Today marks 24 years since the signing of the PATRIOT Act: a law that dramatically expanded authoritarian policing in the United States. It was born out of fear and fueled by Islamophobia.

When you’re about to argue on the behalf of the slave trade you should probably just not do it. Especially when no one made the statement you’re “not standing up for”.

— Waking up in 2025

When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me,

“Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.”

This is bleak 🤮

A google generated list of likely D presidential candidates for 2028: G. Newsome, G Whitmer, J Shapiro, K Harris, W Moore, J Pritzker, P Buttigieg, A Beshear, AOC, T Walz, R Khanna, A Klobuchar, R Watnock, M Cuban. Commenters have added Obama to the list as logically he’d be eligible for a third term if DT is.

Unclench your jaw.

Relax your brow.

Go get a drink of water.

See if you've taken your meds

Eat something.

Doesn't matter what you look like right now, i think you look amazing.

Because you do.

You're a wonderful person.

And have this. 🫂🖤 you did great today. You made it through

bill maher has passed away after being made to shut up for five god damn minutes this evening. doctors say the comedian and talk show host likely died of a "broken heart" which they note was "black as coal" and "no bigger than an acorn" though it rolled under a cabinet before measurements were taken

Yeah, I don’t anticipate a great deal of whimsy when they come.

Portland resists with whimsical improv theater, Chicago resists by screaming at weird jagoffs that don’t belong in the neighborhood. Every city brings its own strengths to the fight
