In case it wasn’t clear what kind of person the new Speaker Mike Johnson is, here is an OpEd he wrote advising that states should “discriminate” against “homosexual conduct” and suggesting they pass laws around “sexual conduct outside marriage.” He is a Christo-Nationalist zealot. Of “The Handmaid’s Tale” variety.
All of these can be prevented from repeating if we enact a permanent ceasefire now.
I'm a human rights lawyer running for US Congress IL-11. I call for ceasefire to save lives. My opponent refuses ceasefire, even now. He agrees with me that Israel is engaging in violations of international human rights law. But while I call for justice and ceasefire, he refuses as the atrocities continue. That is unacceptable, unjust, and immoral.
Silence is not an option. We demand justice. #CeasefireNOW

In The Iraq War, 40 countries stood side by side with the USA to ensure Saddam was removed.
We Europeans fought in Iraq, not because WE felt threatened, but because a Republican President in the US told us, HE felt threatened.
Today, we feel threatened by Russia. Not because of a flawed intelligence report on weapons of mass destruction, but because Putin is killing Ukrainians on the battlefield every day.
And at this critical moment, Republicans want to hold back the aid?
Shame on them.
The Panthera pardus tulliana, commonly referred to as The Anatolian or Asia Minor Leopard, inhabits Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Armenia, The Caucasus, Georgia Iran, Iraq, Southern Russia, Pakistan, Turkey, and Turkmenistan. They are the world’s largest subspecies of leopard, reaching lengths of 62 inches (5.1ft.) and weigh 130 pounds! However, the males can reach 160 to 220 pounds!
After loosing the last of our cats a month and a half ago, and saying we’ll see how we go without a cat for a bit, today we met a cat who’ll be joining us at the end of Jan/early Feb.
#catsofmastodon meet “The Mighty Floof!” (name may be subject to change 😉)
This incredibly sweet boy, purring louder than the TV … just farted on me. I have never had a cat who cropdusts this much. EVER. You’re lucky you’re cute, #Roger. #CatsOfMastodon #Caturday
Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
