Yikes. I was driving to work and I saw a man riding a Mad Max looking ass motorcycle with the word g#yim in large font bright yellow stickers on the side of the gas tank. On the back of the bike? Small child, perhaps 5-6. We pull up to a stoplight at Groesbeck (50mph multilane road) and

..this piece of garbage starts pulling between the lanes of cars waiting at the light and races off in front of everyone. Kid’s feet didn’t even reach the pegs right. At least he had a helmet I guess 🤦🏼‍♀️

Bought some hydroponic lettuce. Codes checked out🤞🏼Washed it thrice whilst chanting in the moonlight. Smudged those greens. May the odds be ever in my favor.

The usual GOP suspects. I don’t need to check their voting records. I’m well aware they don’t believe in anything except unbridled capitalism and grifting.

My husband’s family is from Calabria and this is spot on. Working the mines in WV and getting paid in “scrip” was a step up for his dad and grandparents and they were absolutely not considered white, Even after moving to Detroit.

Samuel Alito's dad was born in Calabria, Italy in 1914, which was a completely failed state shithole at the time. You either spent your life farming dirt or got killed at 16 working for an Ndrangheta underboss. Now his son spends all day panicking about uncivilized Haitians.

You know who else has never assimilated? Everyone who keeps flying that fucking Confederate flag.

Tom Emmer: "Minnesotans are so afraid that you're gonna call us a racist, you're gonna call us an Islamophobe. You know what? I'm done being even the least bit careful. Somalis don't assimilate. And if they don't assimilate, then they should go the hell back to where they came from."

I’ll take every ray of hope I can get.

How could BANANAS save some BAT species from extinction? Let's talk about the devastation caused by White Nose Syndrome, and share some good news. White Nose Syndrome has killed > 6 million bats since its first discovery in 2006 in little brown bats (Myotis lucifugus) near Albany, New York.

I haven’t been posting at all because I’m so frustrated and angry all of the time anymore that I just want to scream and swear. Everything is so fucking stoopid with two o’s. I can barely function. Just constant rage.

So pro-life they will fucking kill you.

This came out yesterday and should be bigger news. They will literally kill women, infant and children, their own base, but billionaires get to be trillionaires. wapo.st/4g7mKf0

We are doing vegan Minnesota wild rice chili today. I’m also making roasted potatoes because we need to use up the potatoes. Everything sucks but we can still eat well.

I haven’t been posting much at all because of the horrors. Just reading my feed takes it out of me. Anyway I recently stayed at The Siren Hotel in the Wurlitzer building with my bestie and all I can say is go there if you get the chance!

I see a few Michigan names in this article. I hope they never know a moment of peace.

A WIRED analysis of DHS records identified dozens of specialized federal agents who used force against US civilians during the largest known deployment of its kind in US history. www.wired.com/story/border...

This is amazeballs.
