Good luck to Republicans responding to this smart line of attack by just insisting over and over again that the man saying it is gay, or crazy, or both.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a little dog is sleeping on a couch, kicking its paws. A person says, “look! The little kicks!” Panel 2: in awe of the cuteness, the person continues, “what do you think he’s dreaming about?” Panel 3: in the dog’s dream, the pup is wearing a captain’s jacket, holding tightly to a wooden ship on stormy seas. In his other paw, he is gripping a harpoon as an enormous vacuum cleaner breaches violently from the water.

Ms Rachel from the top ropes
From Ms Rachel's account on Threads, she writes, "CORECIVIC, a company that makes hundreds of millions locking up KIDS in immigration detention
has a PAC that's sending campaign checks to Senator Susan Collins of Maine.
Susan Collins chairs the Senate committee that writes ICE's budget.
ICE is CoreCivic's customer.
The company gets paid out of a budget she controls, and it pays into her campaign."

Three panel comic. Panel 1: in an office break room, an excited man inspects a box of donuts. He says, “ooo… who brought donuts?” A coworker behind him says, “idk.” Panel 2: the man is holding tightly to the donut as it is suddenly and forcefully yanked out of frame, sending the table and several objects into the air. Panel 3: two fish are sitting in a canoe wish fishing gear. One grabs tightly to his fishing pole and exclaims, “I got one!”

Golden record
Three panel comic. Panel 1: Carl Sagan and a scientist colleague look into space, watching Voyager 1 (an unmanned space device designed to float eternally away from earth) fly into deep space. Sagan says, “well, away she goes. The next big step in extraterrestrial contact.” Panel 2: he asks his colleague, “what album did you decide to put on it?” Panel 3: Voyager 1 drifts away, earth shrinking in the distance. Attached to the spacecraft is a CD copy of Gucci Mane - Trap Story. The album cover is absolutely insane and designed to looked like a Toy Story spoof with a ton of jewelry and a trap house in the background.At the far end of the universe, 24 shnillion years from now: two bizarre aliens stand next to each other and listen to a CD player. One says, “dang, this goes hard.”

Today marks the Anniversary of Matthew Shepard's death. Not everyone knows the story of what happened after, that it would be 25 long years before his body would have a permanent resting spot. Because of hate. Hate for a beautiful young gentle soul that was taken too soon. #MatthewShepard #LGTBT
WE WILL NOT FORGET

On the night of October 6, 1998 Matthew Shepard was targeted, kidnapped, pistol whipped, and left tied to a fence in a remote field in Laramie, Wyoming.

He died six days later from severe head injuries in Fort Collins, Colorado. 

Both perpetrators were arrested, convicted of first-degree
murder and sentenced to consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole.

Did you know that for 25 years Matthew Shepard had no permanent resting place due to concerns his grave would be vandalized, and when Reverend Budde learned of this, she invited the Shepards to
inter him inside the Washington National Cathedral. She co-officiated the service that welcomed Matthew to a forever home in the church and told the gathering, "20 years of mourning was not enough for
someone who is loved. Nor can 20 years heal the grief of such a loss."

David Brooks is doing what the entire establishment right has done for decades — pretending the Nazis in their midst at every fucking level simply don’t exist, and anyone who says they do is a crackpot liberal who should be ignored. An argument LONG past its prime.

I’ve always suspected there are far more bots generating propaganda on the internet than most people realize. Like, orders of magnitude more. It’s really easy for bad actors to spin up huge botnets now, and with AI assistance it gets even simpler, and harder to detect.

for as long as i've been alive, republicans have ran the same playbook: a few weeks before voting begins, they roll out completely fabricated smear campaigns. these things are always coordinated, so the talking points take over the news. the party is never electorally punished for their dishonesty.

With each daily outrage over the past 11 years I sometimes think “This must be it. Surely this must be the tipping point.” Each thought remains, even after the media moves on (if they acknowledged it at all). Our shared reality is exhausting, isn’t it?

I know everyone’s jaded and exhausted by the continual parade of madness, but this is the president of US openly inciting racist violence against an entire community of immigrants. (w/ alt text)
The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants. There is Violence, Murder, and Mayhem all over the State. The people of Minnesota must fight back. You have been robbed, and abandoned by your State Government. Your Governor is an incompetent thief who doesn't want to get involved. He just wants to get out of town with as much as he can steal, and then, lead a quiet life. The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing.
They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back! If you need, the Federal Government will come to your rescue.
Governor Tim Walz, and Mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey, must immediately ask for Federal help — and leave the rest to us! President DONALD J. TRUMP

I find it fucked up that the Chicago Tribune's obit of Hastert, while leading with his infamy, then seamlessly transitions into a standard political obit that's likely been in the can for 20 years. Absolutely no effort made to talk about power and abuse in light of the horrors of the current age.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a high school basketball game. The home team is down 9 points, and some players are looking discouraged on the bench. The coach points to a player just out of frame and says, “flippers, you’re in!” Panel 2: the away team attempts a deep 2-point shot, possibly to beat the buzzer, which is blocked by Flippers, a whale who doesn’t even have his arms up. Panel 3: the game ends and the home team excitedly crowd around Flippers, who won them the game. A player from the away team looks stunned, with his hands on his head.
