ice has been targeting my neighborhood this week, and this pregnant working mom had her car hit and totaled in a hit and run during a high speed chase she wasn't even involved in. she's raising money for a new vehicle so she can travel to clients and care for her child

there’s so much in this opinion it’s natural to focus on the particularly brutal elements that did happen but I keep personally remembering that the feds were authorized to kill Chicagoans if they felt they had to for a safe exit.

What's really starting to come into view is that "online tankies" aren't even really that radically communist, it's just people with anti-American sentiments who are also culturally-4chan. If you press them, they're absolutely racist, misogynistic, transphobic, and homophobic. That's their culture.

I absolutely hate how even drinking a soylent sometimes isn’t enough to have my meds not make me feel like absolute hammered shit in the mornings. Like, you pretty much have to eat a full meal to counteract the effect and we don’t have the ability to cook properly in our new place yet.

WHOA. The FBI was/is spying on a Signal chat for a New York immigration court watch group, claiming they were “anarchist violent extremist actors.” Your reminder that the government is watching and don’t say anything in a big group chat you wouldn’t say on TV. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

JUST IN: A federal judge says one of the Venezuelan men — illegally deported to El Salvador in March before he was swapped back to Venezuela in a prisoner exchange — is now missing, possibly a victim of the violence he was seeking asylum from. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

America 2025.

we have PrEP because of these monkey studies. animal welfare in medical research is extremely strictly limited and regulated to ensure ethical use. there is no replacement for these animal models in biomedical research.

NEW: Churches in Charlotte are hosting trainings on how to response to ICE agents — with *hundreds* filling pews. At one training, a child led those gathered in "This Little Light of Mine" — but changed the words to “All around Border Patrol, I’m gonna let it shine" religionnews.com/2025/11/20/a...

“In another sequence, an agent rolled down a window, pointed a handgun, and said ‘bang bang’ before sneering, ‘You’re dead, liberal.’” www.thedailybeast.com/judge-shreds...

i promise i'll reflect it right back at you

If you’re using leftist politics as a cudgel to beat people with you are harming the cause and I think you should be driven into the goddamn sea at the tip of a bayonet.

I guess I technically believe in ghosts in that I have experience of human souls who stuck around after death, but I don’t think it’s particularly common or that people haunt places or do so because they have unfinished business. It’s just a thing that sometimes happens when you die.

It's extremely bad for left politics that we are apparently incapable of doing the internal hygiene required to keep these vicious bullies from claiming the mantle of "leftism"

My god. After 4 days in ICE custody, they found the man in a shower stall hog-tied, with a sheet around his neck. The medical examiner claimed there were other instances of this. Which means this is not an isolated case. Trump's Lynching America

a world without trans people has never existed and never will

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

The Arab-Americans on TikTok have discovered the downside of New York electing 34 year old Zohran Mamdani.

You don’t get to treat people like this because they say something insufficiently leftist. Fuck anyone who decides they get to enjoy a little transphobia or treat gender as a reward for being politically on side.

Before she died, my great-grandmother told me what her mother told her as swastika uniforms took her to the gas chambers: "Remember you're a Jew; I'll return soon." She never saw her again. A new Coast Guard policy says that same swastika isn't hate but "potentially divisive." Never again is now.

Ellis repeatedly accuses multiple CBP and ICE officials of lying (under oath) and says their "widespread misrepresentations call into question everything" they "say they are doing in their characterization of what is happening." She broadly discredits their testimony as objectively false.

NEW: Mississippians still have not received their full SNAP benefits more than a week after the government shutdown ended due to problems with a 40-year-old computer system running on COBOL. And there is no guarantee they'll get them before Thanksgiving—or even by December.

THREAD: Judge Ellis is the first federal judge to review extensive body cam video of DHS's actions in Chicago. She finds that DHS *repeatedly* misled the public and made claims that were disproven by agents' own videos. I'll go through some of the most egregious ones here.

Cw: suicide This article is devastating. Earlier this month, a 15-year-old died by suicide the day after posting about a substitute teacher insisting on misgendering him. Suicide can have many contributing factors. His family is speaking out about bullying and misgendering as two.

Using my voice as a creator to put out a small PSA on how to disable the new feedback feature on our favorite overly-nosey payment processor. Reminder to never comm details on payment websites, and to never directly link your payment pages to your NSFW work.

Literally none of the economic issues we face are due to undocumented immigrants. Meanwhile, this is verbatim Nazi propaganda being pushed out by the US Dept of Homeland Security. The Trump regime is a fully fascist regime. They're not attempting to hide it in any capacity. This is who they are.

poem that my dear friend @arcanumb.bsky.social wrote & published this week ❤️‍🔥🏳️‍⚧️

Absolutely incredible; after shooting Marimar Martinez 5 times and arresting her on claims that she rammed them and pulled a gun, prosecutors have now moved to dismiss ALL criminal charges against her and her codefendant.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at the University of Exeter have found that getting vaccinated against shingles- a painful and debilitating condition that can flare up years after infection from varicella zoster virus- not only LOWERS the risk of infection, but can also PROTECT against Alzheimer’s disease!

Labour truly are the party US leftists think the Democrats are.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

[wealthy hatemonger gunned down mid-slur] don’t you dare disrespect the dead [the president calls for electeds to be lynched] well that’s all right. that’s just free speech. love it or leave it

The faerie folk of Ireland, taking mortal offence: ‘What the fuck is an “SJM book”?

In 2028 I will vote for whoever will send Stephen Miller to The Hague.

Health experts are alarmed as Republicans degrade the country’s pivotal HIV programs — and break promises made during Trump’s first term. If the government doesn't reverse course, experts see a much darker and deadlier period of the HIV epidemic back on the horizon. Read more from my latest story:

Saw this on the other site and wanted to share it here. Furry artist ardwoof has been detained by ice for the last few weeks. here is the GoFundMe link their family/friends have set up to help with their legal fees: www.gofundme.com/f/help-johan...

Tomorrow is Trans Day of Remembrance. Every year on TDOR, trans people lost to homicide and violence are remembered at memorials around the country and around the world. But the story of Sam Nordquist, a young trans man who was tortured and killed this year, has haunted me like no other.

CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

Border Patrol is monitoring US drivers and detaining those with 'suspicious' travel patterns

Fish have committed credit card fraud

SCOOP — A former staffer for Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ), Natalie Green, 26, was charged today for falsely reporting she was attacked by 3 men who wrote "TRUMP WHORE" on her stomach bc of her job. It was staged by her + a friend. Van Drew isn't named in the complaint but I've confirmed w/ his office.

Heartbreaking: the person you campaigned and championed to get elected does exactly what he said he would do

New York Daily News: "An NYPD sergeant was facing federal charges Tuesday for impersonating an ICE agent and demanding a woman he met online report with her family to an immigration facility — a hoax he carried out in revenge for her rebuffing his advances, according to police sources."

one thing i want to emphasize is these "illiberal" and "postliberal" authoritarians are just thieves and crooks! trump is thief. orban is a thief. putin is the biggest thief of them all.

There's a pretty big truth here and that is that AI is being pushed BECAUSE they want to disrupt the well-being of artists. Capitalists hate what they can't exploit and artists with integrity piss them off (especially when the arts are filled with women, queers and folks of every color).

I'm watching videos about Pride events in various German towns and every pup in Leipzig is looking at this twink like he's a squirrel that just fell into a doggy daycare
