The New York Mets are truly amazin’ when the year ends in the digits 6 and 2, in any order.

My most liberal idpol radlib take is that I think it's pretty bad that
right wing forces are actively intervening on behalf of the Klan with the full weight of the state legal apparatus

Young pope Leo, undated but he appears to be in his teens or early 20’s

young pope leo looks like a ska scene regular who goes by Upbeat but no one knows his real name

Truly remarkable how many people have told the Pope, in some way or another, to "shut up and dribble." Or corrected him on the Bible, despite their thin education on theology. Or told him to stay out of US affairs, despite him being a US citizen. The hubris is amazing.

It's the 7th month of the US bombing random ships in Latin American waters they claim are drug smugglers (reminder that two survivors who were rescued were repatriated, not charged), and the death toll is 150+, and it barely gets discussed.

A Trump tweet from which I've hidden everything but claims that someone is weak on crime.

Donald Trump is a serial criminal who sicced ICE on Catholic and other faith leaders who were tending to migrants.

NYT, WaPo, WSJ didn't bother to mention that in their stories on Trump's projection attacks on Pope Bob.

I’m not mad. Please don’t put in the paper that I’m mad.

even the most tenacious autocrats have a difficult time denying a landslide result against them

more seriously congrats to the hungarian people for kicking that asshole out

I have a wide stance on this issue

Very strong "this raises questions that I thought would be addressed by my shirt" vibes

They haven’t seen the tweet…

In Korea, when the president declared martial law after midnight and erected barricades in Seoul, congressional reps from all parties ran into the streets, yanked ak47s from the army at the barricades, broke down the locked door to Congress, repealed the martial law order, and arrested the president

In all seriousness, one thing that might be worth doing today:

Tell your Reps and Senators to call Adm. Richard Correll, the Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, which controls the nation's nukes, and remind him of *his* unique responsibility to refuse an illegal order.

Obviously not a substitute for Congress doing its job, but now would be a good time for Clinton, W, Obama, and Biden to say something jointly.

We were the perfect target for authoritarianism. About 1/3 of the population actively wants an authoritarian for some reason, another 1/3 are too busy making lots of money and ignoring things, and the final 1/3 just trying to survive and don't have time to protest enough to make a difference.

yeah man i'll circle back to you on that agenda item from yesterday's all hands in just a sec. our pedophile king just threatened to destroy a whole civilization

Today is Trans Day of Visibility and I’m thinking about the trans people in my life- their courage, joy, and defiance in the face of a hostile government bent on erasure and elimination. Trans people deserve so much better. We all need to demand better for them.

okay but McNamoron was right there

What’s all this about the straight hormones we are trying to capture?

A screenshot from Fox News’ Hannity from right when covid started The left 1/3 of the screen is Sean Hannity talking, the right is a graphic reading “coronavirus deaths in US: 0”

the war is going better than you think

Elder Millennia Hippies are the new Warfighters

So to be clear the security function does not include keeping weapons and explosives off of airplanes. Got it. Crystal clear.

No Kings
No ICE
No War

Who among us hasn’t teleported to waffle hous?
