To any ICE agent out there tonight still retainimg any trace of humanity who might be asking what you can do to calm things down after MN.

It's simple.

Quit. Tomorrow morning. You don't even have to turn in a badge because you never had one.

Just quit and find real work.

Porn and erotica are important and societally valuable forms of speech, and the defense of them, in the face of state and church attempts at repression, is a necessary political act.

talked to the owner of a denim company that produces jeans in the US. he said that he's seen declining sales abroad in EU and Canada. stores tell him that customers don't want to buy MiUSA products bc Trump makes dumb, pointless threats like "taking over Canada or Greenland"

Men who are anti abortion tell us to “take responsibility”

To close our legs, go on the pill or get our tubes tied

Then they:

Choose to rape

Choose to defund planned parenthood

Choose to prop up a medical system that denies tubals because we might “meet a man who wants kids”

“Why are Americans mistrustful of AI?” asks the morning briefing thing I’m skimming while I “no” through literally a dozen questions being asked to me by a robot who stands between me and the person I need to talk to to schedule the x-ray that I really, really need

The mysterious cartoonist who goes by pseudonym Olivia James has left the comic strip Nancy which she revitalized with sometimes surreal, absurdist and self-aware humor in 2018. Starting today Nancy is by Eisner winner Caroline Cash. Exciting times for Nancy fans! www.gocomics.com/extras/nancy...
“Nancy” Says Goodbye to Olivia James, Hello to a Brand-New Creator
It’s a new era for the comic strip, which has been in print for more than 100 years.

NYT commiting journalistic malpractice is like my wife or friends cuddling me. It's just normal at this point. like who still subs to NYT?
This is basically journalistic malpractice.
This NYT story failed the reader by not digging deeper. One subject dropped out of college after one year (five years ago) and lists "Windows" as his skillset. Story should be: young conservatives who blame immigrants for their personal failures and whose lives won't be improved w/ fewer immigrants
