Lapras and Wooper on a lil adventure! #pokemon #blender

Me and my Dragonbear, together for over 20 years and married nearly as long. Dang near got disowned for loving him, but he's the reason I've thrived. Nothing better than a best friend who has your back and guards your heart. #EnberFam #EnberSighting

I just wanna say something really plainly that I haven’t seen spelled out like this There is no such thing as legal immigration anymore. Because they are taking people at their citizenship hearings they are taking people who are doing everything by the book. 1/2

Seeing how right wing and centrist accounts fail to get traction on bluesky makes me wonder how our online culture would be different if the platforms weren’t intentionally rigging their algorithms in favor of those assholes.

the “don’t tread on me” guys saw ice rounding people up in LA and said “wellll technically that’s not me”

Fanart of Kleya and Luthen from Andor. I love them so much. #andor

Will-O'-Wisp, 2016 At some point I'd really love to redo one of my older pieces. This one is a contender. There are always so many things I want to work on...

the "where are all the protests against trump" people became the "these protests against trump are bad optics" people so quickly you may have missed it

anyway I’m going out to protest this weekend because we haven’t been beaten yet, and I suggest you do the same it’ll make you feel better than reading an endless stream of posts about how we’re all doomed and we might as well offer ourselves up to be processed into slurry for the MAGA AI mines now

Sources said that even at the start of his second term, Trump was discussing with multiple advisers where & when it would make sense to send in federal troops, either for supposed crime control or in response to larger-scale public activism against his agenda. 🔗 www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

What The High Republic has meant to me and so many others cannot be overstated. Stoked that this article confirms we're getting more from this era!

Remember making art and expressing joy is a form of protest. They want you to be overwhelmed and lose sight of the beauty around you. They want to distract you and control your gaze to be locked in fear. Dare to look and gaze on the world around you with joy and wonder.

Find your closest rally on Saturday and go. You can tell your kids where you were on the other side of this. Outnumber him everywhere. www.nokings.org#map

They keep talking about punishing protestors as if this country wasn’t FOUNDED BY PROTESTERS WHO ENSHRINED THE RIGHT TO PROTEST, I AM SO TIRED OF HOW STUPID THINGS HAVE BECOME

Do. Not. Travel. To. The. United. States.

ICE was "responding" to the chaos ICE itself created. It was not responding to the way LA is without intentional provocation from ICE. And now the National Guard is "responding" to the chaos ICE created. It is not responding to the way LA is without intentional provocation from ICE.

The federal government is telling you they cannot afford to house you, feed you, educate you or heal you — but that they do have enough resources and scale to criminalize, assault, deport and incarcerate your neighbors simply going to work or taking their kids to graduation.

Greta Thunberg could easily have succumbed, as have so many activists before, to exchanging ineffective cosmetic protest for the adulation of the establishment, but chose instead to follow her moral compass directly into incredible danger incredible human being

I think about this all the time in regards to the anti-trans movement in particular. It was sparked by…nothing. Trans people existing, getting legal recognition of their gender, accessing healthcare (including as minors), participating in sports, using the bathroom? That was the status quo

Gaza waters are not Israeli waters and this was an illegal act of piracy, and Rima Hassan and Greta Thunberg have been kidnapped

"My name is Greta Thunberg and I am from Sweden. If you see this video, we have been intercepted and kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces, or forces that support Israel."

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

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.

the decision to "be safe" is no longer yours to make. the state has decided to make us unsafe. but you can make informed choices, take calculated risks, and you can decide to be powerful.

Definitely need the National Guard to quell this... insurrection of... line dancing?

“Being in a country illegally” is a totally fake thing someone made up.

A good counterargument to "you shouldn't do [xxx] because then the fascists and press will call it a riot!!" is you can literally not show up and the fascists, the press will still call it a riot

Peace through strength isn’t peace. It’s oppression.

Note THUS FAR, LAT is covering this as a response to Trump's ICE escalation (other outlets are treating the protests as the spark).

"The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear."

I truly believe part of the reason this is happening in LA right now is because they want to scare us into not protesting for no Kings day. DT is actually worried he’s gonna lose the news cycle so he wants to make sure everyone is too scared. 1/2

The LA protests will trigger a drumbeat of "law and order" messaging from the White House and their media allies as a prelude to invoking the Insurrection Act. This is entirely predictable, and any Dem or media outlet that facilitates this narrative will be aiding Trump's authoritarian project.

not sure there's a more embarrassing profession than ICE agent. Oh, you dress like a soldier to abduct sous chefs and throw flashbangs at protesters? Get a real job you loser

This is exactly why we were saying defund the police. The police are the vanguard of authoritarian regimes.

"Don't murder Greta Thunberg and half a dozen other people in cold blood with US made weapons" gets a whopping 11 signatures in the House
