When Black people told you that it is a normal occurrence for police to lie about protest and assaulting officers now you see ... the test run for the justification of authoritarianism always begins in communities of color

Awful. But there's no bipartisan-savvy, cautiously centrist way out of this. The Republicans are unleashing full police state fascism, throwing the Constitution in the trash and not pretending otherwise. Appeals to their good nature have been rejected for YEARS. What now, Democrats?

seen some people complaining that this is a political stunt and lemme say if this was the kind of political stunt more politicians were doing on a regular basis we wouldn't be where we are today dude is actually putting himself on the line here, fuck off with that shit

Beautiful but heartbreaking statement. Please read only if you feel up to it. It’s so sad but incredibly sweet and (in its way, though written with tremendous grief) very life affirming.

Melissa Hortman and her husband were volunteers for Helping Paws, which trains potential service dogs. Please consider joining me to make a donation in their (and Gilbert’s) memory: helpingpaws.org

Trump is sending ICE to blue cities to enact the "largest mass deportation program in history" and Chicago is at the top of the list. I'm calling for every Democratic leader and candidate to stand against ICE, to call for its abolition, and to materially support immigrants. Inaction is complicity.

it's some kind of dark humor that Israel's answer to MAD has been to adopt basically Schrodinger's Cat as an official state WMD policy

Chicago congresswoman @repdeliaramirez hands Kristi Noem a letter of resignation and encourages her to use it 👀

HELP LOW ON FOOD. FOUR KIDS AND MYSELF. KIDS ARE HOME FOR SUMMER NOW.

When one of the cowards in the LAPD shoved a 77 year-old Army vet, the crowd caught the man before he crashed into the pavement. The cops do not protect us. We literally protect us *from the cops*. Via @pplscitycouncil.bsky.social

May her memory be a blessing and may you never fucking forget.

I stopped giving money to Dem candidates after Fetterman sold my personal info across who knows how many dark, blue, and red webs and I implore my fellow liberals to stop giving politicians more money and to start donating whatever you’ve got - money, food - to people in your immediate communities

Seen this going around but I’m Reposting it with the full alt text bc everyone deserves to read this glorious reply from Boy George

Trans people deserve the freedom to control our bodies and lives.

You do not need answers you cowardly fool. What happened was extremely clear. What you and your colleagues need to do is fight back in every way at your disposal, and then some. Start by promoting immediate impeachment for fascist scum Trump and Noem. Make that the main topic of conversation.

I can't be the first person to complain about this, but Auto-fill when attempting to use search engines is the stupidest fucking thing

No surprise that Israel polled this way given Trump is gleefully helping them conduct their genocide on Palestinians because he wants in on the profits that would be made redeveloping the land for Israeli real estate

“Only voters in Sweden have stronger anti-Trump views than Australians, who believe the president is unable to understand complex problems, not qualified to hold his job, and is unlikely to deal with major issues such as the wars in Ukraine and Gaza.”

Reminder that I AM LATINA AND PROUD. I am the product of immigration - my grandmother was undocumented and entered the country from Mexico as a baby. My mother was a fierce, gorgeous Latina woman of Mexican and Spanish descent.

America has never been broke. It’s just violently anti-poor. Troops in LA cost $134M — the price of 44 million school lunches. But sure, let’s keep pretending the issue is lazy parents and not a government that eats kids for breakfast.

Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet. ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

We feed you. They hunt us.

Everyone saw Grand Park's hot pink benches being stacked into a barricade on Sunday. What an exceptional statement from RIOS, the benches' designers instagram.com/rios.imagines "These pieces were designed to move, adapt, welcome, connect — and now protect"

Saw a political ad with a man saying "It's the most unfair thing in the world..." talking about taxes on a person's wealth when they die. This country is sending US born citizens to a concentration camp in a foreign country without due process and almost no chance of coming home.

Four LAPD officers on horseback surround a man laying on the ground, trample him, and beat him with their polycarbonate "saber" batons.

"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."

Liberals crying ‘don’t give them what they want’ to protestors are actually giving fascists what they want. Fascists don’t need anything to escalate violence but they love liberal permission (the implication protestors provoked this) and passivity.

You *must* swallow your impulse to parse and nitpick and find fault with protestors’ actions right now. We need solidarity so badly. It’s literally all we have. I am begging you, as a mother of 2 kids who is terrified of martial law, to find it in yourself to support the protestors. We need you.

Folks, remember

As an excuse (as if I needed one) to paint MORE of my favourite chapter I decided to adapt them to fit in with The Horus Heresy! So here is my Heresy era Blackshield 'Son of Prism' in all of his mysterious potentially heretical glory!! Hell ye 🌩️🌈 #warhammer #warhammercommunity #thehorusheresy

"It's really hard to fathom that the guy making my pizza for 25 years is a gangster and a terrorist, and the person who shows up in an unmarked car wearing a mask and body armor comes to take him away is somehow the good guy” www.wnep.com/article/news...

This rules for a lot of reasons, but especially because it dispels the myths that A.) old games were never political and B.) games like this are just stories, they aren't "about" anything. Should serve as a reminder to anyone writing about games why we should be close reading 'em.

Kinda sucks being so broke that all of your clothing options aren't flattering. Makes going out in public feel a little embarrassing

They're literally doing the meme
