A white box on a yellow background. It’s a submission page for Play date. It says:

β€œThat's all. Thank you very much!!

You should get an email confirming that we got your submission. And thanks.”

A purple button under the previous text says β€œTurtles”.

It really is fascinating how overt it now is that there are certain - really not controversial - ideas that you aren’t allowed to say on television.

'Abolish ICE' among winners in Chicago's 'You Name a Snowplow' contest

Snowplows named "Abolish ICE," "Caleb Chilliams" and "Pope FrΓ­o XIV" are coming to the Chicago streets after winning city's "You Name a Snowplow" contest.

An ICE agent shot and killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a US citizen and San Antonio resident, in March 2025. Then ICE and the Texas Department of Public Safety covered it up. He was 23 years old. I am calling for a full investigation into this shooting, including why there was an 8-month cover up.

Not to continue stirring up negativity, but it's so depressing how many people are still following this AI "pixel artist"

Not to get political, but America is very pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and I think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time

ICE does not need more training. They’re doing exactly what they’re trained to do.

Democrats cannot vote for a single cent to ICE.
