ICE agent at a workplace raid: “you guys understand we have a signed warrant to be here” Worker: “And here’s my bag of f*cks”

holy shit some things just hit so much better with a strong Southern accent

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

@msnbc.com reporter at the 1:15 mark. “The chaos you’re seeing is not the result of peaceful protestors, it’s the result of actions of law enforcement, specifically the Los Angeles sheriff’s department.” #nokings

No movie tonight unfortunately...and I gotta crash out. But on the good side, I managed to get the flats and shadows in, so hooray team

Hey look a Dodger with courage

I think fan communities are realyl important to the ecosystem of entertainment because it helps keep the companies honest

Watched an episode of "Punch Punch Forever!" on YouTube and was immediately recommended "Elf 17", which is exactly the kind of madcap, trashy, anything-goes, golden-age-of-OVAs anime PPF is homaging. www.youtube.com/watch?v=keUw...

here's the thing... Abolish ICE.

An underappreciated explanation for antitrump politicians’ behavior is that they fear assassination. The more they stand for something, the more death threats they receive. Sometimes they come true. Political systems can’t withstand a constant threat of violence.

Melissa Hortman, who was assassinated last night, was the Speaker of the Minnesota House in the 2023-2024 session, when Democrats ran the state government. That means she had a leading role in shepherding the many landmark reforms that Dems adopted in that period—an important legacy. Brief 🧵.

MSNBC reporter on ground in LA right now saying that from what he has seen the protestors have been peaceful but the LA Sheriff’s Dept in particular has been off the chain, quick to use tear gas and rubber bullets in an exceedingly aggressive manner

From today's protest in Chicago.

Anyone who has ever lived in LA county will not be surprised it was the sheriff's department that escalated

When following political news I think it's important to focus on the things that make a difference, or teach us something, and not find ourselves just staring at whatever item is the greatest spectacle. …But, I still would like to see an extended journalistic treatment of the events in this thread.

Not really important right now, but I think I kinda understand bruce timm a little better now when I think of him in the context of harvey kurtzman

On protests, peaceful until police start committing violence Link 1 of 3 (thread): bsky.app/profile/zoeq... Link 2 of 3 (thread): bsky.app/profile/zoeq... Link 3 of 3 (post): bsky.app/profile/jord...

Sitting here, ID’ing M.U.S.C.L.E./Kinnikuman and just came across “Canadian Man”.

Gotta frame that last repost

I agree with this. Most people I know who are good at anything try hard. youtube.com/shorts/xTpBY...

Played Kunio-kun basketball with friends tonight. Dunking through three baskets stacked on top of each other and stealing the opponents basket off of their backboard so they can't score anymore kicks ass. Fantastic game.

This framing is just malpractice from what was very recently one of the two greatest papers in America

Moro Rogers's Human Capital is badly in need of support. It's at 27% with seven days left. The hook here is pretty nice: NTTL IS AN ARTIST. UNFORTUNATELY FOR HIM, IN THE FUTURE: EVERYONE IS AN ARTIST. I would like to read this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0VR...

Feel like I'm learning a lot about LA right now

Just stumbled on this amazing painter over on FB, probably promoted because it's Pride Month. @anthonyhurd.bsky.social Anthony Hurd. Fantastic stuff. Absolute brilliant palettes. I've never been much for Western art but his cowboys are alive :)

The great @rasjbaraka.bsky.social, mayor of Newark, speaks at the Newark #NoKings rally in the rain. This is the man who was arrested by ICE at the Delaney Hall detention facility. He spoke about the need for ALL of us to stand up for ALL of us.

Watching the live feed in LA rn, movie's stopped
