JUST IN: In a new lawsuit, Minnesota officials say DHS mishandled evidence from today's crime scene and made "astonishing" law enforcement decisions. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

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.

Holy shit.

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

nursesonja • 7h & Threads Let us not forget, it was the same administration that reduced us to wearing trash bags as protective gear while we watched the hospital go up in flames around us during the pandemic that just murdered one of our own on the streets in broad daylight. As a nurse & as a person, I will never forgive. I will never forget. I will never back down. This was never about border control. This is about total control. O240 Q5 G34 → 21

The nurses are pissed

Gutting the Department of Education will impact everything from internet access to school buses.

Let’s not make it harder to learn.

Musk plans to fire 7,000 Social Security Administration employees while calling Social Security “the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time.” However, Americans have paid into the system their entire working lives!

Holy shit! The White House really is an arm of the Kremlin, and Trump is Putin’s asset.

🚨 The Kremlin praised the U.S. for changing its foreign policy to align with Moscow.

Democrats hold the line. Do NOT agree to fund DOGE.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Drake hits the Triple Crown: getting dunked on at the Grammys, Super Bowl, and Oscars all in the same year.

Red states-pay attention, because you’ll get hit hardest!

They’re gutting NOAA to privatize weather forecasting. Knowledge is power—forecasting is knowledge.

Fossil fuel execs rake in billions while the planet chokes—folks keep guzzling gas & won’t notice the climate crisis while the world burns.

We want to send a message to the world: what has happened today is an absolute disgrace. It is completely un-American.

The cowardice of the GOP has been astounding 👇

Could not agree more. The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country. 🤮

As I sip on my coffee before work, I’m trying to understand the shocking fact that we have a Russian agent pretending to be our President. Another pretending to be Vice President. Even more shocking to me is the entire GQP and 6 SCOTUS’ members knowingly still support this. WE MUST INVOKE THE 25th.

So, actually, it always was Russia.

Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there.

The show must go on.

I’ll admit that, at a time, Bernie frequently rubbed me the wrong way. Those days are gone. @sanders.senate.gov speaks from his heart.
Senator, I raise this #CupOfJoe to you, for never being afraid to speak the truth.

Just read this graf. Share it with people you know who don’t pay attention to politics or news.

For prompt 40. Stream of consciousness narrative, I read On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong. This also works for a couple of the Lunar New Year Mini Challenge prompts.

For prompt 24. Title is a spoiler, I read This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. Would also work for short chapters, standalone, last sentence 6 words or less, and more.

Confusing but worth a read. Very creative.

I didn’t even realize that. Thanks for introducing me to it!
