Religion is poisonous.
So many reasons to be angry and sad at what the USA has become - but this one sickens me the most - about the loss of basic humanity in that country.
Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.
No one has heard from you in 111 days.
As vigil, I’m posting a photo or video of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

The Rob Ford movie,
‘Trainwreck: Mayor of Mayhem’ (Netflix), is well worth a watch.
Tons of news footage from way back, reviving lots of unpleasant memories.
But one comes away with a weird sympathy for the torments of Rob, and a chill from the sociopathic older brother in whose hands Rob was putty.

Trump’s travel ban hits Senegal’s national women’s basketball team, which was planning to have it’s pre-competition camp in the U.S. for the 2025 AfroBasket competition in Ivory Coast.
There was talk a week or so ago that sports teams would get an exception to this horribly racist travel ban, but this administration tells constant lies.
We should expect visa denials to hit teams that qualify for the World Cup, no matter what the White House (or FIFA) claims.

This statement from Jonathan Joss's husband is heart breaking.
No, headline writers, he wasn't "killed in an argument with a neighbor." He was *deliberately murdered* for being gay right after his dog was decapitated.
Bet the murderer calls himself a "Christian."
THIS is why Pride is important.
