How To Accidentally Scare A Paralegal At Work: Lib: “Oh my god the DOJs reputation might never recover and they might never even be able to fully staff again now that attorneys are disgusted by them!” Me: “I know, isn’t it great? It might actually get abolished by attrition” Lib: [MASSIVE SIDEYE]

Democrats should be wary if they're being rooted on by opportunistic Never Trump Republicans

Almost 15 years ago now I created what I call my “monitoring email.” It’s an email that only receives news alerts, and newsletter updates from political figures I want to monitor the behaviors of. This is where I receive Trump supporter emails, and I noticed a trend in the last two weeks:

New from 404 Media: we've seen internal documents that show Microsoft is explicitly planning to "make people addicted" to its new AI assistant 'Scout' which the company just announced. It is a clear goal according to the documents, with addiction being the first phase www.404media.co/microsoft-wa...

The mayor of Newark is promising to lift the curfew around Delaney Hall and drafting a lawsuit against the GEO group that runs it. But these are not reasons to stop mobilizing to support the hunger strikers. They're just proof that continuous pressure in the streets works. Fight on until victory.

Graham Platner: ‘I Didn’t Know Extramarital Sexting Was A Symbol For Cheating’

These fascists are really going for it, aren't they?

I think sometimes about how there’s a finite amount of helium on the planet and a bunch of Nazis appropriating the aesthetics of Judaism blew up a bunch of it because a pedophile wanted to look strong

this is so fucked. we wrongly imprisoned duncan for 30yrs before he got out. he was completely exonerated, graduated from law school, ran for one of the positions that had been fucking him over, won in a landslide, and in response the legislature dissolved his position before he could take office.

Mikie Sherrill’s state police destroyed the mutual aid tent for families of the detained that had been in operation at Delaney Hall for more than a year, providing clothes, food, even stuffies for the kids. They just trashed it. I’m pretty speechless at the kind of person you have to be to do this

I need everyone to understand that "law and order" is a euphemism of fascism. That the people most obsessed with that phrase are inevitably seeking a society of domination where they are the dominators.

Pretty consistent through line in history that any time an oppressed/marginalised group fights to secure their basic rights and humanity, a segment of the petit-bourgeois get driven fucking insane and turn into frothing-mouthed, asocial, revanchist lunatics—except this time in the UK, fortunately.

After ICE deported Wendy Hernandez Reyes, it turned her 3-year-old son Orlin over to her sister’s estranged partner, who tortured Orlin and beat him to death. I can’t say what I think should happen to those responsible without violating this website’s TOS. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Reminder that Klingons say TRANS RIGHTS BRING HONOR TO YOUR HOUSE

now is the time for steady craftin

Happy Pride Month!

Around 500 People Are Now On A Hunger Strike at Five ICE Detention Centers Across the US It started in New Mexico, now more than 100 ppl in California at the Adelanto facility to Prairieland Texas to over 300 ppl at Delaney Hall in New Jersey are all currently on hunger strike @lataco.bsky.social

When an incompetent neofascist is trying to print currency with his face on it and directing political prosecutions that fall flat 99% of the time and that neofascist is the actual sovereign of a fiat currency… Powell calls it a “stress test” Stress more, Jerome!

Ex-Army bud: “If your father was active military and you lived on base then you lived in an abusive household.” There’s a basis for this statement I understand, but it still seems like a pretty big generalization, impoverished people who join the babykiller brigade for survival are capable of care

Look, Graham Platner may have enthusiastically signed up to murder people and gotten a Nazi tattoo, but at least he's also completely untrustworthy and too stupid to delete the accounts he uses to betray the person closest to him.

my outlandish wish for this pride is id like no more trans people to die

“Unhealthy Abrahamic Buy-In,” is my new boyband of antizionist New York Jews, one construction guy from the Catholic Workers, and several flamboyantly gay British Muslims, we are in a violent beef with “Matisyahu” over his fake Jamaican accent. (Sound tech is a stoned Canadian Zoroastrian)

Maybe it’s just for fun but…if you’re gonna argue about Christian bigotry on Christianity’s terms…I have a hard time believing you don’t have some amount of unhealthy abrahamic buy-in. Yeah their god is genderless, and asserts that humans should dominate the natural world among other hierarchies.

This is insane for an entire theater, for an indefinite period. Free-fire zones are a thing, but for U.S./NATO troops, they're limited to individual engagements. Off the top of my head, I can only think of two large-scale examples over the combined 20-year-long wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

happy Pride Eve to all the people who are about to paraphrase this tweet from 2022 or repost it with my name removed as if it’s a thought they just had themselves

Planter’s advisor turned an off-the-record source into an on-the-record source. The best and the brightest.

You don't have to like Hasan or Cenk to understand how deeply fucked this is ...when these countries roll out the red carpet for wanted war criminals. This will fuel antisemitism too and Israel happens to love that.

“I don’t care if they don’t want to move, push them(press) yourselves”. New Jersey state and local police are trying to stop press from recording. Using acts of violence and intimidation to comply with unlawful orders. Despite being LIVE on camera, officers are operating as a lawless gang.

Truly a haunting reminder that the people who say Mikie Sherill, JB Pritzker, Tim Walz, and Gavin Newsom have no choice but to have state police beat and gas protestors in order to keep Trump from installing martial law are not people to ever be taken seriously.

I am disgusted and devastated. Who is legitimately fighting to stop what’s happening inside Delaney Hall? Here’s a hint: Mikie Sherrill’s state police just arrested them all. That’s it.

Outside Delaney Hall today.

just re-upping. Newark and New Jersey governance are explicitly aiming to ease ICE operations at Delaney Hall. the dozens arrested and injured amid the protests outside are being depicted as “agitators.” this mimics what we’ve seen in many other Dem-run areas with anti-ICE protest/direct action.

#OtD 31 May 1927 Donald Trump's father, Fred Trump, was arrested at a KKK rally in Queens, NYC. Despite Donald Trump denying it happened, multiple newspapers reported it, giving Fred Trump's address and reporting all those arrested as wearing KKK robes stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1039...

This is who @schumer.senate.gov marched with in the Israel Day Parade today.

Cheap nursing homes are warehouses for the dying.

Right now I’ve deleted all images and thumbnails from my Linktree. Gonna move to a new pointer/landing page and then delete the linktree, lmk if people have recommendations

another platform drops due to AI enshittification. i'd like to say im surprised, but i'm not. get off linktree ASAP. there are alternatives in the comments.

I do not like this gen AI I do not like what it implies I do not want it in my art I do not think it makes you smart I do not want it in my games I do not like its goals and aims I do not want it in my books I do not like the way it looks I do not like it, I don't care I do not want it anywhere

Are we finally ready to talk about how terfs have been helping the far right destroy women’s rights by pushing hyper femininity yet or is it too early for this decades old information too.

NPR finally waking up to the BREAKING news that all racists are also misogynists: www.npr.org/2026/05/27/n...

When they say "safety," they do not mean your safety. They don't mean the safety of the detainees who are on hunger strike to call attention to the life-threatening conditions in Delaney Hall. They don't mean the safety of the protesters they tear-gas. They only mean the safety of their regime.

Crony Capitalism is just Capitalism, that's how Capitalism works. You call it Crony Capitalism to support the fantasy that there's a magical "true" capitalism that doesn't murder and exploit people as a load bearing structural feature but Nope! This is it! This is the Capitalism!

The way these "AI checkers" work is very, very simple. It feeds part of the text into an LLM. If the LLM predicts, correctly, the missing text, it scores that as proof the LLM produced the text. And LLM's literally stole *every fucking book and forum post ever fucking written* to train on.

And with this, your other daily reminder: Democrats 🤝 Republicans Fucking over the people Voting for 99% Hitler WILL NOT improve your life. The economy will not recover because you helped genocide 1% of the poorest people in the world. But taking back the wealth hoarded by the richest 1% does.

After the police tear-gas people, the mayor announces a curfew for their "safety and well-being." In fact, the curfew will only empower the police to attack people more freely. Democratic politicians are doing Trump's dirty work—while the captives of ICE remain on hunger strike in Delaney Hall.

When Democratic politicians set out to preserve "law and order" under the reign of Donald Trump, they are siding with fascism. By sending state police to brutalize those who are protesting in solidarity with the hunger strikers, New Jersey governor Mikie Sherrill is doing exactly what Trump wants.

every leftist I've ever talked to fucking hates this guy and vocally opposes him at every turn, only to get screamed at by centrists and weird libs who have no problem with nazi tattoos, do not blame this absolute laminated cheese platter on us

been saying for years that the logical endpoint of blue no matter who is supporting a nazi running as a democrat and everyone called me a loony but here we are aren't we

Last year, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker used federal agents' penchant for deploying chemical agents on people to defend the establishment of a "unified command" of state and local cops who would guard the Broadview, IL ICE facility. Don't think that alibi will work for NJ police.
