Maybe 2 minutes before I saw this thread I randomly remembered Jessie Burke was leaving Portland and got a warm, fuzzy feeling. There is a great satisfaction that comes from thinking someone sucks and then finding out how much worse they were than you thought. Byeeeeee

#TBT - Jessie Burke edition - not in order Since she is moving (bye bye) it feels fitting to give her a nice send off of her "greatest hits"

If ICE can kill anyone it wants with impunity, then none of us have any meaningful rights. It’s that simple.

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

Hi. So your boy needs a kidney & I’m officially on the #transplant list. Please share this as it would mean a lot to me to get a living donor.

doge is going to give everyone diarrhea. which would be funny if it didn't mean old people and babies will die.

tax the rich but also make each of them walk down a runway where they get an extra tax if i think their outfit is ugly

Are sports stadiums a scam?

As a person who has done a lot of work for my union and loves unions in general: Unions are just the people in them. And a lot of people are wrong and ill-informed. Many, in fact, suck shit. This is a classic case of having no class solidarity or common sense.

One of my hardest-won political lessons is that it’s never, ever worth it to treat ppl as ~indispensable no matter what they do~ —bc we *see* the contributions & potential of the abusive men & we don’t get to see that in the women they drive out. We never actually get to know what we’ve squandered

My website is live. It took weeks because I'm not a tech guy but I feel pretty good about it! Now people can see all my work in one place and hire me if they like what they see. Still tweaking the mobile version but I'm sure it'll be a process as I add/subtract things: www.benjamindeweyart.com

tfw you’ve just finished pissing on jefferson davis’ grave

Who is capable of heavy lifting and available in the following time slots? Sunday, 7/5, 9-10am Sunday, 7/5, 6-7pm Monday, 7/6, 6-7pm Tuesday, 7/7, 10-11am Wednesday, 7/8, 10-11am Wednesday, 7/8, 7-8pm (I could go on, but let’s see what we can do in the first half of the week. I appreciate y’all.

As a former professional athlete, this is one of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard. Your kid has a less than 1% chance of getting an athletic college scholarship. You’re better off putting the money into a 529 plan.

Spock tolerated pussy

a song about how to enjoy fireworks by carter vail

Paul Verhoeven undefeated

I would be fine with there never being fireworks, ever again.

A reminder that as you see photos of those Patriot Front douchebags today, they are marching on a holiday because none of them have anywhere else to be. None of them have friends or family who want them around on a holiday. No one is missing them today. They're already with their only friends.

Much like today, in December 2021, neo-Nazi Patriot Front members marched through DC with uniforms and masks. Later that night, they would encounter antifascist sabotage, leaving numerous vehicles damaged or inoperative. Here's some PF members unmasked via police video obtained by Unicorn Riot:

looks like ICE agents got the day off today

I am videotaped on a CHUD watchlist somewhere because I saw Chuck Johnson (remember him?) at a march somewhere and I followed behind him yelling the locations of public bathrooms in case he needed it.

Every single time the chuds march they try to not do anything embarrassing and every single time they fail. “This time we’ll look cool and people will do a Turner Diaries for sure!” and then someone does something to the tune of Yakkity Sax because they are all such losers and always will be.

Won some Warhammer. But more importantly, I had a great time with a friend who also had a great time.

I do not give a shit if the Blazers leave Portland. I do give a shit if a billionaire swindles the city out of my tax dollars. I literally do not care if this makes me short sighted or I’m not thinking of the tax revenue and blah blah blah. Happy to be a low info voter on this one.

I’m over 45. Colonoscopy age. So far, I haven’t had to have one because they give me a home kit to collect a sample once a year and then will escalate, as needed. This means every year for 2 months I am disappointed in myself every time I take a shit because I forgot to get the sample.

I think this is a good and compassionate take from Keezy. However, publishing contracts usually contain clauses that specifically say any accusations of academic misconduct, plagiarism, inaccuracy etc are on you, the author, not on them, the publisher. Here is what I think happened--

what did the termite ask for in exchange for his labor room and a board

one fun thing about this decision from the vatican is it does technically excommunicate augustus invictus, the nazi lawyer who is very involved with his SSPX parish. suspended from the florida bar & excommunicated from the catholic church in the same year. that’s rough!

the next thing you impulse buy WILL change your life. do NOT wait or second guess yourself, this time it IS going to be different

fond teenage memories of when he died and my boss hurriedly had us go take down the "See You Soon!" posters of Dave holding a spatula, surrounded by flames, by both exits

Simply irresponsible advocacy from an editorial board. There is no reasonable policy case for devoting $600 million of taxpayer money to underwrite the luxury pursuit of a private business. None.

speaking of webcomics I still think this Hark A Vagrant panel is like. the single funniest image of all time

The World Cup should employ a team of commentator Historians who describe the historical relations and tensions between the two countries over the course of the match.

These are the exact guys pushing for KOSA BTW.

This was correct in 2014, as was "Sotomayor & Kagan should immediately retire in Jan 2021," as was "Thurgood Marshall should have retired in 1978" etc. Pretending Justices were irreplaceable geniuses instead of aging partisan votes in a 9-member super-legislature has been Democrats' fatal error.

Court reform is a moderate, centrist position because in the absence of court reform, people will be forced to resort to extralegal means to defend the rights that the court is erasing from law. These amendments were written in blood and stealing them away will guarantee more bloodshed to come.

“If this ordinance passes, it will set a dangerous precedent for undermining the new police accountability system regardless of where the removed funds are spent—but transferring them in part to the police bureau looks especially bad and will further deteriorate public trust on this issue."

Guaranteed: 1) Black girls will be harassed and demanded to be tested over and over again regardless of how competitive they are. 2) Winners from public schools will be relentlessly hounded by the parents and coaches of losers at private schools, with the goal of making them quit the sport.

I am tired of the genital inspectors. All of my thoughts about how few people are making life miserable for many people and what I’d like to do about it are all TOS violations.

hey when we say that liberals and democrats are worse than useless on trans rights this is the kind of shit we are talking about :) by the way :) what is the fucking point of conceding on title IX like this. what is the fucking point.

I don't think people understand the degree to which outlets like The Atlantic and The New York Times set back trans rights with second-rate reporting that doesn't stand up now, let alone in the future. They have failed at the most basic journalistic duties.

Good day to post this sticker @kaylapekkala.com made at her @tinywerewolves.com shop tinywerewolves.com/collections/...

A thing I learned at ALA Annual this year: Just MENTIONING Warhammer40k in public is like uttering the secret Manchurian Candidate activation phrase for like 1 in 100 people in the room They straighten up and whip their heads around like a coyote that just heard a newborn fawn bleat in panic
