Rare video of the moment a Ukrainian farmer spots abandoned Russian armor.
#Ukraine

I hope y'all are nice and pissed off over where our country is heading... I wont have it! I am a woman and I will not be knocked down and told to stay down and look pretty, WE AS WOMEN ARE THE FUTURE and THE PAST, TAKE YOUR POWER AND ASSERT IT!

#Ukraine keeping up it’s record of god tier trolling. Their 97th Infantry Battalion just issued a “thank you letter” to the Russian armed forces because one of their TOS-1A Sunblaze thermobaric launchers accidentally targeted another Russian unit, annihilating both the troops and armor at that position.

Happy Mother's Day.

If you're a mom, I hope you have an awesome day.
If you have a mom, I hope you make hers an awesome day.
If you lost a mom, I hope you can focus on the awesome memories today.

'Are we still calling it Mother's Day or is it now just Domestic Infant Supplier Day?'

...and that would-be parents in search of such infants were seeking to adopt from overseas.

The deduction Alito appears to be drawing is that having an unwanted baby is no burden on a woman, because there's a huge market for neonates out there, and if she puts the child up for adoption it will get snatched right up.

Alito does not here consider the trauma of pregnancy and parturition itself; nor the various circumstances which might make adoption of any given child difficult....

For most our history US has mainly spread democracy and civil rights.

We have now become a nation spreading an end of civil rights and authoritarianism. Overturning #rvw is a significant part of that.

@April_Z There are protests in most cities today, at courthouses and at the homes of the justices. The genie is out of the bottle. We have to use the energy productively.

And some thought calling them the American Taliban was over the top.

We knew this was coming, ‘nauts.

The deplorables had to be appeased, and reproductive rights are just the first target.

Warning to new folks. Do not be surprised if at some point there is a attack. I'm sure there are some lurking and waiting, possibly many.

I would hope that you block and report and do not engage. We have a commitment to not feeding the trolls here.

PSA - Guys.... I'm afraid we're gonna have some downtime within the next hour.

We'll go off for about 3 minutes, then come back up, then off again for maybe 30-45 minutes.

Don't wig out.
