PSA:

If reading wasn’t political, they wouldn’t be banning books.

This is fascism or if it’s not fascism then it’s something spelled the same, pronounced the same, and carries the same exact meaning.

Story idea:

It’s like 1984 double-speak, but it’s a drug. And the Government deals it out. But then the Government gets hooked on it too. And then we pretty much end up about here.

Trump: "In recent weeks the Navy has supported our mission to blow the cartel terrorists the hell out of the water. You see that. And you know, there are no boats in the water anymore. We can't find any ... what we're doing is actually an act of kindness."

in light of the Vance’s attacks on @joyannreid.bsky.social, here’s an excerpt on his book where he basically admits he benefited from DEI programs at Yale.

(These programs came from the struggles of Black women. I hope Vance is grateful.)

One of the things that sucks about this era is having to think about the racists all the time, because they’re so boring. They have like, three tools in their toolkit, so we get to say things like “oh look, they’re using the hammer again”

This propaganda video was shot by one of Noem's tag along podcasters. For the actual facts on what happened here at the Broadview City Hall, see reports by local Chicago journalists.
Do not trust anything Noem or the Trump admin says. Not today, not ever.

I'm sorry: "if I wish to see a virgin on-screen"?

My Favorite Actress Is Not Human
Tilly Norwood doesn’t need a hairstylist, has no regrettable posts, and if you wish to see a virgin on-screen, this is one of your better chances. That’s because she’s AI.
