There is no reasoned argument that will return him to sanity. This is not a logical fallacy. This is just insanity.

It's just so terrible when people say something unprovable as though it's fact, and then not only double down but call for action, and maybe even violence, based on lies and propaganda. Who could have possibly foreseen this? WHO, INDEED.

The Hatfields keep blaming the McCoys every time a Hatfield shoots another Hatfield.

Screenshot from "dadandburied" reading: "Guys, I understand the impulse, but actively wishing for someone's death is classless and cruel. The Christian way is to demonize their lifestyle, remove their rights, eliminate their health care, dismantle their social support systems, implement systemic controls to marginalize and disenfranchise them, encourage violence toward their communities. While whitewashing all history of such violence, make examples of anyone who supports or defends them, and then WAIT for them to die! Do better."

Do. Better.

Front of graphic novel - Defiant, the story of Robert Smalls

First pages of the graphic novel defiant. Left page shows a vibrant young black man in a Union uniform. Right page shows a grandfather taking his grandson in a small boat on the water for a day of fishing, reminding him that they'll only keep the fish for dinner and throw the rest back.

New read for the day. I already love it so much.

Thank you for reporting on it. I'm glad you're safe.

You can report this attempted child abduction, a felony (CPC §278.5 PC), to the Office of the Los Angeles County District Attorney, Nathan Hochman, at (213) 974-3512.

“It’s very concerning that ICE is targeting people who actually put their lives on the line for U.S. service members," Zakaria said.

Less than 45 minutes after President Donald Trump thanked the National Guard "for a job well done!" Mayor Karen Bass clarified on social media "the National Guard has not been deployed in the City of Los Angeles."

Ya fuckin' think???

Instead of trying to salvage what worked for the GOP, try coming up with actual ideas to help real people.

This includes unions, healthcare, and equitable access regardless of race, gender, orientation, ability...

We do not allow villains to have redemption arcs at the expense of the vulnerable.

The idea that anyone who thinks they aren't a Nazi is considering "using" him for influence and money shows nothing more than willingness to turn a blind eye to immoral, dangerous behavior for the sake of money.

People matter. Money doesn't. If your party includes Nazis, it's a Nazi party. /2

There is no redemption arc for Musk that includes him being relevant in any way. We do not sit at a table with Nazis.

If he actually wants to change his ways, then he can donate the bulk of his wealth in ways that actually help people, and retire from public life. /1

Glad more people with bigger platforms are standing up and being louder. It isn't perfect but it's better than nothing.

Note: Now that the Pride flag is an official city government flag, many schools and cities across the US with Pride flag bans can now fly it.

Many Pride flag bans have an exception for “city” or “government” flags.

And those exceptions do not specify that they are your local government flag.

Much like scientists fleeing Nazi Germany, I've seen scientists and scholars moving to Canada over the last few months. It's good to see places welcoming of science and scientists. The US will suffer the loss, but at least knowledge will continue to progress globally. (FU, isolationists!)

No. People who support this regime are not "good at the core." They are willing to tolerate/support atrocities. It doesn't matter why they're willing to tolerate atrocities - they won't fight. They won't stand. They can't be trusted. They are not good.

Giving fairy smut a bad name! I'm sure Tapper's book is far worse.

Artists using their platform to shine light on genocide persecuted by British government. Is anyone shocked? Maith sibh, lads.

Autogenocide is a word nerd's word, no doubt. But it is remarkably descriptive of the situation we find ourselves in. Credit to Heather Marsh for "insisting" that this is the right word.

A horse named Journalism won the Preakness yesterday, marking the first time in this regime that journalism hasn't gotten the absolute beat-down.

This is the case where the five small businesses sued Trump over tariffs. The TRO was denied b/c the judges don’t think there will be irreparable harm that happens before the court can consider their preliminary injunction. This isn’t close to over.

Has anyone seen anything about where the girl is or WHO she is????

The image is a screenshot of a social media post by Ron Filipkowski (@RonFilipkowski ). The post reads: "Every time I dipped in he was talking about health care for seniors & disabled, veterans benefits, democracy, tax cuts for billionaires, tariffs, selling out our allies, etc, while doing something this small, petty, weak propagandist could never do physically or intellectually." Below, a post by Stephen Miller (@StephenM ) states: "Corey Booker held the world’s longest filibuster in defense of illegal alien gang members and terrorists. Today’s Democratic Party."

Temu Goebbels says what?

Clippy says: It looks like you're trying to discuss highly sensitive military plans. Would you like to include a journalist in the chat?

I'm tired of winning. I would like to start losing. I'd like to lose Nazis, anti-trans rhetoric, racism, the assault on democracy and the working class, medical debt, housing crises.... Can we just lose all of that?

Such bullshit. I hate that rhetoric. Sounds a lot like "if you'd just do what I tell you, I wouldn't have to hit you." Abusers gonna abuse.

I decided to try to lighten my feed with memes. Searching my memes only results in more political nonsense, so here we are.
