(while being killed) stay alert everyone this is just a trial balloon for them killing someone more important

I think the thing I like the most about Claire Valdez is that she not only takes bold stands in support of trans people, but that when people on the right try to use those positions to attack her, she's just like, "yes, that is correct."

Taking John Waters home to fuck and he's hesitating a reeaalll long time staring at my bookcase full of only Nickelodeon magazines

why bother watching Americans and Brits argue over who has the best food when I could simply watch two bald men fighting over a comb instead

i love you grain weevil

"There can’t be a so-called Third Reconstruction without there first being a first and final deconstruction of the entire U.S. polity in its current state." A new essay from climate justice leader Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright.

I really don't want to get into political stuff, but these are intensely political times: Dear fellow white people, don't stand up to an injustice done to another group because white people might be next. Stand up because it's an injustice. It's really not that complicated.

when we mourn le guin, we mourn one of our greatest writers & thinkers. but we also mourn one of our all-time greatest haters

kfc in my small town has started halving their chicken breasts and selling it as a 2-piece. Multiple people have brought this up to me in the past week. It is quite literally the talk of the town. Someone called into the radio station about it and said it should be burned down with the owner inside

grondo here accused worst caveman crime, he shame us before all ancestors: grug say grondo mix the berries. what say grondo grondo very lucky today he die free caveman. grondo love mix berries. grondo not live in a world where berries no mix. grondo guilty as snake

It’s pretty fucked up that they overdubbed Frakes playing trombone on Star Trek because if you imagine Riker as a character doing it really shitty it makes all those scenes much funnier

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for

"Why don't Americans-" The ruling class of America has intentionally disempowered its citizens spread across 3,000+ miles of land and then funded the police force as an occupying army that happily murders anyone who opposes them and imprisons whoever is left as slave laborers. So phone calls it is

Conservatism is wrong. All forms of it, all expressions of it. There is no healthy compromise with it. It is – inherently – a negative. Stop acting as if it is a reasonable, valuable belief system. It inherently devalues / alienates all deviant speech and ideology. It is anti-human.

For your consideration

reminds me of "HOBBY LOBBY'S ROBBY HOBBY: HAMMURABI"

(worf voice) ICE agents are worthless despicable people, who by their choice of career have utterly disgraced themselves; there is but one honorable course of action available to them, but... (clenching teeth, visibly frustrated) i am bound by Community Guidelines, and can say no more on the matter

You know what to do

INVENTOR: i have just created the push button MARKETING GUY: should i do a press release INVENTOR: that’s how it works, yes

God fucking dammit. Evil keep winning over and over.

This is hilarious. Also, completely enraging.

The giant planets of the Solar System, by JWST.

usually if you ask experts why an empire fell they’ll say it’s nuanced and multifaceted, so i think it’s kind of cool that with America future historians will get to just say like “oh they took the idiot train to moronsville”

a woman's back muscles. share if you agree.

How do you even come back from this as a country?

The sheer incompetence of this administration is staggering, and that's saying nothing of the vile evil they are churning out as well.

Wow something good? Shocking.

i often think about this review

Democrats are controlled opposition. They do not represent the people.

the fact that ICE instantly agreed to use body cams should be all the evidence you need that they accomplish nothing and everyone in power already knows it

MUST READ this powerful, intimate dispatch from Minneapolis by @propublica.org visual journalists @peterdicampo.bsky.social (who lives there) & @cengizyar.com This is America.

Unfortunately BIPOC folks are the canaries in the coal mines. It took 2 white people being blatantly murdered in a way that countless BIPOC folks have been since this country was founded. If we're only fighting fascism when it affects white folks, its gonna kill far too many of us.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

In response to ICE agents murdering Alex Pretti, the Whittier neighborhood immediately rose up and battled ICE, Minnesota police, and Minnesota State Troopers for over four hours, eventually forcing them to withdraw from the area. An eyewitness account. crimethinc.com/AlexPretti

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia. Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.” Really listen to it.

You can't cede ground to these fascists.
