Here we go again, invading Denmark

The message of the Right reacting to Virginia is the same as the message of "2020 was rigged": no victory by anyone but us is ever legitimate. We are the only ones allowed to win. These people are cartoon villains entitled to no respect and no trust. Rabid dogs.

The Washington Post Editorial Board was fine with Republicans gerrymandering in Texas. But when Democrats responded in Virginia, it’s a “power grab” that “plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss.”

both are arrogant and overconfident, one is criminally stupid, and both are stupidly criminal. quite the pair.

Right: [reviles academia for generations, celebrates deportations for writing op-eds and protesting, dismantles departments it doesn’t like, enacts de jure speech codes] Left: [is sometimes annoying and unserious] Some Academics:

For the love of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and to restore and preserve the freedom our forefathers fought and died for, the War Department will DISCARD AND REJECT the woke prohibition on shitting in our drinking water. AMERICANS SHIT WHERE WE WILL.

I wrote a story of two doctors to illustrate what it really means to meet MAGA defectors where they are. We live in a sick nation, so we should pursue a culture of healing. And every movement toward health begins with a confrontation. www.the-reframe.com/a-confrontat...

Well, as it's #PortfolioDay, it's a good day to say I am currently looking for work. Get in touch if you are looking for art for your game, book, #ttrpg, #card game etc.

Thanks to his stunning defeat in the March primary, this will be Senate President Pro Tem Phil Berger’s 16th and final go-round running the General Assembly’s upper house. ncnewsline.com/2026/04/21/s... (Commentary) #ncpol

The social media pivot from chronological timelines to popular-first was done at least partly to throttle real time organizing

Your regular reminder that cops don't actually justify their existence or enormous budgets by solving much crime. Approximately 11% of all serious crimes result in an arrest, and about 2% end in a conviction. And then there's this...

Note for the uninformed: Kathleen Stock is an outspoken, fanatical transphobe. A better headline might have been "bully calls on bullying victim to put past bullying behind them (and bend over)".

Coachella is trying to wipe all of the footage of The Strokes protest set so I’m gonna post it here. The last images on the screen made me cry.

Another game jam done- this one's about making tea for a little forest fairy. Link to play in the replies!

And just to be clear this is what Trump was saying when he was racking up police endorsements www.politico.com/news/2024/09...

The fact that every major police union endorsed Donald Trump is under appreciated in our political discourse.

FINALLY

Things I keep saying that no one likes.

Notice the overarching trend of the personalization of politics (& straight graft). These people aren't negotiating anything on behalf of populations whom they ostensibly represent; those populations don't even factor to them. It's all a system of favors b/t businessmen who see financial opportunity

i don't want, to put an elf on the shelf, but when i think about you, i can't help myself.

This is a valid point: whenever you see this sort of high-pressure sales tactic turned on a technology, you can be CERTAIN that it's a fake—actually useful new tech sells itself! And don't underestimate the effectiveness of FOMO as a tool in the hands of a con artist.

Yeah, I’m back. 😉

Helen also goes on to talk about the importance of intersectionality and building alliances, as the far right is significantly more fragmented than us.

my latest books cartoon for @theguardian.com

Every time a Democrat mentions how to talk to "ordinary people" they mean "how I was told to talk by a handful of weirdo consultants in DC with gross fixations on throwing certain groups under the bus and who would not last a day in an ordinary job interacting with ordinary people."

2 notes on the NYT's S.Ct. scoop: - Roberts' parroting of industry's hair-on-fire claim of "irreparable harm" from environmental regulation. This is what industry ALWAYS claims. It's BS. - The absence of discussion of the ACTUAL harm the regulation sought to diminish. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

Some very intense neuro-breakbeat thing

OOP New York Times got receipts on John Roberts being like, 'I know this isn't how anything works, but a Democratic president is about to implement a policy!!' www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

It’s inaccurate to say Mario is brave and Luigi is cowardly Luigi is afraid of death, so he runs away from danger. Mario is afraid of living, so he runs towards death. Both brothers are cowards in their own way

And rather than merely make "questionable constitutional arguments," as Randy Barnett would have it, Eastman himself called the attempt to overthrow the election necessary and in the spirit of the Declaration of Independence's rising up over "intolerable" abuses (by which he meant Democratic rule).

VF/A-6H "Command" Alpha felt it would be cool to offer my chibi alpha in both versions, "standard" cartoon version and the Pride model. Though any who took affront to the Pride one? Can feel free to keep on steppin, from this and any of my posts. still need $400 for MRI ko-fi.com/bishopsbeerf...

Democrats being urged by politically toxic consultants not to oppose the politically toxic tech so as to not lose donations that are politically radioactive. Absolutely perfect Democrating.

Thr South Korean president criticized Israel, Israel got super mad about the mention of the Holocaust, and not the far worse reference. The president compared them to imperial Japan, which is like the worst thing a Korean can call anyone or anything www.theverge.com/policy/91358...

Not keeping your status stuff on completely separate infrastructure is… a choice I guess?

"Some seem to think that Trump’s brazen, profane, and vicious bellicosity is only a shrewd negotiating tactic or regrettable personality trait. That is not consolation; it’s fatal naivete." sojo.net/articles/opi...

“He cheated on the golf course. He cheated on his taxes. He cheated on his wives. He cheated the business contractors he stiffed. He tried to cheat in the 2020 election. And now he’s trying to cheat on the 2026 midterms - because he knows he can’t win.”

Kill it. Kill it dead. Burn the ashes. Bury them in the desert.
