It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

This really makes it sound like a Border Patrol agent tried to kill an anti-ICE activist in Chicago and DHS lied to cover for him

I, too, find Jesus Christ and Charlie Kirk to be similar, though in very different ways than a conservative might...

Robin Williams' daughter has some quality thoughts on AI slop

Actually, I think getting plugged was the issue to begin with.

One other thing I wanted to say is that, unless what I write is about trans issues, few people end up reading it. So shares and quote posts are very appreciated.

Weird thing where people say “no one could have predicted it” when really what they mean is their political commitments and orientation were such that they ignored everyone who was predicting it

Sorry but “no one could have“ and you having your head stuck up your ass are two different situations

#GrumpyPolitics This is why you draw your own personal line ahead of time. What is your personal line in the sand? It's going to vary for everyone, but if you don't draw it, you don't know.

Draw your line in the sand, and make a plan for what you are going to do if someone crosses it.

I just want a silly microblogging platform where no nazis are allowed. Why is this so hard?*

(*cry-laughs in 2025)

imagine if trans people didn't need to beg for their fucking lives constantly and instead we could just be funny and hot and go to sleep at night without worrying about what threat morning will bring

A tracking map, showing progress of the Global Sumud Flotilla toward Gaza. 13 vessels show as being intercepted. At least 2 dozen show as still sailing.

2 dozen vessels in the Global Sumud Flotilla still sail toward Gaza. Dawn will arrive for them in about an hour.

It's midnight. We are officially in a government shutdown.

No clean CR was passed. Congress moves on to negotiating during what could be a protracted closure.

Thank you all for calling to let them know that whatever gets negotiated, anti-LGBTQ provisions cannot be in the final appropriations bill.

ICYMI: I wrote about why it's impossible to compromise with conservatives on trans issues. They've already rejected the common sense compromise positions and lie about us anyway.

a bald eagle with a yellow arm is standing in front of an american flag .. Alt: a bald eagle with a cartoon yellow arm is standing in front of an american flag, he salutes and puts on sunglasses. A caption says 'merica.

I've always loved Big Brother. All the posts I'm liking are just so I can report all these thoughtcriminals to the thoughtpolice with specificity, you see.

No step on this, very patriotic, snake.

regardless of the details I think it’s important to spin the Kimmel thing as a win

Trump is weak, he’s unpopular, he massively overreached and inspired enough of a revolt that Disney had to backtrack immediately

he wants to paint himself as an all-powerful dictator, paint him as a loser who sucks

I know it's hard to do but you have to tune out the constant & I mean constant torrent of criticisms on social media re: activism & organizing. If you don't, it can stop you from trying to do any activism or organizing. Most of the critics aren't doing any organizing themselves so keep trying things

Welcome to Hell! Let's Walk Through It Together I suppose here is where I introduce this newsletter and why I've started it. Quite frankly, I've felt left out from the newsletter game over the years, despite my presence on Patreon. This is not mean...

My @theflytrapmedia.com comrade @katelynburns.com just started her own newsletter, Burns Notice! Go subscribe!

I used to hate "If You Give A Mouse A Cookie" because I thought it was anti-welfare

But I am coming around to this alternative political reading

Stargate (1994)

You're not alone. It's pure gaslighting. There was nothing, they just WANT to take offense.

Hope is a well tended fire at the center of the maelstrom. It doesn't address the storm, but it makes it clearer to see and gives us enough to survive to see the clouds part and light to return.

(Dirty) birds of a feather...

A Congresswoman calls for everyone like me to be locked up. The world's richest man proposes I be subject to a Nazi medical experiment. I no longer flinch at the sight of the soldiers with assault rifles on my commute. A billboard for AI tells me "keep thinking." One cold brew with oat milk, please

Imagine if Bob Saget or Alfonso Riberio were ceo of FB instead of Zuck.

Yes. Charlie Kirk hated empathy, so don't insult his memory by feeling bad that he's dead

All these people he probably considered friends. So so so so happy he got shot. They just can't wait to use this.
