This is not normal. This is not okay.
The fact that an ICE detention center is in Natchez, Mississippi is so fucking ironic I can’t even.

I like how, in this age, Trump “revokes scientific finding” about climate change and I’m supposed to - what - accept that he suddenly learned a secret no one else knows? What an abhorrent piece of absolute shit. #fucktrump

@sgj.bsky.social I just wanted to mention that after reading so many of your works in random order, somehow I heard about Demon Theory, which I am reading now, and WHOA.

Growing up, I was always irrationally worried about being depressed or suicidal. (Surprise! I have anxiety instead.) But the past year or so, I’ve come to discover a profound chasm between will to live (which I have) and struggle to exist in this world (which every fucking day, people make worse).

If you’re a bot farmer, you have no soul. If you’re an actual person with these views, you are inhuman.
How do you stay informed and keep the hatred away at the same time?

NYT video review confirms this. Pretti had a 2nd Am right to carry a firearm. But even if he didn’t he wasn’t pointing it at anyone or threatening agents. There is no legal justification for the execution-style shooting & no basis for DHS’s claim he was there to massacre them. He was a helper.
Brandishing is a legal term that means to display all or part of a firearm, or otherwise make its presence known to another person to intimidate them, regardless of whether it's directly visible to that person. Given the video, that's not what Alex Pretti was doing when he was shot & killed.
Important context, this is the victim’s behavior BEFORE being tackled
He’s not threatening, he’s not brandishing, he’s filming
He’s not threatening, he’s not brandishing, he’s filming

A statement released by the parents of Alex Pretti.

The hatred and cruelty in the souls of #fucknoem and #fuckhoman is unbounded. I truly don’t know how to live in this world when every day, monsters are getting away with this. The arc of history may be long and bend towards justice, but right now, we’re living under the shadow of evil.

Congress needs to act. And if the executive won’t respect it, at least we throw off the shitty covering if “democracy.” As long as Congress does NOTHING, it adds legitimacy.

This week has been overwhelmingly horrible. We don’t give up. We don’t bow down. We don’t change core principles to please oppressors and assholes. I’m going to take some time to lick my wounds and heal; and I’m only getting angrier.

In all the craziness and disgust of the last few days, this one truly makes me sad. I grew up with Sesame Street, Mr. Rogers, Lamb Chop, Arthur - fuck, even Barney - and that future generations won’t have that kind of programming because of a Fascist Fuck is enraging and numbing.
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has been dissolved, ending its 58 years as the primary funder for PBS, NPR and local TV and radio stations

People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.
