Remote worker. Rural progressive. My interests on social media are more interesting than my real life hobbies. Really hoping this tool allows me to participate in multiple sub-cultures without losing community.

I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

It seems apt that on an afternoon when Pew Research shows his approval rating nearing the 40-points-underwater threshold, Trump would try to salvage matters by shouting online: *Look! N––ers!!!*

NEW: The CNN/MSNOW/Politico hearing has concluded. It seems clear to me that Judge Kelly will issue a TRO or a preliminary injunction to restore the press passes. The only question is whether he does it on due process alone, or First Amendment as well. I bet we get a ruling before close of business.

It’s very simple. A reality TV host became dictator because he turned down a role for Sharknado 4 and that’s why the king of outer space, who cheats at Diablo, got to kill Africa. Now the economy is controlled by a sex cult that has something to do with Harry Potter fanfic because of robots.

IMHO the taxonomy of right-wing beliefs is: 1) Dipshits who "don't like politics" meaning they don't think at all, just herd behavior 2) Dullards soaked in propaganda who believe they're thinking 3) Downright malicious people who just want to cause harm. Material grievances are tangential at best.

Over on the Nazi hellsite, the breeding partner of the Homeland Security Czar presents proof that murders are dropping at a SLOWER pace in the cities that the Homeland Security Czar invaded with ICE and the Guard.
Homicides are down 17% in big U.S. cities compared to the first half of 2025. 

>D.C. is down 43.9%
>Memphis is down 43.7%

President Trump is literally saving lives.
