Sheryl Weikal says Prosecute ICE @leftistlawyer.com · 2h
What Derek Chauvin did to George Floyd was a public extrajudicial execution. Keep that in mind when you say we haven't had a public execution since 1936. We have, actually. Many times. They're called police murders.

Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.
Miss Piggy and Dolly Parton in fancy dresses posing together photo of Tim Curry surrounded by muppets, smiling for a photo. A quote from curry is added “it didn’t go very well. It didn’t survive the shoot. She felt I wasn’t being faithful to her” it’s him discussing his ill fated affair with miss piggy

You can and should point out that police killing people daily is the "norm" in America. But that doesn't mean you *accept* the normalization of this violence and the way some people rush to smugly point these things out contributes to collective fatigue. Your horror has been stolen from you.

Maybe It Will Happen Today @today-maybe.bsky.social · 10/09/2025
A digital illustration of Margaret Lanterman, the Log Lady from Twin Peaks. She’s a wire lady with big round red-timed glasses and a very 80s mom haircut. She’s wearing a plaid shirt with a thick knit brown cardigan over it and cradling a log in her arms as she looks at you. The background is bluish gray with vertical stripes that could suggest tree trunks. Over her shoulder on the left is a dark silhouette of a seemingly sinister owl. A thought bubble in the form of a long arc passes behind her head and little bubbles lead in with end to the owl and the log. Inside the bubble it reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

Who should play James Bond? Let me put it this way...anytime I'm asked about who I think would be good for a new Freddy Krueger, I always have one answer: Amy Sedaris. I also think Amy Sedaris would be great as Dracula. She'd make one hell of a Columbo too. So honestly? James Bond? Amy Sedaris.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: Thanos mocks a beat-down Captain America, “give up yet?” Panel 2: Doctor Strange begins to open a portal. Spider-Man appears beat up. Through bleeding teeth and a black eye, Captain America replies, “Not while we have…” Panel 3: Thanos, gobsmacked, exclaims, “Maya Angelou!?” Indeed, there she is - Maya Angelou, T-posing and floating stoically through the open portal.
