We do need mass movement but I gotta say this. Folks who just got energized need to make space for the resentment of folks who have been shouting this whole time, including the left & Black people. People who are part of this collective who have legitimate bitterness at how they've been treated.

Genie: ok what do you want for your birthday Trump: a military parade, oh, and also millions of people on the street chanting my name Genie: okie dokie

Does anybody even see these fucking things?

The moment I saw my first daughter I knew I wanted to be a dad. And besides my two (now adult) children, I’ve been a substitute dad for several other folx. And I love being a grandpa, my grandson is a blessing. And if you need a dad or grandpa who will just love you without judgment? 🫂💚

Y’know why I like cats? They are what they are. Murder and love. S’also why I like people. They are deeply flawed with all the tools around them to be better. Love you. G’night.

Ok this is killer. Stanzi is so good. youtube.com/shorts/VAqHh...

Canadians clutching their pearls about ICE barely know the Liberals are pushing through a bill right now giving the gov the ability to check your mail, get your IP and internet history, and makes immigration and asylum seeking way more difficult

This is why you don't give up on red states. You're leaving YOUR PEOPLE, who're fighting twice as hard for inches of progress, behind. Well done, Texas.

People are complaining about how cringe things have been at some of the protests- but the ladies in pussyhats showed up, said they are NOT okay with how the world is, spoke truth to power & even if their hats are cringe, you have to give them credit where credit is due. Thank you pussyhat ladies.

No way the played Fortunate Son at authoritarian military parade. lol Conservatives are incapable of media literacy. Play Born in the USA next.

Begging my comrades to understand that you can and should be asking for more than Medicare for All.

@emma-addams.bsky.social & I about to watch Smokey and the Bandit, which is canonically a trans coded movie bc all of the songs were written by a trans woman, jsyk.

I am $60 shy of reaching this goal. Any settler allies willing to help me out for #SettlerSaturday #HelpSky #IndigenousMutualAid #Urgent #MutualAid

"I had not touched a cat in 15 yrs when an orange kitten wandered over to sit w/me in the grass one day. I was left without adequate words to describe that experience. It reminded me that I am alive. It instilled in me a raw, unbridled happiness that I had never felt before, not even as a child."

Ferguson was really an eye opener for me. I was watching live streams on Twitter seeing multiple people from multiple angles document something in real time and then in the news the next day it would say the complete opposite of what I saw. truly rewrote my lifelong neural pathways

saw a few cool signs hanging from the freeway overpasses but my fav is the random guy walking down SE 82nd with a large sign that read, “Trump is a CUNT!!!” #pdx #OneManProtest #NoKings

BWHAHAHA, get wrecked, loser pigs 😂

Victimless for once

The one two punch of Ouilette and Carey is fucking AMAZING. #Riders

Ahh the classic cartoon defence.

*double rainbow voice* DOUBLE HOT DOG! DOUBLE HOT DOG!!

A lot of people like to debate the ethics of ritual sacrifice until they start winning at the craps table.

"I'm still punk," I say as I ice my back after throwing it out putting on my socks.

I love our Aussie punter named Joe Couch. #Riders

So you spend your life building a reputation as an honest journalist, and as soon as you retire you sell that reputation to the reverse mortgage scam. Amazing.

So this week we’ve had a man impersonating an ICE agent tie up a woman and steal $1000; a man impersonating a police officer assassinate a top Democratic politician & her husband (and shoot another Democrat & his wife); and a man impersonating a king hold a military parade for his birthday

I put Cholula in my margarine for my popcorn and 🤤

The No Kings protest at The Beer Garden is getting a little spicy

Bad news: we accidentally locked Flyers’ mascot Gritty in the musk ox enclosure overnight. Good news: he now has a mate.

Fuck. Yes.

It you want sealed impact protection paintball goggles are the way to go. Hard to knock off, meant to take an impact from projectiles flying at 300fps, padded, and sealed. Buy the whole mask, hides your face, protects as well as the lower half is meant to deflect and take same impact as goggles.
