Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has accepted an invitation to give a joint address to Congress.

But Netanyahu should not be given this platform. Members of Congress must send a clear message that they do not support the continued bloodshed and slaughter of innocent Palestinians or the disregard for returning hostages to their loved ones. https://act.indivisible.org/sign/no-netanyahu-tell-your-members-congress-not-attend-speech?source=mastodon&medium=directpost

With headlines about giant venomous flying spiders, I expected monsters the size of bulldogs with huge sharp fangs dripping green venom, eight red-rimmed eyes, and wings. Fuckin' wings!

Turns out they're slightly bigger than normal, venom's harmless, they don't have wings and don't "fly."

Sad.

It’s understandable that people invested in ActivityPub would feel it’s the most logical standard for a global open social web protocol. And perhaps it should be. But there are competing arguments for and against it. Other federations happened after long and painful competitions between competing tech and players. In the meantime, there were gateways and bridges between them, just as there is one now emerging with BlueSky. It’s a very healthy competition, I think. And both can evolve to …

This may be a duplicate). In 2016 our willow lost a sister tree. The tree is almost 100 ft tall. Another 30 ft of this tree goes beyond the house. It just grazed the corner of the house and did no damage. This happened on a still day. Here’s the thing: I stood watching it happen not believing it was happening at the time. It sounded like a shotgun.

Fani, by showing up instead of making them jump through hoops and present evidence (which they don’t have), is showing them A: She’s not afraid of them and can curbstomp them from the stand. B: Takes away their months of planned smears against her/office with unproven allegations.

The downside for the defense: I suspect they were not prepared for her to call their bluff. They will all be facing possible sanctions for bringing a case that has no basis in evidence or fact.

He’s going to choose Don Jr. He wants to be sure of 2 things (mebbe 3): Dynasty, a pardon, the end of all investigations.

These GOP ass kissers all want to be VP because they know he’s going down, they want the blessing of his cult, and they need to be in position to take the wheel when he’s arrested or dies. They are banking on him dying. All this over the top ‘loyalty’, is a show.

TFG is well aware of why they are kissing his ass. He doesn’t trust any of them. He will choose Don Jr.

Discussion w/ friend of friend:
FoF: Biden hasn’t earned your vote, you should back 3P and show him he’s not entitled.
Me: What has 3P done to earn my vote?
FoF: Nothing yet because they haven’t had a chance.
Me: If I vote for 3P & they lose, who wins?
FoF: They can’t show you if they don’t win
Me: What will they show me?
FoF: (Looks at mutual friend) “Why does she ask so many questions?”
Me: I’m right here.

She headed her department for 6 yrs. The business was expanding. The company went to hire an assistant for her (she had a secretary). She happened to be coming into work, headed to her department, when a man asked her where the office was that he had to interview. She told him. He snapped his fingers, “Oh, btw, bring me a coffee, 2 sugars.” She smiled, and brought coffee to him as he waited to be interviewed. Then she sat down behind the desk. Without a word, he got up and left.

Behind every war there will be profit.
Peace would bankrupt them all, so they insure we are constantly at war.
All you can think about during war is surviving.
No time to think of Peace.
You think of every move you could make, must make did make to survive.
Thinking of Peace would be a deadly distraction.
We’re being herded by cattle.
We must demand that those who make the wars are removed from power,
So we can breathe.

Putting Costello on (without Abbott), made the defense look like everything the prosecution said was not only true, but understated the depth of depravity both in personality and acts committed by their client.

Every republican running for office will be forced to answer the questions: “Did you vote for the J6 guy?”
…the election denier?
…the never passed a bill in 16 years guy?
…the wrestling coach that allowed his wrestlers to be sexually assaulted, repeatedly, on his watch and did nothing? That guy?
…you chose a leader that has lied about everything as the BEST among you to lead you in the 3rd highest office in the country?
…Now that I have seen your judgment, why should I vote for you?

Has anyone else noticed? TFG wins his primary by 20 points, they call him a winner. Biden wins by 70 pts. they only want to interview people who didn’t vote for him. MSNBC is shaping a narrative that misrepresents reality. They are not our friends.
