Goose the Moose

@fubarspeaks.bsky.social

I'm a lifelong union member, truck driver, labor leftist with a giant sheepadoodle rescue. Canadian who grows his own weed. Plays D&D. Votes NDP. Supports LGBTQ. All the letters!

So, I have Goose at my feet because he cant stop barking at the backyard squirrels and their bullshit, even in the bedroom, Abby on her wicker throne basket beside me, and Thyme sitting on the back of my chair licking my hair. Happy Sunday Morning, Bluesky.

We picked up some very nice side tables from someones defunct yard sale and my wife has asked me 4 times now if her friend is in the driveway to pick them up and now you know why old men are often seen staring out their windows at the street...

I must now go on record admitting I dont know how to spell chihuahuahuahua - LITTLE PIRANHA BARKY DOG!! I'm sorry, but I'm down to the last of the homegrown and its basically nothing but THC dust at this point...

You know, when Trump finally does shuffle off to whatever 'eternal reward' he merits, he'll still be costing the American taxpayer money as undoubtably the Secret Service will have to post a guard to keep whatever gaudy tomb he is laid in from vandalism...

We adopted another Kentucy rescue, a long haired chihuahua name Minnifred who is close to Goose's age for company. We now have two extremely jealous dogs who either jump up on you or boomp your easy chair for attention, and then whale on each other for several minutes. Mini usually wins...

I saw a very disturbing post on Reddit yesterday which I just have trouble believing. Does anyone else know or have evidence that ICE is torturing male detainees by intentionally rupturing their scrotums? I mean, that's pretty advanced level monstrous evil for any American if it's happening...

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

With this love in for the joys of authoritarianism, let's consider the actual track record of the Nazi party in Germany. In power for 15 years. Started a war after 10 years of prep. Lost. Lost millions of their own citizens. Lost half of Germany to the RUSSIANS. WORST form of government ever!

So, Madero's VP is Ok to run Venezuela as long as she 'does what she's told'. Otherwise she gets kidnapped and charged too. So, if she's also criminal enough to get dragged off to the US, why is she being left in office?

All this merited talk about how the US actions in Venezuela are a violation of international law aside, I think the US has taken a massive risk here. It has gone from flexing naval power blowing up small boats to assuming the invulnerability of said forces in a larger conflict in the drone age.
