People rarely "get me"... but dogs? I've lost count of how many "not usually friendly to strangers so fast" etc. dogs who've instantly taken to me, & me to them.
No idea why, and I don't care why. Probably an autism thing... zero dishonesty in communication on either side?

I sat with her till owner came back, stressed & apologetic (seems they had no choice but to leave pup for a bit) & shocked to find her calm in my lap
"She's usually terrified of strangers"
"dogs get me" never lifting my eyes from pup.
She thanked me, pup licked my face & they went on their way

Took the garbage out. There was a little pup outside, leashed to the building, clearly terrified, tail tucked HARD under her, shaking & whimpering.
I sat down next to her, offered my hand, after a minute or two, she crawled into my lap and curled up 🥰
First time I've felt anything but gloom in weeks

Status of emotional stability, and my ability to regulate;
Just wept openly on a crowded train because I got fed a video on TikTok that was just playing a little chunk of Mozart’s moonlight sonata
So… NOT FUCKING WELL! 🥺

One way or another, they intend to defeat us and make us another slave state.

If the United States decides to declare war on its own people, so be it. They can't defeat an insurgency overseas and they can't defeat one here

ICE is fighting (and losing) a classic low-grade insurgency in LA.

Now is a good time to bump this. It makes it extra hard for the National Guard and soldiers to fire at you if you are literally waving the fucking stars and stripes flag.
Using the American flag to symbolic effect at protests against the Musk/Trump regime isn’t appealing to fascism, and it is incredibly counterproductive and stupid to believe to is.

As others have noted, it’s truly wild to see Terry Doughty write this. He is one of the most extreme MAGA judges appointed in Trump’s first term, author of many wacky, hard-right rulings reversed on appeal. When even he is appalled by an illegal deportation—it’s a sign of something. Wow.
NEW: A federal judge raised alarm Friday that the Trump administration appeared to have deported a 2-year-old U.S. citizen to Honduras with "no meaningful process" — even as her father was fighting to keep her in the country.

Trump was handed the US election because too many people stayed home and didn't vote.
Don't make the same mistake, Canada. Every vote makes a different. Use it if you're eligible to do so.

UPDATE: ICE is wildly unconcerned about where this man is and no one will tell me, his registered attorney. The universal answer so far is "let's wait and see where he ends up." This is deeply off.

My detained client was scheduled for a bond hearing this AM in a MA immigration court. He wasn't brought in, and he and his case have disappeared.
I then received this notice of activity on a nonexistent docket in which his name was changed to "N/A"
It's all happening a lot faster than I expected
