It really can’t be set enough that the Trump admin, and particularly Miller, are just shooting people in the water and then saying they were drug dealers. That is what’s going on. Good arguments in favor of not charging the admin with murder under guise of authority don’t exist

Help I’m hungry but too sapped of energy to cook

I wrote about this in "The Unaccountability Machine" - when you describe leveraged buyouts to ordinary people, half of them say that it should be illegal and the other half are often convinced that it already is.

Taking YET ANOTHER SICK DAY. Cannot shake this bug 😭

I think the Trump admin assumed no one would try to find out who the people on the boats they blew up really were

Oh EA'S going to die die

Maybe the elected officials honking about the Post losing money should submit data on how much money their salaries have "made" for the government.

How much does the Coast Guard lose every year? Can't believe they're not running a profit yet. 🫠

Aha - so the non-gun dropping ICE agent saying “you wanna be next?” to the folks filming makes even more sense now

UPDATE: The man ICE violently arrested has been identified as Job Arias-Mendoza. Two weeks ago he published a video to his social media accounts of ICE handcuffing a man in front of a liquor store—it has more than 200,000 views on TikTok. streetcarsuburbs.news/arias-mendoz...

What neonatal Tylenol does to a motherfucker

Well don't I feel stupid

The Rocky Horror Picture Show opened on US screens 50 years ago today. Initially a major box office bomb, cult cinema outsiders and queer audiences quickly took up the film’s mantle and turned it into a unique and exciting way of engaging with the movies. Remember kids, don’t dream it—be it!!

COME AND SEE #noimnotahuman #ninah

Enrollment in Georgia’s Medicaid work requirement program has remained stubbornly low. Despite a quarter-million low-income Georgians being eligible, only about 9,000 residents were actively enrolled as of Aug. 31.

Nobody tell him about Dan Ackroyd lol

I was *obsessed* with the intonation pattern in Molly Grue's "How dare you come to me now?" from THE LAST UNICORN after I first saw it (I think I was in middle school). (And oh boy, does that scene hit different as an adult woman.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bo7m...

Gd my throat hurts so bad I really want a slurpee I wish there was someone to bring me one and just leave it safely on my doorstep 😭

Dr Ian Roberts was born in Brooklyn, NY. ICE took him and no one knows why. /

MY THROAT IS SO FUCKING SORE AHHHHH

your daily reminder that hope is a floatation device- grab it with both hands 🖤

Recent reporting alleges that civilian men are impersonating ICE agents to kidnap and sexually assault immigrant women, with cases in North Carolina and New York. Unmasking ICE agents is important, but it’s a Band-Aid on a broader, systemic crisis. Read @kylietcheung.bsky.social's full Op-Ed ⤵️

GOOD NEWS! For the first time ever, Huntington's disease has been successfully treated. A groundbreaking new miRNA treatment, AMT-130, slowed the progression of the disease by 75%. These results are likely to support the first approval of a genetic treatment for the rare neurodegenerative condition.

This is the man that ICE just detained. This isn't about catching criminals, it is about Ethnic cleansing www.iowapublicradio.org/news-from-np...

people who need alt text: thank you for trying! Please convey what is most important in the alt text! "Allies:" I know you just got shot in the face at a protest and you used alt text, but have you considered that nothing I ever do will be good enough and I need to yell at you as a proxy self?

I love how the description ends at skin color and hair and little about the injury itself, which is central to the image and post

"Your attempts to silence us have failed because we’re right and you’re wrong. We will not be silent. We said we would fight you in your court and we would win. Today, we have. If anyone on this planet is guilty of terrorism, it’s the British state. Free Palestine."

The fact that the UCP are going to stop tracking deaths of Albertans waiting for treatment, tells me that it's going to get worse I mean, why else would they stop counting 🤷🏼‍♂️ #ableg www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti...

From @marisakabas.bsky.social: ICE agents point guns at bystanders during violent arrest in Maryland “What’re you gonna do? Shoot me?” one witness yelled. “Go ahead. Shoot me.” www.thehandbasket.co/p/ice-agents...

What might not occur to you upon reading this headline is that, in other words, ICE is targeting gay men of color Every queer press org should be picking up this story

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE. If this GIF has ever brought you joy in the past, I humbly ask you to consider making a donation to the National MS Society. It would mean a lot to me and to those I know affected by the disease! Donate at blinkingguy.com

For anyone not in Alberta or not paying attention, girls playing sports in school now have to prove they were born female to play sports. And can be challenged by anyone at anytime and must prove they are female to keep playing. This doesn’t apply to boys. What a dystopian hellscape

Uhhh what the fuck?

lol if they wanted us to pay for their product they shouldn’t have turned it to absolute unusable shit first

Fuck austerity — and long live the workers. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

i really wish our law enforcement and media werent telegraphing to mass shooters that messages written on bullets will be breathlessly and uncritically publicized with no further examination

as someone who's been dealing with this for the last 10 years now, these community boxes suck and get broken into constantly, so enjoy that! LOL

"Bradley Lafortune, ED of Public Interest Alberta, says lowering the bar for teacher certification could decrease the quality of teaching in the province. He said deprofessionalizing teachers could be a move toward a more American system, where teachers are paid less." www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

WIRED spoke with more than 200 federal workers in dozens of federal agencies to learn what happened as the Department of Government Efficiency tore through their offices. This is the oral history of DOGE, as told by federal workers:

And remember, the reason he wanted separate vaccines wasn't due to any science, but because *he'd filed a patent application for a single measles vaccine*. It was just grifting.

What’s it like having someone who loves you enough to just drop everything to come be with you and make your life better and be happy to do it Everyone I’ve ever been in a relationship with has treated me like a pain in the ass at best. Makes me feel like I’m never allowed to need anything ever

I'm wishing @isobelcarr.com a peaceful transition from this world, and am in awe of the friends who are caring for her through this last phase of her life. Her GoFundMe is nearly met - gofund.me/514cc87e4 May we all have friends like this.

the fact that so many people frame autism as “a problem that needs to be solved” is a constant reminder that being “not normal” isn’t acceptable to a large amount of the world. it’s the same reason there’s a trans panic right now too. they think people are defective

It creeps me out how much the missus seems to be loving this and feeling it as her Princess of the Fascist Prom moment. She’s smiled so many times talking about her husband dying. Now she comes out to fireworks & applause…at a funeral…

lol this headline is such a vibe. i realized i'm not looking forward to anything anymore. nothing gives me anticipation or joy, only dread

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
