this is an act of unspeakable violence. it benefits no one, it doesn’t move a number on a balance sheet. it only guarantees that every one of these incarcerated transgender people will be tortured.

For the people in the back…

RIP TikTok. The ultimate example of the olds not getting it. It is especially ironic that we're freaking out about a foreign owned social network when we're letting untrustworthy figures straight through the door over here

So I'm Zillow-browsing for fun, and I happened across a $42,000,000 ranch... and its main selling point is literally "We took this land from the Indians in a battle." Who the fuck buys this and also what the fuck?

To all of those who have asked, I will not be acknowledging the Inauguration on January 20th.

In 1922 Alfred Stieglitz made a series of photographs of cloudy skies, calling them Equivalents because they matched an emotion or mood he was feeling. This is my Equivalent for today.

Just making sure that everyone is aware of this crab that NOAA scientists found

DO IT FOR JIMMY

Makes about as much sense as any other reason...

Are you out there?

Had a little buddy join me for lunch today. He kept trying to drown himself in my Dr Pepper, so I gave him some of his own. Sharing is caring, after all. Always nice to make a new friend.

The year is 2025. Kamala Harris is president. You have $200 in your bank account. When you deposit an additional $99,999,800 Kamala will begin to tax your unrealized capital gains. Your fist clenches. The communists have won.

Saved this meme to my phone a couple years ago. It has crossed my mind regularly since. You know, whenever there's bullshit. So like, all the time.

We made a comic about Trump and Twitter.

This is exactly my experience on the internet

IDK, but I think little kids having to be evacuated from their schools because the former president and his VP pick are inciting anti-immigrant violence should be the lead story for every major news outlet.

Forced birth in a country with: —No universal healthcare —No universal childcare —No paid family & medical leave —One of the highest rates of maternal mortality among rich nations Again, the right's agenda isn't about "life." It's about control.

NEW: Abortion Bans Have Delayed Emergency Medical Care. In Georgia, Experts Say This Mother’s Death Was Preventable. At least two women in Georgia died after they couldn’t access legal abortions and timely medical care in their state, ProPublica has found. This is one of their stories:

An alleged assassination attempt by a mentally ill person using a gun is a terrible reason to vote for the man who made it easier for mentally ill persons to get guns.

I saw my first cybertruck this morning. My darlings, I laughed so hard I almost choked on my own spit. How is it UGLIER in person? No matter what, at least I'm safe in the knowledge that I didn't shell out $80,000 to tell the world I'm a shitbag. My god.

If you don’t want to be described as a threat to US democracy, don’t attempt a coup, call for the termination of the Constitution, vow to be a dictator, and insist the law shouldn’t apply to you. Accurately describing all that as a threat to democracy isn’t doing anything wrong.

“It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single woman in possession of a good home, must be in want of a cat”

This is really important. Academic editors don’t have to let cruelty go through to authors. Which doesn’t mean limiting genuine informed criticism. But most of the stories you hear about horrible peer reviews should have been stopped.

hollywood take animation seriously, challenge impossible

I'm sorry, but if the billionaire wants a security perimeter greater than 500 yards at his own damn property, then he can pay for it. He was never in any danger and it is not the obligation of taxpayers to protect a private golf club from reputational damage due to GOP gun policies.

At least Lovecraft protagonists get to go mad from forbidden knowledge, I feel like I'm going nuts while consistently knowing less

Meanwhile. Elsewhen...

It has come to my attention that not enough writers know about the Submissions Grinder. It's an EXTREMELY helpful site that you can find here: thegrinder.diabolicalplots.com

Remember that Columbo where he just comes in and reads a book to his sick grandson? That one was weird.
