I didn't know I needed a comic strip version of Real Genius until right now.

I am hearing more slurs in everyday conversation now—on the street, at the pub—the same way I used to hear them in the playground. I still flinch when I think of them being uttered behind the scenes of a popular and influential TV show. Whether driven by ignorance or some normalised casualness.

Perhaps Newsom should have spent less time chumming around with authoritarian buffoons on his podcast and more time preparing and strategizing for the entirely predicable thing that is happening in his state right now.

Klandace Owens never thought…Trump would give her exactly what she voted for? 🐆💀

They voted for Trump. ICE arrested their son.

This MAGA farmer is *shocked* that Trump would do anything to hurt family owned farms like his. 🐆💀

When Huerta says “We are a power” He means the farmworker, the janitor, the nurse, the home care provider. The workers. And he’s right. You can’t detain a movement. #FreeDavidHuerta #FreeThemAll

I thought I would be safe if I positioned myself with all the cable news crews off to the side away from all of the protesters. But nope. I was wrong. The feds shot pepper balls at us, forcing us down Alameda Street with everyone else. @lataco.bsky.social

“Tasted a little tear gas— tasted like fascism”

This would be a good time for the Catholic clergy in Los Angeles to show up and help people by peaceful protest.

Complete stranger trying to explain to a wheelchair user what Othering is. GTFOH.

Very interested in seeing if they do a fuck around / find out with the world’s fifth largest global economy and headquarters of the world’s richest lunatic who also hates them now

Hey ICE you unmask first

I believe nonviolent protest is critically important and in fact the single most effective driver of change (that doesn’t come with an indefensible body count) I also believe the time to lecture protesters on protest tactics during a fascist incursion is after you got arrested with them

they're doing this because the Insurrection Act sounds cool and edgy but they can't actually justify using the Insurrection Act. it's a silly action by an insecure administration desperately to seem manly and powerful. it should be criticized relentlessly, but it should also be laughed at.

Talked to someone from LA, a Mexican who served in the military, to make sure their mom & them were okay, and they brought up not only that the CA nat'l guard is majority Mexican (their words), but also that if the gangs decide to organize & mobilize then this all gets very Interesting very Quickly.

If you want to prepare for a spicy summer 3M mask with extra filters. Ideally a full face respirator. Soft body armor of some kind for impact munitions. Doesn't have to be ballistic. Helmet. Can be ballistic. Can be bump. Even a bicycle helmet can save your life from a grenade.

Incredible view of Mt. Rainier from the Anderson Island ferry! #wawx #PNW

This is way more surreal than the LAPD statement. The LAPD statement is boilerplate "the protest went fine" they use for a ton of events This one is different, calling for the general public to know their rights *while the fast food industry is lobbying against mandatory KYR trainings in LA!*

Greetings! I’m here on Alondra Boulevard in Paramount, CA. The pro-immigration protesters are still squaring off with police nearby. Even hours later, the air still noticeably hangs with residual chemical munitions. Ground littered with spent munitions.

Fellow lawyer friend of mine who does Immigration in #LosAngeles sent this. #ICE is denying people legal counsel; tear-gassing the lawyers they do allow; tear-gassing small kids. This is only the beginning; having basically memorized Project 2025, I can assure you, things only get worse. from here.

PETE HEGSETH IS THREATENING TO SEND MARINES INTO LOS ANGELES. This is in direct violation of the 1878 Posse Comitatus Act. It is an illegal order! You can reach the Marine Inspector General Hotline at 1-866-243-3887. www-irishstar-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.iris...

I'm old enough to remember when "black lives matter" was called a bad slogan as it somehow implied it meant white lives didn't. I remember how kneeling during the anthem was called a disgusting way to protest. There is no form of protest appropriate to some people and you should ignore them

California Governor Gavin Newsom refers to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s threat to deploy US Marines to the LA area as “deranged behavior.”

the literal mascot of the whole country is the statue who greets immigrants

Man, now I'm tempted to sarcastically nickname him Stephen Mijo just because it would piss him off so much.

Reposting "Presidential Memorandum" on calling National Guard into federal service with alt text www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

I must point out that allowing cops to hide their identities ("undercover") and deceive people in SOME situations set the precedent for this.
