"I asked ChatGPT" "I asked Grok" ok well I asked Gandalf and he said he has not passed through fire and death to bandy crooked words with a witless worm

Niche exciting thing but omfg @garthnix.bsky.social CONGRATS, DESERVED - Sabriel was life changing to my seventh grade self. happy for you and thank you for the Old Kingdom

MagicCon Vegas is almost here! This is where you'll be able to find me and @goberthicks.bsky.social each day! IMPORTANT: Our Meet and Greets will require a special wristband to join to line! This is a new policy from the show so people aren't turned away after waiting! Pick yours up in the morning!

Especially if you're on the fence about it, protest today. Fascism is isolating and lonely. Its very goal is to make you feel like you're the only person unwilling to accept a cult of personality. On days like today you fully realize there are more of us than there are them. You will feel better.

We have entered the "The police is saying that if the police is at your door you are not safe call the police immediately" stage of making America great again

Idk man but when the administration that tried to reject humanitarian aid for Los Angeles when it was burning tries to justify their illegal military occupation by saying they aren’t going to let LA burn it kinda sounds like bullshit

This is illegal. This is illegal. Did I mention this is illegal?

Just to give an idea of how much the Trump administration wants to "help" the citizens of Los Angeles by sending in the military

Turns out the "illegal" pregnant woman was a US citizen, and she's since been hospitalized.

Breaking news: The Trump administration is planning a major increase of deportations to Guantánamo, including citizens of Britain, France and other allies. Officials said they are unlikely to inform the foreigners’ home governments about the transfers.

Trump threatens to use “heavy force” against anyone who protests his military parade this weekend, and note that he makes no exception for peaceful protesters

New from 404 Media: Delta, United, American etc don't want you to know they sold your flight data to DHS. The country's airlines sell bulk names and flight itineraries to DHS to be searched without a warrant. Contract tells DHS to not reveal where this data came from www.404media.co/airlines-don...

This is so fucking good

as a native Angeleno, if the LA Times under Soon-Shiong is printing this, then it’s unequivocal

CNN captures LAPD forming a line before charging at protesters and firing at them

If your response to this video is, “That’s what I voted for”— Fuck you. Fuck you very much. You’re heartless.

Statistically “America” is its cities. But we’re stuck with an 18th century political architecture that gives votes to cornfields & thus makes it politically viable to treat them as some kind of weird tumor.

LAPD when they think no one’s looking

Haven't seen a single news story yet mention this is not an authorized use of this weapon. It not considered "less lethal," as they like to say, when misused. A butterknife is a less than lethal weapon until it's not.

she’s like 15 feet away. absolutely that man’s whole thought process was: “I’m gonna shoot that woman”

This is a fever dream. The city is not under migrant occupation. This whole thing kicked off because ICE began an intense operation across the city to raid Home Depots and nail salons and places where random undocumented immigrants might be going about their day working a job.

Also point this out to anyone you can. These were not planned protests. These were normies getting the supplies for their weekend projects or at a restaurant and saw their servers getting hauled off and were like this is some bullshit.

I just have to say for those of you not in LA that in the days before the horrible raids started, there was no crisis or whatever they would let you believe. It wasn't like something was escalating out of control and somebody had to step in. THEY are creating the problems.

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

As someone who lives in Los Angeles, don’t let social or mainstream media gaslight you into thinking there’s a violent uprising taking place here. The Trump administration is trying to punish this state and this city. He’s also setting a precedent to unleash troops on Democratic cities.

not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns los angeles is "real america" and so are all the other big cities the president hates

cops doing crime on camera. as @chadloder.bsky.social has been pointing out all day, this is totally illegal. cops doing crime. on camera. adjust your stupid headlines accordingly.

LAPD fired rubber bullets at Australian journalist @laurentomasi.bsky.social

Police continue to shoot directly at protesters. Multiple protesters are bleeding with wounds

The spin has already started as if our entire city is in chaos. I went from Burbank all the way over to Koreatown on surface streets tonight and jackshit was happening. The CNN coverage makes it look like world war 3 and that’s what Trump wants so he and his fucking goons can come shoot Angelenos.

The president exists in a dystopian fantasy world with no connection to reality
