Long ago ABD in Latin American history. Profile pic's a flag Dolores Huerta gave my dad in the 80s. My most prized item. Slowly moving my photo posting here from Instagram. Occasionally posting links to larger photo sets here from my own domain.

I try to be really cognizant of antisemitism masquerading as anti-zionism. It was kind of a heartbreaking day when I realized I could just absolutely no longer rely on the ADL as a resource for that.

The quoted post inspired me to dig up four Sony A6400 shots I took of barns in Kosciusko County, Indiana a few years ago.

"The cure to how the neoliberal business model has hollowed out our educational and career systems is more neoliberalism in education."
I didn't realize the NY Times had actually hired @nytpitchbot.bsky.social to write articles. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em, I guess.

We would actually be better off with Jost's version of Hegseth than we are with the real thing.

My dog doesn't care about Daylight Savings on either end. So even though I was running late, I have The Vintage all to myself at 8:15.

There is absolutely nothing the US military could do to get him to remove its dick from his throat.

Oracle, particularly, is in disarray. A friend who is a 25 year MySql employee got laid off. Critical projects in another group depended upon his specific expertise. He got brought back weeks later. It was all so chaotic. The left hand doesn't know what the right is doing.

If the last year has taught us anything, it's that the reason "movement conservatives" are so overwhelmingly anti-abortion is their fear of running out of kids to fuck.

I never knew helmets expire. My bike getting stolen a few weeks ago kind of kills the need to replace this one, but if I buy a new bike at some point, I'll make sure to buy a new helmet with it.

I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)

It may not have been "fascism all along", but fascism has been an open and growing part of the coalition since Reagan and Thatcher. A lot of the "never Trump" conservatives are open about how they used to court and try to placate the "wackos" who now sieg heil through the streets in Trump's honor.

The whiniest fucking crybabies in existence also have no concept of consequences for their actions.

The US blockade of Cuba has no legal basis under international law. An island without an air force or modern artillery is not a security threat; it's a neighbour. If the United States genuinely believes otherwise, the UN Security Council exists for exactly that purpose.

A sincere, detailed apology with real reparations for the harm they caused in going along with racists and fascists is the minimum first step to get me shopping with them again, which means I'll never shop with them again.

Four touched up cell shots from last night, but not nearly as edited as you might think. it kind of looked like that. The house shots have the same edit as the sky shots.

I had no discernible reaction to the 2nd shingles shot when I got it (in March) other than a really sore shoulder that weekend. Shingles was a much easier vaccine for me than my covid boosters have been.

Same. I bought storage from google and got their AI "thrown in". And at work all of our MS products have had Copilot shoehorned into them and shoved down our throats.

There aren't many things Target could do to win me back as a customer and I see absolutely zero signs that they're going to do any of them.

An orange cat and a senior dachshund in a pet bed.

This morning when they were standing still next to each other, I confirmed something I've suspected for a while now: Onion is longer and taller than Jasper now, though if recent weighings were accurate, Jasper still has about 5 pounds of bulk on him.

The Liberal Conscience Must Be Fostered With Accurate History A knowledge of the injustices of the past and the reasons for their occurrence is vital to the development of a liberal conscience.

"A knowledge of the injustices of the past and the reasons for their occurrence is vital to the development of a liberal conscience. Such a conscience views cruelty as a great evil and a direct threat to the flourishing of individuals in society." The whitewashing cannot be allowed to stand.

I read enough of that thread to know the initial question is intentionally dishonest. No one is doing it "for justice" and he knows it. Lying, whiny ass sack of shit.
