Early stroll. The argumentative harshness of cold air. Fallen leaves: last autumn’s tattoos. I pretend I am crossing a dry river bed as I cross the road. The first bus turns a corner in slo-mo. Star as a pin on the sky’s notice board.

People want to have their basic needs met.

They want to be paid a living wage.

They want to stop being nickle and dimed by powerful corporations who control so much of our lives.

They do not want Venezuela.

They do not want Greenland.

They do not want masked thugs terrorizing our communities.

16 years of the Citizens United decision has culminated into Donald Trump's second term.

It's been a little over a year and he's already profited off the presidency to the tune of $1,408,500,000.

It's corruption and self-enrichment in full effect.

OK, I have made an executive decision.

He’s in the news because people are rightly disgusted a draft dodger is insulting dead soldiers.

He wants to be in the news. He doesn’t care what for. I’m not sure what the solution is, but keeping him in the news has secured him a second presidency. Maybe we need to stop putting him in the news.

Early stroll. The door handle is slippy with yesterday’s rain. When no-one’s looking, does that footpath sign turn round? The yawning mouth of a bus shelter’s entrance. A slow bike snails by. Is it less dark or are my eyes open wider?

Somnambulation. Just finished reading 'Lord of the Rings' and my mind's playing tricks I'm sure there is an Ent there watching looking out watching for Orcs...

I've been waiting for this.

Independent autopsy of Renee Good is in. It's strong evidence against Agent Ross, given what it means about the second or third shot through the left-side window.

It's the second and third shots that make the easiest criminal case of a willful killing.
Independent autopsy in ICE shooting death of Renee Good released by law firm in civil investigation
The results of an independent autopsy for Renee Good have been released as part of a law firm's civil investigation, two weeks after she was shot and killed by a federal agent in Minneapolis.

Yeah. Kick them out. And in the meantime, before they go, don't allow them to do *anything* vis-a-vis Greenland.
Zack Polanski has said that Britain should expel US forces from the UK if the country seizes Greenland - a proposal 55% of Britons support

Support: 55%
Oppose: 22%

Early stroll. I am briefly defined by a car’s headlights. A red plastic spade leaning against a wall. A passenger on the bus is almost as big as his headphones. It is as though this morning has been found in a secret pocket. That still cat.

Compare & contrast. This is Trump’s demand for Greenland. And this is Hitler’s for the Sudetenland.

There is no difference. The language. The unstoppable need to dominate. The megalomania. It’s the same.

And Keir Starmer’s response is appeasement. We are in that moment.
