Pete: we are all gagging and in shock from the Epstein files. We don’t care about energy right now. We want justice for all victims!!!!!
Alt text: Screenshot of a Facebook post by Joseph Fasano. The post reads, “I can’t stop thinking of all the poets slain by tyranny. Today I hear the voice of Federico García Lorca, slain by fascists in 1936.” Below the text is an image of a poem titled “Lorca,” credited to Joseph Fasano, with the subtitle “after Neruda.” The poem reflects on being silenced by one’s country, facing execution, hearing birds and the heart remain strong, and urging others to go on. It ends with the repeated line, “They can kill the singers but they cannot kill the song.”

I had a student a decade ago (he actually passed away last month 💔) who did a project in high school to wipe old laptops and install a basic system then build computer labs in orphanages in Tijuana. This post made me think of him. Happy NY to all who have the privilege of aging 🫶
I saw Bradbury speak when I was much younger…he talked about the reason it’s so short is because it cost him a dime for a short period on the typewriters at UCLA and it’s what he could afford! 🙃
I used to have faith that Anonymous would actually blow the lid off the oligarchs for all to behold. Sigh.
In retrospect Sandy Hook marked the end of the US gun control debate. Once America decided killing children was bearable, it was over.
13 years ago today.
"Every lockdown drill is a confession of failure. Every barricaded classroom is an indictment. Every child taught to hide is proof that the adults in charge have surrendered."
WTH?! Cheney, Rumsfeld and Bush are war criminals. Stop waxing as he was some great guy. We are where we are today largely because of guys like Cheney.
Why is no one talking about his bone spurs and draft dodging? Who tf is Shitler to talk about the Vietnam War?
The irony is these guys are total cowards and they think they’re doing something so “alpha” lol
And tbh this is the first time I’ve seen him since then lmaooo
I smoked a doob with the lead singer back in Humboldt in ‘97 👌
As a gay person, I would like to trade this guy for one of yours. We will take Bernie and straights can have this guy. Bernie could be a leather bear LOL
WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH
My 83 year old Dad did two tours in Vietnam. He’s not a guy who has ever protested. He’s a Republican. And he lives in a small, rural, MAGA town. He made this sign and stood up for his oath today. I’m always proud of my dad, but especially today ❤️ #seabeescando #veteransagainsttrump
My 83 year old dad, two tours in Vietnam. Never a guy who identified with protesting and is a registered Republican. And he lives in a very rural, red town. I’m always proud of my dad, but especially today. #seabeescando #veteransagainsttrump #mydadisaking
I was thinking the same thing. Seems like a really stupid idea to get a ton of your equipment in one place for multiple reasons. We’re so f—-ed 🫣
Nah. These guys are treated like heroes in the rural areas. One of them came and was a guest speaker in my town and he was treated like an important guy instead of the shitbag he actually is
WHERE TF IS CONGRESS
The seagulls in the background are like “why is everyone looking at us?” 🦅👀
I have something French to say:
Fuck Linda McMahon and Donald Trump 🖕
Sincerely, a teacher ❤️
ChatGPT just told me that if I live another 25 years (putting me at 73 years old), I have 9000 sunrises left. That is not a lot and now I’m scared 😂😭
