God, I hate seeing her face. I hate seeing any of their faces. I saw her immigration ad once on YouTube and immediately reported it to Google with some heated words, lol! Never saw it again.

Abbott hates color. He prefers bland, grayscale roads.

So for those who struggle, who work long hours to make minimum pay, who live paycheck to paycheck, who's rent keeps increasing year after year, who has $30 or less in their account right now...I see you and I hope you know there's always a way out. But sometimes it won't be obvious to see.

RebelLulu @rebellulu.bsky.social · 11h

This is compared to the fact that my previous job paid me half as much as I make at my current job...and I lived in a small apartment and had to drive to work. Working remote has saved me a lot of money. But I'm grateful that I no longer have to worry about having $30 to my name at times. /2

You know what's really funny to me? I make enough money to pay my bills and purchase groceries...but I rarely splurge on anything because my funds are primarily used up because of bills and groceries 😅 If I'm lucky, I can buy something nice for myself once a month. But it's never that often. /1

As an American, I agree. And I didn't vote for this Felon to be president. I'm sorry that he fucked us and fucked our closest allies. Don't come here. The US isn't safe for anyone right now, even its citizens.

They’re still offering new ICE recruits a $50,000 signing bonus, yet active duty military were seen today lining up at food banks.

Defend your country and you can’t afford to eat.

Terrorize your country and you become rich.

How is it that he and all of his cult followers believe they're living in this weird, fucked up reality?

Y'know, I gotta hand it to the devs of #DateEverything. Quality game, so far. I'm in love with a wall, the HVAC, and a d20, and the stairs fucking hate me.

It's scary that these are so accurate today. 2025.

A few other notable Dr. Seuss political cartoons:

Cartoon: Two men stand on a platform with an intertwined beard. One says "America First" and the other wears a swastika. A circus manager announces to the crowd:

Caption: And on this platform, folks, those most perplexing people... The Lads with the Siamese Beard! Unrelated by blood, they are joined in a manner that mystifies the mightiest minds in the land!

Cartoon: a woman with an "America First" sweater reads to two children from a book entitled "Adolf the Wolf"

Caption: and the Wolf chewed up the children and spit out their bones... But those were FOREIGN CHILDREN and it really didn't matter.

Cartoon: A man with a "Profiteer" emblazoned coat sells umbrellas during a flood to people taking refuge on rooftops. A swastika can be seen in the torrential rain.

Caption: Beware the man who makes a fortune in a flood!

Everything this regime does is illegal and unlawful. And they're doing so much of it every day that the courts that ARE still acting lawfully are having a very hard time keeping up with all of this destruction.
