@TonyStark What's not killing kids: using someone's preferred pronouns, dealing with that idea, letting people dress how they want as long as it's not a message of violence or hate, reading books about Black history or pro-labor movements, hearing that a teacher has a same-sex partner, seeing a musical.

Best explanation I've seen of why the Paradox of Tolerance is no paradox at all.

Absolutely insane when you consider that Trump presided over a loss of 3 million jobs, while Biden has presided over the addition of more than 12 million. And yes, Covid impacted those numbers, but Trump did a horrendous job managing the pandemic. He's to blame for that.

'Now it’s God’s fault': Texas Republican slammed for claiming 'the almighty' controls shootings https://www.rawstory.com/now-its-gods-fault-texas-republican-slammed-for-claiming-the-almighty-controls-shootings-2659975683/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

You will remember just last Wednesday in Atlanta when the mass shooting occurred, within an hour we got a photo of a Black man, his name (Deion Patterson), his age (24) and numerous surveillance video stills of him.

Are you telling me that in a big ass mall in freakin’ Texas (where they do everything bigger including guns and mass shootings) there aren’t surveillance cameras and footage of this shooter in #allen, Texas? Come on, now. The shooter is dead. Law enf. know who he is. #BlackMastodon

As the only person still regularly masking at work, I feel pretty triumphant when I got a message from a colleague who sat next to me at the seminar that he just tested positive for COVID. 😷

Wear a mask. It’s good for blocking viruses and hiding yawns.

no no, let's hear out the royalist on this excellent idea

Freedom means being able to shop at malls safely and send your children off to school knowing that they will return home at the end of the day.

Every one of these idiots has to be voted out. OUT. NOW.

We went to out to the Camas National Wildlife Refuge (near Hamer, Idaho) this evening and saw five of these porcupines waddling around eating off the ground. I watched and photographed this one for awhile. Apparently, it had enough.

@TonyStark
Why is it always red state governors who proclaim to be pro life who push to expand the death penalty? I guess life only counts in utero, and barely at that.
