From the tempest fury, the spark ignites! He/him. Stealing the golden disk to go back in time and stop humanity evolving doesn't seem so bad now, does it?

I moderate a subreddit and it's truly impressive the number of transphobes with no previous history with the community show up the moment someone makes a post in support of trans people, and then complain about being banned for "expressing an opinion." No wait, pathetic. Pathetic is what I meant.

Exactly right. There is a vast corpus of guidance and soft law on managing peaceful protests responsibly, including a practical toolkit for law enforcement by former @unsrapporteurfoaa.bsky.social Clement Voule: www.ohchr.org/en/documents...

fascist trash.

Glendale withdraws from ICE immigrant detainee agreement. another logistical hit to ICE

Bravo, Glendale. Bravo. More, please. And it's time for Democrats to loudly say, "Abolish ICE." Someone please stand up and have a spine.

Huh!

Waymo stands for “way mo’ of us on fire these days”

You know, if the President is trying to lie and say LA is a war zone, this is a situation where going to brunch and posting about how nice of a time you had is a kind of resistance

I do wonder how much of this is oddly personal. Miller grew up in Santa Monica. He was a contrarian High Schooler, who made creating controversy is persona. If he's going to make a big deal of ICE raids "LA" is the area he knows, and he's got something to prove.

“The disinformation machine I built is spreading fake news about me!!! Not fair!!!!”

congratulations assholes, you’ve bullied Gavin into getting off his right wing podcast circuit and back to pretending to care about his constituents again that’s a hell of a fuckup on your part

This is the way to get white suburban people to look at the cops differently, and I’m dead serious. Fundraising for the homeless taught me that if you want to raise funds you have to somehow make it about dogs - they don’t give a fuck about people, not really.

Watch the slow motion: it appears to me that the officers discuss the photographer and reporter before the one on the end fires on them (it looks to me like he's aiming at the camera, not the reporter, but you decide)

This happened during the first administration when it was saying Seattle was a war zone but I was in Seattle at the time and the most chaotic thing was a barista couldn’t get my name right on my Starbucks cup.

I encourage any ICE agent to quit and find a completely different line of work!

If liberals are attacking me for demonstrating an obvious right-wing bias and conservatives are attacking me on the basis of some crazed conspiracy theory they read about on 8chan, then both sides are attacking me so I must be doing something right.

Notably better than Newsom.

We might call this American Exception-ism.

In today’s update, their social media manager deleted their reddit account and the CEO, the one with the Make FPS Great Again hat, put out a video blaming an ex-Call of Duty dev for why the game had a $145 skin bundle (but was marked down to $80) which is now $80 (marked down to $40 with the sale)

Give the photographer the Pulitzer Prize

The illegitimate, lawless, and authoritarian regime in control of the government of the United States is at war with the people of the United States.

Thread!

Best possible outcome: He kills Trump's bill, and then Trump kills all his launches.

You ever see a meme that’s just So Dumb but you love it with all your heart and it brings joy throughout your day?

I wish there was a Magical Girl Show where they tackle Problems like Union busting, wage theft, The Rental Crisis, police corruption etc. Good Luck #LA

Perhaps Newsom should have spent less time chumming around with authoritarian buffoons on his podcast and more time preparing and strategizing for the entirely predicable thing that is happening in his state right now.

Anyone saying, with any seriousness, that there is rioting in Los Angeles gets an immediate block. Trust me, if LA was rioting, you would know.

The spin has already started as if our entire city is in chaos. I went from Burbank all the way over to Koreatown on surface streets tonight and jackshit was happening. The CNN coverage makes it look like world war 3 and that’s what Trump wants so he and his fucking goons can come shoot Angelenos.

Boston Mayor Compares ICE to Neo-Nazi Group: 'There Are Other Groups That Routinely Wear Masks.’ Michelle Wu added Boston police officers do not wear masks because they "have nothing to hide.” www.latintimes.com/boston-mayor...

People like me keep trying to tell you: "Free Speech" can get REALLY costly if a civilization trying to have it doesn't also 'manage' the stupidity and cruelty of its worst, eh... "people," like this Miller thing:

Putin assassinated the oligarchs who crossed him. Could Trump do the same thing to Elon Musk?

"So here's the plan -- we impose massive tariffs on the nations that sell us food." "Hmm." "But it's OK, because we just rely more on states like California that grow a lot of the same things." "Oh, I guess that ..." "And then we go to war with California."

My take on the "Superman vs Goku" debate is that Superman probably wouldn't be as eager to fight as Goku is. But "Superman vs Goku...in a cookie eating contest" would be a very heated battle.

God, just imagine if California had a real governor in place right now, what a leader that person could emerge as in the fight against American fascism. Maybe they can borrow one from Washington or Oregon.

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

Stephen Miller had the cojones to call the ICE protests in Los Angeles, an “insurrection.” So, I am just going to remind everyone what an actual insurrection looks like.
