my trembling hand aims the gun at the Turkish ice cream guy. He winks and I realize I'm pointing an ice cream at him. He is already emptying my gun- each bullet a tiny ice cream cone

#ICE #Remigration

a german white guy who is a fan of AfD in an ICE tshirt. he has reddish facial hair & some hair on his head. it is difficult to tell how much hair on his head though as his head shape is one i’ve not yet seen. like they put rubber bands around the midpoint of his head when the fontanelle was still soft to form some mutated peanut shape of some sort. of course his pfp is an ai cartoon version that omits these details.
