Hey @govpritzker.illinois.gov, people are doing what you asked. This is an elected Alderperson being arrested. What are you going to do?

From the same people who brought you "Cancel Kimmel" and "Talk nice about a horrific human because he's dead" comes... more hypocrisy!

I struggle to imagine how these commanding officers are feeling having to listen to this fake-tough chucklefuck lecture them. And their "reward" is getting to hear never-served TACO Trump ramble on afterwards.

So who's going to tell him that a White Knight mentality is toxic? And then follow up that knights don't wear hoods?

Just in case you needed another piece of evidence in the "This Administration Is The Dumbest In History" file:

Dutch late night TV has its take

Disney+: "Why are you cancelling your subscription?" Me: Well since you're asking...

So the government in power is declaring ANTIFA as a terrorist organization. The government declaring that anti-fascists are terrorists. Again, ANTI-FASCISTS are the problem. For the government. What, exactly, does that say about the government in power? And how they see themselves?

Needing a piece for an upcoming costume, I found two that were magnificent and exactly what I need. One would ship from the UK, the other from Ukraine. Shipping cost alone was over $60. With a delivery window of 6 weeks. For a mask. I feel horrible for these international sellers.

The same people saying there could be no tolerance for what was being said about Kirk's death...

Taking everything in me not to share my own thoughts yet. For now, I'll just share Kirk's.

Iphone 17 is out YouTubers in 2 days : #AppleEvent

Worth repeating: I have never been so happy to have been wrong about Pritzker. He's the one I want at the helm of this state in the coming days.

I am once again asking you to stop sending us money. But we do need your time. ⏰ zohranfornyc.com/events

To be clear: I despise the NRA. That said, I am shocked they actually found a spine and fully declared they were against the idea of a ban against Trans individuals. Now we watch all these MAGAt head-explosions as they have to choose between the NRA and what the Chucklefucks In Charge are doing.

ICE is turning around now, escorted by Broadview police. Crowd is jubilant. Someone is shouting, "this is what it takes! They are turning around!"

One of the most accurate things I have ever read: if you have 1 friend in Chicago, you have 20 friends in Chicago. To illustrate: prior to my partner moving here from Wisconsin, she had friends and acquaintances in the area but it was only after her full arrival that she had the full experience.

Boosting the signal here. More people should know about Graham Platner.

*Ahem* Fuck JK Rowling. Trans rights are human rights. Read this woman's journey. Everything they went through. And how the government's actions are truly despicable. Again, all together now: Fuck. JK. Rowling. And all her efforts that have hurt all trans people in the country.

GIMME! (If you have not seen Psycho Goreman, DO SO. Then you too will know the excitement of this upcoming movie.)

this (from the brilliant @everywhereist.bsky.social) puts into words the big black tangle of frustration i have whenever i get the same question

I need all of these because they so perfectly capture the spirit of this place. To summarize: Chicago is the greatest, friendliest big city you can visit that will not tolerate fake people or their bullshit.

So says the Chucklefuck with 34 felony convictions...

Tim Walz : trans rights are human rights JB Pritzker : we’re taking names of all you fuckers and coming after you Gavin Newsom : lol my pr firm made another meme while i guest starred on another right wing podcast

Can't even build death star anymore, because of ewok

🧵🧵🧵 Trump often lies about Chicago, using a great American city as a punching bag to entertain out-of-town racists who are scared of Black and Latino Chicagoans whom they’ve never met. He’s threatening a military occupation. Here’s a thread about Chicago, Trump and crime. 1/

On last night's Hidden Forms Radio show, I had to play an edited version of my conversation with @causticmf.bsky.social because of time constraints. Thankfully I was able to upload the full version of our chat (and the Different songs) to my MixCloud. It's there. Waiting for you. Go. Listen.

New headcanon unlocked.

Programming news: I'm back at the controls of Hidden Forms Radio this Saturday from 6-8pm CT. You can stream Chicago's longest running Industrial/Goth radio show anywhere you'd like at wnur.org. This week: a special interview with @causticmf.bsky.social about his latest album and all things music.

Captain Chucklefuck here knows coming to Chicago will kick things off. Chicago is a no bullshit city and (I cannot stress this enough) it absolutely /hates/ Trump. Sending in out-of-state national guard troops is akin to attempting to extinguish a fire with napalm.

Just saw all your comments from last night’s post and someone shared a pic, Orlando showed up and used chalk to bring the rainbow crosswalk back! We love this so much!!! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Having a hard time guessing if this is a favorite haunt of @gailsimone.bsky.social or if she went straight to franchising. Either way, would recommend.

There are some amazing YouTube channels mentioned in this thread. I will recommend prioritizing Bobby Fingers. His videos are an absolute joy.

This is why Israel won’t allow international media into #Gaza. This is Beit Hanoun. It was a thriving city of 67,000 people. Nothing is left - the result of the Israeli state attempting to exterminate Palestinian society. The war crime of the 21st century. #Genocide (🎥 Gaza Notice)

Watching clips of Trump fielding questions this morning and, whoa boy, the accordion hands are in overdrive. Almost like he's trying to do a speed metal cover of Oom-Pah-Pah.

Perfect summation of my Gen-X self this week:

after a very frustrating call with Visa (US+CAN), I was told that Visa would like inquiries relating to using their bargaining power to destroy adult media to be sent, via email, to [email protected] they asked. to be sent. emails. you know what to do.

Today's entry in my "...the fuck!?" file: man making pro-ICE and pro-Trump comments whose profile image is them dressed as Spider Jerusalem. Just... how? How do you embrace a niche character like that without ever reading /and/ comprehending who they are?

Take a look. Not ICE. Just ordinary “officer friendlies” doing what this country allows them to do to unarmed Black men. Remember?

i can see this one is going to get a lot of use

The Trump administration's decision to end the 988's specialized lifeline is a cruel reversal of proven practices. In Illinois, we stand with our LGBTQ+ community. If you need help and you call 988 here, you'll still be met with compassion and respect.

A part of me hopes Pritzker doesn't run for President because I think he would win and my state would lose the best governor it has had in my lifetime*. (* - A case could be made for "ever" but I wasn't alive for "ever" so I'm being conservative in my appraisal)

An experiment I would love to see that will never happen: All TV feeds to the White House are cut. All social media sites blocked. I honestly do not know how the Terrible Tangerine would respond beyond "ketchup bottle apocalypse."

Hey... I know most everyone seeing this already understands that people like Fine are showing their true, utterly abhorrent and terrible selves. But keep sharing. With everyone. Because this should be universally called out. And if someone sees nothing wrong with it, now you know who they are.

THIS was an official correspondence to two sovereign nations? I'd consider this the bastard child of a creepy used car salesperson and the most annoying spam message you've ever received.

Long ago in the LiveJournal days, an associate told me he would not abide grave dancing. I haven't associated with said person in a very long time but I hope their eye is twitching as I put on some Tactical Sekt and dance-stomp all over Jimmy Swaggart's grave.

This is a concentration camp. It should not be called any other name nor have any other descriptors used. Call it what it is. And is someone tries to argue with you on it, you have a clear picture of who they are as a person.

Should that happen, here is what he'll say: "We'll have information on a response in two weeks."

America opens a concentration camp today. They are selling merchandise for it. Concentration camp merchandise. So this is late stage capitalism... fascism but monetized.
