Americans! Look what a 77% voter turnout can achieve ! Resistance isn't futile..you just have to make some damn effort. I get so pissed off with those that complain about their political leaders but haven't bothered to vote! You vote for it- you own it. Otherwise STFU.

The polls have closed in Hungary - and it appears that turnout will approach 80%, a post-communist record.

Reports make it fairly clear that ICE detention facilities are worse than most US prisons. And for the most part they're crammed full of people who haven't been convicted of any crime.

This is bad, but also, "laughs in Missoula"
A U.S. map showing that over the past 30 days, almost the entire country was significantly hotter than usual. Nearly all states are colored dark red, which indicates that maximum temperatures were 8 degrees Fahrenheit or more above the historical average. Only a few tiny areas near the northern borders show normal or cooler temperatures.

Keep in mind during primaries and later, during the general election that the same people who brought us to where we are will not be the ones who fix it. Vote accordingly.

Got approached to sign a petition for a new ballot measure. I asked her who's paying for the campaign and she told me the name of her employer. I said "No, who hired them?". She didn't know. Nope. There's a lot of out-of-state dark money trying to influence your local politics. Ask questions.

Accountability brings consequences. And consequences are the only language corruption understands. Money and political power do not outrank the Constitution. They just need a wake up call and it’s coming at the midterms.👇

Ah, so Andy Weir is like... *dumb* dumb gizmodo.com/andy-weir-st...
“I dislike social commentary. Like… I really hate it. When I’m reading a book, I just want to be entertained, not preached at by the author. Plus, it ruins the wonder of the story if I know the author has a political or social axe to grind. I no longer speculate about all possible outcomes of the story because I know for a fact that the universe of that book will conspire to ensure that the author’s political agenda is validated. I hate that,” Weir said. “I put no politics or social commentary into my stories at all. Anyone who thinks they see something like that is reading it in on their own. I have no point to make, and I’m not trying to affect the reader’s opinion on anything. My sole job is to entertain, and I stick to that.”

“For instance, as a lifelong Star Trek fan, it’s always bothered me that there is a presumed ‘responsibility’ within Star Trek shows to talk about social issues,” the writer added. “I just want to watch Romulans and the Federation shoot at each other.”

The latest accurate count for today's No Kings attendance is 8.1 million and counting. They are being very careful with the official count for this one because most outlets are low balling the numbers. Expect a bigger total by morning.
