It’s your turn.
The Forest Service just told Congress to go pound sand. Forest Service Chief Tom Schultz appeared before the House Appropriations Committee this week and made it clear the agency is moving forward with

If you recognize yourself in this image, I would like to hear from you. 🧵
I am not in this photo but I was assaulted repeatedly from age three until I ran away from home in my teens. I'm just chiming in to verify that this sh*t is real. Yes, children are imaginative, but they don't naturally know enough about the se*ual world to invent such stories. Listen, believe them.
I agree with the sentiment but I wish they had trimmed the top off the box. There are people who think it's acceptable to take their anger out on postal workers. Just yesterday a woman told me that I should have killed myself before becoming a federal employee. All I did was deliver her mail.

War is a great excuse to move massive amounts of money around. Greed is usually the real reason, no matter what they say. Innocent humans are dying to fuel the grift of a bunch of greedy bastards. Companies can't sell more weapons if no one uses them. Follow the money.
