Some good news for tonight - take a moment to really sit with it and let it refuel you to help you take one action to fight back, to prepare for November to protect your community. It's those little moments of success that will add up to the fuel we need to save our democracy.

I think I’d ask my partner to bury it or burn it.

We have the data. My longest columns have more readers, who read longer, and who share them the most.

I can only imagine

The ones with total amnesia

&

The ones who love Fetterman, Sinema and who want MTG under a big tent

Because I can’t believe how often these guys play the same repetitive game and how often it works.

Bodycam video contradicts ICE claims in fatal shooting of U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas Video of last year's fatal shooting of Ruben Ray Martinez obtained by CBS News appears to contradict claims that Martinez was shot by an ICE agent because he "accelerated" and "intentionally ran over"...

DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."

But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."

'It breaks my heart': Epstein victims memorial outside gates of Zorro Ranch removed Roadside memorials, traditionally known as descansos in New Mexico, are protected under state law.

Unlike the stain Epstein brought on New Mexico, a roadside memorial placed outside the gates of the former Zorro Ranch to honor victims of the notorious sex offender has been wiped clean. The action could constitute a crime -- desecration of a roadside memorial is prohibited under state law.

All of this stuff is fundamentally about the erasure of consent. At the core of these products is the assertion that your very existence is a tacit agreement to feed the machine.

06.03.2026 21:49 πŸ‘ 127 πŸ” 25 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 2

Silicon Valley runs on erasure of consent. Consent is friction. Inefficient and not binary. It does not compute. It’s tech’s kryptonite.

I just saw a little film of a baby chameleon born and break out of its sac/placenta thingy on a tree.

Out of what is probably not called a chameleon vagina - but maybe?

And its just tree crawling instantly - almost cute but I had to do additional research before assuming it was possible

Most people also won’t finish your 500-word article. So write at whatever length is appropriate for the subject.

Graham Platner timeline and lies Graham Platner timeline and lies @capitolhunters.bsky.social / @capitolhunters Jan. 5, 2026 (updated Mar 3) Contents Summary - lies about tattoos Platner timeline Issues / Inconsistencies Why Pla...

This thread is not about whether Platner is a Nazi. It’s about how he lies like a toddler when he’s cornered. And that’s enough. He’s not electable, and Susan Collins knows it. You can too, if you can read this thread, or this 18-page document. 2/

And Their Wings Touched Each Other β€” Martha Crawford - What a Shrink Thinks I need to take a breath sometimes. I need a birds-eye, angel-eye, cosmic-view sometimes. Just for a moment, so I can keep going.

Here is a long essay.

I wrote it gladly and received a lot from writing it whether anyone thinks its too long to bother with or not:

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

with every bad thing that's happening right now children are getting the absolute shit end worst of it

And who can help it?

Once all those slurs start filling in there is nothing anyone can do to stop them!

Consecrated Women in Rome Heal With St. Hildegard The community prepares meals for retreats, cooking the same foods they themselves consume, following closely to the principles of the doctor of the Church as they offer hospitality to souls.

Heart wine sounds delicious
