  • I have no source. I have not heard it from any news source or political commentator but I’ve read it three times now and I think it’s worthy of concern. I’m not trying to scare anyone. We citizens still outnumber any would-be invaders in numbers and weapons.

    This is still only January of this year. In less than one month, how many things have you experienced that people said wouldn’t happen? Never thought could happen. I am considering any and all possibilities when it comes to untethered sociopaths with infinite money and the strongest possible responses to even a hint at accountability. I don’t consider Russian troops is a huge, huge stretch, but those who have the most to gain offering up some troops? Yeah, they would. They’re not playing the same game we are. Their end goals are not remotely the same.


  • Wouldn’t that give the government and its MAGA supporters enough ammo to spin it and send even more militarized goons?

    What’s going to happen if they do? Random civilians get killed? The same thing that happens now?

    I get the worry. There isn’t enough ICE to do the job. Even with their ridiculous and lying recruitment offers, they don’t have many people.

    The actual military is a wild card. My guess is they will show up and do exactly one job. Protect federal property and the people inside. I don’t think the military leaders would allow military personnel to follow and protect ICE as they break the law.

    But whether now or later, what they’ll do likely won’t change. They’re going to do what they’re going to do. And civil war breaks out.

    There’s another wild card to be concerned about. Israel, Venezuela, Russia sending troops to do Trump’s bidding. We’ve also heard very little from the mercenaries employee by Blackrock/Xi/whatever the fuck they call themselves now.

    But again, that happens whether the citizens act now or later. The less shit we allow, the less power we give them. Pushing back with every aggressive act keeps citizens more in control.






  • I once worked for 32 hours straight in a print shop to get a project out the door. Print shops (especially then) were fucking insane pressure cookers. The same intensity as an ER only stupid because instead of lives being on the line it was money. A lot of money, but just money. Early 00’s, everything was output on film back then. Had a weird error in an image that was used throughout a catalog. Normally, you could send a working signature through to the press, but the image was in every signature except the cover. I tried every possible trick I knew to get it to work, output film to test it, back to the drawing board. But yeah, 32 hours straight on this one thing. Finished up at around 4am, drove home but just kind of kept driving. Slightly delirious. Parked on top of a ridge off the shoulder and watched the sun come up. Went home and slept for I don’t even know how long.
