@fromjason Yeah, he’s a pretty fragile guy. You probably made him feel uncomfortable by sharing a brutal and inconvenient truth online. That’s when he unfollowed me, too.

But, hey, you’re still worth a link on his blog (https://kevquirk.com/blog/what-kinda-blogs-do-you-read)! Talk about coffee or watches or computers and you can be his bestie forever. Talk about any real-world problem and he’s *out*.

Weak fucking sauce.

TIL that the “mobile lounge” shuttles at IAD are each named for a state.

This means that if they want to expand the fleet, DC and Puerto Rico have to be granted statehood first. I don’t make the rules.

An array of airports people mover shuttles, each with a two letter state abbreviation (MI, GA, NV, HI, etc) painted in red on their chassis.

An overhead view of a circular multi-use basketball court painted in green and red. The court is symmetrically divided into three separate playing areas, each with a hoop, free-throw lane, and three-point line. The white court lines create a visually striking geometric pattern resembling a peace symbol. The scene is bathed in bright sunlight, casting long shadows of the basketball hoops and a tall lamp post at the center of the court. Two people are visible near one hoop on the right side, engaged in a game. Lush green trees surround the court, adding a natural contrast to the vivid colors of the surface.

I love #Mastodon for so many reasons. But when it comes to race politics, whew boy. It's clear many still view yourselves as the default. It's like a stench. And POCs can smell it a mile away. That's why there aren't many here.

Mastodon is uniquely uniformed on race but is the most confident of the contrary. It's a dangerous mix. Race is our achilles heel. A small group of bad actors could tear this place apart in a weekend

This #federation will never survive unless we fix this

Canadians and Europeans, I'm begging you to stay out of American politics, especially stop telling Latinos how to react to #ICE kidnapping family members. I understand your entitlement knows no bounds and Latinos have been living under your government's thumbs for so long that you see us as subservient. But we don't need your direction. Donate your money, your bodies, amplify Latino voices. Latinos have been fighting for liberation from your countries for many years. We don't need your guidance.

Our library has opened a stick library. I needed you to know this.

Dokk1 Aarhus Main Library. inside. Beyond: a white sign on a far wall: Bibliotek. 'Library.' To the right: the edge of a shelf with a plant hanging down. In front of us, about a metre high, a nice wooden display board. It is made of horizontal planks, smooth and light brown, with wooden hooks fashioned into them. Placed on each row of hooks, like valuable swords in a museum, six nice long slim curvy sticks. On top, a sign (in English, even though this is a Danish library): ‘Stick Library. Take a stick. Leave a stick.’ There is no further explanation and nor should we seek one. It is enough that this stick library exists, here, now, before us, for our pleasure, here in this library.

They will show images of a burning car as proof that a protest is a 'violent riot'. But remember, mere property damage is not terrorism nor is it lawlessness.

For instance, this was Philadelphia after a Super Bowl win (Not loss! Win!). You know, 'boys will be boys' as long as it's about football.

If #ICE was in Vermont locking white people in cages, the most "reasonable" centrist-y lib would be out here burning down their local REI. So don't let them gaslight you into believing that decorum is important to our liberation.

Frontal bust drawing of a female demon / devil with pointy ears. Her head, adorned with two sets of horns, is slightly tilted downwards while looking at the viewer. Her long forked tongue is sticking out. Her long hair is curled in two big parts, flowing over her shoulders and covering her breasts. Along her neck black liquid is dripping down, covering neck and shoulders. Her eyes are glowing read and behind her a black rectangle gives a stark contrast.

What's happening right now is not just anti-#immigration. It's anti-#Latino. White immigration is still acceptable in the US.

My family is Puerto Rican. Do you think Steven Miller cares that we're "legal"? Do you think people who support #ICE see us as American?

Immigration is the cover. When all the Latino immigrants are gone, it'll be "anchor babies". Then, eventually, it'll be colonies like Puerto Rico.

It has alway been about the browning of America.

This simple composition was made with a small FF mirrorless camera, 21mm lens, and travel tripod during a short hike.

I didn't have any ND filters with me, so ended up having to shoot this in the bright midday light at f/8. That yields too much DoF to allow focus to separate the tree from the background. But fortunately there was just enough haze to reduce the contrast of the distant hills a bit, yielding a high contrast subject with a lower contrast background. So it worked out in the end.

“Europeans live longer because they eat FRESH FOOD!!!!” Bitch, they live on cigarettes. They live longer because they have universal healthcare. I’m convinced America is obsessed with inventing things that are killing us so you don’t have to face the actual problems. The average middle aged Mediterranean is more melanoma than regular skin you lads in the US are dying because your government is trying to kill you by using the laxest possible food safety regulations and then making treatment impossible. Trust me, day drinker Jacques would not survive in the US

Starting on June 6th ICE agents swarmed LA's hispanic owned businesses.

There seemed to be immediate community response to protest ICE at these initial raids two days ago.

Initial reports on the 6th suggested that a warehouse owner had successfully locked doors between ICE and employees preventing and slowing their arrest.
