we are currently living under a fascist government that disappears its own citizens but I would still prefer other countries not to bomb our schools

I can’t recall another politician ever expressing this direct of a sentiment before. (depressing! it’s so simple!) it’s difficult to explain how it feels to wake up and find your country is bombing the place your family grew up. again

Today’s military strikes on Iran β€” carried out by the United States and Israel β€” mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.

i've thought a lot about it and decided the funniest way it could happen would be Biden and Trump on the same day

as far as I can tell, the Trump Mamdani arrangement right now is β€œTrump gives stuff to Mamdani in exchange for photo ops where Mamdani stands stone faced behind him”

Since I caught a block for this, I would just like to make it clear for all future projecting horndogs: It's the Dastardly Tim Onion, or even the Conniving Tim Onion.

brigaded by the vile trolls simply for suggesting the reason people support a female politician is because they want to fuck her

Let's see if we can raise $10,000 today for red state or national queer orgs. Post proof here in the replies that you donated to a red state or national queer organization and I will share.

Who's with me?

(I can't donate myself because I'm a journalist who covers these orgs)

Yeah, absolutely I believe 100% that society will collapse within 20 years. That's why my life plan is:
1) live in a big city
2) specialize in white collar or artistic work
3) cultivate 0 practical skills
