There's too much censorship here. It's difficult-to-impossible to have a contentious political debate without someone hitting the eject (report/ cry home to Mommy) button.

I'm rewatching Barry in anticipation of Max being absorbed into the Ellison conglomerate (and my rapid cancelation). I won't willingly pay these fascist shitheads a penny.

MEANWHILE IN "THE USA HAS ALWAYS BEEN RACIST" NEWS...

In a 1903 Supreme Court opinion— the so-called “Lone Wolf” case— the American justices held that the USA enjoyed a “right” to disregard any treaty obligation to Indians it found inconvenient, but that the remaining treaty provisions continued to be binding upon the Indians. This was, the high court said, because the USA was the stronger of the nations involved, and thus wielded “plenary” power—this simply means full power—over the affairs of the weaker indigenous nations. Therefore, the court felt itself free to unilaterally “interpret” each treaty as being a bill of sale rather than as a rental agreement.

Unbelievable stuff.

(Story via Ward Churchill's essay "I Am An Indigenist")

The plums are blooming! It's usually about a 1/6 chance these blooms will survive later frosts to make good fruit. I'm from middle GA, where fresh peaches and plums are pretty common. They're trickier up here in the mountains.
