“The absurdity of adults dancing in inflatable costumes during anti-ICE demonstrations is meant to display community joy, protesters say, and helps to dispel the Trump administration’s narrative that Portland is a crime-ridden “war zone,” a characterization local and state leaders say is false.”

Costumed protesters in Portland defy description of the city as a 'war zone'

Dancing frogs, peacocks and unicorns outside the federal immigration building present a joyful contrast to the Trump administration's portrait of the Oregon city, they say.

Fell into a TikTok rabbithole this morning and discovered that one reason Vladdy hates Yankees so much is that they kicked him off the field of Yankee stadium as a child - he was there playing with other players’ kids and that is a such a relatable level of pettiness 😂 vt.tiktok.com/ZSUkUEHHj/

In a way I can't quite explain, my favourite word here is actually "Canada". Something about the emphasis of it makes me go "hell yeah dude!"

Kevin Gausman does not give a bleep about the censors.
