Cowards die many times before their deaths,
The valiant never taste of death but once.

Schumer would sell his soul to the devil for a box of Cheezits and a promise that Satan will totally think about torturing him less.

THEY PEPPER SPRAYED A BABY

Please read this entire excellent piece by Caroline, which points out that a judge ordered the Feds (again) to stop doing **this exact kind of thing** and they are still continuing to do it all over Chicago

HE'S APPEALING TO THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES THAT HE BE ALLOWED TO STARVE AMERICANS

Calling these goons pathetic losers to their face is an act of patriotism.

This is the very best thing about jury nullification, and you have to read it BEFORE you get called to jury duty.

a couple years ago i contracted with one of subway's ad agencies for a small rotating sandwiches collab that ultimately they decided not to publish and i never did anything with. today feels like a good day to post one of them. here's my favorite subway sandwich, the veggie delight

if u do not have anything nice to say well sometimes u are not wrong

It really is fucking crazy making that Trump is doing the fake Obama scandals for real:

✅ sending IRS after enemies
✅ jade helm
✅ shitting on the voters of the other party
✅ playing favorites with corporations
✅ cozying up to Russia

The president thinks federal goons haven’t been violent *enough* with the American people.

The president seems to hope that his thugs will kill someone soon.

anthropomorphic clock being threatened by figures with an axe and a hammer, caption reads SMASH YOUR CLOCKS! ending time opens all possibilities

PSA

The disparities in the medical care available to these two hypothetical teenagers is transphobia. There is absolutely no reason why they should be treated differently.

If your newspaper is giving Donald Trump softer headlines and gauzier coverage than People Magazine, that should be a bit of a wake up call.

If you're in line to bat at Game 7 of the World Series STAY IN LINE

I maintain that every one of these people should be forced to live on SNAP for a month.

Don’t Stream Fascism: Cancel Spotify

If you are still using Spotify, time to stop. @indivisible.org leading a nationwide boycott because Spotify runs ICE ads. indivisible.org/cancel-spotify

Please do *not* circulate this story that the NC GOP does not want circulated.

Please, they have threatened you nicely, please.

Trying to blame the Dems cutting off SNAP (while sitting on billons of available contingency funds) as his boss bulldozes the WH to build a ball room like Saddam's palace, sends $40 billion to bail out Argentines, and eats "gold adorned" brownies in Korea is not gonna work.

I'm going to start a new political party. It's called Shut The Fuck Up and Feed People.

"But what if they're on drugs?"

Shut The Fuck Up And Feed People

"Or not really THAT poor?"

Shut The Fuck Up And Feed People

"What if they have a phone and nice nails?"

SHUT THE FUCK UP AND FEED PEOPLE

I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been “immigrants go home.”

It would have been “get your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”

Me: *takes bite of cucumber* You know, I'm somewhat of a cucumber farmer myself.

Wife: What? No you're not.

Me: Well, I own shares in a farm.

Wife: When did you buy shares in a cucumber farm?

Me: *Holds up cucumber* This. This is my share.

this is the maddest a pope has been since they had armies

Not only is it going to be a hunger crisis, it's going to be a farm crisis. All those gallons of milk bought from dairy farmers, all the produce, all the on sale ground beef and packs of chicken that are paid for by SNAP are subsidies to farmers who don't qualify for commodities subsidies.

Marie Antoinette ass timeline.

Nobody wants this shit, which is why they keep sneaking it onto our devices like some unwanted U2 album.

Standing there insisting this is all somehow Democrats' fault because they won't support *your* budget -- a budget that explicitly wages war on Democratic constituencies and Democratic programs -- when you refuse to negotiate or compromise at all is just ludicrously laughably stupid.

A year or two ago, I started keeping a list of cases where attorneys had been disciplined for submitting court documents with fake AI-generated filings. Figured it would be a short-lived phenomenon as attys became aware

I had to stop, because the number is growing faster than I could keep up

i like that we know the ICE fitness standards now because now we all know exactly how fast we need to be able to run to be just slightly faster than any given ICE agent. a useable training goal

worth reiterating again that “the executive can raise and spend money however he likes” has been anathema even under monarchies for centuries

we’re not rolling back anything in US history here, we’re rolling back the English Civil War

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?
