Im here for the new wave of horror stories from the ER.

Time to boycott Chili’s.

Hehe spicy forbidden cheese

Mood. We dont need thousands of senseless deaths, only a choice few.

Mullin? He cheered ICE gunning down Renee Good, challenged a union President to fight in Congress and pushed deporting American babies. trump's installing a violence-loving bully to crush dissent and immigrants. Senate: Block this fascist thug #SheSaid

Folks under these reps, yo. Check in on your elected leaders and make it really fucking clear how you feel their decision impacts their job come election time

Shameful.

Real talk: CALL your Senators and state Senators and Representatives and the Governor. A petition will do zero to stop this. Calling your elected officials will. While the environmental impacts would be awful, it's worth emphasizing the significant economic impacts to the region.

I just called my US senators and told them to publicly call for Tim Sheehy to be expelled from the Senate for assaulting and apparently breaking the hand of a Marine today. You can call your Senators, too. Find them here: reps.fyi

"Palantir has boasted that they have automated the steps of the kill chain ... In this day and age when technology and AI, together with the arms of the Pentagon, can produce as lethal results as an atomic bomb, I don't want to live next to the people programming that technology."

[TW: graphic fracture, sound of breaking bone] Sen Tim Sheehy (R-Montana) badly breaking the arm of a Marine veteran protesting the war Iran.

It's secondary to the real issue of this attack on #Iran being an insane, ILLEGAL war, but the fact that a brave #American female pilot was shot down in #Kuwait must be driving #PeteHegseth crazy...er.

I teach my science students how to write comprehensive literature reviews, so every semester I meet with each of them to help them choose topics narrow enough they can actually do a comprehensive literature review in one semester

For years we said they’re going for a genocide of trans people and for years we were told to “stop being so dramatic.” Now we’re at the point of human experimentation with the explicit goal of eradicating us. Can we call the genocide a fucking genocide now?

Dearest people who don’t read or remember history: The reason Iran is ruled by Ayatollahs now is because the U.S. overthrew the democratically-elected Iranian President in 1953 to help American oil interests.

Come work with me! My game studio is hiring a Senior UI/UX Designer and a Senior Character Artist for our multiplayer PC strategy game in Unreal. Full time and fully remote in the US, Canada, or LATAM. Please share, ping friends, etc.

Hey. Tell people when they do good job. When you like the stuff they make. When you like the characters they’ve created. The stories they’ve told. Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time. Trust. They don’t. Tell. Them.

Mark Warner, vice chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, on elections: In the past, we’ve mostly seen foreign interference — my bigger fear now is domestic interference, some of that potentially originating inside the administration.

Happy Monday from Tuesday. 🔴🟡🌹

"At Human Rights Watch ... wealthy donors make up much of the board, giving them disproportionate leverage over decision-making. In some instances, staff members known for their public support of Palestine were quietly removed from donor meetings, reflecting how reputational risk is managed."

Rep. Lieu: “Were there any underage girls at any party that Trump attended with Epstein?” Bondi: “This is so ridiculous…There is no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime. Everyone knows that.” Lieu: “I believe you just lied under oath.” Bondi: “Don't you ever accuse me of a crime.”

Gym Jordan chairing a committee investigating sexual abuse is some next level sh¡t #Gym 🤼‍♀️ 🚿 🧼

Classy. Pam needs to go. Ive seen more integrity in a brawl on Jerry springer.

#StopTheSaveAct The "Save America Act" is an attempt to prevent women, BIPOC, and the poor from voting. It is an attack on voters through intimidation, suppression, and cost. Call (202) 224-3121 and tell your Senators/Representatives not to support this 2026 Jim Crow legislation.

Sound on. A new Olympic event just dropped.

I’ve managed an online community which skews towards younger, queerer people for 5+ years, and I’ve come to this same conclusion I’ve heard hundreds of stories from kids who’s parents effectively think of them as their slaves, and do not respect their autonomy in any way

Do you wanna make sure you didn’t miss a single second of symbolism from Bad Bunny’s halftime show? This thread gotchu!

This is a glimpse of the America I love and admire, too. A way out would be a dream come true, or perhaps just a nightmare ending. Either way... something needs doing.

I havent fact checked. This is horrifying

“Quit that shitty job,” Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong told America’s ICE agents at a Super Bowl pre-party last night. “Because when this is over — and it will be over at some point in time — Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, JD Vance, Donald Trump… they’re gonna drop you like a bad fucking habit."

Ben Meiselas reports on former President Bill Clinton ripping into Donald Trump for refusing to let him testify publicly after calling him out to testify publicly which Clinton accepted. youtu.be/loaEA4oQ4oI?...

You should add that even your own constituents are starting to call Trump out on it now. bsky.app/profile/fact...

Safety net supports like the Child Tax Credit can provide security that increases economic prosperity. For example, Mr. Bezos was worth just about $9 billion when when he claimed the CTC in 2007, and is now worth about $260 billion. Lets invest in everyone the way America invested in Bezos!

"We have three more months to avoid an epic, biblical famine before the rainy season comes and the roads will be impossible in this part of Sudan," said Jan Egeland of the Norwegian Refugee Council. "So we have to surge aid." https://to.pbs.org/4aarVb3

Arrakis, one of the most complicated knitting patterns available on Ravelry, is finished. Hellshawl is done.

Remember that midnight raid in Chicago supposedly to arrest Tren del Aragua members? Newly revealed court docs show that the raid was facilitated by the building owners who are now accused of using the raid to evict tenants. DHS never mentions TDA in their filings: www.propublica.org/article/chic...

What’s not to love about Minnesota, these people are awesome!

The ICE surge in Minnesota has meant dogs losing homes. If you can foster Murphy, get in touch at the email listed.

Translated: they're buying vlogging rigs for ICE to improve the Content they're making while brutalizing Minnesota

If you havent restored your last name post divorce, do it before the elections. #midterms

No notes 🤌🏻

It's groundhog day. I havent checked on whether or not to expect 6 more weeks of winter. It won't matter if we have 6 more weeks of ICE terror tormenting the People. #fuckICE #fucktrump

Sexual grossness must go with election-fraud grossness. It was Ken Starr's proteges Brett Kavanaugh & Alex Azar who stopped the recount of the FL presidential vote in 2000 - helped by Ted Cruz, who later stopped the 2020 electoral count to let the Jan 6 attack proceed. 5/ www.npr.org/2016/03/08/4...

Ken Starr busily worked to limit the sexual freedom of others. He pushed for the CA gay marriage ban Prop 8. (So did John Eastman, just pardoned for his 2020 fake elector scheme.) He's on the board of ADF, which got Roe v Wade overturned. (ADF helped in the fake elector scheme too.) 4/
