“Is it fair to ask the American people to pay for that?” TRUMP: “I’m giving 100% to charity.” P.S. - No he isn’t P.P.S. - He thinks we are all idiots

“The f*ck are we doing?”

GM: Charisma check. Mamdani: [rolls natural 20] GM: that’s a d6 how did you Mamdani: [direct to camera] Did you know you can check out board games at your local public library? 😊

Take the L, Bill. For the good of the country.

Please pay attention to decimal places as you read this post. He paid $750.00 in income taxes [I am neither an accountant nor a lawyer so will make no further comment on that] and wants $10,000,000,000.00 because somebody leaked that fact.

Epstein’s economic power among academics was made possible by a capitalist system that makes higher education dependent on the charity economy rather than a public good supported by taxing the rich

The post-Me Too era has really taught me that the underlying issue with the persistence of sexual violence isn’t exactly women’s credibility, as the “believe women” slogan suggested, but rather with rape’s moral status. It’s not that people think it doesn’t happen. They think it doesn’t matter.

for friday the 13th next month #tattooart

We are quite literally sitting in the midst of perhaps the greatest coverup of powerful men, around the globe, who are responsible for child rape and sex trafficking — and yet there is a ridiculous pantomime going on about whether any crimes were committed or not, and whether anyone is accountable.

it continues to be hilarious that that QAnon and Pizzagate believers constructed entire code languages that the secret pedophile cabal use to communicate and then every actual Epstein email is just: Dear Jeffrey, I love the girls you got for me, very nubile. Can't wait to see you at RapeFest 2012!

just choked on my beverage

i've been thinking about a boss form for my azem, aphrodite!! inspired by kos, and the mermaid from the lighthouse, and the fantasia centaurs. which is... an interesting mix when i just list them 😂 #rosiedrawing (i guess i should start using this when i remember to post)

Springtime in NorCal (although it still continues cool and damp) 🌱

Many people like me want ICE abolished or DHS dismantled completely. We also know Dems do not control the WH, the Senate, or the House. In that context, the demands serve to convey an expectation that Dem lawmakers extract MAXIMALIST concessions. Unfortunately, even that is not happening.

As good an illustration as any that "woke" for these folks just means "non-white people are allowed to exist."

“in theater” is a crazy way to describe minneapolis

Bill Kristol sees this shit clearly. I don't know how so many elected Democrats don't.

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

I know the Orwell quote. The admin repeatedly saying "what you saw on multiple videos is not what you saw" is still fucking shocking, every time.

If they can't just shoot us in the street, how can they protect us from the five year old boy whose dad was waiting patiently for a hearing?

The Nazi SA - Sturmabteilung, or Storm Troopers - were often recruited from the dregs of society: barely literate failures incapable of holding down a job and only fit for murder and terror. The scum of Germany. Hitler gave them free rein to vent their rage on their betters. Sound familiar, America?

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

Matthew 25 is what got him. Then: "I dont want to believe in hell. I dont want to believe youre going there. But this is what Jesus says. You can walk away. You can choose justice. You can use your skills and training for good. You can be a protector. But right now you're not."

"look to the helpers" THEY'RE MURDERING THE HELPERS

You could actually structure your moral code around the idea that law enforcement doesn't exist to execute people. You don't have to create perfect victim narratives, you can just refuse to accept that the state gets to kill people.

Nicollet Ave in South Mpls now resembles a warzone after federal agents killed a man there this morning. Trump is trying his damndest to make this community unlivable.

Republicans: everyone must be able to carry any gun at all times, up to and including high powered rifles, to protect themselves against tyranny also Republicans, without batting an eye: carrying a gun is unquestionable justification for federal agents to shoot you dead in the street

I want you to hear yourself that when the KIDNAP A FIVE YEAR OLD IN SUB ZERO TEMPERATURES AND PUT THAT BABY on a plane to TEXAS after calling him IT I want you to say it to YOURSELF WITH YOUR WHOLE CHEST that I shouldn’t be telling my congressman to get of his ass AND THEN TELL ME WHY

There is no redeeming this, no amount of training that can fix the rot at the heart of this institution. Any Democratic official that votes to give this agency a penny is betraying our country.

I keep seeing people trying to draw delineations between ICE (bad) and Real Officers of the Law (good) and y'all, there may be some distinctions but every argument ICE is using to justify their murder and destruction came from Real Officers of the Law.

From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.

Why has the murderer not been charged with murder?

If you let them, the horrors will devour you whole. Making space to live and smile is an act of resistance. So is helping others to do the same. If you’re an artist in this time, remember that what you’re doing is part of the emotional support infrastructure. They want you silent. 1/2

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

real happy with todays tattoo #tattooart

I can't describe how bad Minneapolis feels right now. My neighbors are pulling kids out of school. The public schools are offering remote learning until 2/12. We are having conversations in our alleys about how to protect ourselves. It feels like a military occupation with a blockade.

When NIMBYs say that California is full and their cities can’t accommodate more housing, they are saying that queer people trying to get out of red states are on their own.

Been a good run

This should not be shrugged aside. They have stopped with the fake 22 million illegal immigrants things and are flat out saying we want to deport 10's of millions of citizens and legal residents from "third world countries" Basically they are advocating removing 1/3 of the population on a gov site.

Next time someone says they don’t have to apologize for being white anymore, ask them to tell about the most recent time they were forced to apologize for being white and who made them do it.

Space, the Final Frontier, until the Fire Nation attacked.

Of all the dirty tricks: juking USPS rules so that the postmark of mail-in ballots won't reflect the date they were put in the hands of the Postal Service, creating a pretext to throw out the votes.

I don't think you could come up with a list more designed to inflame sentiments than "here is a list of things that publishers MUST use AI to do and remain competitive, but don't worry, this isn't pushing out creative labor"

Got hella wind and rain right now. ⛈️
