Reminder: the First Amendment protects everyone who resides in our country. It doesn't matter if you have a green card or a visa or if you're undocumented. The Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed that any person residing in the United States, regardless of status, is entitled to 1A protections.

DEMOCRATS:

You are committing a historic error right now. The federal government is collapsing and you are paralyzed. You seem unable to even address half the stuff that's happening because it does fit into your pre-fab vision of what good political rhetoric sounds like. You are failing America.

“bluesky is an echo chamber” everywhere’s an echo chamber i’m going with the one without cybertruck guys

Deus vult’ began as a rallying cry for the Crusades. More recently, it’s been adopted by the far right. And we’re not even supposed to wonder/ask why it’s tattooed on the arm of the next defense secretary?

POLIO IS CONQUERED newspaper headline

Sigh.

It’s 2:45 pm and the sun is setting and I find that personally offensive.

i tolerated the center-tacking campaign because fuck it, what do i know, big threat, want to win, whatever works, but these bigoted little goons don't get to pretend that trans people were running the "look at our friend liz cheney" campaign

I think it’s a crime that museum lock-ins are for kids only. I wanna sleep under a dinosaur skeleton too!!!

Me every time a new person is announced on that man’s team.
