Awesome clip. What a heartfelt commentary by an attorney. There is on the ground help for those who ICE engages with. Please share this clip so that those who are victimized and require legal aid can connect and get the help they need. He supplies donation links. youtu.be/nDEAWxG7Bq8?...

Putin pioneered this. No opposition is legitimate. Regular, decent, “ordinary” people cannot possibly be against us because only we represent “the real people.” Tell-tale sign of authoritarianism.

Just found out this dude’s store is called Dreamhaven Books. dreamhavenbooks.com

Bovino (and the rest of them) should be put in GenPop. No accommodations, no privileges, nothin’. Really drive it home to them that thinking that you’re the Special Boy™, the Main Character™, etc. leads to one thing: ending up a COMMON CRIMINAL. You ain’t special, li’l Greggy— and you never will be.

This will end VERY POORLY, I hope… But it depends upon us reminding them that the current Republican Party is the Party of Projection. #EveryAccusationIsAConfesion

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

Time to drop this constantly correct meme again:

“Get it all on record now — get the films — get the witnesses — because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.” Dwight D. Eisenhower, after visiting liberated concentration camps in April 1945

the fact that the NRA is offering even this incredibly mild level of resistance is significant. People do not like what they are seeing.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

You know the "good guy with a gun" the right is always talking about? Yeah, they killed him today.

THIS TIMES A THOUSAND. I don’t care if they’re your friends/family. THEY ARE THE ONES WHO VOTED FOR THIS BARBARIC ADMINISTRATION *AGAIN* THEY DID THIS TO US. If what happened to Rene Good and Alex Pretti happened to *you* they’d make the same excuses. WAKE UP.

furthermore, the GOP is just furthest along the track a lot of non-American far-right parties are running. Turning to fascism when you don't get your way 100% of the time is just, apparently, an inherent vice of conservative politics

The first Minnesota murder, they refused to let a medical professional help the woman they shot. The second Minnesota murder, they simply shot the medical professional.

I was also the product of an unplanned teen pregnancy. I was adopted. I am deeply grateful. However, I completely support access to abortion and a woman's right to choose. I do not think one is related to the other, and trying to connect them is intellectually and morally dishonest.

ICE just crashed a car at my intersection (due to their own shitty driving) and immediately got out and tear gassed observers.

Alan Moore: "I've finally decided to look at the internet. Let's see what's going on." [Googles "Watchmen"] Alan Moore: "No...oh no. This can't be." [logs off internet, returns to the misty hills from whence he came]

Hunter S Thompson shooting himself after saying for years he was going to and then having a bureaucracy take over twenty years to agree with him is so in the spirit of a lot of what he spent time complaining about

Finally.

It's STFU Friday. Refresh the script 👇

This is an absolutely scathing takedown of some people who couldn’t deserve it more, and you should read it

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

It makes me straight-up cackle how much this bothers a certain strain of TREK freak. I hope she never sits in a single chair correctly for the entire run of the show.

The Robert E. Howard Foundation celebrates Bob's 120th birthday with poems + story excerpts. I'm honored to be in the line-up alongside other authors, literary scholars, pulp researchers, and lifelong fans. Check it out and raise a glass to the man and his work: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ClUF...

For our English speaking friends (because this deserves to be shared) “if it wasn’t for all the school shootings nobody would believe they have schools in the USA”

"We don't have to let atrocities define America" but America was built on atrocities. America sustains itself through atrocities. And America is not alone in that. So perhaps, perhaps clinging to the myths and ignoring the realities isn't actually effective in the slightest

I’ve heard a bit about this from Chip already, but my god, Chip Zdarsky guest editing a MAD Magazine styled parody of DC called MAD About DC is just too perfect. Especially because it’s being released on April 1st! Can’t wait!

I find this unbearably beautiful as an expression of the joy that comes from making art together as human beings. This is what the AI dickheads will never understand and never feel.

Listen to me... all the people we have been warned not to trust The Horny The Poor The rebellious The agitator The unusual The Punk The disenfranchised embody prophetic urgency in the earth realm

If made for TV movies based on real events hadn't been left behind in the 90s, some Fox exec would be shitting himself trying to get the rights to this rn.

Ronny Chieng does a great bit about this where he goes "look, the deal was the rest of the world would buy your debt and make your shit for you, and your side of the deal was you'd go to school and invent more shit all the time and gradually make everybody better, except you decided 'nah'"

Imagine investing the world economy in data centers just to get beaten by a girl with a box of pencils.

The incredibly lukewarm Democratic response on Greenland is being noticed in Europe, incidentally. Chuck Schumer not finding a stronger word than “quixotic” for Trump’s plan to seize Greenland has been name checked to me more than once.

I must be a bad STAR TREK fan, because I *adored* the first episode of STARFLEET ACADEMY. Immediately invested in the new cast, love the set-up, can't wait to unravel the mystery of the protagonist's mom. I'm all in.

Started watching Letterkenny on the strong rec of @mckelvie.bsky.social and @katiewest.bsky.social and it feels like the most Achewood thing I've ever seen in live action. I'm ten thousand percent hooked, by which I mean I'm entirely hooked and am also hooked on behalf of 99 of the rest of youse

I really want to do something with this idea…

"Mix-up" = Black people yelled at me Glad he came to his senses. So...is Nelly still performing?

This is gimmick infringement.

The last scene of THE BONE TEMPLE is Da Costa’s “end of NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD” moment (and that’s not the spoiler you think it is). A tossed-off line of dialogue that just says everything about where we are right now. More relevant now than when they filmed it months ago.

I genuinely don't understood how America took the emoluments clause -- the common-sense bar on a president using his powers to line his own pockets, a law children can understand -- and just said, nah, that doesn't apply for our Very Special Boy.

There weren’t enough Star Trek Discovery episodes to really get to know the characters. I still struggle to even remember their names. Crime Girl Tall Land Fish Peppy Cheerleeder Full Cyber Girl Half Cyber Girl Owishushikamikazizeekeetookee Always Tense Science Gay Science Gay’s Doctor Boyfriend…
