Ok - Now what

Avoiding the horrors by reading horror. I like comics and movies and books and history. I don't like politics but it's happening to me anyway. Warning: bad at social media.
There's something grimly appropriate as a MAGA endgame to see immigration enforcement agents full on becoming those red stormtrooper praetorian guard guys from Star Wars
I feel like I've got slightly less hate for the middle of the country than most of Bsky. Texas and FL could move up one level each if their far right politics changed. Louisiana is on the cusp of "maybe" if I lived in New Orleans.
This is gutting - the whole article, covering the aftermath of South Shore, Lincoln Square, and Rogers Park raids. Snapshots of daily normal life disrupted by the invasion of alien evil that's visited itself on our city.
Yes! This energy. Don’t roll over out of fear. Make them actually do the things they’re threatening. Don’t comply in advance. “No, you move.”
Stop scrolling and post two characters who being you joy and happiness
That's not what the article says. It says he's defunding the main international vaccination nonprofit based on "safety concerns" that are roundly rejected by actual physicians and public health researchers.
Duquan's last scene in The Wire. The endless cycle of addiction and substance use disorder claiming this sweet kid...
Sen. Duckworth to Democratic leadership: "stop looking at the fucking rule book and let’s fight back." More of this please.
There were plenty of factories in the area over the years (see map from www.madeinchicagomuseum.com/map/). It's not too far from the location of the Union Stock Yards either, and a short trip to a huge concentration of steel production.
And so like, especially for a female Senator, this would seem to be something You Should Care About??? The court's direct analogies were firing women for having young children, forcing women to pay more for benefits, and punishing same-sex sexual harassment. Does she not see where all this leads?
I mean it was clearly stated through the entirety of their *own* campaign. Like, at the DNC Harris explicitly warned about "Donald Trump with no guardrails." They fundraised off this exact scenario. How tf are they acting surprised now?
