i purchase wbd. fire david zaslav. cancel the harry potter projects, doing my best to save most jobs. fund a third season of our flag means death consisting of 12 45-minute episodes. maybe uncancel some other stuff like rap shit. i convert wbd into some sort of worker-owned co-op then leave

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

I think what's bothering me about all these statements I'm seeing from politicians that are variations of "Israeli hostages and Palestinians are returning to their homes, yay" is that Israelis are returning to their homes and Palestinians are returning to uninhabitable post apocalyptic rubble.

One of my least fav fallacies is the one where people think you can have evidence of someone's inner feelings by changing out the nouns in their sentence for other ones. I have no idea why this is so popular considering nouns are how we know what someone is writing or talking about

“I swear to God, they didn’t feed us. They beat us while we were naked day and night.

Until our last day, they cut us and hit us and abused us. We endured every kind of torture, emotional and physical.

We couldn’t even sleep. They told me they killed my children.”

- released Palestinian prisoner

Palestinian prisoner Shadi Abu Seed has given a harrowing account of life inside an Israeli prison after his release as part of the ceasefire deal.

“I went hungry for the past two years. I swear to God, they didn’t feed us. They kept us naked. They beat us while we were naked day and night. We were tortured,” Abu Seed said.

“Until our last day in Israeli prison, they cut us and hit us and abused us. We endured every kind of torture, emotional and physical.

“We couldn’t even sleep. They threatened us with our children. They told me they killed my children. They told us that Gaza was destroyed. I arrived here and found that everything was gone. It looked like the end of the world. Everything is different.”

This is what it’s like to be Palestinian: Israel threatening you with “severe consequences” if you express any joy at the homecoming of your loved ones from captivity in Israeli prisons, where they’ve been tortured for decades.

Al Jazeera English @aljazeera.com · 1d

While Israelis celebrated the return of captives from Gaza, Israel warned Palestinian families against holding celebrations over the return of prisoners – some who had been held for decades. Al Jazeera’s Nour Odeh explains.

It's important to remember that Columbus was considered a monster and mass-murderer AT THE TIME. If the Spanish in 1500 considered you a genocidal psycho, you were not good.

Thomas Lecaque @tlecaque.bsky.social · 2d

Christopher Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains by a crusading knight, convicted of tyranny and immeasurable cruelty, pardoned by Isabella but banned from returning to Hispaniola.

Fuck Columbus.

It’s impossible to overstate how much “abolish ice” is the normie position now here in chicago — just countless random moms at toddler soccer on a park district field asking me where I bought my anti-ice t-shirt. average people don’t like our neighborhoods being terrorized.

Fr. Larry Dowling was the pastor of St. Agatha, a Black parish in North Lawndale (a Black neighborhood MLK lived in to protest housing discrimination.) Fr. Dowling retired in June 2024. After a 6-month sabbatical, inc travel to West Africa, he has been active in prayerful protest for immigrants.

Rich Raho @richraho.bsky.social · 3d

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

I once attended a counter-protest at a Klan march. Every time they shouted “Wh*te P*wer” a group dressed like clowns shouted “White Flour!” and threw handfuls of flour into the air. It was silly. And it was great watching those puffed-up racists deflate immediately when ridiculed.

Michelle Harney @mlh2025.bsky.social · 3d

Say it again and again and again. Music, costumes, dancing, and anything absolutely ridiculous is a great way to fight back. It is hard to say any of these things are "violence attacking ICE".
We aren't attacking anyone, we just want our constitutional rights back.

Heartbreaking reading, but this Reddit thread gives a sense of the relentlessness of the horror inflicted by ICE, and the damage being done to so many innocent people that doesn't make the news.
