Hey MSP folks, where would you go to buy a cloth shower curtain? I'm hoping to avoid the obvious big boxes.
Since I praised my colleagues at NPR News for doing stories that might displease the Administration while under threat from them, I should and will extend the same admiration to the people at ABC News. abcnews.com/US/family-al...

Trump is promising to boost the U.S. economy by making it harder for Americans to trade with the rest of the world. He is also promising to destroy Iran's economy by making it harder for Iranians to trade with the rest of the world.
“Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.” Frank Herbert, Dune
Trump is not just the worst president, but the worst US citizen of my entire lifetime. A world historical failure of humanity and morality. He and his wicked entourage have burdened us with the task of repairing his damage and eradicating his evil legacy for the rest of our lives.
Really starting to think this Trump fella simply does not know how to run a country

Whoever said “let’s have the Muppets conducted by Dudamel” was fucking cooking, give that person a raise
Whoever the US president was in 2020 must have been a real piece of shit, allowing such things to happen and hiding it from the American people. Thank God Trump is exposing his incompetence and treachery.
This is Joan Sebastian Guerrero, the 26-year-old Colombian father and husband murdered by ICE fascists in broad daylight in front of his 3-year-old daughter. He was NOT the target of the ICE warrant. He was documented. He did everything right. ICE murdered him anyway. And yet… 1/2
ICE has fatally shot 11 people since Donald Trump's second term began. These are not isolated incidents. They are the predictable result of a cruel, violent system. Abolish ICE.
