“This heckin’ pupperino fucking hates La Migra,” to paraphrase from @weratedogs.com

This is Chop. He was shot and killed by masked assailants in plain clothes who go by ICE. They showed up at his door "looking for migrants after receiving a tip." The son of the family asked if they could wait before entering the home while he put Chop away in the bathroom, as the dog can be aggressive with strangers.
According to the family, it is at this point that the son went to his pickup truck to retrieve his ID and a Border Patrol agent entered the home, opened the bathroom door, and shot Chop. None of the agents helped the family, who desperately tried to render aid to Chop, as he bled to death on the kitchen floor. Unsurprisingly, the agent who shot their dog then hid from them and refused to give his name. Even more unsurprising, they did not find any evidence of the migrants they were there to terrorize in the first place.
Do not open your door for these fucking losers. Rest easy Chop

Every now and then I remember the press reaction to Elon Musk claiming we live in a simulation was broadly “Real Life Tony Stark Elon Musk Posits Mind-Blowing Thought Experiment 🤯” instead of “This Billionaire Nutjob Doesn’t Think Other People Are Real”

You nip at my heels
like
a hungry piranha
nag nagging
me to be the woman
you are,
that’s a dream that
sailed long ago,
when you first
said-
get over it;

Now you obsess
that I am not you,
it’s something you
fling
like the morning
paper
and it lands,
it lands-
with a thud

It’s impossible to overstate how much “abolish ice” is the normie position now here in chicago — just countless random moms at toddler soccer on a park district field asking me where I bought my anti-ice t-shirt. average people don’t like our neighborhoods being terrorized.

A friend ran the Chicago marathon today and said he couldn’t count the number of FUCK ICE signs along the way.

How about this F*CK YOU; you bigoted, cops who misshandled this postal worker. He died after police mistook his stroke for drug impairment. This man would still be alive today if these lazy a**es simply did their job.

Extinguishing MLK's Eternal Flame is both outrageous and a hell of a metaphor for right now www.wsbtv.com/news/local/a...

Eternal flame at Martin Luther King Jr.’s Atlanta burial site destroyed

Police say the man also urinated in the reflective pool.

Pleasant day out in my neighborhood in Chicago. There was a farmer’s market and people are out strolling, chatting, and sitting out on porches. Just like every weekend.

Except now most of us are wearing whistles to alert neighbors if unidentified guys in tactical gear show up to kidnap people.

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

In the 2010s, this country's elites were thrown onto social platforms with everyone else and could finally read what we all think about them and it caused them so much psychic damage that they decided to destroy both the internet and democracy to make sure nothing like it ever happened again.

I used to be able to keep these DAILY MEMOs to under 3 minutes, the last couple videos have been impossible to. ICE is escalating in Los Angeles, just look at the article version with every incident highlighted. This is only what we could confirm, only what we know of. @lataco.bsky.social

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?

The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.

At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.
