Meme time! GIMLI (with a big TERF label over his face): Never thought I'd be fighting alongside the far right. LEGOLAS (with a big FAR RIGHT label over his face): Yes, you did.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: scene from the movie Aliens; Ripley is in a mech suit and delivers her iconic line: “get away from her, you bitch!” Panel 2: the xenomorph queen lunges at Ripley in the robotic suit and they engage in a fight. Panel 3: later, the xenomorph queen is standing in the shower, mid wash. She says, “‘it takes one to know one, honey.’ That’s what I should have said.”

“'I’ve never experienced anything like this in my entire life,' the congresswoman said, fighting back tears.

"She described the way people were laying down inside as “like sardines.”

“'It is frightening in there,' she said. 'It is disgusting'..."

The Department of State tweets a video of Secretary Marco Rubio. In the video, Rubio says: "Imagine if instead of spending billions of dollars supporting terrorists or weapons, Iran had spent that money helping the people of Iran. They would have a much different country."

FactPost News tweets a video of Donald Trump speaking at a podium. In the video he says: "We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things."

hmm

Trump posts on Truth Social: "Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like!!! Open the Fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in Hell — JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP." Underneath, there's an ad for some whiskey. The ad says "Grab This 1776 Whiskey Keepsake." Included is an AI-generated image with spelling mistakes.

In the '90s, punks and leftists made absurd images like this to parody American conservatism. I'm not sure you can do that today because there's not even the veneer of Christian virtue to point out the hypocrisy.

Absolutely no surprise that Liz got outperformed by a head of lettuce.

Just saw that. What a raging desperate attention-seeking asshat.
I sincerely hope your neighbor is okay.

BREAKING: After ProPublica published letters written by children at the Dilley concentration camp, ICE officers raided the dormitories and confiscated the children's letters. I'm suing ICE to get them back. I'll explain it all in 45 minutes on @meidastouch.com here: www.youtube.com/live/H-D8SzR...

These soldiers have lost their lives because of the Epstein files.

I promise you that the government that murdered Alex Pretti and Renee Good does not give a flying fuck about the protests in Iran.

Even before Eisenhower's mass deportation operation Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) dehumanized the 28 victims of the Los Gatos Canyon crash by burying them in a mass grave marked only "Mexican Nationals".

How pathetic and annoying do you have to be to get rejected by a gang of pedophiles who desperately want your money but don’t want you on their special island?

How Governments Spy On Protestors—And How To Avoid It | Incognito Mode | WIRED YouTube video by WIRED

How governments spy on protestors and how to protest yourself and your information.

Most of this is not new information if you are a seasoned protestor but there are always new people and new technologies, so stay informed and safe.

Fact check: true

They just shot them instead. 🙄

Oil and bead painting of a stained and damaged US flag wrapped with barbed wire. The flag is bleeding in places from the wire and some bullet holes. Where the stars should be are a series of small skull beads.

I kept putting this off because I kept hoping things would get better.

Between Ice executing at least 2 people that I know of, about the only thing I could do to make more of a statement is setting fire to the damn canvas.

I am finding the robot doubling over way too entertaining.

Let’s talk about something not many people are chatting about and what’s actually happening right now.

You might wonder why Imran Ahmed and the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) suddenly became targets of the U.S. government. The honest answer is that their research hit where it hurt.

So I am going to say something about romance as a genre.

A lot of people think that romance is ignorable because <insert thing they think about romance> and romance authors don't count because <insert thing they think about romance>.

This thread is not about whether you have to like romance.

Importantly, this wouldn't have passed without Dem support. There was enough of a split within Republican ranks that if Dems had voted against the bill it would've been doa. Giving Trump a blank check to warmonger *and* passing an anti-trans measure was a choice.

Trump is really just a parrot away from cosplaying as a murdering pirate right now and why the fuck isn’t every government calling him out for it?
(Hint: massaging his little orange ego gets them more)

I want everyone to know that if we don't stop the rich from destroying this planet, a shimmering life filled treasure, your children will have nothing left.

Nothing is more important. And yes, they will consume it all until it is gone. I don't care how nice they seem.

One thing Gwen understands more than most about the Texas and Oklahoma crack down on trans people existing in the university is that this is part of a broader movement by TPUSA and astroturf right wing groups to push society to make having a job while being openly trans impossible again.

MTG screaming at the rest of MAGA is the most “you hate the wrong people and I’m a victim” thing I’ve seen in a while, coming from a woman who literally wound up her followers and aimed them at people.
I’m finding it hard to have any sympathy for her.

It's unfair to judge others for taking medication if you've never needed it to survive -needing meds is not always a choice -needing meds is not shameful @the_chronic_notebook

This is the facility that I and many others have been protesting. We’ve been hit, thrown, gassed, and shot with pepper bullets but none of that holds a candle to what is being done to people *in* the actual facility.

Read this thread. Don’t look away. Keep your eyes and the pressure on Broadview.

Let’s talk about ICE. This post is long, but it’s worth reading to understand how to protect your right to privacy.

It might sound extreme, but everyday Americans may soon want to consider face coverings for reasons far beyond health or fashion.

He should be on trial. This man is still going to live in luxury on an estate while his victims suffer.

Lighthouse is done. I think I forgot to post it, because the brain fog is being a dick lately.
