best thing you’ll watch today (well, at least before the games start)
Listen to this Border Patrol agent cry about how he's going to be DOXXED after being arrested for drunkenly barging into a woman's restroom with a loaded gun, demanding a date from the woman inside, and then punching the arresting officers.

we need MAGA to see these follow-ups. forcibly *see* them … like Clockwork Orange.

they need to see that it’s all performative evil.

their jack-booted thug boogeymen are finally real … and it’s THEM.
In April, state + fed police raided a bday party near Austin, arresting ~50 people including nine kids.

Cops claimed w/o evidence they’d busted a Tren de Aragua gathering, + only charged two people w/ a crime.

Now, the local DA has dropped both charges

Pending drug charges have been abandoned from the multi-agency April operation that supposedly targeted Tren de Aragua and led to multiple deportations.

this is worth a read. it's more than just what you see in the image (wordplay you might not get unless you know that the Spanish word for lawyer is "abogado").

it seems like everyone is just *over it* today. I’m seeing folks get testy everywhere: here, in group chats, work meetings, texts.

hope the weekend helps.

if people really thought about what’s happening, it’d be all we talked and acted about. I feel like there’s a hurricane and the levee’s about to collapse and instead of folks evacuating and volunteer sandbag brigades, we’re all watching streaming shows and browsing Amazon to make our Xmas lists.
while we're all thinking about rapist pedophiles, the undermining of our constitutional democracy, war in the Caribbean, Sarah Kendzior's 3-day suspension, affordability, 3I/ATLAS, LEONARD BERNSTEIN, AI and spiraling, and whatever else ...

IIRC he actually wrote simply
“Wood chipper, feet first”

my first thought was “wonder what the mods will do”

my second thought was “to hell with anyone and everyone remotely defending child rape. full stop.”

you couldn’t fit a list of “moments that should have ended it for him” in 300 characters. probably not 1500.
