I realize I’m just shouting into the wind here, but: please, please, please stop posting screenshots without links, or summarizing breaking news events without links. There’s a serious problem with unsourced assertions all over the world right now, don’t be part of the problem.

Popehat is right. Criminal prosecution is the compromise position, and it's better than these thugs deserve.

1) Assuming we don't hit societal collapse, the highlander series could use a remake. 2) IF they up queerness/transness to 11. These are immortals who love elaborate swordfights. They've honed *drama* to a fine art. Their theme song's by Queen. You're telling me they're mostly cishet? LOL. No.

Dear #portfolioday we meet again! I'm Yorgos and I mostly work on book covers and art that looks like this! ⚔️ www.cotronis.com ⚔️

Art class should never stop being a thing. Like if right after lunch we all got to go down to the basement for an hour, throw on a smock, and make collages out of old magazines while somebody's eccentric, slightly witchy aunt tells us how great we're doing, I feel like we'd all be in a better place.

🚨 SCOOP 🚨 DHS is asking IRS to locate **7 MILLION** suspected undocumented immigrants using confidential tax records. It’s a massive escalation by DHS to use the tax system for mass deportation. IRS officials are aghast, say it’s likely illegal.

They are now estimating 2.3 million across the country. Keep it going folks. #handsoff #50501protests

#HANDSOFF #NYC

North Carolinians, check to see if your vote for Riggs was thrown out. You have 2 weeks to correct it!

The #HandsOff protests from EVERY STATE (+ DC), a story told alphabetically::

DO NOT MISTAKE EARNESTNESS FOR A THING TO BE AFRAID OF. “Cringe” or s too often simply just the word used to mask the discomfort that comes with being vulnerable! It’s okay to feel vulnerable about being earnest about important issues in the world!

Military historian teaching in the Army’s most elite officer training school booted to the curb, along with his entire department; the base which houses it, itself historic, to be shuttered.

Also like. Cringe is, as I understand it, just embarrassment? Y'all. If being embarrassed stops you from ANYTHING, like. And I mean this in the kindest way possible: Get over yourself. You'll have a lot more fun and also maybe make some friends and topple fascism.

#HandsOff Austin, Texas

damn, I've got family from there, this is HUGE for Beaumont

too much darkness today please enjoy 54 seconds of my horse son enjoying one of his favorite hobbies, Zipper

ok that’s enough news time to drink

Unless schools start to step up higher education in the United States is going to die within the year and will be replaced with rightwing facsimiles. The fascists are attacking schools in an effort to destroy the methods of knowledge and social reproduction that democracy depends on.

The New York State Education Department on Friday issued a defiant response to the Trump administration’s threats to pull federal funding from public schools over certain diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

Heads up that the “Learn Latin” guy from Twitter has just set up an account on here. If you don’t know, this account is a reactionary alt-right trad bro in all the worst ways. Let’s all preemptively block the bastard & deny him any oxygen. He doesn’t belong here.

This is torture and this is terrorism. Not "I said a thing that hurt Trump's feelings" terrorism but a violent act against a civilian meant to terrorize other civilians into behaving terrorism

💯 There’s no “suffering” leader board. It’s not a high score to beat.

Two heroic stray dogs rescued an injured dog from the middle of the road by dragging him to safety. The dog had been hit by a car and was stranded. Many cars passed by, but it was two stray dogs who pulled him off the road. The injured dog survived, and the stray dogs were rescued. 15/10 for both

Schwarzenegger winning seemed like the most embarrassing thing that would ever happen in politics at the time and now he’s to the left of every elected Republican and a few Democrats and just makes videos going “young men, my fadda was a Nazi and he was a contemptible loosah”

if you're casting around wondering "what immigrant defense folks are hurting for funds" look no further than my colleagues at miamemphis.org aiding immigrants including victims of child separation and family violence in and around Nashville and Memphis.

I don't talk about this much but I'm a Cornell alumn and yeah I'm in my feelings

babe what's wrong you've barely touched your holistic pizza that represents ancestral healing

Was reminded of this all-time Tumblr post

Maybe you didn't know that Black clergy launched a 40-day boycott of Target (corresponding with Lent, but heck, this Jew can count to 40 with the best of 'em!). Or maybe you did - maybe you even started! But you forgot. IT'S NOT TOO LATE TO GET [BACK] ON BOARD ⬇️

if the united states ever has even a hope of recovering we have to destroy the idea of american individualism. "they don't owe you anything" we owe each other everything actually

If I could have one wish it would be to destroy gerrymandering Two wishes would include shooting lightning out of my hands

23 nonwhite lives still don't equal one white billionaire life in this calculus.

IF ANYONE IS IN THE SENATE RN I will pay FIVE DOLLARS if you "accidently" blast the intro to Not Like Us whenever this ends

Just so everybody understands, Booker has been speaking cogently about the issues the entire time and Strom Thurmond famously spent hours reading from the encyclopedia, because segregationists were and are dumbshits

We know who the real April fools are.

And, to be clear, it's almost certainly happening *because* the base has been screaming for action from elected Democrats. This isn't "relax, they've got this." This is "keep yelling, it's working."

The Democratic Party: snatching defeat from the jaws of victory is our business

Phone message template: "Hello Senator, My name is [x] I'm calling from [y]. I want to thank you for your filibuster this evening--I'm watching the live stream on YouTube. I appreciate seeing a Senator stand up against the abuses of the Trump Administration (because mine sucks)...
