ICE has violated almost 100 court orders.

Let me say that another way. 100 times ICE was caught brazenly ignoring the law. 100 times a court told them to immediately stop. And 100 times they ignored the order.

That's an out-of-control agency that shouldn't get another dime.

I knew you’d come through 💛

FACTS they didn’t want our money so we sent them towels instead 😂

I don’t disagree that this is the goal, but I’m going to keep hoping the timing doesn’t work for them to have things locked down by the midterms. Preemptively panicking about November in this chaos just leaves me frozen, which is not useful for anybody :/

It’s never too late to have a happy childhood and through a séance lol

No, for certain — we had séances and “light as a feather” and ghost stories, and this was in rural upstate NY in… 1980? Before the height of the satanic panic, anyway.

I bet this is some good folklorist’s PhD project. @loreleif.bsky.social, this sounds like your kind of jam — any idea?

That does seem to be his aim, but I don’t think he’s gonna get the numbers he needs in time for a midterm coup. (At least that’s how I’m managing to sleep at night)

Do I have to go back and get the ones I missed, or can I go straight for the scotch?

He’s never really had the military, and certainly not since Hegseth & Iran.

It’s why Trump & Co built up ICE, and it’s why they fire top women/POC brass. Trying to get leaders they control, and rank-and-file who accept criminal orders. They are trying to get rid of the rest w/war or the flu

So relatable

Excellent almost-camouflaging there 😂 if you can’t see the cat, you’re going to have to share the bed with her?

If you are unsure you can EITHER get titers checked to find out if you're immune and then get a vaccine if you're not OR you can skip the titer part and just get the vaccine. it won't hurt you to get it even if you're immune. insurance can be picky about what it'll pay for.

Never was a show so well known to fandom, and so completely unheard of in the outside world.

Tiny, tiny niche audience. Comprising some ~80% of slash fandom at the time, and almost nobody else 😂

fandom has always been built on complete sincerity. online culture has become allergic to the very notion of earnestness, and it's making fandom spaces miserable. the sooner you free yourself from the shackles of shame around sincere fannishness, the more joy you'll find

I also like Talarico, so it sucks TX can’t send both of them. I think that, failing that, Crockett ought to be running the DNC — and/or updating their entire media strategy

For those who don't know what radiation therapy is & how crucial it is for a cancer patient to be consistent: it has the same function as chemotherapy. It reduces the growth rate of the cancer cells & quite literally is what's keeping Rebeka alive rn.

CHIP IN $1 to keep Rebeka alive please‼️

benches, buses, and bathrooms. they should be everywhere

Thank you, Senator

And just to be abundantly clear:

NASA AND SCIENCE IN GENERAL HAVE MASSIVE RETURN ON INVESTMENT.

Cutting this budget is a net financial LOSS in the medium- to long-term. It undermines our future -- intellectually, technologically, and economically.

People with preexisting conditions also don’t deserve to die

Thank you, Senator — run that vaccine-denying charlatan out of town on a rail, he has done more than enough harm

He's a liar and a killer. I don't know what else to tell people, he's a rich eugenicist, he wants as many poor people as possible to die in the name of 'health.' He's a genuinely and uniquely malign figure in American life and his appointment was an act of violence

(Or Bronx-based? Her district is mostly in Queens but I believe she is actually from the Bronx. As I am certain someone will point out. 🙃)

In this instance i believe AOC is implying that she was using her Queens-based idiom and communication style rather than the expected mode of professional communication in DC :)

Congresswoman, I think you were more than perfectly polite with that reprehensible [redacted]

Dammmmmn glad I’m not a Hugo voter, because you couldn’t make me decide between October Daye and Chronicles of Osreth if I were held at gunpoint. Two of my absolute favorites.

Mazel tov to all the nominees, as I assume the other series(es?) probably also slap.

Nothing has killed more soldiers in the history of humanity than disease. While worst is a more complicated question Hegseth is absolutely the dumbest secretary of defense the United States has ever had. bsky.app/profile/ones...

Yet again I remind everyone (as Elizabeth does in her very next tweet) that "foreigners are corrupting our pure blood with weakness & disease" is Fascism 101. Not some variant, not some metaphorically similar thing, not some echo -- the thing itself.

This five second Instagram reel that will loop 37 times while I attempt to read the eight-paragraph caption could have been a Web 1.0 blog post with a nice photo at the top

Yeah, you’re gonna need to do a sleep study before they get anywhere — is that what the alerts are from? I am a lifetime insomniac and while some of the suggestions are mildly helpful, it’s always astonishing to me that people think I haven’t thought of them before. Solidarity and good luck!
