Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

I was waiting for my flight home from GenCon one year and noticed Sheamus (from WWE) standing next to me in a hoodie. He seemed to be having a day, so I said something like "Hey, just wanted to say I really like your work". Found out later he was trying to get to a pay-per-view.

Saying ice needs to get out of Minnesota is only half the battle, because they're only gonna go terrorize some other community. You don't move a weed to another part of the garden, you pull it out by the roots to stop it from spreading.

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

Statement from the family of Alex Pretti, Michael and Susan Pretti: 

β€œWe are heartbroken but also very angry. 
 
Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman. 
 
The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed. 
 
Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you”

I'm unreasonably* angry at how far my suburban & rural Minnesotan bitches can SHOVE their heads in the sand in order to pretend all is well. And no, they're not all as right-leaning as you might have assumed.

I haven't the spoons, so... what's the latest in Cozy RPG content? Gimme.

they’re abducting our neighbors and putting them in concentration camps and they’ll shoot you in the fucking face if you don’t cheer them on while they’re doing it.

Introduce yourself with five concerts you've seen:

Billy Joel
Prince
Ani Difranco
A Perfect Circle
Of Monsters and Men

Thought about including festivals like Lollapalooza but that just muddies the waters...

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn’t Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice In Chains.

I like how trebuchets hit Europe in the 11th-12th century, except for this "historical recreation".

I mean, trebuchets technically existed in the 6th century so I guess there's that.

If your happiness is under attack, the last thing you should do is surrender it to fear and anger. Joy is a protest.

Seriously, please don't post "Oh god we're totally fucked, there is no hope" despair stuff. If that's true, knowing about it before hand won't help. If that's not true, don't post what isn't true.

If you feel despair (and I get it!), talk to people you trust about it. Bluesky is not therapy.
