wait what the fuck

Ruby is in a hell of a situation with housing caused by a violent room mate (details in the thread here). Any help would be much appreciated.

idk it sounds like possibly an interesting master class sort of thing? like, a chance to observe how other people practice

Word to the wise: do not fly internationally into Logan. All of the major public detainments of Legal Residents and Citizens at airports have been out of Logan.

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

Bluesky look at this gift I found for you

Vought is at war with large swaths of the population, with the very idea of a society defined by democratic pluralism. If you have correctly identified that this guy is now in a really powerful position, that people like him are in control of the government, how is that not the main story?

It's probably a very bad thing that we have so many billionaires with so much power whose collective brains have all been utterly broken because of a combination of A) they're afraid to die B) their dick doesn't work, and/or C) People yelled at them online.

guy who hates soup but specifically in a racist way

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

this is more than just marching in full regalia to Broadview and praying outside of it

this is very deftly trapping ICE into the position of having to literally - LITERALLY, to them - turn Christ away from the door

any Catholic ICE officer was probably shook, I’m really not exaggerating

The natural progression of an ecological community through different stages of development.

Yes ultimately many Dem electeds are afraid to give police under their command lawful orders because they think they will not be obeyed and the consequences that fact would have for them and for their state.

aaand we are officially in the hide-your-neighbors stage

Nah, people like this are fine with it as long as it's not consensual

Do they really not realize that this kind of language just...reeks of desperation?

Trying to stop the process of ecological succession is a losing battle, is what I'm basically trying to say here.

Well... sure, we're all constantly being transported into the future, and we don't get much say in it. Places change, always. They have to. I don't think any community in this country is old enough to have become the human equivalent of a climax community; none of them are old enough.

It's worse, *they were cooperating*.

ICE asked to search, the son said yes, told them to wait while he put the dog in the bathroom. They asked for the sons ID, he went outside to get it and ICE started snooping and opened the bathroom door and then shot the dog.

Never cooperate without a warrant.

antifaxolotl is my new favorite thing

These guys have gotten incredibly rich by fleecing the government with subpar tech that was designed for rentseeking rather than performance. A smart Dem agenda item would be to build internal tech capacity. The fact that it would punish these guys is just a silver lining.

Except the president of MIT (which Trump’s uncle attended, as he frequently rambles about) just told his administration to pound sand.

after millions of views and shares of my Portland Frog art. (thank you all🙏🏾) I got requests to highlight priests, and chickens, and Chicagoans, and T-Rexes, and more… all of us who refuse to bend the knee. so this is for US.
