The fact that they can't get a random sampling of citizens from any city to indict people for interfering with ICE seems more informative than any political poll, tbh

Extra funny when you think about how Sinners, which features Michael B. Jordan gunning down Klansmen in broad daylight in slow-mo, is the 10th highest-grossing R-rated film of all time - higher than The Hangover, 300, Logan, John Wick 4, etc....

Six years ago, I wrote most of the Tragedian dialogue for Pathologic 2 in iambic pentameter. I'm back now doing the same for Pathologic 3. I figured it was helpful to write a guide on *how* I did it – in case I get hit by a bus and the team has to carry on without me.

donald trump is a fascistic leader who has surrounded himself with people who are explicitely pro-fascistic that want to end democracy as we know it and punish anyone who dissents. pretending otherwise leads me to believe you agree with them doing this

this is some vile fucking shit

yes im glad my dysphoria is treated but the solution was never "erase our transness" it was "let me be the fucking woman i am"

the problem is not being trans; i fucking love being a trans woman and am proud of it.

the problem is solely how society treats us.

Katie Tightpussy, Editor-In-Chief @katie.bzky.team · 2h

not to dwell on the latest incoherent screed, but i look forward to the day in which trans women do not fawn over the transphobic ramblings of an outspoken eugenicist doctor as a speaker of truth and wisdom.

personally i think we deserve better than that. i think we should have higher self esteem.

fucked up that this is all just landlords swatting their own buildings to get rid of all the working class residents so they can raise the rent or sell to a developer who'll flip them into high end condos or w/e

like it's a real estate scam! it's a fucking land grab! a fire for the insurance money!

There’s a lot in here that deserves a pull quote, but this is the most egregious. I need people to recognize the gravity of the situation here in Chicago;

"The ones that are getting out are coming home to no home," Watson said.
According to her, after the raid occurred, building management stole or threw out residents belongings, including visas and important documents.

ICIRR is still trying to determine the identities of all the people detained in the raid. Castro said that the organization usually can do that by following up with family members or loved ones. "In this instance, there was nobody left to work with," she said. The only detainee name they're sure of is that of a person who passed their Venezuelan passport to a neighbor as they were being taken away.

The thing is, they're trying to convince the American people who will appreciate it that they're the *bad* guys. The Hindutva combine & regime has been doing the same on social media since 2015; lynching videos, hate speech, etc & on.

Fascists love being evil. They may deny it constantly, but that's just part of the game--drive everyone else insane trying to point out the hypocrisy.
