I am reminded that I meant to share this the other day www.forbes.com/sites/thomas...

Arresting journalists without a judicial arrest warrant. Are we past the "strongly worded letter" point yet?

Seeing some replies about how the arrests of Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are distractions, but targeting journalists is straight out of the fascism playbook. It's not to distract from other issues -- the regime wants to chill critical coverage because they know they're unpopular.

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.

I'm going to get a lot of use out of this, I'm afraid.

Some men really do think open misogynists are good and trustworthy and honest, because they say what those men are thinking and do what those men rwant to do. They just can't imagine that an open misogynist is also a liar, a cheat, and a hypocrite like the "normie" politicians are.

ICE activity has been ramping up in Chicagoland again this month. The city's northwest side rapid respsonse team is reporting 2 people taken this morning from Chicago's heavily Latine Humboldt Park neighborhood, and advising that agents may still be in the area.

Men love too ignore misogyny as long as the misogynist is "on our side" www.news5cleveland.com/news/local-n...

Precisely. CS and OC are not acids and won't be neutralized by antacid. But also? If you spill actual acid on your skin, you don't neutralize it. You dilute it with water. Neutralization reactions are exothermic. You don't want thermal burns in addition to chemical burns.

When people "wHaT AbOuT cHiCaGo", I point to three events on the crime rate timeline: Overturning of the city's gun ban Closing half the schools Closing half the mental health clinics It's amazing how it lines up

When I say this agency [ICE and CBP] CAN’T be reformed this is why.

To share with that one aunt who is super racist but preys for the furbabies

Thank you @atrupar.com ! Hope he’s in for a lovely surprise from the previous stale GoFundMe. ;) And if I could draw worth a damn, I’d be doing a comic book with this hero shot on the cover.

I'm not asking for reform because arguing on paper about what ICE has to do is not the fucking point, because--and this is important--they are not following the fucking paper. I said "abolish" and I did not stutter, because if fascists goons can take over every four years, there is no paper reform.

“Superintendent Evans said that state investigators had a signed warrant to access the shooting scene, but they were denied access by federal officials.” State & local are investigating; Trump admin is actively obstructing justice. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/us...

he literally said “they’re just following orders” you can’t make it up

The conservative intelligentsia and media-industrial complex has been publicly masturbating about getting to kill people for years now, they are orders of magnitude worse than even the MAGA base. Everybody knows this, it's just politically incorrect to say it.

Every one of those democratic representatives has blood on their hands and needs to be reminded of it. Go to their local offices and show them who they killed today.

People get their news via social media these days. Newspapers always have a comics section, because if there's not something good to look forward to, people stop showing up to learn about the bad. So post your art &don't feel bad about it. We're the cheese wrapped around these hard to swallow pills.

Hey! Do you work for U-Haul? Can you tell me who rented that vehicle? Your identity will remain anonymous. I just need a picture of the screen rental information. Email in bio.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

It is past time to shut down the major commercial airports like we did during the travel ban. Air travel has a massive economic impact. Losing money is the only thing they understand.

no, its time to abolish all versions of ICE

It's time to abolish Trump’s ICE.

Democrats can and must make it clear there will be trials and anyone even somewhat associated with ICE will face them. Maybe give a quit-your-job deadline on appeasement and give people 72 hours. I don't know. But currently the plan is to let them murder us in the street and get away with it.

Ordered mine!

These are the US House Rep Dems (date & if up for re election 26) who voted to fund DHS: Henry Cuellar TX Yes Jared Golden ME Retiring Marie Gluesenkamp Perez WA Yes Laura Gillen NY Yes Don Davis NC Yes Tom Suozzi NY Yes Vicente Gonzalez TX Yes Primary anyone?

state-sponsored child trafficking

Almost 30 years ago, peaceful protesters in a lumber town in California had their eyes swabbed with q-tips dipped in pepper spay. A court eventually determined their 4th amendment rights were violated. This is signifcantly more severe than that. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lundber...

Wow I chose a terrible time to take a shower

Chuckling at the people in the U.S. who consistently shit on people who live in "red" states... Well according to others in the world, the entire US is now a "red" state. Not so easy to overthrow authoritarians, is it?

Have seen many variations of this & broadly agree—but the part that struck me in the moment wasn’t “this is a microcosm for how America sucks” — it was “this is a microcosm for trying to behave democratically & respectfully of one another in a complex, evolving situation with things we can't know.”

I have had some adventures and seen some wild things on Greyhound and Amtrak buses over the years, but hoo boy that Best Bus incident beats my stories by a mile. I'm willing to bet that company is not unionized.

sorry my mentions are a wreck now—will be sending photos and videos to the company tomorrow and will update if I learn anything about how this happened or what they did about it but uh, thanks for tuning in for this episode of “musicology duck gets briefly kidnapped”

This is so horrifically cruel.

"Biopic" rhymes with "myopic" and I refuse to believe otherwise.

Can we stop with this? There are *massive* operations in Florida right now. Mostly on highways. The roundups are relentless and people are terrified to leave their homes. Florida Highway Patrol and the Sheriff’s depts all work for ICE

So incredibly childish

Heck, I'm in.

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 26-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 2.4 MILLION people in Sweden found found NO EVIDENCE to support a causal link between acetaminophen (the API in Tylenol) use during pregnancy and increased risk of autism, ADHD, OR intellectual disability in children.

His plate carrier was empty. All carrier, no plate. Plate carriers aren't stab armor even WITH the plates in. 100% bull.

If you're keeping updated, you might need this reminder:

So, far better to make sure people know actual facts about things like CS (because a lot of bad information spreads) and not believe that "nerve gas" is being used. This is categorically false and leads to even worse bad medical misinformation spreading. That's all. Fuck ICE. Prosecute them all.
