And then this shit just came out. When you’re making over $700k a year, gaining $12k is nothing. It’s a nice vacation, redoing the garage, giving a niece/nephew a car. When you’re making $23k a year, losing $1600 is “are we paying for food or for the house or for medical bills” territory.

A Muslim son of immigrants might become mayor of NYC in part because he cross endorsed and supported a Jewish candidate and Black candidate, and vice versa. It's a beautiful American story for the rest of us. A nightmare for all the right people ;) It's so New York.

If Democrats truly want to appeal to young men, they should probably start presenting themselves as the party that definitively *won’t* draft you into an illegal war.

Every year that passes, I come to better appreciate just how traumatic members of the US elite find it to be yelled at by progressive young people. It is *vastly* more upsetting to them than being yelled at by reactionaries. They warp their entire identities & ideologies around it!

This is an absolute betrayal of promises made by Congress to protect the people who protected American soldiers. A betrayal by people who think American greatness is based on half-assed military parades rather than being a credible ally to those that risked their lives for America.

Brooke: I want to answer you for closure but mom asked me to never reach out to you so let's take this slow and find out if it's you first or not. I do have a picture of my dad as a young man...

Him: Show it to me now

Brooke: I keep it in a locket around my neck to keep him close to me.

Him:Jesus That's my senior picture

Him: Erase the picture I sent you

Brooke: I can't believe this is really happening. God has blessed us with this moment.

I wish you hadn't sent me a picture of your penis, Dad.

Jesus. The juxtaposition of these two posts back to back is just...

10:30am:

"Brevard County Sheriff Sheriff Wayne Ivey: "If you throw a brick, a firebomb, or point a gun at one of our deputies, we will be notifying your family where to collect your remains at, because we will kill you graveyard dead."

10:49am:

law enforcement officials say they made a proactive check at Rep. Hortman's home after a lawmaker who lived nearby was shot and found a "police vehicle in the driveway with emergency lights and what appeared to be a police officer at the door coming out of the house." He was actually the gunman.

The administration's criminalization of Dem politicians for being Dem politicians is designed to produce exactly this outcome. Their celebration & pardon of white vigilantes is designed to produce exactly this outcome.

I would like to be wrong abt this. I would like for white conservatism to accept dissent & respect the rights & ideas of others. I would love to live in an actual democracy. Until we actually address the problem of chronic right wing lawlessness, however, all the rest is just wishful thinking.

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.

I tend to think about what is happening to America right now as the ongoing attempted murder-suicide of multiracial democracy by a white nationalist minority and it’s very frightening but what’s happening in LA feels like a good sign that we’re not going down without a fight

If you really want to drive the point home about how fucked up ICE is then people should start forcing Star Wars themes on ICE. Protesters should start playing the imperial march whenever ICE shows up and should also start dressing like the rebel alliance.

There are moments with authoritarian takeovers where resistance is met with state power and violence in order to intimidate a population into compliance. What happens then literally defines everything. Stay strong. Stay safe. Stay focused.

The right to bring a challenge to your custody to a neutral magistrate has survived in the common law with very few exceptions or exemptions for nine hundred years. Suspending it over a made-up "invasion" is not "controversial." The US media is just openly refusing to meet the moment at this point

If ICE wants to charge me with obstruction or aiding/abetting or whatever else just for doing my job no doubt they'll do that anyway but it does feel especially important right now for anyone reading this in the future to specifically state that I do not encourage or endorse violence of any kind

It is weird to watch everyone on TNG be like "LOL, Data you don't have emotions," when Data clearly demonstrates pride and delight in his special interests, and when Riker was going to use Q power to make him like everyone else, he was clearly afraid. Data, my brother, you're just autistic.

This is such an obvious win for the city. It's not just one of the most pedestrian friendly streets in Seattle, it's one of the most miserable driving streets, even within the most miserable driving neighborhood, which is also the main hub of the regional transit system.
