Because pandering to right wing nutjobs has gone so well in the US. It *totally* didn't completely alienate the extremely milquetoast base so bad that every outlet that tried it immediately started hemorrhaging viewers/subscribers while utterly failing to pick up any of the dumbfuck fascists. 🤦♀️

of the card section so they had to dedicate an endcap back in the toys for sone of the larger/bulkier boxes. And the Facebook Marketplace was absolutely loaded with unsold stock. And now it's like stereotypical Black Friday chaos everywhere whenever any shows up. Just complete insanity. 🤦♀️

Everyone randomly going cuckoobananas over Pokemon cards again is so weird. Like you couldn't find cards of any kind during lockdown, but after they ended, there was a solid 12-18 months where Pokemon cards were just not selling at all. The local Target had so much that it was crowding out the rest

Pretty much all the people I follow who are actually in LA are actively showing videos of loud and large protests that are themselves utterly non-violent...only the when the LAPD and ICE show up do things actually become dangerous and all that danger stems exclusively from the "law enforcement".

Before we begin, some housekeeping:
Salute to the community in LA standing on business this weekend to protect their people from state violence and abduction. If you've got it to give, please consider pitching in on a bail fund: www.communityjusticeexchange.org/en/nbfn-dire...

If you want to understand more about why the LA protests look and function like they do today, do some reading on the Watts Uprising, the Rodney King riots, Mexican history in LA, and Chicano activism.

Be wary of people sitting comfortably in their armchairs insisting they know the best way to protest in a region they don't live in that has a history they don't understand.

Those troops are the national guard, many of whom may be Californian, or Mexican American. They aren't faceless soldiers, they're real people with real connections to this place. The LA protests are a lot of things, but social media is where nuance goes to die, so here we are.

Also, the protestors in LA aren't facing off against US troops. They're doing battle against LAPD and LASD, for the most part. The history of Los Angelenos of color in conflict with local law enforcement is also long and complicated, with a lot of tensions still boiling from 1992.

What is happening in LA right now isn't the same as the United Farmworkers protests of half a century ago, so to use that as a cudgel to tone police is disingenuous at best. People are proud of their heritage and proud to defend the rights of people in this country those aren't mutually exclusive.

Thank you & please continue to not engage with me whenever I'm *in a mood* like the other morning & start openly acknowledging where we're at and what will unfortunately have to be done to fix things, capisce. 😘

During the soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia locals took down road signs and if soldiers asked how to get to XYZ location they were given directions back to Moscow.
My friends most highway road signs have a 3/4” nut with a carriage bolt and a good socket wrench costs $15.

I think it’s key to internalize that protest can be visible and it can be disruptive but it does not necessarily need to be visible to be disruptive.

It is what it is. The reign of terror is either stopped in its tracks or we all get trampled to death under it. Sorry for being brutally honest/blunt about reality as it stands, I guess. But things are fucking dire and the villains so brazenly evil it's cartoonish. The situation isn't complicated.

This has to end. The obscenely rich must be brought to justice and/or vengeance, and I don't think anyone struggling really cares all that much about which end the rat-fucking-bastards get at this point. Just that it happens.

It really fucking sucks, but well... This is the state of the country/world in the middle of 2025. If heads having to roll is the only way unfuck everything enough to give all us regular schmucks any hope of ever having a fair shot, then I guess so be it.

I'm tired, bud. They've all already proven themselves to nothing but a bunch of leeches on society who make the world a measurably worse place. At some point maybe you just gotta take away all of their power & make sure they're never allowed to hurt anyone ever again, by whatever means is necessary.

New — Marcelo Gomes da Silva has finally been released from ICE detention where the 18-year-old was held in deplorable conditions. He helped translate paperwork for other detainees that said they were getting deported. Unimaginable.
