"From Times Square to here in Minnesota's state capital, communist and socialist activists at the nationwide "No Kings" protests escalated their anti-America campaign and openly called for a nationwide economic strike on May 1, an international communist holiday known as May Day, as key Democratic activists joined their call.
At the rally here in St. Paul, organizers, speakers and activists distributed communist literature, waved flags from socialist governments and revolutionary movements, and urged demonstrators to transform the day's protests into a nationwide shutdown of work, school and commerce.
Across the country, from Los Angeles to New York City, pro-communist Americans marched alongside traditional center-left Democrats in an alliance that many mainstream media outlets largely portrayed simply as anti-Trump protests.
In the hours after the protests ended, the activist networks celebrated the demonstrations online. In Los Angeles, CodePink posted video showing its banner in the middle of a protest where demonstrators chanted: "Hey, hey, ho ho, Donald Trump has got to go."
73F / 23C made for a beautiful day to zoom around town on paw-powered transport and do ALL THE FORAGING. Go to work, get snacks, get wine, back to work, opposite side of town to pick up the Berry Processing Agent my dumb pancreas doesn't make, back to den. 8.2 miles of flying ursitude!
Someone posted earlier that Iran's strategy seems to be showing that having the US in the Middle East isn't worth the money being spent on it - to the ME countries hosting military installations. From where my ass sits, they seem to be doing a good job of it.

<Andrew Schulz leaned back into the couch and brought the chin-wag to a screeching halt. “Are you guys, like—do you feel existential anxiety about the war?” he asked his co-hosts. Schulz seemed to be feeling some. “Americans can’t fucking afford health care,” he said later. “They don’t care about what’s happening in Iran!” War hawks have been angling for years for this war, he added. With President Trump, “they found a guy stupid enough to do it.”
Schulz voted for Trump in 2024, after having him on the podcast—a move that angered a lot of liberals. >
If you voted for Trump, you deserve everything coming your way. And the rest of us have to suffer for your intense stupidity, after we warned you countless times about what would happen, so don't look to us for comeradie or comfort.

Somebody should fabricate a giant (fit for Sharty's fundament) bed pan and plate it gold. I'm sure Sharty would be proud to receive that as his new precioussss. Maybe in a few months he'll have to use it daily until he kicks it.
I love that! Back in 2010 when the Wisconsin Capitol was locked down and our reps were pushing their desks out the ground floor windows to meet constituents on the lawn (in February, in the snow) one of the protest cries was "Whose House? Our House!" so some of us threw bathrobes over our coats because this is ALL our home. I ended up on some of the media coverage sitting at a desk out in the snow speaking with one of Kelda Roy's staff.
Saturday night we went to see a Neil Young tribute band and ended up sitting next another couple. The woman was a very chatty ex-Long Islander. Mrs. Monster is originally from Brooklyn so the two had a lot to talk about.
Meanwhile, every second that ticked by just cranked my social anxiety up another notch. I hate being me sometimes.
Looking for that photo for the shelter website that will make somebody stop and say, “hey, that’s my cat!” He’s hard to photograph because he just wants to snuggle and be up in my face.
Cross your crossables for him, please, that he finds the most wonderful of homes. If I were looking for yet another cat, I would keep him in a heartbeat. And if it comes down to another question of euthanasia for him, then I guess we have to figure it out. But I’m still working at integrating the last two into the household, so the timing is not good.
Thank you for the well wishes. I have a good feeling about him.
I know they try at the shelter, but a lot of times adoptable cats are shown through the bars of the cage, and it can be hard to get a sense of their personality. I really hope these help.
He was on a table earlier with a piece of fabric on it that started to slide. I’m pretty sure he thought it was my fault because he gave me a stern look and took my hand in his teeth. Not enough to even qualify as a warning bite, just… Communicating. I told him no and I disengaged, and that was that. He just needs somebody who is not going to panic when something like that happens. He’s very motivated by attention, which in my mind makes him very easy to train.
Those gunships that buzzed the No Kings crowd in Nashville also went to Kid Rock's house for a photo op! Just another day in Hair Führer's America, I guess.
'No Kings' actually Commie plot!!!

Iran has hit a tanker in port at Kuwait's largest loading facility.
Hull damage, possible leak.
Per Bloomberg
Was there damage to the port? Fucked up ports can take months if not years to return to full operational capacity.

All of them need to be shot into the sun with extreme prejudice.
I'm tired of those rancid motherfucking turds.
1. Federal District Court
2. Federal Appellate Court
3. Supreme Court
4. full exoneration
5. History re-written
6. Profit!
The J6 goons are lucky more of them weren't dispatched like Ashli Babbit.

A Neil Young tribute band sounds like fun. I'm guessing the band was not youngsters.

Needed moar genocide.
A presumptive death penalty is fucking insane even before only applying to one class of people.
I... was... was... was NOTHING learned?
And any Israeli settler that murders a Palestinian in the West Bank is also executed, right?
RIGHT?!!!
Crucify him
We have no laws to put a man to death. Come on punches pilot
For aggravated food line standing?
For not moving off that land that Israel wants for luxury homes and golf courses.
Israel is being run by some seriously sick fucks. Worse than what's happening here.
I Dunno. We are winning that competition
We haven't signed a law that gleefully executes people from one specific nation yet.
First Nations have entered the chat.
Yet. Besides, laws?

the second and the last photo's capture him pretty well.
