🧵 UPDATE FOR MY BIRTHDAY:
Hi, so AI killed my career(s) and I'm still barely holding on. Some people tried to get me to start a fundraiser, but that felt weird, so I thought maybe if I was contributing something? So I started making shirts. Can you share this and maybe think about grabbing some?

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

It's maddening to know that, let's say elections actually happen and Republicans lose and this entire coup is self-thwarted, all these politicians and lobbyists and media talking heads etc etc will all still have jobs. And that all these ICE thugs won't be in jail.

Even Democrats won't just say the emperor has no clothes. And this is the last fucking dude I want to see naked and so nobody speaking up at how naked he is is absurd. Everyone that isn't in the GOP payroll should be saying this is a fascist dictator who has ALSO lost his already fractional mind

So no one told him since the last time he said this that it's not true? How do people still put up with journalism/media/all politicians? Saying a city is on fire when it's not would be the end of every presidency until this fucking clown. It's beyond absurd.

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

The fountain monument on the Hillsdale County Courthouse lawn. The metal sculpture in the center of the cement slab depicts a scene from the early European settlement of the area, when Chief Baw Beese welcomed the newcomers as tenants on his land. Three fountains on the side shown, as well as two more on the other side, represent the three rivers that start here in Hillsdale County: the Grand River (Michigan's longest), the St. Joseph River (the one that runs through South Bend and into Lake Michigan), the St. Joseph of the Maumee River (the one that runs through Fort Wayne), the Kalamazoo River (that one should be self-explanatory), and the River Raisin (which runs to the east into Lake Erie).

oh wow, the early reports are that the new Tron movie isn’t doing very well at the box office. this is wild, because the last Tron movie didn’t do very well at the box office, and also the very first Tron movie didn’t do very well at the box office and also neither of those first two were very good.

Cis people are perfectly capable of objecting to the current crop of Harry Potter fascist sympathisers with the same stridency as they did to Kimmel’s cancellation or the Riyadh Comedy Festival. They simply choose not to, because they agree with Rowling that we must be kept down at heel.

I haven't seen a single article about how Matt Berry or Kit Harrington or John Lithgow or Keira Knightley or fucking Nick Frost AND Simon Pegg have very publicly made it clear that they value a big blood soaked paycheck over human rights

But AI has left me nearly homeless! I'm struggling to pay rent for the first time in 20 years! Almost not making it! Seriously I stopped counting after 4 thousand job inquiries; historically the most I've ever done is a hundred. So give me a job! And maybe buy some shirts!
