There isn't a god, Jesus nor ... miracles. If you believe in them, fine that is your right. However, if you're attacking Gaza because Jebus told you too ... fuck off and actually read the book you monsters. There are some bad actors there, I get that but you can't cut aid meds/food/water & bomb

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

The cruelty is the point

Joshua Reed Eakle 🗽 @joshuaeakle.com · 4d

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

Trump destroy package

derek guy @dieworkwear.bsky.social · 3d

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.

Heartbroken because I'm certain he's neither the first, nor will he be the last.

Heartbroken because cops of all flavors have always been dangerous to Autistic people, and especially Autistic BIPOC.

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.

He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.

A First Lady who lied about having a college degree on her immigration application, who is married to someone who rapes children and arrests his political opponents, and has a "back door channel" to an evil despot who kidnaps children and assassinates his political opponents.

Incredible.

My favorite thing on our walk was this decorative set of steps.

Three tiered steps with ceramics embedded in the rise of each step.

Closeup of ceramics. In the middle you can see Alice

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa
