Social media and the parallel evolution of “cringe” has robbed the world of whimsy and color.

There were times not long ago when the absurd and outlandish could fire our imaginations.

Never forget what they took from you!

the only moral action is to abolish ICE and punish those who are members of ICE

Don Moynihan @donmoyn.bsky.social · 9h

ICE shot an American citizen and food bank worker who tried to block them arresting an immigrant by pulling his car in front of them.
After being released from hospital: "He is now facing charges for assault on a federal officer."
www.calonews.com/featured-top...

Carlos Jimenez, a 24-year-old U.S. citizen, was on his way to work at a food bank when he was shot by ICE officers in what a DHS spokesperson calls “defensive shots.”

On Thursday morning at approximately 6:30 a.m., ICE officers were at Vineyard Avenue in Ontario when Jimenez, who was not in the target vehicle, attempted to pull in front of the officers.

According to Javier Hernandez, executive director of the Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice, Jimenez was trying to assist and provide aid to the person who was being stopped by ICE officers.

After Jimenez was shot in the shoulder, the LA Times and LA Taco reported that he drove to his brother’s house so he could take him to the hospital.

Posting stuff like this and acting like we aren't supposed to think this is the coolest shit ever

Zohran Mamdani is Godzilla, firing a rainbow of communism out of his mouth, with a bus in front of him, and Stalin and Mao are looking on, smiling at his endeavors. Scattered around are bicycle signs and a notice that car drivers will be shot.

it really should not and can not be forgotten that this type of technocratic liberal did so much heavy lifting and legitimizing of JD Vance in the public zeitgeist and is partially responsible as to why he is where he is now

the biggest flashbang of reading this was using JD Vance as an example of a “reasonable conservative thought leader who doesn’t resort to white supremacist framing” LMFAO

She brought some solid evidence to the table for that thesis. But in the course of doing so she also swept the conservative writer J. D. Vance-who has an Indian American wife and a multiracial son
—into the critique simply based on statements he had made in worrying about the American birth rate.

brianna wu will get to the point i described in my thread, after she's exhausted every other option and found some way to advocate for it without sounding vulnerable or weak

l.e. zoë 🌸🌒🌕🌘🪻 @lezoe.bsky.social · 1d

i believe brianna wu when she says she's genuinely mystified as to how we save trans women in this country. the key is stepping out of the richoid bubble for two seconds and paying attention to working class voters.

l.e. zoë 🌸🌒🌕🌘🪻 @lezoe.bsky.social · 1d

i'll take her bait.

1) throw our lot behind trans-friendly democrats who lead with rent, healthcare, and housing. zohran is the top example
2) resist, at all costs, the conservative astroturfing efforts to preserve reganite, clintonite capitalism in the democrat party like Welcome PAC

she grew up in the immediate aftermath of the aids pandemic, and when it still posed a credible threat to queer people even if they were wealthy. it would not surprise me if she fears getting it deeply, to the point of resenting those who did get it, and blaming them for getting it

when healthcare is free, housing is affordable, and transit is cheap clean and dignified, republican attacks on trans people will look tryhard. democrats need to be such a juggernaut with the working class that TERFs feel utterly powerless and despondent at the idea of stopping trans rights

l.e. zoë 🌸🌒🌕🌘🪻 @lezoe.bsky.social · 1d

with point 1, we actually win elections, because trans issues aren't an animating issue with voters one way or the other, but kitchen table issues and material concerns are. with point 2, we make it clear that if democrats win, they are stuck with us, and they must deliver

I’m pleased to announce that following our reporting, multiple people have reported that a formal inquiry is being made into SEGM’s accreditation, and that the CME courses are at least temporarily pulled down.

people like brianna wu - relatively privileged until recently - don't understand the post-apocalyptic capitalist hellscape we've all been wandering since at LEAST 2008. she doesn't (yet) understand that you can't beg for a special exception to the effects of a crumbling society on the whole

i would have guessed that playing footsie with reactionaries would have gotten you some kind of exemption -- guess not
