Evening Shade---Resistance Rising---Friday

WELCOME

TO THE EVENING SHADE

A SANCTUARY OF SANITY AFTER A LONG HARD DAY OF FIGHTING FACISM

YOU WILL FIND in the DIARIES a LOT of POLITICS

(Or NOT As the CASE MAY BE)

AND EVEN MORE CRITTERS

   

THE PERSON who MAKES the FIRST COMMENT WILL GET TWO CRITTERS

EVERY PERSON WHO COMMENTS WILL GET A CRITTER

RULES IN THE DIARY

WHEN YOU FIND SOMETHING in the DIARY that you LIKE

YOU CAN REPOST IT AS COMMENT in the DIARY

Thank you Judge Jackson. Not only saying it, but for having the balls to say it in print, on the record, for all eternity. I'm talking the second paragraph. To hell with the first.

This is supremely fucked up. I mean, I read about this earlier, but to see it in writing is devastating.

Gov. Pritzker takes a different route. Selective sipping alert!

This is hilarious. I especially like the annexation of Green Bay and the mystery Mississippi River announcement.

This is an important point that is not getting enough attention.

Just last week someone told me Trump would never shut down USAID because it buys so much US grain and I said, "I wonder if he knows that"

I have to say that the fact that the people destroying the country are such fucking morons kind of stings.

It is the position of the administration that a post saying “Free Palestine” or talking about diversity should ruin your life, but a post calling to hate people from India should not.  That’s their moral sensibility.  Nazi scum.

About that GQP small government and "let the market decide" BS. What the Forking hell?

A non-government business that contracts with the federal government received notice today that in order to do business with the government they must certify that they don’t participate in DEI.
