I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

ALL GLORY TO HYPNOTOAD

Back in my day, I had to drive around with a book so I could be distracted at traffic lights.

I feel like we should get to be a little bit equally terrible. As a treat.

And also: so fucking what if it’s always been horrible. We can’t make the past better but we can do something about the future.

Me, complexly drunk looking at the empty bottle of rum in my hand, “which of you transgenders drank all my rum?!”

The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice. As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree. Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world. The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live!

WA Post has fired their last Black columnist, Karen Attiah, for “speaking out against political violence, racial double standards, & America's apathy toward guns.”

MSM, once a safeguard of democracy, is crumbling, succumbing to the propaganda that is White Christian Nationalism.

RESIST.

🆘 🇺🇸

I believe @karenattiah.bsky.social practices politics the right way, actually.

Now is not the time to politicize egg plants.

Justice. But sometimes also Street Justice.

Just what a shill for Big Cat would claim.

And their sofas.

Got a problem with that? You can take it up with my Lobstradore Retriever who is a very good boy.

Nuclear eels can travel undetected for months or even years.

Just got back from the animal shelter and they said they didn’t have any to adopt so I had to settle for a kitten.

Third time this month.

Hey @churchofsatan.com you know what to do…

We need some secret symbol that means “you can hide from ICE here”

He’s like literally the Zohran Mamdani of the left.

Both? I say we do both.

Gonna keep launching the same rocket for 20 years— total of three oil changes, check engine light on, kinda bald tires.

What do we want?
Nuanced opinions on various issues!
When do we want it?
That depends on a large number of factors… \2 of 27 !

Well past time for big city mayors to call for the arrest of anyone who claims to be law enforcement but wears a mask and/or won’t identify themselves

“OMG they’re rioting in L.A.!!”

Meanwhile, in the beautiful landscape that is Nuestra Señora de Los Angeles.

I get that this is your jam.

Me, if I’m in a sinking boat, anyone bailing water is my ally.

It’s useful to know the difference between enemies and allies that aren’t exactly who we wish they were.

FYI: Washington DMV is super efficient these days— I like to complain about stuff as much as the next guy but I just got my new Realid at @wadol.bsky.social and it was crazy efficient— someone at front directing traffic, appointment started on time, clerk was friendly and fast.

I’m sure there are some democrats on the list but fuck them too.

Someone is getting screwed after making a bunch of deals with Trump? Inconceivable!
