I've had to dig through my image folder for this so much recently that I'm just gonna post it here for ease of access.

The Simpsons "Don't make me tap the sign" bus driver meme wherein the sign is the eve6 (@eve6.bsky.social) skeet reading "Blue sky is awesome because a bunch of people who like to make jokes and a bunch of people who are incapable of identifying a joke are forced to share space"

Just another #marxistmonday 🎶

'Cause that's my funday 🎶 😄

A meme split into two parts. The top half is a news-style headline reading, “73% of millennials are living paycheck to paycheck, new report finds” (dated April 28, 2023). The bottom half is a scene from the movie Office Space with Karl Marx’s head edited onto the boss character. Text at the bottom says: “If the workers of the world would unite, that would be great.”

Even more reason to never buy an EA game again, as if there weren't already enough.

Nobody cares about the victims in the Dallas ICE shooting apparently. The first I've heard about one of them was on CNN today. He's fighting for his life in the hospital --- he was brought to the US when he was 13. He's 33 now. No criminal record.

I just don't know what to say anymore.

Fortunately there's only 3 more years of rapidly escalating fascism before there's a peaceful exchange of power

Just one of the craziest things I've ever seen. The President boldly posting AI generated science fiction like its news now.

Trump tonight appears to have pushed the false "medbed" conspiracy theory, which has spread in the far-right internet over the years. www.yahoo.com/news/qanon-c...

Is This Hell? 🏳️‍🌈 @wattle.bsky.social · 14d

This is so vague and sweeping it could mean anything, by design. Essentially makes nonconformity to white Christian patriarchy illegal

• anti-Americanism,
• anti-capitalism,
• anti-Christianity,
• support for the overthrow of the United States Government,
• extremism on migration,
• extremism on race,
• extremism on gender
• hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family,
• hostility towards those who hold traditional American
views on religion, and
• hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on morality.

It is not a coincidence that most of the videos you see of ICE agents using excessive force seem to feature unarmed women half their size. 🙃

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
