“The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality.” James Baldwin

So here's the breakdown of demographics by a think-tank using 2018 US military data: www.cfr.org/backgrounder... In terms of affluence, the poorest quintile is under-represented, the middle three are overrepresented, and most come from middle-class backgrounds. Not exactly an army of destitutes.

LOVE: you are a weird cyber doll uploaded into robot shells dying again and again for corporations scavanging humanity's failed last hope while the fascist government robots try to stop you HATE: everything about actually playing the game.

played a little bit of that new Marathon game. The vibes are immaculate, and i love that you meet your computer mommy right away (yes, queen, i will do anything for you). It's just why did it have to be some extraction shooter apex legends type deal and not ANYTHING ELSE?

Allies are getting way too comfy with the gay and trans jokes lately we need to make them too uncomfortable to open their stupid mouths again

Your opposition to war can just be that war is evil. it doesn’t have to be more complicated than that.

Once again.

We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.

Every year we send our tax dollars to the almighty us government who gets right to work annihilating other people's children, schools and hospitals. We all deserve to fucking burn for what is done in the name of "our interests."

It's here. A visual novel of knights pushed to their breaking points, the power of love, and the sort of loathing you can only really feel for somebody that reminds you of yourself. THE FAIR UNKNOWN. maidandlion.itch.io/the-fair-unk...

A healthy film industry makes sleazy movies. Weird, borderline kink films are like coal mine canaries- they're offensive, often deeply personal, and a foil to the clean blandness of big budget propaganda. A lack of bizarre "not to everyone's taste" films is an indicator of a sickly studio ecosystem.

You know it's a classic pathfinder adventure when your PC gets vored by a giant toad 👍

Emergency protest happening now outside Columbia University after ICE agents used a “bogus missing persons flyer for a 5-year old girl” to gain access to a school-owned residence to detain a student. That student posted to her instagram this morning: “DHS illegally arrested me. Please help.”

I wrote this comic 2 years ago. I was terrified when I wrote it but had hope it wouldn't come to pass and would be a reminder of how bad things got before we pulled back. It not only has, it has gotten even worse. This is absolutely terrifying and will destroy lives if passed.

"who's my good girl?" "Excellent question! Let's explore that further: • 𝗚𝗼𝗮𝗹 𝗢𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗔𝗻𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗿 - We're trying to figure out who the good girl is, so maybe we should define good first? • 𝗢𝗰𝗰𝗮𝗺'𝘀 𝗥𝗮𝘇𝗼𝗿 - Sometimes, the simplest answer is also the correct one! • 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗱𝗱𝗶𝘁 𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝗮𝘆𝘀: "kill yourself"

we're all saying "i'm low key evil" on our way to green lane.

if they put me on the hidden king track

If I ever have to listen to that stupid counting crows song again it'll be too soon.

Unfortunately my work computer is likely either dead or gonna cost a shit ton to fix. And for a whole slew of reasons im broke as shit. So if anyone is feeling like being generous i would greatly appreciate it. 💜💜 ko-fi.com/iceghost

Girl came in our store asking if we were hiring and she seemed very nice and seemed professional enough but I thought the "I AM THE GOD OF FUCK" shirt was an interesting choice for an interview

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast. The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me. But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Though the exact number of times federal activity disrupted schools isn’t known, it’s clear the effect was widespread. The Sun-Times and WBEZ compiled the most comprehensive accounting to date.

Nothing like a Chicago winter to make 30 degrees and sunny feel like "god what a magnificent day to be outside"

@toomanymouths.bsky.social always appreciated seeing you around Walgreens! Very excited to learn you worked at prh! We should get coffee sometime and chat books!

This was also the kid who had me for secret Santa and I was the only kid in class who didn't get a gift. No clue why I thought about him this morning! Hope he's doing well. In high school he super glued his hand back together after crashing through a windshield.

One of my all time least favorite school assignments was writing a paper about a fellow classmate. We got randomly paired and I got this class bully who gave bullshit joke answers to all my questions, and then I got a bad grade when I wrote the paper on that

When someone tells me how old their child is I say "that's such a fun age" even if it's 37

it drives you insane how much erosion of freedom is justified by concern for kids when the people who actually hurt them will never face consequences

Out now! @hotoldersisgf.sisc.one joins the Bimbos to talk about her experience as a former labor organizer and policy analyst, the legislative process at the state level, transphobic legislation and how to not panic about it, and William H. Macy.

Our anniversary is whenever we want it to be bby 💋

Rbsky'ing this only because today is the actual anniversary day that i have in my phone so i get to be smugly correct

One of the wickedest things Wes Streeting has ever done is push politically convenient falsehoods about suicide rates amongst young trans people. We have new data from the National Child Mortality Database that exposes the truth he tried to cover up.

Celebrated 10 years with @chaos-hero.bsky.social and @kuunsaede.bsky.social last night. I love you both so much.

I feel like Los Angeles is a place where people expect ICE to happen because the kidnappings have been happening to my home city for decades, so there’s less media attention to it now. and I want folks to see that in LA, Latine students are organizing major protests & the police are attacking them

Me when PT Barnum writes about Charity wanting to switch churches because their universalist minister wasn't hard-line abolitionist enough for her.

Every three months Barnum gets back from some epic tour of america or europe and says "I am tired of this hustle and bustle, i am a family man now i will never again be an itinerant performer" and then Moses Kimball says 'hey man want to go be itinerant performers' and barnum is like 👀👀👀

Almost done with my PT Barnum biography and every time his wife Charity has appeared in the book i am shaking my head and muttering "that poor woman."

"hey katie where's your post about how trans women have done half of everything because did you know we did model trains too www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdZV... " splendid. i'm learning so much. trans women stay winning.

a quick comic about making art

White supremacists and transphobes will choose to remain in a social circle brimming with pedophiles as long as there are no black and trans people in them. Youtubers chose this. Network anchors chose this. Presidents chose this. Happily. Willingly. Are STILL choosing it.

just had a job interrview. feeling pretty good about it. I'm barely making rent RN so this job would be a life raft for me. wish me fish!

crazy that basically every person complaining about "woke overreach" over the last 12 years is also in the epstein emails being like "thanks for the pussy, jeff ;)"

Friends, we're thrilled to announce #Comics4Liam to encourage artists to draw pictures for Liam Conejo Ramos and share links to help Liam's family and other immigrants persecuted by ICE! Check out comics4liam.com and please do feel free to pitch in! Images by the great @trungles.com!

Why tf don't people want to put in their pin when they use debit?

Was trying to help a custo in cosmetics and didn't know exactly the fucking mascara she wanted so she exacerbated said: I need a girl! Me: ......I am a woman. Her: *literally shouting* REALLY?!?!?! 😱 Y'all....

Need a friend to follow me around and when I say something like "why did I get these tits if everyone is still gonna call me sir" they need to give me a smooch and say "babe you got those tits for you."
