It’s weird Sean Bean never gets Oscar noms, he should’ve been clutching one as he went over the Falls of Rauros

If precedent doesn’t determine cases there is no reason for higher courts to exist. You’re essentially appealing your case to the king.

My good friend Barbara has been disappeared by ICE. Looking for any contacts or resources to help find her. @laist.com @latimes.com @lataco.bsky.social @aclusocal.bsky.social @nlg.la

ICE must be destroyed

The mass walkout at the UN was nice and all but this is the continued reality

Assuming we can, there’s simply no way to fully recover from this without a lot of powerful people going to jail.

“Today President Donald J Trump signed a comprehensive strategy to investigate, disrupt and dismantle all stages of domestic terrorism. Common threads … include hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family, religion and morality. Priorities include … civil disorder.”

There’s a looming showdown over the budget so the president is threatening to lay off his White House staff, because he thinks the country is a business and thinks firing people will get His Country The Business into the black for the 4th quarter.

dr. fuckenstein’s monster would prolly just be his hog huh

El problema es el capitalismo

So Ebay Ireland has suspended our store, deleted all the listings which took us hours to photograph and post. We appealed, but to no avail. The shop is permanently banned from ebay Ireland and they will not give us a reason why. They will also keep all the money from the sales for 120 days or more

Look at what Prometheus took from us

When I was little I thought edgy indie comics like Dark Horse confused me because they were too adult, but rereading them now I can see it was because characters regularly change names and faces without warning

I mean this is basically what they did to him for the last ten years of his life

Despite what you may be hearing, you actually never have to talk to a Trump voter ever again.

Trump support accounted for roughly 30% of eligible voters. We don’t need to convince those people of anything, we need to dismantle the mechanisms of power that allowed one third of the country to plunge us into Nazism.

Remember both that this was always the goal and that this plan was enacted by the Democratic Party because Israeli propaganda was being dismantled as quickly as they were putting it out.

Critics of this reporting have gone from “you guys need to read 😏😏, it doesn’t label every trans person terrorist” to acknowledging that “it creates the machinery” for crackdowns and surveillance, which is the exact same thing. It’s the Patriot Act, it givens them the *ability* to label “terrorists”

Gary Busey has the only skull you could pick out of a lineup

I used to think I hadn’t seen any movie when I was too impressionable but now I realize that’s how I’ve seen every movie

Can't believe there are still people on this app campaigning for these idiots

random thought ive had for weeks: a version of “Virtua Cop” where Buffalo Springfield gently warns you when bad guys appear

I get the sentiment but they’re doing a hysterical 1st amendment crackdown as we speak to try and stop us from calling them hypocrites, which is the best sign to keep doing it. The reason to continue pointing out every lie and hypocrisy in a fascist state is so that *we* never get numb to it.

Even when I watch true crime documentaries about the most despicable people alive I’m still shouting “CLAM UP MAN WHAT ARE YOU DOING?” during the interrogation scenes

Autocorrect is literally the only reason I’ve ever made certain spelling or grammar mistakes, let’s give this technology trillions of dollars and all the earth’s water

You want to be alive, but they want you dead. We’re a new, well, funded democratic group that thinks you can meet them halfway.

This has been the strategy since Reagan, which is why the modern Democratic Party is insanely right wing and why the modern Conservative Party are full-blown Nazis.

Hey man nice black hoodie/news boy cap combo. I know a The Dark Knight blu-ray steelbook hates to see you comin

I love how this frames it as though the president didn’t arbitrarily start trade wars with the entire world under the assumption that the world needs a single thing from America.

They’re still trying to deport Mahmoud Khalil literally because they don’t like what he said. The police state has BEEN here! We are in it already! It’s just getting harder for certain people to ignore!

ICE has conducted months of extrajudicial kidnappings with masked officers and unmarked cars frequently based on information from snitches. It seems you are already normalized to the secret police state.

The “PEOPLE are losing their JOBS!” crowd are suddenly very loud after saying absolutely nothing about all the extrajudicial kidnappings. I wonder why.

They are reacting with the same level of outrage they did when Bud Light did a commercial with Dylan Mulvaney. Kid Rock shot a bunch of bottles with a machine gun, Ted Cruz & Marsha Blackburn launched a senate investigation, etc. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bud_Lig...

With respect, the masked police kidnapping anyone they want and taking them to secret locations are the new secret police.

i dont think multiple democratic governors should have lowered flags to half mast for a racist who said gay people should be stoned. i dont think a democratic governor should have called for continuing "the work" of a man who said mlk was a myth and evil. is that too much to ask? ffs.

Reagan got shot at fucking twice

The 16-year-old who shot two students in a Colorado high school on the same day Charlie Kirk was killed was a virulent white supremacist and antisemite www.denverpost.com/2025/09/11/e...

we passed this point long ago. the Christchurch shooter murdered more than 50 people for the memes. if you don't realize that was part of the point for him you don't understand this stuff.

I know we’re all outraged about the flags at half mast but ironically it seems some of you have forgotten about 9/11

Black trauma is the US norm and after today it’s more than obvious that no one but us sees it, hears it, or cares about it or us regardless of how far and how regularly we fight against it. The US has effectively told us that they’re done and we do not matter. But they’ve always told us that, tbh.

Ok but this is the really serious question, do we have to stop doing the face-shrinking meme?

I try not to celebrate death and I’m cautious around those who do without having actually been in its presence, but either way what you feel is none of my business. I’m not the arbiter of morality. What’s more important is to focus on who littleface was, the agenda he advanced, & how he advanced it.

Charlie Kirk got famous by going on Fox and complaining about conservative censorship on college campuses despite never attending college. He saw the opportunity to make millions by terrorizing people from afar for the advancement of a white supremacist ethnostate and now we’re living in it.

There’s an ongoing school shooting and congress holds a moment of silence for littleface
