LOS ANGELES: ICE is prowling Silverlake & the hills

27% is the standard crazification factor. It’s helpful, for me, to remember that in any given issue, 27% of the population is insane. H/t to john rogers for the original idea

The people that this chump wants us to vote for are doing fuck-all to stop this. This sleight of hand blames voters for the inaction of their representatives and is gross.

A lot of people on the left watched this slow motion car wreck of the trump eras and still thought trump was funny and liked seeing their perceived enemies “owned” and amplified rw propaganda. It’s good to see a few of them repenting but ppl won’t forget.

I’ve been the token libturd in quiet rooms with these ppl and they deemed you subhuman long ago. Sometimes, as a little treat, they’d lie and say, “not you though, Mike.”

The people that are showing up are acting from their hearts. They know wrong when they see it. Your head is trying to make sense of bad faith actors that are harvesting negative emotions. It doesn’t need to make sense. It’s wrong. Act from your heart.

national democrats had a lot more to say about charlie kirk than they do about Renee Good, and faster

BBC is reporting that the same ICE officer who murdered Renee Good was involved in another violent incident in June.

Obedience preserves systems. Wisdom demolishes them.

"A doctor at the scene attempted to help the woman who was shot, but was kept away by federal agents. When an ambulance finally arrived, it was blocked from reaching her by law-enforcement vehicles, and paramedics had to reach her on foot. The woman has died." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Visited a really cool off the grid community and our housing policies are so fucked. Stupid capitalism

When you’re in the harvesting sadness and negative emotions business, you gotta keep pushing the envelope

Ashli Babbitt and her family are a stain on San Diego county, from Lakeside to Ocean Beach.

Denmark always scores high on the happiness scale. The US is in the crushing happiness business.

The strip clubs in Vegas are dying. The ones with good AC get turned into pickleball courts or MMA gyms. Nature is healing(?)

Gonna go shred some gnar, aka stay upright as much as possible because am old

Enjoyed All Her Fault. They did a good job with the misdirection.

Wall Street’s biggest banks made more money financing green projects than they did from working with fossil fuel companies for a fourth straight year, even as they faced ongoing pressure to pull back from the business

Florida was part of Gondwana supercontinent and migrated to merge with N America. V different geologically from GA

No blood for oil *lionel hutz makes edits* No, blood for oil!

CBS news can’t do a story until they talk to “everyone”? All 8bn plus of us?

Get these sociopaths out of our neighborhoods and leave our actual neighbors alone.

Someone reanimate Porphyrios the whale and send him to St barts STAT

Watchin tired as hell dads at sea world duck out and emerge coughing behind a vape cloud. Solidarity, brothers. ✊

I remember ppl “on the left” using this same diminishment argument at the same time.

It’s tough (by definition) to make people that are polarized service-to-self happy. They want to use power over you (because you made them), not face any criticism or consequence for the use of power, plus you have to be nice to them when they need to feel human. Seems like a waste of time to cater

Some guy named Worm Man says we are all wrong about the constitution? Gonna ignore that I think.

Daughters made a solidarity pact to avoid saying the word “road” or mentioning sponge bob around me so I don’t start singing The Road Song. My dad powers are immense

Have a bunch of these. Rode an elevator with John Kerry in like 2006 and i regret not powerbombing him but I felt bad for him.

Willing to become part of new Aztlán or to be governed by Queen Califia. Either way really

2025 blew. Grateful for my little family for so much beauty, love, and support to make it through and still be smiling

Once you justify your brokenness with the belief that everyone else is just as broken as you or they’re lying, it’s over.

Hard to have any trust in systems, structures, institutions, etc. we can overthrow things you don’t believe are real by naming them and then walking away.

Hot Dog: The Movie Convinced mom it was a skiing movie (partially true)

Imagine how good Phillip Seymour Hoffman would be as a fighting the bottle Pat Summerall in the Madden pic. RIP to him

Boxing Day In the park I think it was the day after Christmas

Amazon facility nearby permanently closed return office and made it wayyyyyy more difficult to return stuff. Fuck too them and it’s a another good reason to use local options instead

Vermonter stepmom came through with the package from Dakin Farms 🙌 the holiday food miracles keep on rollin in

*Run Epstein distraction protocol “Colbert”*

Holiday season is about balance. I balance the long and cold nights out with a fridge full of tamales to reheat or just eat like a snickers bar in the middle of the night

The people who profited most from the cancel culture/free speech panic were less interested in actual freedom of speech than establishing their own control over public discourse. You don't even have to take my word for it. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

You fools! Bari can’t fail, only be failed by you so this is all your fault for not understanding properly!

Shen Yun got ppl out her knocking on doors and leaving literature. They already are just like evangelicals.

Oh yeah Global TV (in Canada or by VPN) has the full uncut 60 Minutes story on its 60 Minutes rebroadcast. CBS must have sent them the original tape.
