i hate to be on my usual fucking bullshit but it really needs to be said that these are rape threats.
they also stripped her and filmed her.
I dunno if Anna Applebaum is the person I would look to for peace information.
It’s wild I can’t even count how many shutdowns I’ve lived to see and I’m not even 40 yet.

I SNEEZED REALLY VIOLENTLY AND THIS IS THE LOOK SHE GAVE ME IM CRYING
A victim of the shooting at the ICE facility is UNCONSCIOUS, in critical care, may not survive, his wife is about to give birth, and ICE IS KEEPING HIM SHACKLED TO HIS HOSPITAL BED:
I just unlocked a new level of rage.

Hey, not trying to distract from the EpsteinElonTrump files of it all, but we gotta talk about the electricity bills - specifically in NY - bc they are absolutely making us all collectively foot the bill for the electricity and resources that go into the Data Centers here.
Poor Ezra Klein. He is clearly not prepared for this moment.
I’m so mad at him but listening to this podcast w/ Coates, I realize I feel sorry for Klein, too.
Coates—and other Black folks— see Klein’s lack of moral imagination, but Klein can’t see what’s wrong.
I am sure New Yorkers are going to respond really well to blackmail. The city’s people are notorious for loving to be told what to do.
Shut it down. Shut it all fucking down. Trump has the losing hand here & he knows it, so he's trying to blame his shitty shutdown on the dolls, hoping spineless dems will sacrifice them on the altar of civility.
Fuck anyone who crosses to help him. Fuck them and primary them and hassle them to Hell
I really miss the 1990s.
i'll take "duh, it was going to lead to soulless, exhausting, and time-consuming proofing for everyone" for 1000 please
got raptured earlier but asked to be allowed to return when i was informed the first ten seasons of American Dad are not available in heaven
Why spend $650 on a system with no games when you could buy 650 hot dogs instead
Kimmel’s back—proof that public pressure can make a difference. But folks in our region won’t be able to watch tonight because KOMO’s owner, Sinclair, refuses to air the show on its ABC stations.
It’s corporate cowardice to censor programming just because the president doesn’t like it.
also, all angels are autists
I missed the autism announcement are we getting autism 2? Is it on switch??
Hey, so I’d rather have a bunch of autistic kids running around and living their lives than dead kids from school shootings, not being vaccinated, abuse or any of the other easily fixable threats facing children today. Go ahead and jot that down if you need to.
Every time you hear "without capitalism, nothing would get done," remember... capitalism didn't invent work, it invented wage-dependence. Humans built cities, farms, and art before payrolls and quarterly reports existed.
The image is a political cartoon depicting a faucet labeled "Recognition of Palestine." Water is flowing from the faucet, and several hands are reaching under it, attempting to wash off blood. The sleeves of the arms are labeled with the names of countries: U.K., France, Canada, and Australia. The hands and arms appear to be stained with red, symbolizing blood.
It’ll never wash off
Some personal news:
I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting.

My favorite Robert Redford acting trick is that he would clip off the end of a line the audience already knew the end of, pause as if thinking, then start the next line as if he was interrupting himself. It's why his acting feels so naturalistic. He feels improvised while not shitting on the script.
Robert Redford playing a gentle incarnation of death, coming for a frightened old woman in The Twilight Zone episode "Nothing in the Dark" (1962). An extraordinary performance then, terribly bittersweet today
@stutterbox.bsky.social Hey um…did YT remove your account? I was in the middle of watching the latest vid and got a message that the video wouldn’t play bc the account doesn’t exist anymore??? If so, the homophobia is wild

Post of mine where I write, the suspected Charlie Kirk shooter has been identified as 22 year old Tyler Robinson from Utah very little in his family socials other than that Tyler was very online and dressed up on Halloween specifically to emulate this meme And then attach a Facebook photo of the shooter doing a slav squat in a track suit and a meme of a pepe doing the same squat in the same outfit
A post by me saying: Will this turn out to be "left" or "right" wing in motivation? It's still too early to say! But this is clear evidence of the time we've stepped into as a country. Domestic terrorism is going to look more like this going forward than the attacks of yesteryear.
Post from a user called Canadian Curated calling me out for not saying if the shooter was right or left wing by posting the same pepe slav squat meme and Halloween photo of the shooter I uploaded originally.
Disinformation: a play in 3 acts
A lot of folks need to learn that if you're talking to people who won't take accountability when presented with their own mistakes, attempting to reason with them about things they may have gotten wrong is a futile endeavor from the start.
