Due to a power outage on campus they said they were bringing in a generator. I thought it would be the size of an ice-chest, not a whole-ass building.
Generator the size of a mobile home.

A lot of ppl think they’re psychic. They ain’t. They think we have nothing better than to stand around watching their every move, all day long. If you’ve need something say it, loud, and specific. No hints, or “subtle” ish. Or else you get nothing, and no right to complain. Don’t-do-subtle.

Cops are way too trigger-happy, practically everywhere in the county. This seems like a serious training problem, on top of excessive militarization. They're too quick to conclude "dangerous threat" without bothering to understand a situation and deescalate if necessary, which is their actual job.

No longer going for regime change, ending Iran's terror funding, stopping an imaginary quest for nuclear weapons, destroying military capacity, or any of the myriad other goals the WH has claimed. Now the goal of the Iran war is to get gas prices back to where they were before we killed children.

Low oil prices now ‘goal No. 1’ in Iran war, Vance says, as U.S. threatens new economic pressure
Oil prices rose Friday after Washington threatened an indefinite naval blockade and signaled it would soon intensify economic pressure on Tehran with “measures like have never been seen.”

1. Now-deleted audio shows that Acting AG Todd Blanche privately told faith leaders the DOJ is working to make the 2022 Dobbs decision, which revoked federal abortion protections, “permanent in every single state.” Blanche also suggested a crackdown on the mailing of abortion pills.🧵

Democrats who continue to treat a clearly overtly fascist Republican party as if they are simply equal participants in the democratic process ought not be surprised if people want them to lose the next election too. Collaborators are unpopular.

Trump’s sons signed a weapons deal with the Air Force during a war Congress never authorized. Amazon paid $40 million for a Melania documentary, then won a $581 million no-bid Pentagon contract. The corruption is not hidden anymore. It is the business model. November cannot come fast enough.
