My hottest take is that letting cops park in red zones for mundane errands and coffee breaks; I think “you can break the law at your discretion as a job perk” is the small domino that ends in the large domino of “shooting protesters in the face with rubber bullets”
It must be wild to get to abuse the public then pay for it with the public's money

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

The phrase "trans activist" is goofy because like 95% of the time it's used it refers to a trans person simply existing.
Media, pointing at a woman buying a coffee: behold, a trans activist.
Woman: buying coffee is not activism stop being so fucking weird
Media: trans activist criticizes media

The longer this ball game goes the less sleep I get tonight. As a trade off the Blue Jays get to face a more spent pitching staff.

This is the line that Dems need to push. It can't be simply. "Political violence is bad" it MUST be "Political violence is bad and Trump and his ilk are responsible for creating conditions ripe for political violence"
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) on the shooting of Charlie Kirk:
"Political violence, unfortunately, has ramped up in this country ... I think there are people who are fomenting it in this country. I think the president's rhetoric often foments it."

I hope every loaf of bread Joanne buys for the rest of her life goes bad faster than it should.
I hope Rowling stubs her toe every day for the rest of her life
it appears that @bsky.app have suspended the account of @jessiegender because a trans person saying "I wish ill on JK Rowling" is against the rules, so let me say with my loud cis voice that I too wish ill on all perpetrators of hate speech against trans people

Joking about crab rave aside, I do think this public outpouring of disgust at the death of hated villains is a powerful, useful thing. I think it's good that we do it, and I think, broadly, that it serves three functions.
