L.J. Lawless

People are being executed in the street over a problem that straight up does not exist and both parties are complicit in the lie

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

You FUCKED UP, your LEFTY politics have ALIENATED the BILLIONAIRES who run the CHILD BONE EXTRACTION FACTORIES and now they will do a MASS EXODUS from your STATE or CITY. Don’t CRY to ME when you no longer see their CHILD CATCHING VANS in your STATE or CITY, YOU IDIOT

god the themes were masterful

it is pretty darkly funny seeing posts like URGENT!!!! it is SUNDAY EVENING you must PUT DOWN YOUR DINNER and call your senator IMMEDIATELY to politely request they not press the big button marked "fuck you". this will not actually stop them from pressing the fuck you button. functioning democracy

Why has the government been closed at all if Senate Dems cave now? Didn't they say that they could not go along with throwing millions of people off health care?

What's materially changed? A *promise* is not action. ALSO fascists lie and I've been told by some Senate Dems that the GOP is fascist.

In light of the govt shutdown and SNAP getting cut for a ton of folks, I have had a fun idea for how to help. I call it "Operation Turkey Heist (legal)."

Allow me to explain...

A lot of grocery stories are doing a "free turkey with X dollar purchase" and food banks very much want those turkeys.

to understand what's happening in romantasy, and how pubilshers make decisions about what stories to tell, it's in fact deeply necessary to know how diverse YA fantasy actually is. because that's how it becomes really clear the extent to which romantasy publishers are prioritizing straight whiteness

FWIW i’ve switched to @bookshop.org for ebooks and Libro for audio books and with very few exceptions had the exact same experience as Amazon without the greasy aftertaste. Highly recommended.

That one is on my universal recommendation list too!

the east coast: in the air all around you :)

the east coast: there is no escape :)

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

Abrego Garcia Returning to US to Face Charges, ABC Reports Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a man the Trump administration acknowledged was wrongly deported to El Salvador, is on his way back to the US, ABC News reported Friday.

a good thing to ask yourself when pursuing a broad political strategy is “would this have prevented the civil rights movement?”

*existential scream about how good Andor is*

props, Canada! Happy for you guys!! 🇨🇦

god bless canada for taking a look at what we've got going on down here and rightfully saying "uh actually no thanks"

Eventually I was just like idk, there are a lot of things in the world that need doing and the existence of those programs shouldn’t depend on if they’re sexy enough to pitch at a cocktail party. But somehow, it does. No shade to the NGOs who work this way, it’s just the reality. But I hated it!

A lot of private fundraising for NGOs is about identifying the extremely wealthy people and pitching them the good deed your org does, hopefully getting them to commit major $ to establish a project. But it’s so 1:1 and relational. Like, how is this good deed good for *them.*

This is basically why I had to get out of nonprofit fundraising, it was driving me to 24/7 blind rage 😅

Abrego Garcia’s Wife Forced to Go Into Hiding Thanks to DHS Slip-Up Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s wife says she fears for her safety since the Trump administration deported him to a prison in El Salvador.

“The wife of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador by the Trump administration, was forced to move to a safe house with her children after the government **posted their home address** to social media.” 4/23/25 newrepublic.com/post/194289/...

I feel like we need to keep saying this because it’s so insane: This is a legal U.S. resident who has been detained for over a month now for his political opinions.

Heheheheh oh look the only move they can make that actually makes me want kids LESS

It was the worst of times, it was the even worse than that of times

It is time for Trump to put up or shut up in Court.

A FEDERAL JUDGE said “no evidence before the court connects Abrego Garcia to MS-13 or any criminal organization.” No one is vouching for one man. We are standing up for EVERYONE’s right to due process under the Constitution.
