Behold Mother Nature’s fury
It’s crazy how many times in the next couple years we’re all going to have to say “next time a child rapist runs for president on a platform of destroying the country, don’t vote for him” to the growing group of halfwits complaining about the results of their vote for Trump.
Went a little heavy on the botox but I love this shade of lipstick
Peak irony seeing people post complaints about ring’s surveillance system from smartphones with multiple cameras, microphones, and filled with apps that are constantly spying on them. Y’all really didn’t think all this invasive tech was to protect YOU, did you‽
Wake up and understand that it’s not the wages of the average US worker making US products expensive, it’s the pay packages enjoyed by the c-suite. Take out the trash at the top and almost every company can afford to increase average worker wages AND lower prices.
I’m not going to see the Melania movie, but I do think it’s a great idea to make a film about every sex worker the Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein trafficked into the US. One down, too many to count to go.
It’s so frustrating that the only aspect of christianity the loudest American christians have adopted is believing things without a shred of evidence and that that is also how they form their political positions.
I had no idea Miller made High Life Light and I’m baffled as to why they didn’t call it Low Life instead. Milquetoast advertising executives are useless and only succeed in blowing every chance at spreading any kind of joy they may have.
The silver lining of owing a little bit on my taxes is knowing I didn’t give the Nazis an interest-free loan last year. It ain’t much, but it’s something.
If one billionaire gave $1 million to every single American today, that billionaire would still have over $500 million dollars and would likely be a billionaire again in a less than a year.
Two of my interests combined at long last.
My breakfast view on the Amtrak through northern Mississippi.
Members of Congress should all have to live in dormitory-style housing, share bathrooms and eat all their meals in a cafeteria together. If we take away all the decadence they undeservedly enjoy we could more easily weed out the grifters. Ban stock trading, too.
It’d be so cool if Americans held referendums deciding if their Congressional representatives get healthcare, pensions, and other benefits after they retire or lose reelection. Might actually encourage those representatives to vote in their constituents best interests every once in a while.
Remember during the worst days of Covid when Nazis claimed wearing a mask made it easier to kidnap women and children? Are you aware the same Nazis are now wearing masks and kidnapping women and children?
An abandoned building by the beach where a window overlooks the sea. The water through the window resembles a painting, so someone has scrawled Free Rothko on the wall.
Good morning.
I don't know who did this, but I love you.
Apparently the rumors are true: George Santos can suck the paint off a trailer hitch no matter how small
I’m more disappointed than all the evangelicals in the US combined that the rapture didn’t occur yesterday, and it’s not even close. I really can’t believe we have to continue to put up with these insufferable fucking assholes.
257. The Commission recommends that all Member States: (a) Employ all means reasonably available to them to prevent the commission of genocide in the Gaza Strip; (b) Cease the transfer of arms and other equipment or items, including jet fuel, to the State of Israel or third States where there is reason to suspect their use in military operations that have involved or could involve the commission of genocide; (c) Ensure individuals and corporations in their territories and within their jurisdiction are not involved in the commission of genocide, aiding and assisting the commission of genocide or incitement to commit genocide and investigate and prosecute those who may be implicated in these crimes under international law; (d) Facilitate the investigations and domestic proceedings and take action (including imposing sanctions) against the State of Israel and against individuals or corporations that are involved in or facilitating the commission of genocide or incitement to commit genocide; (e) Cooperate with the investigation of the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court. 258. The Commission recommends that the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court: (a) Examine, within its continuing investigation in the Situation in the State of Palestine, the crime of genocide for amendment to existing arrest warrants and addition to future application for arrest warrants; (b) Examine the involvement of officials mentioned in this report for inclusion as those most responsible for international crimes committed in the occupied Palestinian territory.
Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.
As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.
End the genocide. Ceasefire now.
The Naz…Republicans are so grossly incompetent at using government to help Americans that they can’t even seem to do so to catch the shooter who knocked off one of their Nazi buddies. It’s truly something to behold.
Ozzy showed up, too.
Kelly really looks a lot like Sharon. Also, she cohosts a Lego building show? Andy Richter in the mix, too.
There’s currently a NYT article on their website titled “Charlie Sheen is Ready to Tell You Everything,” and I may speak for myself here, but I REALLY don’t wanna know.
The book cover for Read This When Things Fall Apart: Letters to Activists in Crisis, Edited by Kelly Hayes. The book cover features an artistic rendering of a person with long hair wading into a body of water at night in a wilderness.
Just want to remind folks during these messy times that you can buy a copy of Read This When Things Fall Apart for an activist in need. This book is a care package that my friends and I made for people on the front lines & in the thick of crisis. Let's pass it around: www.akpress.org/read-this-wh...
They’re going to Weekend at Bernie’s the orange menace and we’re all gonna instantly know because of how eloquent he mysteriously becomes.
