Who's gonna get the Kickstarter going to make posters of this badboy? Let's plaster the land with them!

I feel like this could be titled Effect and Cause. Cause? Penis rocket boy’s wedding. Effect? Democratic socialist mayor. Good job @nytimes.com, good job.

The Incredibly Stupid, Self-Defeating Democratic Panic about Zohran Mamdani Whether you like him or not, the campaign to defeat Mamdani reeks of everything people hate about politics

@danpfeiffer.bsky.social gets it. I don’t care who you vote for, as long as it’s not Cuomo

THIS JUST HAPPENED: Brad Lander walked through the fire, got burned, and came back with a fucking gasoline can.

ICE arrested him β€” now he’s escorting migrants right past them, again. Most politicians wouldn’t show up. He showed out.

Reading this, I couldn't help but recall how the editorial board stated a few months ago that they'd be publishing fewer pieces, and devote more space to columns and op-eds. They really should have stuck to that plan.

Was also thinking of "There's gonna be an even bigger parade when your big fat fascist ass is gone" and "This sign is too small to list all ways Trump is a pathetic weak little pansy boy."

The kids had fun doing the crown though, so l've shelved those ideas for later. #nokings

The Trump Administration broke the law when it condemned an innocent man to a violent foreign prison, and now it’s breaking the law again by not even trying to bring him home.

The Supreme Court gave an order to return Mr. Abrego Garcia back to the US.

This isn’t a negotiation.

Edit: It’s been pointed out to me that the message is basically something like, β€œGay people are saying we will outlast you, Weimar America,” which is valid, I guess.

Chalk it up to a visceral reaction to seeing the word faggot in my neighborhood.

Big black sharpie came out of retirement today. Torn about what annoys me more: the evil of the message, or the fact that it’s incomprehensible. #fuckfacism #poop

In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…
