What if an innocent person is executed? The death penalty is absolute caveman nonsense and does nothing for anyone. It does not bring back the dead. HOW’S THAT FOR A HORROR STORY STEVE

This is a gift article so I will pass it on. I am glad I am not in the US. I use many of these words to describe my research on older adults with dementia and the law (eg. disability, mental health, discrimination, etc).

So ICE has effectively disappeared a student for protesting Israel's genocide, separating him from his 8 month pregnant wife. Pure fascism

I am mired in terrifying news every day and this manages to stand out.

Fascism: “Columbia University recently set up an office that is secretly investigating its students for political statements about Israel, Drop Site News reported this week, and is requiring students to sign non-disclosure agreements to view the evidence being brought against them.”

'Super Mario RPG' was released on the Super Famicom 29 years ago today in Japan.

Hi, please consider supporting me through Ko-fi if you enjoy my artwork. I depend on SSI, but I’ve missed payments from them TWICE now… I barely make enough to get by with my current rent. If you have the spare change, please consider donating ;w; ko-fi.com/A3254GC0

Happy International Women's day, with specific love shown to the incredible women who are trans in my life. Without so many of these gals, I would have been lost. The world is enriched by the love and presence of women. xoxoxo

The desexualisation of media (everyone is beautiful, and no one is horny) combined with an increasing hysteria around the 'pointlessness' of sex scenes is a key part of the fascistization of western culture and if we're going to fight back we're going to need to make it normal to be horny again.

unexpected turn of events to see the retro burger joint go full fascist burger and posting nazi dogwhistles. i feel so insane, look at the state of things dawg

This is what your reposts and signal boosts can do for independent artists.

This could be us but etc. etc.

Imagine having a government this stupid

My boyfriend called them “Stink and Ink”, and “Stink” really suits Chalice.

1. Today, powerful speeches from trans representatives in Montana SJ Howell and Zooey Zephyr flipped 29 Republicans, killing anti-trans bills. While some Dems like Newsom abandon trans people, these reps show the power of representation. Watch their speech. Subscribe to support our journalism.

On last night's stream I was talking about Yu-Gi-Oh (as one does) and accidentally said "Yami Yogi." So today instead of doing anything important I felt the need to do this

with all due respect i dont have a lot of patience for this sticker, lol. on my first tv job i got into the same argument with my head writer about why elon was a piece of shit many times, cited why, and was just ignored. because the mf liked his tesla. do your research

Did you know that you can send a fax to Gavin Newsom for free online? faxzero.com/fax_governor...

I am begging you. Writers. Narrative people of all sorts. STOP WRITING POWER FANTASIES INTO YOUR GAME!!! Tell the story of how power can't fix all problems. Tell the story of how anyone can be a hero if they just try. Tell ANY OTHER STORY AT ALL.

1. This morning, California Governor said he was in "complete alignment" with anti-LGBTQ+ hate-influencer Charlie Kirk of TPUSA on transgender sports. He also conceded on trans inmates and gender affirming care for youth. It's so much worse than being reported. Subscribe to support my journalism.

being alive right now is so stupid

look at my awesome thread

al green was the only democrat who did anything worth noting to oppose trump so of course he must be punished for that crime

furry porn has done more for the people than cops: the noble artist who partakes in drawing erotic anthros and is rewarded with patronage from other furry enthusiasts building a strong community vs the guy who wears a badge that legally allows him to kill minorities on the spot

TEXANS! Today, I want you to contact your reps and get in their asses about this issue. They are literally trying to criminalize transgender people.

The problem with Democratic Party is that no one takes them seriously because they don’t take themselves seriously. You can’t simultaneously argue Trump is a fascist intent on destroying democracy but your major response is to wear a pink suit to a speech, and expect to be taken seriously.

also worth reading the transcript of the first time hiv/aids was ever acknowledged by the reagan admin, via then-press secretary larry speakes

ronald reagan was an evil man and anyone who has a positive thing to say about him is my enemy. www.artic.edu/artworks/152...

Sesame Street really tells the story of America: - Created for PBS to educate young (especially Black!) children - Becomes a beloved institution cherished by the entire country - Gets privatized and kicked to premium cable due to budget cuts - Unionization leads to mass layoffs What a country!

Gay rights doesn’t affect your shitty lives at all you fucking ghouls.

Kingsley Wilson, the newly-appointed DoD Deputy Press Secretary, believes in a thoroughly-debunked antisemitic conspiracy theory. I've mostly only seen this theory promoted by mask-off neo-Nazis. archive.is/dPvse
