Real lives are being destroyed and snuffed out every day that this policy is allowed to continue and the people who devised it are not in jail. I know we all know this, but I feel like it's important to say it from time to time.

At this time back in 1862, George McClellan's Army of the Potomac was aligned along Antietam creek, prepared to attack Robert E Lee's left flank before first light. It would be a piecemeal and totally uncoordinated battle, ultimately becoming the bloodiest day in American history.

Even in the annals of the second Trump era, the Haitian TPS deportations may be the most morally reprehensible and indefensible act.

Haitians Deported From U.S. Are Left Broke and Stranded
Hundreds have been deported to Haiti in recent weeks, and some say they have been left with no money, no protection from gangs and no place to go.

We have so much to thank Canada for - maple syrup - moose - hockey things - Insulin - the pacemaker - basketball - Pvt John A Huff of Ontario, who as a member of the 5th Michigan Cavalry Regiment shot and killed Confederate General JEB Stuart at Yellow Tavern on May 11, 1864

Tired: Jason should have stayed dead. Wired: Damian should have stayed dead.

Confusingly I feel like Damian worked best as Dick's Robin even though he was generally maximally annoying when written by Morrison.

Brexton O'Donnell @breckod.bsky.social · 23/08/2026
This would piss Damian off even more than Tim's existence so it's a win.

Agreed on both counts. Love Oracle, just let her be Oracle. There are two other perfectly good Batgirls!

The Joker's biggest wins are murdering Robin and crippling Batgirl and neither stuck.

In my head, the Joker is desperately trying to recapture the high he got from crippling Barbara and murdering Jason in the same year and it just never works.

Also: the Trump presidency isn't even half over yet, and the maximum alarmists weren't nuts. ICE is operating as a death squad or is at least building up to it. Birthright citizenship nearly died in court. Mass corruption. Iran War. Haitian ethnic cleansing. Concentration camps. It's very bad!

I think the thing we are all in denial about when it comes to the One Cool Trick to win elections forever is that low info swing voters are basically incomprehensible eldritch horrors to politically engaged people. There’s no understanding them and you’ll go mad trying.
