This image in the quoted post is the most arresting political cartoon I've seen since the first time I saw this one in 7th grade. They are very much in conversation with each other. Interestingly, this one is from 1893, and the quoted one is from 1920.
A famous old political cartoon set on the docks of a port. A poor, presumably Irish immigrant is stopped from disembarking by five wealthy men in Gilded Age finery. Behind each man is a shadow of their immigrant predecessors, looking just as poor and foreign as the man they're blocking.

That's uh...not the Third Fifth that came to mind, but go off I guess
Merger of Third National Bank and Fifth National Bank (1908)

On June 1, 1908, Third National Bank and Fifth National Bank merged to become the Fifth-Third National Bank of Cincinnati; the hyphen was later dropped. The merger took place when prohibitionist ideas were gaining popularity, and it is a legend that "Fifth Third" was better than "Third Fifth", which could have been construed as a reference to three fifths of alcohol.[6] The name went through several changes—the most recent being Fifth Third Union Trust Company[7]—until March 24, 1969, when it was changed to Fifth Third Bank.

I believe anyone who says Israel isn't committing genocide just straight up isn't listening to what members of the actual government are saying to press. If you try and say "seeking migration" means it's not genocide, be serious. Forcing a people into refugee situations is guess what? Genocide.

This isn't quite "media," but this definitely needs to get shared today.

OMFG

So I’m watching this voice acting documentary on Netflix, “I Know That Voice,” and it’s really good anyway and y'all should watch it.

But they have Kevin Conroy on and they’re into a section about being recognized out in public and Conroy tells this story.

He lives in NYC apparently, and after the 9/11 attacks he helped out making meals for people (in a soup kitchen type thing, I’m gathering).

So one day one guy comes up to him and says, “You know I’m a construction worker in my day job.  What do you do?”

And Conroy tells him that he does voice acting.

And the guy gets all excited, like, “I knew it!  You're that Kevin Conroy, you’re Batman!”

And the guy went out into the dining area and just announced to all of the people there, “You know who’s been cooking your dinner?  Batman.”

The room went completely quiet and eventually some guy at the far end of the room called out, “Bullshit!  Make him prove it!”

So Kevin fucking Conroy just stood in the fucking kitchen and did the, “I am vengeance.  I am the night!  I am Batman!” line.

And the guy was like, “Holy shit it IS Batman!” and everyone cheered.

And the guy who originally approached Conroy came back to him to tell him, “How does it feel to be Santa Claus?  'Cause that’s what you just did.”

And that’s one of the best Batman stories I’ve ever heard.

This is a patch on my battle vest. I do worry when I wear it, people will just see Hebrew and assume values I don't have. Ironic, seeing as it means "repair the world," and to me, that very much includes condemning genocide.

So seeing as my speech came out 49% each for NY and Philly, this makes sense. Also, that I've lived with someone from the Jersey side of the Delaware River (Philly-aligned Jersey, if you're unfamiliar) for over a decade. That also helps lmao.

Bold of this article to suggest I wasn't already warning about those things, some generally, some specifically, that early.
After all, you know what’s coming—January 6, the overturning of Roe v. Wade, checks and balances failing, massive open corruption, troops on the streets, abductions by masked men, and concentration camps. But when you warn of these horrors, it sounds outlandish. People won’t believe you. If you insist, you’ll be dismissed as hysterical. Despite knowing the future, you won’t be able to prevent it.

Ragdoll cats are lorge!
Physical characteristics

The Ragdoll is one of the largest domesticated cat breeds. Fully-grown females weigh from 8 to 15 pounds (3.6 to 6.8 kg). Males are substantially larger, ranging from 12 to 20 pounds (5.4 to 9.1 kg) or more.[6] It can take up to four years for a Ragdoll to reach mature size.[8] They have a sturdy body, bulky frame, and proportionate legs. Their heads are broad with a flat top and wide space between the ears. They have long, muscular bodies with broad chests and short necks. Their tails are bushy and long in length, their paws are large, round, and tufted, and their coats are silky, dense, and medium to long length. Due to their coats tending to be long, they usually require brushing at least twice a week.[18] Adults develop knickerbockers on their hind legs and a ruff around their necks.
