Hey Americans, feeling politically powerless? You have an election tomorrow. Fascists are targeting those boring state and local positions and using them for everything from abortion restrictions to book bans to criminalizing trans healthcare. It's up to you to stop them.

Just documenting the brief moment between a freshly raked yard and the deluge of fresh leaves that will land immediately after.

I have a chat room on Matrix chat called "Funktastic chat". This chat is for...

People who enjoy chats.
People who are lonely.
People who aren't lonely.
People who want to converse without it being public record forever.
People who need a break from politics and religion.
People who want to make friends.
And much more!

Just click the link, sign up, (I recommend "Element") go thru a convoluted verification process, and BAM you're in.

Look forward to seeing you.

The judge is now granted a 15-minute break. Hoping cooler heads will prevail.

I'm telling you, if you or I had done any of this we would all be in jail. This is the problem with our justice system. The rich and political can act like a fool in court.

A late friend of mine would have said there are rules and then there are rules and clearly hear that case applies.

"We Are Subjected to Genocide": Palestinian Poet Speaks from Hospital After Israeli Strike Kills Family

There’s a four point buck in our front yard in #Baltimore City!

Edit: after taking a closer look at the picture (to compare to a picture of another, similar-sized buck that was spotted in Hampden!), it turns out he’s actually a six-pointer!

Today, movements, organizations and activists - #Jews and #Arabs - have published a joint declaration for #peace, calling (among other things) for a #ceasefire and negotiations for a political agreement.

Please help to share the declaration to make the voice of local activists heard and known!

"There are no winners in war. Only peace will bring security."

The full text of the #DeclarationForPeace can be found here:

@kyle Do you (or importantly your son) have access to a Raspberry Pi? They have a ton of resources for teaching programming e.g. https://www.raspberrypi.org/learn

Once libraries are nonexistent any modern fascist movement wouldn't even have to burn books, but flick one switch and they'd be remotely deleted from your Amazon Kindle or similar digital “library”.

Capitalists are already building the infrastructure to do this through DRM, so stop believing tech is apolitical - the defunding of libraries and paywalling of information are all part of this.

"The dehumanisation of the “other”, and the desire for revenge over justice, is a feature not simply of Hamas policy. It is woven into Israeli perspectives, too, and from the very top"
Another excellent column from Kenan Malik that I missed yesterday.

WARNING! Air alert in All of Ukraine due to missile hazard!

The takeoff of the Russian MiG-31K was recorded.

The MiG-31K is a carrier of the Kh-47m2 Kinzhal supersonic missile, which poses a threat to all regions of the country.

Note: Alerts like these frequently disrupt the lives of the Ukrainian people. On occasions the Russian aircraft take off and return to base without launching missiles. At other times, people are killed in the country in seemingly random locations.

This has the effect of terrorising the population, and the Ruzzians hope that Ukrainians will be worn down and 'accept' to freeze the conflict, allowing Russia to re-arm and attack again when they are in a stronger position.

We must not let the Russians succeed - President Zelensky is calling for increased assistance with air defence capabilities as well as continued support for the F-16 training and preparation programme.
