I am sensing another round of "Be calm. The wheels of justice take time. Congress can only do so much." Just like I heard in the run up to the US election while Orange Mussolini's criminal cases were snailing through the system.

Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, you won't get fooled again. I'm done being calm.

To all the American white males who believe they are safe from the jack boot of our new administration.

This will not end well for you either.

September 2021: Taliban tells women to stay home from work and school.

September 2024: Taliban mandates that men wear a fist-long beard, bars them from wearing jeans, dictates haircut styles, and prohibits men from looking at women other than their wives or relatives.

USian over here rooting for Canada!

"Ontario Premier Doug Ford, who said he is also banning American companies from provincial contracts, signed a $100-million Canadian (US$68 million) with Musk’s company in November.

“We’ll be ripping up the province’s contract with Starlink. Ontario won’t do business with people hellbent on destroying our economy,” Ford said.

New server, new #Introduction

My local brewpub, Kulshan Brewery, has this poster in their front window. More businesses need to take a stand, post similar messages publicly, and identify themselves as safe spaces in the resistance.
