Thank you for responding.
I like the artwork.
These comic (graphic novel?) artists don't get the recognition they deserve.

I look at @lavidaenvinetas.bsky.social 's timeline every day.

I really feel for Zelensky having to try and do deals with the unstable, demented, devious, revengeful, treacherous, and corrupt asshole that is Trump.

Please repost if you agree.

When I was younger you could always tell an American by the white socks. I don't think they realised it was such a giveaway.

Did this white socks habit originated in the US military?

Here's hoping that the next predicted Rapture actually happens and takes away all these freaks.

Sometimes slowly, but inexorably, the orange tyrant’s tariffs are coming for you.

Will this cargo of inflatable frogs* about to leave China arrive in the US before the 100% extra tariff kicks in?

*note: the frog costumes are in the green boxes.

Yes indeed.

The US is no longer a reliable trading partner.

If in doubt, avoid.

FR, this photo deserves a Pulitzer prize.

What the generals, rightly, refused to do.

But we all know that it's what Trump expected the generals to do.
But they didn't.
No, they didn't.

And nor did the Nobel Prize committee.

Rollins: "We had an amazing cabinet meeting. President Trump walked in before the cameras were there. We all stood up & gave him a two minute standing ovation. There's so much love in that room & respect & just appreciation for him. No one could do what that man is doing today. So I was so grateful"

How do you know which inflatable frog has a person inside it?

Resistance. Refusal. Ridicule. Those are the ingredients to bring down regimes and among them ridicule is arguably the most delicious. The emperor isn't just naked; his goon squad is afraid of an inflatable frog.
Portland is TOO FABULOUS FOR FASCISM.

Portland, keep rocking those inflatable animal costumes at protests! 🦒🦁 It's driving the admin nuts—they can't post "chaos" pics to justify military action and are resorting to using South Africa photos, claiming it's you! 😂 Keep it wild, Portland! We are proud of you.
