Male announcer for the women’s USA-Canada hockey game saying β€œtoo many men” penalty immediately after his female counterpart stated β€œtoo many players on the ice” felt intentional.

Could you imagine if a female announcer said, β€œtoo many women on the ice” for a men’s game? Pronouns matter. Do better.

Yeah… fascists aren’t patriots, and they clearly no longer care. The problem is, there are a hell of a lot more so-called patriots who are complicit in their silence. Patriots actively fight fascism, not rollover and wait for it to eventually go away. America needs active, aggressive anti-fascists.

I’ve been a naturalized citizen of the United States for over 49 of my 51 years on this planet. No fucking way I’m letting some bullshit fascists take away my Constitutionally protected right to vote. The SAVE act is unapologetically anti-American, racist, misogynist, and classist. Just like Trump.

ICE was flawed from day one... born out of post-9/11 fear and built on policies that blurred national security with domestic control. Some systems don’t need reform. They need to be abolished.

Masked thugs on the streets.
Measles outbreaks across the nation.
Blatant government corruption.
Coverup of group of elite sex offenders.
Ruling party trying to rig elections.
Leader building grandiose monuments to himself.
Collapse of remnants of nonpartisan civil service.

Third world America.

Clients requested I return to FB, a year after I had deleted my account, since that’s where they could be most easily found. I was swiftly reminded of what a cesspool it is, and am already wanting to delete my new account less than 30 days into the experiment. Where’s Tom when you need him…

Know this. This intentional and strategic. They want every protester to know that they can be β€œjustifiably” murdered for recording their illegal actions using their cell phone. This is a very intentional action on their part to terrorize us further and force us into submission.

Do. Not. Back. Down.

The most enlightening and disappointing thing to come out of this ICE shooting is that the right legitimately does not give a fuck about human life if it harms their political narrative.

Watching people malign a 37 year old mother for being murdered by her country is insane.

Can't help but feel like this is one of the reasons why the Constitution says If a dude in office does an insurrection, don't let that motherfucker hold office again

Bc clearly they cannot be trusted with power & control over the levers of government, & they do not care about democratic constraints

Nearly all the staff in the Office of Special Education have been fired as part of Trump’s sweeping layoffs.

These are the people responsible for protecting the civil rights of students with disabilities and ensuring they receive an equal education.

More needless cruelty on display.

There’s plenty of suck in the world these days.

We need more of this.

Hope it made things suck less, if only for a moment.

Nothing like celebrating independence by firing off $1,000 of Chinese fireworks, while loudly complaining about the price of gas, while simultaneously triggering every soldier with PTSD within a 5 mile radius, not to mention the neighborhood pets, and oh yeah… the actual neighbors AmericanAsApplePie
