In the original caption, the AP insinuated that I'd been arrested while peacefully observing the protests with other faith leaders at the ICE facility in Broadview on Friday. While I'm grateful they've since clarified, I'd like to offer the following alternative caption:

Honestly if the rapture happens for Evangelicals tomorrow it makes our work a LOT easier. My only hope is that I’ve moved my parents *just* enough for them to stay.

You are not going to out "tough on crime" fascist Republicans. Because they don't actually care about *crime* - they care about racism and power.

Just wild to me that the generation who benefited most from the most socialist moments in this country (the new deal, labor union solidarity and post war industry) are so opposed to it.

My toxic trait is that I think I am the only person alive who still trolls the crowdfunding site who fundraised money for Kyle Rittenhouse. You are not safe from me GiveSendGo, I am a legendary hater.

Between people believing their nostalgic memory is God (Mandela Effect) and AI aggregating history incorrectly we must cling to the dirt in fingernails work of remembering rightly through hard work, with citations and clarity.

I think it's because I'm older now and also lived through 9/11 in this country but I just find USian Islamophobia extremely pathetic and I think that the Islamophobes are losers, lol. But I imagine younger Muslims are definitely fed up with this current virulent manifestation.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

As politicians inevitably begin to turn on Trumpism as its failures mount, remember that the racism and cruelty was never their turning point. And don’t ever let them forget it.

I changed chrome from my default browser to the DuckDuckGo one. The AI overview just flat out gave the wrong answer for the 1972 Oscar winner…it’s not the biggest thing I know but it’s illustrative of how wrong LLMs are and how we will be fed the wrong facts if we depend on them. Kill AI bullshit

There’s a cameo in Friendship that elicited applause from the whole crowd and the final punchline of the character almost made me hyperventilate. See it in a theater ASAP with as many people as possible. Tim Robinson and Paul Rudd masterpiece.

Tear off the masks when they show up. Take their photos. Get them on video. Expose them. Out them. Name them. They need to be made into pariahs where decent people gather. We cannot allow them to terrorize us. Eyes open. Phones on.

There needs to be a new Dogme 95 film movement for action movies where you’re only allowed to use practical effects and limited access to computers for effects.

Pretty sure I heard a kid on the playground say “well at least I *have* a mom” to a another kid that’s a cold as fuck line, but I honestly don’t know if he was joking about the other kid having two gay dads or a dead mom. Either way crazy burn kid.

It’s still very possible that the Terminator universe is actually a Dune universe prequel chronicling the Butlerian Jihad against thinking computers, but not enough people are talking about it.

Another insane story. The US has confiscated this family’s baby and put her into foster care, basically because the parents have tattoos — and deported the mom to Venezuela and trafficked the dad into prison in El Salvador. They have no known criminal record
