There's a certain type of pundit who seems to think that basically everything you ever express or do, particularly if you're in a minority group, should be done as if you are being observed by a swing voter in Montgomery County, PA.

There's not a single logical reason left to be a conservative in 2025. Not one.

Every day, Trump wakes up and thinks “what product should I make arbitrarily more expensive today?” Truck tariffs means drivers pay billions more for vehicles, companies/consumers pay more for shipping, & the benefits to truckmakers get outweighed by costs to other manufacturers

Madison Carstens, a transgender woman from Seattle, was attacked by six men in a transphobic hate crime on Sept 2. She suffered a ruptured eardrum - that may have permanently damaged her hearing - and a severe concussion that will keep her out of work for weeks or months. Do your thing, fam. (1/2)

And Batgirl for Batman day!😉🦇 #batgirl #cassandracain #spiritworld #dc #batmanday

I cannot emphasize this enough: The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent. They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so. Doomers are not realists.

"He's young. He'll probably walk again." Yeah, people forget just how hardcore this was for 1986. We'd NEVER seen Batman rough up criminals this much before The Dark Knight. Now he does it every Tuesday. That's kind of lost when you reread TDKR now. The novelty is gone. #BatmanDay #ComicSky

Chukwudi Iwuji. Met him at a con where I told him I wrote one of the promos he did for Peacemaker. He told me that was his favorite one. www.facebook.com/watch/?v=281...

Batman doesn’t know who Chuck Quizmo is. #AskBatman

One of the key ways you refuse to comply with fascism is by becoming even louder and more fearless in supporting vulnerable people. You SHOW that you are unwilling to throw the "undesirables" under the bus if only for self-preservation because under fascism you will also become undesirable one day.

BREAKING: Ted Cruz gets something right

Gentle reminder that in the late '50s, the U.S. government did not censor comics. Comics companies censored themselves. Not sure why that crossed my mind today but there it is...

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

genuinely crazy that this is happening on behalf of charlie kirk of all people

“My first instinct is to laugh, but I remember that American history is filled with men and women who were as lethal as they are ridiculous,” Ta-Nehisi Coates.

“what of the writers, the thinkers, and the pundits who cannot separate the great crime of Kirk’s death from the malignancy of his public life? Can they truly be so ignorant to the words of a man they have so rushed to memorialize?” - Ta-Nehisi Coates archive.ph/2025.09.16-2...

Ta-Nehisi Coates on Charlie Kirk and the pundits and politicians sanitizing his legacy.

BE LOUD AND PROUD ABOUT YOUR TRANS PEEPS! Many of the most wonderful, gracious, kindest people in my life are my trans friends. Trans folks deserve our support and protection. Let these bigots know there's more of us than there are of them.

Hey you. Vote YES on Prop 50. … and push for the release of the full unredacted Epstein files!

I wrote my own Charlie Kirk obituary, and about valuing truth over manners: www.thenation.com/article/poli...

Was reminded that this edit of Pimp My Ride that is notihng by all of Xzibit's weird dynamic MTV-edited entrances exists.

We don't yet have any idea what the ideology of the Kirk shooter was. But we do know that the Denver school shooter was a far-right white supremacist. www.denverpost.com/2025/09/11/e...

Unsurprisingly, the thing Noah Smith is saying is obviously not true. Look at reports on the reaction to the assassination of MLK... "glee, satisfaction and weeping in equal parts" (www.nytimes.com/2018/04/02/r...) as the Smithsonian notes "some actually celebrated" (nmaahc.si.edu/explore/stor...).

so it sounds like trump is not in fact sending national guard troops to chicago. the sweeping and unified opposition of state and city leaders appears to have deterred him. blockclubchicago.org/2025/09/10/n...

@discord.com Please help me. Someone has hacked my account and is now demanding I pay a ransom for it.

Federal immigration agents were seemingly forced to retreat from a roofing job site in Rochester, NY, after being confronted by more than 100 protesters The workers stayed on the roof and agents drove away in a Border Patrol SUV on four flat tires, which had been slashed

"Back in my day, fans didn't outrage until beloved characters were brought back to life a few years later. They stayed dead. You snowflakes ruin everything!" Spock: "Hold my tricorder." Sherlock Holmes: "Hold my cocaine."

The DOJ is lying through its teeth about 100s of Guatemalan kids it snatched out of foster care and tried to rendition over the weekend. Thanks to Judge Sparkle Sooknanan, they didn't get away with it. Something to remember when ppl say the law doesn't matter. www.publicnotice.co/p/sooknanan-...

1/31 I believe there is growing evidence, that the White House is covering up the fact that Donald Trump has been dealing with TIA strokes. AND that he likely had a more significant ischemic stroke this week.

As rumors fly that Trump has suffered a stroke, I was reminded that the motherfucker has always been a loathsome piece of shit. To make more money with a different tenant, Trump threw 74-year-old widow, Mary Filan, who had recently suffered a stroke out of her Queens apartment.

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.” Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment. No questions asked. No proof required. Pass it on.

"Eh, uh. So that was Gandalfini the Grey. That guy ain't me. I'm Gandalfini the White, and I come to you now at the turn of the fucking tide."

Never, ever, ever, ever vote for a Republican for any office under any circumstances.

okay gotta go to bed so i can get up and WRITE WRITE WRITE all day tomorrow, but one more thought... The #ZcavengerHunt was a concrete reminder of how BIG we are. Trump is so weak. Just the weakest loser on the planet. We are ENORMOUS. ❤️

Mamdani found a way to get people to Pokemon Go to the polls.

The first-in-the nation LGBTQ+ legal hotline is being birthed right here in Illinois, thanks to Governor and possible 2028 Democratic Presidential candidate JB Pritzker. The LGBTQ+ legal hotline is named Illinois Pride Connect, the statewide version of The Trevor Project.🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

20 Aug 25 -- Bluesky has suspended multiple trans users for anti-J.K. Rowling posts even when they didn't mention threats or violence. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social

need people to understand that accepting or conceding that he has the authority to do these things is tantamount to giving him the authority, and so your preemptive dooming is actively counterproductive
