i stand corrected

Just in time honestly

IDK man but when I saw the news, Rhythm Is Gonna Get You by Gloria Estefan immediately popped into my head. 🎵🎶

This is going to ruin the tour

Lydia Bennet’s Minerva Mink-ass levels of unadulterated, laser focused horniness is so real and so funny.

Ro Khanna: “I saw the arrogance in the eyes of the Settlers. 21 & 22 year olds with guns, laughing that they’d detained us. The arrogance of those IDF soldiers... It is the arrogance of power. Of a power that has had no accountability. Total impunity. And it’s created a toxic culture of oppression.”

This post is important. Federal agencies are blocking local officials from accessing evidence about the fatal ICE shooting in Houston, so the Harris County District Attorney's office is asking the community to send them any evidence so they can work to hold ICE accountable.

Here's why you may not know that: 64% of Memphis residents are Black. There are other reasons, but mostly that.

For your viewing pleasure, I also doodled a portrait of an unfortunate typo I made while typing up the last post.

I had to stop and take a few minutes to doodle out a little dreamt visual of Mr Darcy.

Unexpectedly moving declaration by Houston Mayor Whitmire embracing Lorenzo Salgado as a "Houstonian." He vowed to bring to bear Houston's resources to pursue an independent investigation. He appears stunned–like the way many people feel the first time they realize the govt lied about everything.

Millions of people rot their brains on this stuff daily.

The Maine secretary of state says Graham Platner *has* formally withdrawn from the Senate race. This is ahead of the Monday deadline, and so the Democratic party will be authorized to replace him, by July 27th.

just found out that a certain “labor reporter” with a decades-long history of violently harassing women and queer people in the labor movement (myself included) is lurking around on here. If you care about workers and Mike Elk follows you, do us all a favor and block him.

I'm in a mood, so I'm watching She Said and drinking whiskey.

IMPORTANT: Today, July 10th, is not the termination date for Haitian and Syrian TPS. DHS' website has been updated to reflect that. Employment authorization remains in place as we continue to await further action by the courts and DHS required to implement the SCOTUS opinion.

i cannot fathom what it’s like for Lorenzo Salgado Araujo’s family right now. this country murdered their husband/father for no reason.

If you’re like me and this got lost in the flood of chaos, please take a sec to call your senators and urge them to hold a final vote.

Hey Brits 🇬🇧, can someone point me to an explainer for this Binface thing? I'm so confused.

KEY: all three witnesses are being detained apart, and their story is consistent. They say that there were agents along the side of the vehicle but none in front. When you add the videos showing a lack of evidence of damage to the front despite ICE's ramming claim, ICE's story is falling apart.

The secret police who have lied about every person they’ve senselessly killed in the streets have once again lied about a person they senselessly killed in the streets.

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti

You mean a sexual predator recruited another sexual predator?

Thinking of muting the term "establishment" until everyone stops using it to just describe the political actors they don't like. Words mean things, unless there are points to be scored apparently.

“Cornell researchers found that at the current rate of AI growth, the burgeoning industry could represent 24 to 44 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions by 2030, the equivalent of adding five to ten million cars to US roadways.”

Putinesque all fucking day.

I hate him!!!!!*** ***want to bear his children somehow

This girl is you. This girl is me. This girl is every single person who has ever been moved to seething vengeance on behalf of a friend. Elizabeth Bennet, off we go! To war!!!

ELIZABETH: Hey, so this is my favorite little plodding path. I’m gonna walk here a lot. *meaningful stern glare* DARCY: OH yes, yes. I see. ELIZABETH: (Phew, now he knows where to avoid me. No more awkward run-ins) DARCY: *shows up even more* ELIZABETH: ???

God, Elizabeth’s prickly little mind has basically the same tenor as your meanest, unhappiest gay friend.

I went from “Wow Elizabeth Bennet kinda feels like a manic pick-me dream girl” to “I will take a blunt object to anybody’s car lights if they say a bad word about Liz.” Jane Austen. Is so good.

Huh. Elizabeth really is the mold in which every Not Like Other Girls sort of heroine is cast. She’s definitely pretty, but only a normal amount of pretty—surely not as pretty as her very pretty big sister—but who cares because she’s so smart, so so smart, which is why she’s dad’s favorite.

This does need to become Minneapolis-level focus for progressives. Allowing ICE to murder people in unmarked vans then deport the witnesses is a line we have to fight with every protest tool possible.

Sir, a second interview has hit the schedule! I repeat, another company has scheduled me for an interview with their VP! Gimme those competing offers baybeeee, come ooooooon!

NEWS --> Three men who were in the van with the victim of the ICE shooting in Texas are potential witnesses, but they're now under pressure to self-deport, a rep for the families tells me. They remain in detention even as ICE's story falters. Details in this piece: newrepublic.com/article/2129...

💔

Enough of this shit, man. Fight Agency should be blackballed if he doesn't file the paperwork by tomorrow, this is stupid www.axios.com/2026/07/09/g...

Oh, have I not told this one here? Okay. So Grandma had The Charisma.

Today's agenda: Free art museum, world-class ramen for lunch, then bookstore with killer used section followed by romance bookstore. Guess where I am! 🚌

Platner was, using these Rorschach vibes *also* able to appeal to centrist and liberal fans who saw in him a Great White Hope that could restore the Dems fortunes, and who validated their own (often naked) misogyny, rather than face the true meaning of AOC and Mamdani's successes.

The "anti-establishment" streak in this group of people leaves them vulnerable to the culture-hacking Platner and his team pulled off, using vibes and the right words to signal the affiliations that would appeal to wired lefties (vague intimations of socialism, being anti-Israel, "anti-war").

Well, duh. We've only been warning you about this for a full year.

"Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced Tuesday that his department would redirect $1.73 billion in Biden-era grants away from establishing “DEI bike lanes” to build roads and bridges instead." The most shallow, simplistic fuckwits to have ever lived are running the US government...

You’ve got to be fucking kidding me

What an odious motherfucker.

Hey you know I think he might have known it was a Totenkopf after all
