On a quest to be ubiquitous (at least to my closest kin)
- Lukewarm take - if you’re driving a big azz truck but you don’t haul shizz except littles and lattes and you don’t have the skills to park between two clear yellow lines, your other life choices need examination.

- Food poisoning stinks.
- Reposted by tyrone (ty, they, he) martinez-blackICE reportedly shot someone at Portland and 33/34. Mspt saying bullets, could be less lethal 20+ agents on site, MPD and ambulances responding. Helicopters overhead
- Reposted by tyrone (ty, they, he) martinez-blackIf you are not in Minneapolis, It is important that you spread the word how bad it is. Everywhere in the city is seeing ICE. They are speeding, kicking in doors, taking people at bus stops. Yell at your electeds. They are taking daycare workers. Parents dropping kids off at school.
- If we really believe in integration, should we be busing the wyt kids to other neighborhoods where they are the minority? Can schools get adequate resources if tgey aren’t the majority?
- New navy battleship is full of holes and goes in circles staying afloat only because other smaller boats bouy it up - the trumpfboat
- It’s already called the Kennedy! This smuck wants his name on everything?
- Reminder to self: Being principled does not mean being perfect. Do something. Fail. Do something else. Keep doing something.

- Sometimes I fear To miss you Even sitting beside Me in the cold When you are not Here I hold The whisper of your kiss Leaving Warmth on my cheek
- How many y’all think Dom Pedo wants national parks free on his birthday bc he actually doesn’t want anyone there? If no one goes, what is he going to do while no one is looking?
- Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel.
- Saw taking our taxes to fund corporate investment..? How may years before they defraud certain accounts due to political opposition or ethnic background (sorry residential differences)? And do they mean EVERY child born in the U.S. because they claim not all those babies will be citizens.
- This president stay beeaking the law BECAUSE he’s a 34x convicted felon. He is literally the criminal in chief. Remind anyone who is shocked that he takes yet another illegal/unconstitutional action.

- Anyone else put on a song or watch a video because you WANT to cry? No. Just me? Ok.
- Two things can be true: the invitation got lost in the mail AND they didn’t want you there. They didn’t want you there AND you are welcome elsewhere. You are welcome elsewhere AND you are fine staying home. You are fine staying home AND you feel good being invited.
- Can anyone tell me why Apple CarPlay requires Siri to be operational?
- Reposted by tyrone (ty, they, he) martinez-blackImpeach, convict, remove. And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will.
- New profile time?
- Saw an example of how public restrooms are all already trans - a dad taking his daughter into the designated “men’s” room at the library. Between that and changing tables, there are regularly moments when multiple genders are indeed present simultaneously with no one concerned at all.
- Dandruff hasn’t seen A Few Good Men, I’m guessing
- So, it seems like dismantling the department of education is a “just because we want to” operation but this department channels funds and policy that protects students from academic disenfranchisement. Turning schools into labor training camps is wild (sad that may not be an exaggeration).
