if you suddenly don’t support the shooter bc he’s right wing I’m shaking you like a rag doll I’m throwing you into mount doom please look me in the eyes and remember that your biggest battle is not left vs right it is up versus down. they want you divided. keep your eyes on the prize. you want to eat the rich? so do the millions living in rural america. so do your farmers, your electricians, your welders, your fishermen. the men and women’s bodies who are exploited for labor. the class disparity the fear mongering the human rights violations stems from ABOVE!! they want you to despise each other to alienate each other to think we are not both human beings suffering for their profit. do not cover your eyes with their wool
We saw some good birds (and lizards tuatara) on our trip to Wellington last week! The Zealandia sanctuary is awesome.
The one I was most excited to see was the shining bronze cuckoo (green on the back, white and brown striped on the front in the photos above). As a child I learned about cuckoos laying their eggs in other birds' nests and leaving another species to raise them - but this is the first time I actually saw it in action! That baby cuckoo was sitting there going beep beep beep while a poor tiny grey warbler dashed around trying to find enough food for her giant son.

Duke: I have a stalker
Tim: It's okay.
Duke: How is that okay?
Tim: Don't worry, I've been stalking them for months.
Duke:....
Duke: You've been stalking my stalker?
Tim: Yup, and to be honest, they're nothing special. You can do better.
Duke:...
Duke: Jason, he's doing it again!
Jason: Oh for the love of--- he just got out of rehab!
So it seems like there are two possibilities:
One possibility is that the person who did the shooting changed his jacket right before the shooting- but into a different jacket that was remarkably similar (a puzzling choice! He brought two almost identical jackets with him? He changed his jacket to avoid detection into a jacket that looks very similar but has subtle differences? Puzzling!), shaved his unibrow (the better to shoot with, I guess?), then executed a plan so well thought out that the police had pretty much no leads, but was then caught (with both the murder weapon and a manifesto conveniently on his person! And the unibrow now regrown with long hairs) at a small town McDonalds five days later thanks to a random person recognizing him (and is a random McDonald's employee thinking you appear similar to a partial photo of a criminal enough to get you detained?)
OR
A police force with a budget bigger than many country's entire military, in a country notorious for having corrupt policemen who routinely lie and believe themselves to be above the law, realizing that it would be supremely embarrassing to have no leads, and likely facing immense political pressure to make sure the public doesn't think people can get away with this kind of crime, feeling motivated to peruse the many many records available to their giant counter-terrorism unit and using it to find someone who was in the vicinity, with an established online record of extremism, who has a jacket that is reasonably similar, and straight up planting some evidence on him so they can wrap this up with a neat bow and all of the ceo's who run the politicians who run our country can breathe easier?
As a random person on the Internet I will never find out the truth but some of this is not really passing the sniff test, and if there is one thing you can count on in this country it's that cops lie and cover their own asses. If he mysteriously dies in prison from "suicide" then we will know it's definitely not him
Edited to add: for those confused I do think it's possible Luigi is the guy from the hostel. It's just that based on the jacket and the eyebrows I'm not convinced he is the shooter. There was never anything solid linking the hostel to the shooting other than a similar (but actually different jacket)
they're out here trolling the NYPD w/ fake tips and the cops are so desperate that they're listening lmfao
"They just replaced Brian Thompson, the shooter didn't change anything..."
Blue Cross IMMEDIATELY reversed their anesthesia plan. So like yeah? He actually did.
