Great Replacement theory involves cutting off immigration, mass expulsions, and replacing those removed by forcing white women to bear children by any means necessary. It’s fucking insane bullshit, and it is the ideological fixation of modern conservatism.

Listen to leftists in Appalachia; they've known exactly who this motherfucker was since his book came out and liberals still loved him.

I learned at an engineering conference recently that one crypto mine in TX, 100s of MW, makes more money off ERCOT demand response markets than it does off crypto repeat: TX ratepayers pay them more to sometimes stop mining than they make by actual mining just bananas misuse of power markets 🔌💡

Crypto-mining accounts for 2% of all U.S. electricity usage. (Bitcoin alone consumes the same amount of energy as the entire state of Utah.)

Please don’t “both sides” the “violent political rhetoric” conversation when one side regularly glorifies and intimidates with guns and the other side speaks out to end gun violence. These are not the same.

I think it's terrible how the people driving around with "liberal hunting license" bumper stickers were made to fear for their lives due to political violence

A reminder that Donald Trump has spent years fanning the flames and fomenting political violence. Recall 2016, when he said the "Second Amendment people" could stop Hillary Clinton's Supreme Court picks if she won. This era of violent political rhetoric should've ended in 2016.

Daniel O'Brian wrote a book called "How to Fight Presidents: Defending Yourself Against the Badasses Who Ran This Country" which is a comedy book based on history and his love of it and Presidential history And he got investigated by the Secret Service.

from a lawyer friend:

This is pretty much a confession that more than half the cops in Phoenix only signed up so they could beat up Blacks and Hispanics.

The Phoenix police union is warning that more than half of its officers are thinking about quitting unless city leaders fight oversight from the Justice Department

One of the things I found reporting my book was that sheriffs appear to be uniquely bad at their actual jobs despite the political bluster. For example, they do not keep people safe, they do not protect those in their custody, they do not help victims of DV, they do not collect evidence etc etc

I know Greg Abbot is a bad person but independent from that he seems to be an extremely bad governor even in ostensibly non-partisan parts of the job

I'm certain the P2025 position was not fully explained. They don't want to outlaw porn, they want to criminalize it. And they say anything LGBTQ+ related is porn. Gay? You're a criminal, go to prison. Trans? Prison. Dad's Playboy collection in the attic? Prison.

Granted, as a straight white lady, I’d be extremely far down the list, but the notion that my not-terribly-steamy romances would be bannable and prosecutable as porn in a Project2025 world is one of those “laugh hysterically while they’re dragging you away” things.

Let's improve the comics industry to the point where our most beloved comics creators can afford to make comics.

Asked in an interview if I had any upcoming new projects to promote. It always hurts to say, "no". I haven't been making new comics bc comics takes time and time is money and every month is an emergency. Needing money NOW means doing what it takes to make money NOW. Not next month, or longer. (1)

look, the answer to “crops will rot in the fields” after mass deportation is “chain gangs from for-profit prisons” they’re just not showing that card right now

Mass deportation is a kitchen table issue, and Trump and the GOP need to be hounded about it. "Kids will come from school to homes without their parents. Businesses would lose workers, some would just shutter. Crops would rot in the fields.” zacharymueller.substack.com/p/mass-depor...

This is true chutzpah, considering how hard Cheney worked all his life to put the presidency above the law.

CLASSIFYING ABORTION AS A 14TH AMENDMENT ISSUE IS NOT "TEMPERING" LANGUAGE ON ABORTION, IT IS EXPLICITLY IDENTIFYING FETAL PERSONHOOD AS A PARTY GOAL THAT'S WHY THE GOP AGREED TO IT THEY LIKE IT IT DOES WHAT THEY WANT IT TO DO: ALLOW THE PROSECUTION OF ABORTION AS HOMICIDE

Trump-backed Republican platform tempers language on abortionwww.reuters.com The Republican Party released its platform on Monday that denies anti-abortion activists within the party the far-reaching language they sought on abortion and embraces the views of its presidential candidate, Donald Trump.

People within the fandom already used to back in the day. I would get a lot of homophobic shit lobbed my way, and the comic labeled adult. AND MY STUFF IS SO TAME I hope the “let’s be prudish to appease the masses” crowd is paying attention. You aren’t safe from these ppl either. Never have been.

That cute top you think you look smashing in? Porn. Two cute gay guys holding hands? Porn. An honest and important book for girls about periods? Porn. They truly are this headfucked. "It's porn" will become the new "I smell weed in your car" that will allow them to legally destroy your life.

I want to double click on Project 2025's concerns about porn. Not only do they argue pornography should be outlawed at the federal level, but that anyone who produces/distributes it should be imprisoned. What's more, teachers and librarians who "purvey" porn should be registered as sex offenders.

My house now has one fewer porch than it used to.

Note the two major topics du jour and which one has Republicans scrambling: Trump and Miller are absolutely *incandescent* over Project 2025 being out in the open. If your neighbors start talking about whether Biden is too old, point out to them that the other side wants to criminalize teachers.

If you wonder whether this protracted bedwetting over whether Biden should stay in or not is largely to Republicans' advantage, take note of how contentedly they're just sitting aside and letting Democrats fight it out in the open.

"I wanna vote for Harris, not Biden!" Dude. If you're right about Biden not being up to the job, you're ALREADY voting for Harris. She'll be there to replace him AFTER TRUMP IS DEFEATED. And if you're wrong about Biden, why give Trump the gift of a nomination fight?

The man is deeply flawed, and I no longer seek out all his songs, but he definitely had the musical chops. I found the original "Misty" mawkish and disgustingly twee. Ray's version is sweet but also upbeat, fun, musically complex, and very, very country. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSO8...

Anyone looking at the precinct numbers in 2012 and 2020 knows that Bernie Bros aren't the story. Getting the Black vote out was, which is why the GOP is going all in on racism. Not voting in protest means you send a signal: "I can be ignored."

Republicans know Trump's agenda would be disasterously unpopular: From The Washington Post Editorial Board: "The former president wants the 2024 GOP platform to be anodyne, but don’t be fooled. He has an extreme agenda." Read it: buff.ly/4csXz23
