Body cam videos of a Border Patrol chase in Chicago last fall appear to contradict the initial DHS narrative of agents executing a PIT maneuver—a nudging at high speed to disable a fleeing driver. Instead, feds blew a tire and crashed after a supervisor told them to stop the pursuit:

things were better when the computer lived in its own specific room and you only went in there sometimes

In honor of the 4th birthday of #Ofmd, search your phone's history for "our flag" to pinpoint the moment that you became insufferable to the people in your life.

Now and then I get a really lovely, philosophical ao3 comment on a filthy one-shot, and it feels exactly like this

Just thinking about this one has me reaching for a handkerchief 😢💜

new draw in your style challenge just dropped?

I saw this photo of Klay Thompson showing Megan Thee Stallion the cool stick he found and I was hit with the powerful need to see this drawn with Ed and Stede

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.

sorry i missed the virtual meeting on discord, liz. i got hit with the id verification that happens when the app detects youre young

Writing is difficult these days, but I really am trying to turn my meandering vignettes about Reno Jack (& Ed & Anne & Mary et al) into something readable in time for Disastercule Week. So enjoy this #WIPWednesday of Walt in 1960. He's 18, so obviously he knows eveything.

Chicagoan Marimar Martinez, who Border Patrol agent Charles Exum shot in October, just concluded her testimony before a bicameral forum on DHS agents' violent behavior in Washington DC. She concluded with this remark: "If there's no justice for the people, let there be no peace for the government."

Too Many Secrets sequel

Truly beautiful to behold

It's really distressing the extent to which in all of this Silverio Villegas González, the first man to be murdered by ICE in the streets, has been almost completely forgotten Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

I am begging somebody to make an animatic of the crew of the Revenge over this audio:

Martinez took five bullets from a CBP agent, and DHS went into overdrive claiming she was an armed threat to the agents who were merely defending themselves. Sound familiar?

Not could. Have. Fred Hampton.

it does feel fundamentally dysfunctional, right, to beg lawmakers to use the law to force law enforcement to obey the law

(The perfect opportunity to bring back my favorite ofmd post from @rottensoldier.bsky.social)

A lil friday night skywriting 🦷💖 It makes no sense that Ed is the one going out of his mind with nerves when Stede is the one at the dentist. But, in his defense, this is deeply personal. Might be the most important dental procedure of their entire relationship. 1/

No one believes this is how our laws work—not even the ppl saying it. They are consciously willing a new arrangement of power into existence, one that sweeps away sovereign states, civil rights, courts…a revolution. They are calling upon a paramilitary force to impose this vision upon us. Treason

just a reminder that we aren’t even seeing the worst of what is happening in Minneapolis from someone detailed at the Whipple Federal Building yesterday

Heads up, Twin Cities— CBP agent Timothy Donahue was photographed outside the Whipple building yesterday. In Chicago, he was documented aggressively detaining bystanders; also involved in at least one car crash. Most importantly, he also brandished his gun at a crowd in Evanston on 10/31.

This is the one @merryfinches.bsky.social made for my NASA boys! 💖💖💖

Ed starts to roll up his sleeves, watching Stede all the while, lips turned in a tiny smirk. He could be preparing to change a tire, prepping to get his hands dirty, but – oh, god. Stede groans embarrassingly loud as Ed descends on him again, kissing him fiercely while working to unbutton his shirt.

"He heard Ed moan into his mouth when their kiss deepened, felt the vibrations of it, tasted the raindrops on Ed’s lips. Every sensation felt like an atom bomb. Every nudge of Ed’s tongue felt like the end of the world, and the very beginning." A 2023 commission from @panodtortur.bsky.social

Magic Johnson was the grand marshal of the Rose Parade today, and as someone who remembers his November 1991 HIV announcement: if you had told anybody that day that he would be alive and healthy 34+ years later, I don't think they would have believed you. Medicine and research—they work.

🌵💍Did you know that there's a tiny little Christmas/New Years prequel one-shot in the Renoverse about how Lucius and Pete got together? Well, there is! And there's a podfic! And frankly, both are adorable.

The three main symptoms of Covid right now are… Sore throat Sinus congestion Runny nose AKA “a bad cold” or “awful allergies.” Please test and recognize that as we gain immunity and the virus evolves you may not experience a fever etc. LONG COVID, meanwhile, is 1/3.

I need Season 3 so that I can see Ed and Stede do exactly this

asking is never easy, but i'm struggling to afford groceries, meds, a handful of upcoming doctor's appointments, and my account is uncomfortably low at the moment 😓 if anyone is able to contribute, every little bit would be a huge help to this queer trans person rn 🫂🫶 ko-fi.com/patcheschance

Goodness knows if I'm even going to finish this in time, but since I'm in my Reno Cure feelings today, here's a little #WIPWednesday from 1975, featuring two character who have not appeared in the story before

and uh, and... death, you know... i'm used to death 😥 but, um... but not, um... your death 🥺 uh so, anyway, i uh... made this for you 😰 it looks like a thumb, but... it's a finger 😟 i whittled it 😞 it's dumb 😣 you don't have to wear it 😖

Absolutely nobody asked, but: Stede insists that their anniversary is July 5, the day they hooked up in the blue hotel room and confessed their feelings. Ed says it's July 28, the day Ed got on the train. They argue about this for years, and not always in particularly good faith.

I'm not saying "White Christmas AU", I'm just saying hear me out: Jack and Ed are Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye, a pair of star performers in the fifties, former Naval buddies. Jack saved Ed's life back in WW2, and uses that fact to guilt Ed into doing all kinds of wild stuff.
