I'm glad I learned about that hand gesture and I'm going to tell everyone I know! Good on the person for recognizing it and helping the woman being abused.

A report from the UN says the hole in the ozone layer is healing, and should fully disappear within a few decades. Love this! Imagine what other pollution we could eliminate.

I'm going to post this again for today's open thread, but violent video games are once again in the cross hairs. This time bc of Kirk. If you don't get that connection Google hell divers 2 with the Kirk assassin.

Here's a YouTuber talking about along with some other topics. Tldr. 1A also includes video games

The sight of Sen. Villa running through the streets, shouting like Paul Revere, trying to help her constituents made me cry. God bless her.

Blue states are constructing laws to bypass that and keep it anonymous to those in red states.

Cake Face, a girl I am friends with at volunteer work, asked me to attend a board members event last night--an ACLU presentation by Dream it OK, an advocacy group for Dreamers here in the state. Remember Dreamers? Young people whose parents brought them here without documentation. Obama put them on a path to citizenship and then that orange bag of shit reversed course. Now Dreamers are in real trouble, facing deportation to foreigners nations where they have no friends or family. I mean, what the fuck is up with sending Hispanic people to Africa, it's just cruel.

And fuck anyone who says OUR response to Kirk's death was too vicious. Kirk told people to vote against your right to healthcare, your right to your body, and your right to marry the person you love. I'm supposed to feel bad for calling him a piece of shit? HELL NO. there is nothing more piece of shit-ier than voting against someone's rights to healthcare, love, and life. FUCK ALL Y'ALL MAGAS. You're all pieces of shit.

Not one word was mentioned to anyone. Not a single word. Which is weird, usually when a new tenant arrives there is a big staff invited hootenanny. Not this time.

Wonder why?

These are terrifying words:

The ribbon-cutting comes as the Trump administration has moved to increase collaboration between immigration enforcement agencies and the military.

edit: OH but I did like how Stars and Stripes typed out the full official name instead of the OH SO CLEVER way to get around renaming the base after a confederate.

Make good trouble.

True story: They put the full name on the front sign, with the abbreviated one under it in (). It made the usual suspects grrrr mad because "I thought they were changing it back"

I lol. My sig has the full name because fuck it is why

It is not. It is named after 3 union soldiers. That would be Anderson Pinn and Hill.

The money shot:

“This will undoubtably enhance CBP’s and the Department of War’s commitment to national security through the development of special operations,”

Never mind the chud actually said department of war, which is the unofficial second title and all. But here's a reminder that border violations /are a civil matter.
