WWII "Friend" poster series from the Allied Forces, originally demonstrating the various Allied forces (British, Australian, Chinese, French, Dutch, etc.) and their appearances

It reads:

"This man is your FRIEND

He fights for FREEDOM"

The image is a sepia/black and white toned image of the Portland Frog protester, simply labelled FROG

No, the Yankees should never, under any circumstances, win any games. I hope they loose at checkers against they're children.

The monkey's paw curls and the Huston Rockets move to Winnipeg; the Kansas Royals to Smithers, British Columbia.

If I get extrajudicially got because I did research and writing about fascism being bad, you all need to scream from the rooftops that who they got was a mom of young kids who volunteers at a preschool.

I will haunt each and every one of you if you do not

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.

I am honestly not sure the bots have cracked the ability to read a post with amount of gleeful bad faith that person is showing.

A great way to turn the temp down here as @jay.bsky.team @pfrazee.com and @aaron.bsky.team want would be to stop communicating site policies and practices with individual users or on their timelines and hire a comms person who is a professional communicator to do all the front facing interaction.

Climate change is absolutely affecting how long the weather stays warm, but that's part of what makes it feel so blasphemous. We're hiding from the consequences of our behaviour behind artificial environments.

I love hockey, but it some sacrilegious for the NHL season to start before the first frost of the fall.

It's been a long time since I posted this vengeful queen. Back when my style was a little more abstract and weird.

A queen with a RBF stands with her hands on a sword's hilt. Her skirt is an abstract view into a kingdom on fire.

I understand your point that Allied technology was generally superior, but the Atomic bomb is such a weird exception to make. The Germans were ahead in technology except for the one invention that changed warfare and international relations forever.

Gotta love that thing white people invented where they won't listen to you until you raise your voice and then use the fact that you raised your voice as an excuse to not listen to you.

I don't know for baseball specifically, but in most sports teams will have a "core" of players signed to longer term deals while roles players will be moved more often. They don't change the whole roster, but you can expect some turn over every season.

As a person of color, it is fascinating to see so many white people argue that it’s okay to behave this way since the target “isn’t human,” and because they have a personal issue with the people explaining the corrosive nature of hate speech.

Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · 4d

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

Trumpism is glaringly every crass & macabre thing the world has actually been thinking is America this whole time, while pre-collapse American exceptionalism had Americans thinking their shit don't stink.
