This was the post that prompted it

Maybe someone in the know will be, like, Nah, man, she's pulling the wings off butterflies and grabbing ass in the halls, it's bad. And then I'll have more of an idea what's going on. But "female POC mayor subject of online attack campaign" also seems likely these days.

Because I keep seeing people post that she should step down, which seems like a big ask, and I haven't seen anything substantive about why. Some folks day she sexually harassed someone. Some say she was mean on a video call, which, would they say that if she were a guy? So I'm very skeptical.

I confess almost complete ignorance about Mayor Kaohly Her but I am aware that she's non-white and female, so that automatically raises my skepticism when I hear stories that she's behaving in ways that suggest she should step down. Is she, or is there a lot of bigotry at play? I don't know.

The hackers caused the leaks after Mayor Her sexually harassed them. Of course, that might just be Her-say.

It doesn't matter if this administration is corrupt if nobody is convicted of corruption. It doesn't matter if Trump makes a billion dollars off self-dealing if he's never impeached and prosecuted for it. Laws ONLY have meaning when there is enforcement for EVERYONE, even -especially- the powerful.

I've seen that episode of Star Trek! It involves the transporter and it doesn't end well for him, but at the end McCoy makes a wry observation and Spock raises an eyebrow.

Oh, have a good one. I posted something in 2011, and it went viral under a completely fictitious name, then was later attributed to a former Canadian prime minister. If you Google the first sentence you can find all sorts of things, including T-shirts and posters. I haven't seen a dime of that!

My original 2011 post about "a man fills his apartment with newspapers." I was trying to describe that immense wealth is really no more than a hoarding disorder.

The quote as I first saw it, FREQUENTLY, online. First attributed to "B. Lester" and later with "FREE YOUR MIND and THINK" adding its tag.

Final form - attributed to a former Prime Minister of Canada.

I've always thought it weird that on my first trip to England I got this close to the Queen Mother. Her car actually brushed my leg pushing thru the crowd. There are British people go their whole lives and don't get this close to a royal, and here I am in England for less than a week.

The Queen Mother holds a transparent dome umbrella and waves as she exits her car

Here’s an outrageous story about how Jacob Frey’s administration treats an immigrant they claim not to discriminate against, effectively doing the administration’s bidding & then dummying up for the media. www.startribune.com/immigration-...

Immigration services misspelled his name. Then Minneapolis fired him.

The termination of Public Works employee Darley Herrera has driven a wedge between city hall and the Laborers Union.

How to be a piece of shit as an organization: Panera Bread 1) Pester me with "Where have you been!?*" marketing emails 2) When I try to unsubscribe, pretend an error happened and don't. Repeat regularly. *Answer: I moved overseas.

Subject line of pestering marketing email reading "Hey Bob! Where have you been?"

Error message "Sorry, your preferences failed to save." which I have gotten for the past several months.

His supporters fall to understand that he literally doesn't give a shit about them. There is no one else in Trump's world but Trump. From Herman Cain to Andrew Tate to Rudy to Ivanka and Barron and Melania, he wouldn't stop to piss on ANY of them if they were on fire. Trump only cares about Trump

This is SUPPOSED to be a democracy. The nation's leaders work for US. And when they, or their flunkies, are murdering citizens in the streets, they MUST be removed from power. Instead the President embezzles BILLIONS and Congress shrugs. So, each citizen, what are YOU gonna do about these murders?

ICE murdered two of your citizens in the street on your watch. I suppose you're doing something, but I don't know what. Take steps! Maybe withhold tax payments to the Federal government? Maybe you go carry a freakin' sign in front of the White House? Or drive a bulldozer into the Whipple building?
