an underrated, unforgivable belief that remains prevalent among pols and normies is that a rising tide lifts all boats when it’s been clear forever that a rising tide simply drowns the people on low lying land
All of us are dissociated and dissociating to make it through today. I hope you give yourself and others grace.
The trailer for EVERYONE IS LYING TO YOU FOR MONEY. In select theaters starting April 17th 🍿🤑🤣
If other people's children are fair targets in war, then so are yours.
Killing a bunch of elementary school girls to distract from having raped a bunch of middle- and high-school girls is pretty fucking grim.
im starting to think the woke mind virus wasnt actually the biggest threat to civilization

"A man free of patriarchy is a man who has found not only every woman's humanity, but one who has at last discovered his own. The actual path to liberation for lonely men is feminism—because pursuing an identity based on dominating others is self-isolating."

The drunk uncle theory.
You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there
This is starting to get like universal basic income where every single objective study shows the same result but the people who don't like that result go "uh, well there's just really no way to know"
BREAKING: The federal government has filed a motion seeking to end asylum claims for the family of Liam Conejo Ramos, according to the lawyer representing the family.
This woman has balls of absolute steel. Huge fan.
I’m sorry Matt but Alec is actually incredibly knowledgeable about this stuff. It is a good faith critique. He’s one of, if not the most prominent and well-researched, experts on prison abolition and copaganda. No shade to you!
What do you MEAN the president audibly SHIT himself live on camera and they immediately cancelled the press conference and rushed everyone out of the room like it's a fire drill, and it happened two days ago, and I'm just hearing about it NOW?
Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.
I realize this is going to be appealed and the 5th Circuit will take this judge to task for his “unprofessional language” but I, for one, am so grateful to read a written opinion from the district court that speaks so eloquently to the gravity of this moment.
so weird! such unknowable motives!
Let’s try this one in foreign correspondent voice:
State Security Forces Arrest Journalist Who Covered Protests Against Regime Official
It's not what I would have predicted, but I guess it's to the barricades with Will Stancil and Don Lemon
“We are a Minneapolis 2nd grade Brownie Troop of 12 including trans and neurodiverse youth and 75% BIPOC kids. We want to go to summer camp and try horseback riding! During the current ICE occupation we need your support more than ever...”
And that’s how I ordered 4 boxes of thin mints.
Take his personal army away from him while you can, you stupid, stupid assholes. You’re like an armadillo playing dead in the middle of the road so the semi won’t hurt you
you can’t fucking dox a public official!
Chuck Schumer just announced demands on DHS to avoid shutdown:
1. End roving patrols, tighten rules on warrants
2. Enforce accountability & unified code of conduct for agents
3. No more masks & require bodycams
There are *already* standards on much of this.
The issue is DHS isn't following them!
MAGA fuckface in cozy red sweater, holding dog also wearing sweater, against a background of vivid red foliage.
Endlessly useful Zack Fox tweet from 2018: this how photos be lookin in headlines when a white man kills his entire family. (it's a guy on a jetski with wife and daughter.)
Incredibly, this is an actual photo New York Post used for the guy who attacked Ilhan Omar.
Having tried it, I dont care for a low trust society, and would prefer a high trust one. Please look into this soonest
Well this is fucking gross. And this is from a Dem representing Vancouver WA?!
This is fucking pathetic, Senator. You shut down the government because the alternative is collaborating and helping them continue to murder us. Republicans aren’t going to do *shit* about ICE and you know it. Grow a pair.
In my ongoing attempts to give you a break from *gestures widely* THE HORRORS:
Let's talk about the utterly bizarre science of cats' purring.
Here's a weird starting point:
There are NO cats (Felidae) that can BOTH roar AND purr.
Cats that roar = genus Panthera
Cats that purr = genus Felis
Hilarious how they don’t even mention the 2A, but insinuate that it only applies to federal agents
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.
