It’s not so much the ICE disagreeing with me part as the ICE stealing children from their parents in the middle of the night and disappearing them part that makes them Nazis.

I have no idea who shot at the ICE facility or why, & hard to trust this FBI director. Murder is always inexcusable. Now, the idea that people are mad at ICE because of ‘Democrats’ rhetoric’ & not because of daily videos of masked ICE agents assaulting people, including citizens, is for the birds.

"Civilians are impersonating state agents to assault vulnerable women and victims because state agents under every presidential administration have ALWAYS been able to do this." A L W A Y S

Meanwhile over on X (Twitter) the bots are trying to spin a narrative that Democrats have completely misunderstood Charlie Kirk. Weird that they are all using the exact same words to do so. #CharlieKirkWasVile

This is what they are trying to do with Charlie Kirk, btw. Straight out of the Nazi playbook. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horst_W...

Libby is a fantastic source of borrowed books and audiobooks! Connect your card and get borrowing!!

I had Mumps as a child because my parents skipped the vaccine and faked my records. It was confusing and scary, and I still get weird twinges in my jaw 35 years on. Our society is atrocious at recognizing threats if they're layered like this. School shootings, car deaths, illness. It must stop.

It’s like Ezra Klein saw how terrible Nate Silver has become and thought, hold my beer, stats boy.

If we are listing our favorite Robert Redford movies it has to be this one for me:

OK I will say it. Unpopular opinion: I am so tired of this stupid cat story. I can't believe I'm seeing more people post about this cat that got hit by a car than any Epstein files or actual news story. I wish I could block it.

The one damaging the integrity of the Washington Post is the Washington Post. The call is coming from inside the house, by the home owner.

Right?!

This is similar to the myth that health conspiracism is driven by dissatisfaction with the American healthcare system. Countries with the best healthcare systems in the world also have very large anti-vaxx movements! In both cases the problem is more closely related to information environments.

"Bill Kristol quotes George Washington's condemnation of 18th century antisemitism to defend transgender people from scapegoating following the assassination of Charlie Kirk" is an actual sentence

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

The right is literally killing each other for not being homophobic or antisemitic ENOUGH, but these jokers are still out here complaining about the “intolerant left“ for POSTS

the shooter was just a cis dude but even if he was the most trans person to ever trans it wouldnt justify rounding up all the trans people for crimes they didnt commit, really wish people in positions of power would be saying this

It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

The Democratic Party's silence is deafening. Nothing but empty posturing while they let themselves get steam rolled. They're still clinging to their rulebook like it's a security blanket while their opponents burn down the house.

It's too long to completely screenshot, so I included the link. Deserving is fake and death is bad. www.tumblr.com/richard-leng...

I think about peeps wine on a near daily basis

the wsj coverage of the shooter might be one of the worst and most irresponsible handlings of a story i’ve witnessed in the last 10 years

🚨WSJ spreads anti-trans misinformation. Seems noteworthy. www.theverge.com/politics/777...

Matthew Dowd only stated what any breathing, able brained person already knew. Charlie Kirk peddled hate, racism, and sexism. @msnbc.com you made a mistake with this one. Your viewership is going to take a hit. As it should. Stand by your people. Defend their right to tell the truth. Do better.

We aren’t talking enough about how the ATF failed to recognize that the marking on a bullet was just a headstamp (basic ammo ID) not a “trans symbol,” that someone leaked that misinfo to right wing extremist Steven Crowder, and that the WSJ reprinted it as fact. Total clown shoes

I think now is as convenient a time as any to suggest that maybe, just maybe, media outlets should be hiring analysts who are actually versed in internet and gaming culture. 49% of American adults play video games. Most of us use the internet. Current writers are culturally illiterate. WSJ is proof.

once when the Wall Street Journal attributed made-up false quotes to me I replied at my blog and threatened to sue & they retracted. I was congratulated by an older scholar who said WSJ falsely accused him of being a Communist in the 50s and he could never get a retraction

Second place must go to my favorite holiday, the Ides of March! This is my fave from this year's, but I also encourage you to check out the Ides of March tag on my own tumblr. Great stuff. www.tumblr.com/darsynia/tag...

1/2 In case you were wondering why the incorrect rumor of “trans activist” and “fascist symbols” on ammo started, it’s because arrows and initials are common ways manufacturers stamp ammo. Including “TRN” the ironsight and a direction broad arrow:

Oh honey, those are ✨inside✨ thoughts.

I guess this has probably already gone viral somewhere but I am simply dying at this picture of a bear that looks like it hired a photographer to do a glamour shoot

Clair Obscur Expedition 33 developer Sandfall Interactive sent a congratulations note to Team Cherry on the successful launch of Hollow Knight: Silksong. Nice to see developers supporting each other!

It’s ok to put the phone down.

Have been tagged in to provide the reminder about traumatic video because of the Charlie Kirk shooting video going around! 1. Settings -> Content & Media, turn off "autoplay video" 2. Keep your device sound off while browsing so an accidental activation won't include the sound

DO NOT LOOK UP THE VIDEO. Do not share the video. Any of them. There's 'not safe for work,' 'not safe for life,' but this is 'not safe for sanity' from all I've heard about it.

Political violence is bad. It usually begets more political violence. Celebrating political violence is bad. It usually encourages more political violence, against various targets. Campus shootings are bad. They make everyone on campus less safe. It's bad that what I wrote here is controversial.

Political violence disproportionately hurts people with less power, not people with more power. Political violence will disproportionately hurt people of color and women and LGBTQ people. It’s not fair, but that’s the way it works. Celebrating political violence means at best indifference to that.
