 32-year-old's mother, got a call from an unidentified number. It was agents with the US Border Patrol, asking her to come pick up her one-year-old granddaughter. "We didn't know what happened to her while she was in their care, and they wouldn't give us information about when my son would be released or where he was, Avalos said at a press conference on Wednesday. Avalos said she still has not been able to speak to her son to find out where he is being held. The incident was captured on video and first reported by the Los Angeles Times. Avalos said she had to wait for hours at an immigration office in downtown Los Angeles to take custody of her granddaughter, and was made to provide a birth certificate. "My granddaughter didn't even know what was happening. She's too small. She didn't know what was happening to her father, she said. The DHS has alleged that the 32-year-old "exited his vehicle wielding a hammer and threw rocks at law enforcement while he had a child in his car". The agency did not respond to the Guardian's questions about why agents drove away with the child rather than wait for another family member …

went to a networking event for professionals of color. spent most of the time roaming around the museum.
Artsy statue of Sasquatch FORES TH FORESTS OF THE WORLD connect us all. There's a whole world of forests out there beyond the Pacific Northwest-from the cold boreal forests of Russia to the tropical rain forests of Brazil. Each one is a unique ecological wonder, offering gifts to the people who depend on it. Yet, despite their differences, forests the world over face similar challenges. Every morning, I bring food and leave it on stumps, to acknowledge the ancestors. I've fed them every day for the last 30 years. Sasquatch knows we feed him like he feeds everyone, he comes here to eat and then goes back into the next realm.

occasionally, there are some solid posts on LinkedIn
LinkedIn post by Ruhin H. Photo of him standing next to Zohran Mamdani. Text: This one hits differently. Zohran Mamdani - New Yorker, South Asian, Muslim, son of immigrants — is now the Mayor of New York City. I've known Zohran long before the campaigns, when our conversations weren't about power or politics, but about purpose — about what it means to build something for our people in a city that didn't always see us. Watching him rise from the streets of Astoria to City Hall isn't just inspiring — it's deeply personal. For those of us who came from immigrant families, who worked to belong while refusing to blend in, this moment is proof that representation can carry both humility and strength. Zohran leads with empathy, intelligence, and courage — the same values that built this city in the first place. Proud to call him a friend. Proud to call New York home today.

Risqué costumes then came into the picture in the '60s and '70s, amid the gay-liberation and second-wave feminism movements. A rise in queer Halloween parades in major cities, particularly in San Francisco's Castro district and NYC's Greenwich Village, created a safe space for much of the LGBTQ+ community to dress up in over-the-top ensembles. Simultaneously, the second-wave feminism movement made way for a sexual revolution that redefined women's sexuality, which was often expressed through their fashion and beauty choices.
