Hey this is good news, everyone! See, when USers gather to protest the absence of a 2028 free and fair election, and Pope Daddy has them Tiananmen Squared, the families of the squished will get 5 million oopsie bucks because precedent!

Several restaurants pushed back on Tuesday. Here’s an actual article instead of a tweet:

The United States has been dodging the ICC since Bush the Younger yipped out. Membership and retroactive accountability is long overdue, and hopefully it will start with ICE.

Stop it. It’s bad enough we have to wade through nearly two years of campaign assaults prior to POTUS elections. The spectacle of the last inauguration was just 14 weeks ago, and we’re fucking exhausted. Just stop it.

Holy shit it’s real

New Oklahoma History

The Godly American citizens of Tulsa peacefully objected to criminal mobs of African thugs stealing their jobs and robbing them of the wealth that was ordained to be rightfully theirs by The Lord Almighty.  These brave Patriots gently restored the Greenwood District to its White Christian Glory on May 31 and June 1, 1921. Hallelujah!

It’s not too late.

Starving Chinese kids were why I had to gag down my peas.

The Dirty War has arrived.

My husband is like you, and also wishes for the absolute silence of my mind. But you’re right about green grass - I wish I could visualize happy memories or even picture the people I love.

Buckle up. You’ll discover we have some great advantages, but you may feel cheated out of some abilities, too. You can DM me if you have questions.

Total aphantasia? Same here, but:

No intrusive thoughts, ever.

No visions of, or reliving, trauma.

No sad-memory sounds or tastes.

No facades, so no energy wasted.

And if you got the SDAM bonus, you can re-discover all your favorite books and movies like you never read or watched them before!

The US has always been bleak, unless you’re wealthy and designated white.

Here are some statistics to suck up:

• Fireworks started an estimated 31,302 fires in 2022, including 3,504 structure fires, 887 vehicle fires, 26,492 outside fires, and 418 unclassified fires. These fires caused an estimated six civilian deaths, 44 civilian injuries and $109M in direct property damage. (Note:  Total may not equal sum because of rounding error.)
• In 2022, U.S hospital emergency rooms treated an estimated 10,200 people for fireworks related injuries; Over half of those injuries were to the extremities (29% hands and fingers, 19% legs, 5% arms) and 35% were to the eyes or other parts of the head.
• Children younger than 15 years of age accounted for 28% of the estimated 2022 injuries. These injury estimates were obtained or derived from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission’s 2022 Fireworks Annual Report

As far as knowing “exactly when the fireworks are coming”, I hear mortars exploding for a solid two weeks in June and July, another two weeks around New Year’s Eve, and throughout the year at various events and during random neighborhood parties. There’s no way to predict the concussions, and millions of people have PTSD.

In addition, the 4th of July is the deadliest day for pets and wildlife.

It’s always important to question everything - but don’t stop there.

First, check the source and citations. This news org claims to be progressive and it actually checks out as left leaning. Citations are legit.

Next, read carefully for context. While the article discusses the amount conservatives have pumped into their candidate, and even musk’s $12 million donation plus his million dollar voter payout scheme, the focus is on all the details of dem/liberal/left contributors. So it’s meant to be a positive story of coming together against the project 2025 machine.

It’ll end up somehow being blamed on Dems. Remembering the time Congress overrode Obama’s JASTA veto, then the GOP immediately blamed Obama for not warning them harder.

Along for the debacle were Energy Secretary chris wright and senator mike lee, the Utah douchebag who specializes in helping trump sell fracking and oil drilling rights at national parks.

I’m sure they’re not interested in raping Greenland, though.

Watching such a personal aspect of this fucking atrocity might be more than most of us can bear, but we all need to see this. Nobody has the right to look away.

Along with Fiji Water and Teleflora.

Basically anything touched by Stewart Resnick, the wealthiest American “farmer” and water pirate.

CEO Kelcy Warren, a Texas billionaire and huge trump donor, has been trying to take out environmental groups for years.

On a completely unrelated note, I wonder how Luigi is doing?
