Trump: junior. you gotta do something about this autism thing, elon is driving me nuts
RFK Jr., after taking a huge huff from an aerosol canister: what

Adri @adriofthedead.bsky.social · 5h

anyone else think it’s a little weird that Trump is now suddenly so hung up on “fixing” autism after his falling out with Elon

Justin Baragona @justinbaragona.bsky.social · 7h

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

I didn't know Mamdani's wife was a comics nerd! New York, you have to vote for him now because I need at least one person in comics to have good health insurance.

The right-wing lies are so pathetic. Look at this caption of a photo from Portland of a woman wearing a unicorn costume:

"They may not look very physically threatening … But they are militants, sociopathic."

A 100-lb woman in a unicorn costume with a chicken purse is going to hurt ICE thugs?

One of the more incredible stories out of LA this year has been how a taco review blog became the best on-the-ground coverage of ICE raids in the city.

They do a dispatch every day, follow-up on the kidnapped people (which almost no media outlet has done), and fact-check government claims.

I was turning right out of the parking lot and immediately came nose to nose with another car driving in the wrong fucking lane

I thankfully swerved out of the way in time and laid on my horn, but the other driver just kept going like I wasn’t even there 🙃
