I'm curious about how local law enforcement feels about these guys. In chicago, the FOP is strongly in support of ICE. But a lot of the rank and file hate them. Don't know if it'll make a material difference in protecting people from ICE.

Right on. I am consistently impressed by your moral clarity. I'm glad that you have been one of our generations primary storytellers.

Is this one of those cases where the FBI will quietly allow a citizen to defend themselves against it imposter? But they will not advertise that that is within their rights to avoid a panic on legitimate law enforcement?

So when we said, "No Kings" we apparently weren't specific enough.

NEW: The U.S. Congressional Budget Office was hacked.

@doublepulsar.com found that the cause may be an unpatched Cisco ASA firewall. I asked CBO about that but it did not respond to the question.

It turns out firing everyone from their jobs and then starving them while holding their healthcare hostage isn't a winning platform.

Is it easier to draw panels showing their impact? Or do you still have to do that anyway?

That's what I made for Easter last year, but instead of mashed potatoes, I made au gratin dauphinois.

Hey folks, are we preparing ourselves for the level of mutual aid that is going to be required next month? People will not have their SNAP benefits.

We should be actively thinking about how we're going to protect and feed our communities instead of planning the largest feast we can.

None of these billionaires has ever even became Batman or Ironman. They're certainly not going to fund The Daily Planet. They might get reported on. They are rich and boring. They don't even build museums anymore.

STEREOGUM: People my age, we talk about how we were lucky that we didn’t have social media growing up, and there’s no record of all the dumb shit we said and did. You didn’t have social media, but everything you said and did in those years is on record, and you’ve got to live with it now. That’s tough.

VIOLENT J: And the amount of gay Juggalos out there is really surprising. I think about them doing their research and getting the old records, getting excited about it, and getting their hearts broke or something, you know? I tell my daughter, “For the rest of your life, when your friends ask why your dad said that, say it’s because your dad was a fool. Don’t defend me. Say I was a fool then, but I’m not now.” There’s no excuse. I was going with the flow, and that’s the very thing we preach against — being a sheep. And that’s what I was doing.

Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.

It is deeply concerning that America is having a literal kristallnacht in Chicago and it is not the only story in National news.

Arresting entire buildings, vanishing journalist, shooting priests in the head and zip tying children aren't enough to lead?

Cat-Man! I loved everything about his redemption, his leadership skills and how he's a sensible foil to good guys. He should have a far more prominent role in DC. I'm surprised James Gunn never tapped you to write movies for these guys.

At $30 a month? I canceled. All you've done is raise the prices on your hardware and mediocre software. Y'all should hear that from the public sphere.
