One of the most miserable things about living in this era is having to watch the stupidest & most arrogant people in the world have to relearn The Why of literally everything good that we collectively do the hard way.

The answer is always β€˜Because a bunch of people died, fuckwit.’

Jack Duffy attaches a respirator to his bagpipes to play through tear gas. β€œI always play it whenever the police retreat because it's like, β€˜You fucking ran while we stayed,’” he says.

Bad Bunny performance so disrespectful, did he not know where he was performing? Singing a song about New York in California, disgraceful

If reading these letters doesn’t fill you with a deep and urgent need to burn these concentration camps to the ground after releasing their prisoners, you would’ve been on the wrong side in WWII.

The choice to frame this rhetorically as a negotiation *with ICE and DHS* rather than, you know, a decision about their future made by their rightful superiors in the popularly elected legislature is, to me, incredibly grating.

I feel like part of being a surgeon and why they get the big bucks is being the one who makes the decisions, not a jumped up spellcheck.

Snippet from the linked post.

β€œUltimately, if they’re [a shooter] still intent on murdering children, then we can escalate further,” said Justin Marston, CEO of Campus Guardian Angel. β€œWhen we think about it, it’s less militarizing than having police officers carrying guns everywhere.”

In what fucking world is this school shooter drone system less militarized than cops?? Where do ppl think these get tested / come from??

They can go 100mph, fly through double-paned glass, play a deafening siren, launch pepper spray bombs, hit a body at 60mph

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Trump administration removes Rainbow Flag from Stonewall National Monument The Trump administration removed a large Rainbow Flag from a flagpole at the Stonewall National Monument, the National Park Service confirmed to Gay City News

They have now removed the Pride flag from the Stonewall Inn.

Erasure. Just like the Nazis.

the primary reason rightwingers will never control culture is because everything they do is hinged upon it being a reaction to the broader culture. the TPUSA half time event would not exist without it being a representation of their grievences

YouTube just terminated PlainSite's YouTube channel, which posted certain Epstein Files video directly as provided by the government, because doing so purportedly violated YouTube's "spam, deceptive practices and scams" policy.

For real. Providing the Epstein Files is a "scam" according to Google.

I've read his books. The second one reveals him an idiot. He writes about engineering projects without understanding any of the methodology or how what he describes is not some funny anecdotes, but hair raising horrors. He's to rocket science reporting what Musk is to the Toyota method.
