Elon Musk going from Epstein Island to being accused by multiple employees of sexual abuse and harassment to operating one of the largest CSAM distribution sites on the internet, all while fathering fourteen children from various women and being publicly disowned by his only daughter

Can you hear that? That ghastly wheeze? That wet thump? That can only be the sound of LAST RITES and ICHOR-DROWNED being added to the Rowan Rook & Decard website shop for digital purchase!

Great point from @virginiaheffernan.bsky.social: The spectacle of ordinary people in Minneapolis courageously protecting each other from the ICE invasion is itself inspiring and contrasts powerfully with Miller/Bovino totalitarian cruelties. Check out this exchange: newrepublic.com/article/2058...

YOU - What am I doing? SHIVERS - Looking up at the sky, cold water dripping from your hair. YOU - What do I see? SHIVERS - Grey sky like great battleships, clouds colliding with one another. Rain falls down on the world.

Hookland is an odd county. Nowhere else in England has a tourist board happy to promote its haunted shoreline, boast of it including a record number of haunted light houses. A civic pride in phantoms is not the standard approach to encouraging day-trippers. – George Kindred

the first best Senate ask is to split the DHS funding from the rest of the minibus. It wrongfoots Republicans, it unites the D caucus, and it becomes more compelling rather than less compelling the longer Rs resist it. plus all the minibus components were negotiated separately anyway

For we have saints for everything. Saints of bells, saints of rope, saints to pray to in hope of not ending up at the end of a rope. We have dog-headed saints, saints who can call on an army of otters, saints who can talk to eels. When the saints march, they are an army of the strange. – Dr. M. Benn

donald trump and his fascist agenda is a political loser, and the correct response is full opposition and defiance, example 1000000

Dammit, that’s a really good cock.

One of my fav genre of posts is "I dreamed about this kind of food/dish and so I tried to make it." i.e: king's hand or "the big mamdani"

It was cold and snowy but I got the opportunity to make it known in the public square that God curses what ICE is doing

signs left at alex pretti’s memorial in minneapolis: “i love you so much / i’ll miss you forever” photo with a friend, “i would have done the same. RIP alex,” a stethoscope and “we’ll take it from here, alex” and a tshirt for the minnesota nurses association

"ICE, CBP, and Border Patrol have proven themselves incapable of obeying the law, let alone enforcing it for others; unable to self-soothe, let alone keep the peace. ICE and its ilk are ... a problem with only one solution. They are malignant, they are worthless, and they should not exist."

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.

Living on Hookland's coast it isn't just salt hags who know the power of the ocean. Everyone understands the King-Under-the-Sea has an insatiable appetite for land, that his tide teeth will always bite. No wall, however high, will keep him out forever. – #EmilyCBanting, 1981

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

Knuckle tats that say ELBE RETH

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

I was today years old when I found out that the Defiant CD player is a thing that exists

So Disney deleted their post on Threads asking users to post Disney quotes that show how their feeling - I suspect this is because it didn't quite go as they expected but the internet is forever so, for your delectation and delight...

I just discovered this album: In the Forest Singing Sorrowless by Joy Shannon, featuring Ruth Tolkien and members of Heilung and Osi and the Jupiter. It's Tolkien songs set to harp music. Excellent music to do my daily Middle-earth Hexcrawl writing project to.

This thread is already amazing and @sharonk.bsky.social is still going.

it is -10 here today. I was supposed to go do a volunteer shift standing outside loading groceries into people’s cars to deliver to families stuck at home. just got a call not to come in because they have too many volunteers already. if you were wondering if the cold would stop us.

INLAND EMPIRE - The encroaching doom is golden red. It is inside you, but also outside, on the horizon, by the water's edge. Innermost but yet to happen -- things make sense from that angle... INLAND EMPIRE - You're *Tequila Sunset*. You have been Tequila Sunset for a long time now.

Look at this, just look at it. There was a time that we as a species couldn't even make fire and now we can see the goddamn mountains on Pluto.

Incredibly emotional to hear my poem has been turned into a song of resistance and is being sung in Minneapolis right now. Please do not give up.

The killer of Renee Good proudly RECORDED THE KILLING. Body cams won't stop this. And "training" just gives ICE more money to train its agents to keep doing what they're doing. Abolish ICE. Defund it entirely. If @booker.senate.gov is your senator, please call him what you think. (202) 224-3224

The Long Neolithic is continuity with our fundamental nature. To step into a stone circles is to know we are pattern makers, season markers. It is a knowing we have always looked to sky, always had our rituals and mysteries of death. We are lithic. – Dr. K. Brophy #StandingStoneSunday

Man, Du Bois had some bangers, but for me, it doesn't get much better than his scathing indictment of the "Christianity" of the United States. Certainly this was all true of the nation in his lifetime. But in my lifetime, his criticisms have never felt so true of the nation right now.

my name is Jax I write the fae which were released seven years today I wrote the kiths so take a look it saved my life I love this book

Sometimes you send something you found online to a friend because you want to brighten their day, and sometimes you send something you found online to a friend with the precise attitude and bearing of a cat very carefully lining up their paw with the back of another cat's head.

YOU - Where the hood, where the hood, where the hood at? SHIVERS - HAVE A BROTHER IN THE CUT. WHERE THE WOOD AT?

Gavin Newsom has never had a homeless, a working unhoused, or an affordable housing advocate on his podcast despite governing California. So yeah I think it’s weird that he’s entertained & platformed multiple fascists while grinning, nodding & relenting to their easily defeatable talking points.
