Two questions: are you fucking kidding me and are they staffing?

David Axelrod Warns Democrats Not to Campaign on Abolishing ICE: β€˜People Believe You Should Come to the Country Legally’ Democratic strategist David Axelrod warned Democrats against pushing for ICE to be abolished in their campaigns, following multiple shootings in Minneapolis.

I disagree with Axelrod. β€œAbolish ICE” is not β€œdefund the police.” Defund the police was stupid & wrong. But Americans don’t view ICE as law enforcement. They view ICE as masked thugs who are the antithesis of law enforcement & who have no place here. Abolish ICE is πŸ’― the correct thing to say & do.

I love all the Star Trek episodes that are wild swings like this and Sub Rosa, and think they are actually better than episodes like Voyager's "Cathexis" or DS9's "Dramatis Personae"

This is also why a ten-episode season is wayyyyyyyyyyyy too short

We should celebrate β€œThreshold” because spectacular misfires like that means that the writers are taking chances that lead to a β€œCause & Effect” or a β€œFrame of Mind.”

Make creators afraid of β€œThreshold” and all your bad eps will be dull drivel like β€œNight Terrors”

kids' worlds are small. their backpack is an essential character in their life. having that ripped away and his questions about where it went is the perfect illustration of the way in which he understands the injustice being done upon him.

his backpack is gone. where is it? why did they take it?

my son is five, same age as Liam Ramos. you don't need to have a child the same age to be fucking horrified by the violence we are doing (and HAVE BEEN doing) upon immigrant children in this nation. but that he keeps asking for his spidey backpack is the kind of detail that rips my heart in two.

The translation for "yub nub" is actually "freedom."

If you’re on the fence about seeing MELANIA but you’re really busy, contact the theater. Tell them your availability and they’ll work around it

Also terrible knowing that the distributor is anti-physical media, so this poor artist won’t even get a physical copy of his work. And we are all poorer for being unable to buy it

Graphic Text: The people ICE grabbed up, the people they shot, are not threats to you and me. They are not the violent criminals that Trump promised to go after. These are our neighbors, they are our friends, they are our colleagues. The people who treat us when we are sick.

No one is made safer by ICE snatching up our neighbors, our friends, or our colleagues.

Fuck all the way off, and then fuck off a little further, just keep going and fucking off until you're completely out of fucking off space and then fuck off just a tiny bit further.

ICYDK, publishing is in a decline. Many authors who have had dependable contracts in the past are now scrambling to make ends meet and seeing lower advances and fewer sales than ever. If you see lots of book publicity posts, it's because we're scared and trying to keep our jobs during The Horrors.

A legal asylum-seeker who works at Chipotle and plays music at a church in Maine went missing. His pastor searched and searched, eventually finding his abandoned car with the keys on the floor.

ICE grabbed him. No criminal record. No explanation.

It's so weird that some Democrats in Congress still don't understand that their voters hate ICE. You can see the pure shock on their faces like a cartoon character who just walked off a cliff and suddenly realized gravity exists.

OMG on a forum yesterday people were having a beef with Starfleet Academy and Kurtzman because the Academy set has stairs. And apparently β€œreal” Star Trek doesn’t have stairs? Just the dumbest stuff ever to complain about.

Yep. And their weird parasocial hate hit a wild level a few years back when people excited for the TNG reunion in PICARD were attacked, told they shouldn’t be β€œtricked” into championing any current series because it would save him from being fired.

I’m sorry, but hating a creative that much is nuts

Trek fans are among the worst at picking a creative and demonizing him personally so his name becomes synonymous with everything wrong about the franchise. It was so bad, Braga took heat for INSURRECTION and NEMESIS, two films he didn’t even work on!

Anne Frank was killed in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp by epidemic typhus, a virus spread by human body lice in conditions where people cannot bathe and change clothes.

This new account from a Texas concentration camp shows the Trump regime is setting up conditions where typhus will thrive.

I think the ep deserves its reputation but Brannon Braga has written so many amazing Star Treks that anyone who shits on his work and uses this to do it is an ignorant asshole with very stupid opinions

This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for β€œillegals trying to vote.”
