ice is short for i suck

athlete: so if triathlon is running, biking and swimming, that must mean biathlon is running and biking? coach: [taking out skis and a gun] haha yeah you’d think so

People booing JD Vance at the opening ceremonies in Italy is the first gold medal of the Olympics.

Never want to hear another tired quip about France being too cowardly to stand up to the Nazis.

I guess in theory a cis man could be good at basketball. I'm just saying, anyone who doesn't menstruate has missed out on a LOT of practice throwing things across a bathroom into a tiny garbage bin...

Respond: Crisis Translation is a wonderful organization and stands firmly against ICE. Please feel free to share widely - to those who may require translation services and/or to those who could volunteer their language skills.

"You can't party with Jared Kushner - that would be like partying with a haunted clock." -David Bell of @gamefullyun.bsky.social delivering, dare I say, one of the best disses in Behind the Bastards history? (with @iwriteok.bsky.social )

"Everybody wants to know" -Melania trailer Meanwhile, it's literally if the "Nobody:" meme were a movie.

Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS. Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies. AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS. Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

I understand the impulse, but does anyone else find all the "Pretti Good" puns a bit disrespectful? Yes, it is quite a coincidence that those were their names. But the decision to use that for wordplay, however well intentioned, doesn't quite sit right with me...

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

Chanting "Say his name! Alex Pretti!"

This is courage. Looking a masked, government fascist dead in the eye, face to face, knowing full well that your life is on the line. If elected officials had 1/10th of Alex Pretti's resolve, we would have far fewer troubles.

/3 In this moment of horror, look at the people of MN. They’re not an army. Few are trained for urban combat, through there are many veterans. They are young and old and rich and poor. They are standing up at great personal danger, defying a despicable Gestapo government and its vile apologists.

Broke: Canada is the 51st State Bespoke: Canada is the 28th member state

The seven Democrats who voted for the bill to fund DHS 64.4 Million dollars are: Henry Cuellar (Texas) Vicente Gonzalez (Texas) Jared Golden (Maine) Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Washington) Don Davis (North Carolina) Laura Gillen (New York) Tom Suozzi (New York) Time to vote them out of office.

If Democrats were a real opposition party, they'd be putting their lives on the line to get Liam home by bedtime tonight, but instead they're discussing how much funding for better cameras Trump's SS should get. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

if you don’t think you can campaign on abolishing this agency and prosecuting the people involved - if you don’t think you’re able to make that case using this video and other like it - get the fuck out of politics

Just got back from my time traveling dinosaur safari and you won’t believe how many butterflies I stepped on! Now to take a big sip of water and check on President Harris’s trip to Davos

“We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done,” journalist Garrett Graff wrote: “A superpower is [dying by] suicide because the [Republican] Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King. This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.”

saw a post a few days back comparing schumer to a fire extinguisher you bought 25 years ago only to recently discover that it doesn't work when finally needed- and it's about the best anaology for him i've ever seen

Remember: The real freeloaders in this country are the rich — not the poor or immigrants or any other group of people vilified as scapegoats. The richest 1% evade $163 billion in taxes every year. The United States literally has yacht and private jet tax deductions. Hello?

AOC: “I understand that VP Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, & I do not — That is a fundamental difference between VP Vance & I — I do not believe the American people should be assassinated in the street”

in these moments, in my view, it is a political and spiritual DUTY for my outrage and anger to be as fresh as if I'd never heard how they shot Fred Hampton in his bed. As fresh as if I didn't know Bobby Hutton was surrendering when they shot him. 1/2

Tim Walz: "What we're seeing is the consequences of governance designed to generate fear, headlines, and conflict. It's governing by reality today and today that recklessness cost someone their life. I've reached out to DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and I'm waiting to hear back ... I'm angry."

Could an empire in decline do THIS? *launches deeply unpopular invasion cementing status as lunatic-led pariah state, its not clear what kind of move i was trying to do*

"Some people name their cars, or their guitars. Some things are too fragile to name. Some things are made for the spotlight Some live at the edge of the frame. Just a few days above surface. A lifetime below. Rocks in my pockets when I go." -Haunting new @themountaingoats.bsky.social lines ❤️

As a Canadian, my main question for Mark Cuban is: wait, Americans don't see their PCP before they see a specialist????

It really is the purest encapsulation of this movement in terms of both its leaders and adherents: an old angry guy who can’t do pull ups making everyone watch him try to do pull ups

Rickety bridge @ Tommy Thompson Park (Leslie Spit)

I wonder what America would look like if both parties had possessed the moral integrity to take a hard line against segregation and antiblackness and left disgruntled racists politically homeless instead of integrating hatred into a party platform.

If the NYT told the story of the homeless teenager exploited by Matt Gaetz with even half as much empathy as it tells the story of Olivia Nuzzi, it would be in danger of committing journalism.

Love when all these Lauren Boebert types built their whole public image around the sentiment of "Fuck you, I'm a renegade, I live for doing the opposite of whatever The Authorities tell me". And now Trump tries to be The Authority and it just splashes right back in his pedophilic face. 👩‍🍳😙

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Toronto streetcar's digital display still says "Let's Go Blue Jays". Nobody tell it. Let it dream 💔

JUST IN: Mamdani, a democratic socialist and state assemblymember, will make history as the first Muslim and South Asian person — as well as the youngest in over a century — to serve as New York City mayor.
