Normally, when I open my browser there are news articles on Bing. Just now? Nothing about the Minneapolis ICE shooting. NOTHING. I expected a Breaking News headline. Not even a mention of it happening.

"There is an amazing history of Christian activism, but it always manifests itself in resistance to Christian Authoritarianism." --John Fugelsang.

MAGA Christianity may be defined as both authoritarian and "Jesus-free," and its about power.

Alright, so I've been afraid to say this out loud, but I think after today, I can say it: In the first Battle of Los Angeles, the good people of LA County have prevailed. We beat ICE back. 1/

I'm also curious how this affects high school sports. Because according to a facebook friend, their daughter apparently has to fight for a spot on a flag football team against mysterious trans players "taking spots from actual women" (his words, not mine). Such absolute bulls*&$
Want to know how manufactured the rage against trans athletes participating in NCAA sports is?

According to the NCAA, there are approximately 510k athletes in collegiate sports, and less than TEN identify as transgender.

Fucking 10.

For the record, that is 0.0000196078%

I was at this game. I also had the opportunity meet him when the company I was working for rebuilt his townhouse after the Oakland Hills fire. He was the nicest guy, soft spoken and smelled really good. It was obvious to me how much he simply loved the game of baseball. This is a big loss.

If we couldn't have him as VP, can we at least keep enjoying the treasure of Governor Walz to get us through these next 4 years. We all need dad to tell us we're going to be okay.
Best gift ever. Thanks @jimmykimmel.com

From the end of the article "Yoon tried to take power with soldiers, police, and helicopters — to take the country back to the 1980s. But these aren’t the 1980s. He should have seized cell service first"

Here's to hoping the US cell service holds up when this happens here.

I was preparing to pitch an op-ed on the nationwide protests calling for President Yoon's resignation, aiming to provide global context amid the limited international coverage.

Given the urgency, I’m sharing it now. I didn’t expect events to escalate this quickly. #SouthKorea #Democracy

In the matter of just a couple days I think I've been able to re-create my list of accounts I used to follow over on Twitter before **gestures wildly** all that happened.
