Just a reminder, every single one of those ICE recruitment "Are you a loser? Be a Nazi stormtrooper!" ads you see on TV or hear on the radio aren't free. Your taxes paid for it

What a successful ceasefire.

they/them might be giants ☭ @babadookspinoza.bsky.social · 5h

“Israeli” ceasefires only ever apply to the other party. They’ll continue to kill whomever they want, whenever they want until they are stopped. They see themselves as occupying an altogether different moral plane than their enemies, like any colonizer.

BREAKING: Three Palestinians were killed after Israeli quadcopter drones opened fire on residents inspecting their homes in the Shujaiyya neighborhood, east of Gaza City.

Word to the wise: do not fly internationally into Logan. All of the major public detainments of Legal Residents and Citizens at airports have been out of Logan.

Kat Stuart @luckykatstuart.bsky.social · 1d

Anyone in Boston an immigration lawyer or know one who can help this woman? Her husband is detained at Logan over a dismissed misdemeanor from 2017. He’s a legal resident of the US. She just asked for help an hour ago.

No other film ending has ever gone this hard. Every time this rolls up on-screen I immediately think, “Damn right I have.”

Final shot of SUSPIRIA before the credits roll, which begin with the following:

One observation about having a political post go viral on Instagram this week: almost all of the commenters who disagree are harping on vaccines like it’s 2020. “You bowed down when you took the shot!” Etc. Seems to me…

Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members.

They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

I will give the IL Staties credit, at least they show their names and badge numbers when they are acting like abusive fascist pigs serving the wrong side of morality
