The reason that the language of domestic abuse and the language of authoritarianism looks the same is because it's just the same thing on a different scale.

#DomesticViolenceWheel

The two top things recommended to me on this one streaming service are, I shit you not, The Republican National Convention & a cartoon about an assassin monkey.

Today on the train I saw a girl loving on her man and I was shocked. Because it was that girl. She really did it. She got herself a man in finance. 6’5”. Blue eyes. Trust fund. (I’m assuming the last two based on the striped dress shirt he was wearing. )

also and I feel like I buried the lede here: it calls for the people who CREATE queer media to be imprisoned. That'd be people like me. Or any other queer creator you love. Any queen who's been on drag race. Chappel Roan. Janelle Monae. Anyone who's made a piece of queer media. Imprisoned.

Psst: Project 2025 is terrifying for a lot of reasons but also because on page 5 it calls for teachers and librarians who grant access to books that are maligned as pornography (which just means anything LGBTQ) to be registered as sex offenders. Pass it on.

Wow I’ve been so busy this week I went direct to the ‘following’ tab on insta.

I grabbed this off Tumblr a while back and am thinking of tattooing it directly on my brain

Like I spent a lot of time last night thinking about how this might affect the election before I realized that doing so was a shitty use of my energy

my father just wandered into the house with a completely disgusted look on his face, muttered “JD fuckin’ Vance?!” and wandered back out to the grill if you want to know how this is going over with normie liberals

Picking Vance means the party thinks they’re invulnerable, with population, disinformation, and judges on lock. There is no center to reach for.

Only the cartoonists truly understand the assignment.

The latest cover of the New Yorker:

Part of me (naively?) thinks that getting clipped in the ear won’t make a difference in trump’s ratings past the next few poling cycles. Unlike Reagan you either worship Trump or you don’t and the severity was so minor, and he’s been such a shit-talker about shootings- there’s no precedent here

Could everyone stop explaining to folks living in existential terror why it's important that Joe Biden win the election and instead explain to Joe Biden why it's important that Joe Biden win the election?

in 2013 I saw a man get a 100,000 hour probation on the SomethingAwful forums and today I saw him come off probation and immediately pick up the same argument, quoting a reply from 2013, absolute next-level hater, I can't even imagine, my man is the Count of Monte Posters

spent my whole life seeing, among other things, "liberal hunting license" bumper stickers. a "fun" little "joke" about killing my loved ones.

Well I'm given to understand that today & for a VERY limited time, our nation's political violence party is shocked—shocked!—to learn that we currently live in a world of normalized political violence, and would like very much to know who is to blame.

from now until Election Day, we connect every story back to Project 2025 Eg: The FBI is currently investigating the Trump shooter. But did you know that Project 2025 will place the FBI under Trump’s direct control, so he can decide which acts of political violence get investigated, and which don’t?

People seem upset that an American exercised his Second Amendment rights for the express purpose that amendment was made for.

reshared for alt text and AYFKM.. I bet these are the same people who tell you AI is inevitable and whatever other things are absolute truths and you should simply get used to them now.. our media tipped its fascism loving and fostering hand long ago, but cripes

The perception of an inevitable fascist victory in Europe is largely just the wishcasting of mainstream media publications saying that fascist victory is inevitable. See how the BBC spins National Rally's loss.

Thanks to the NYPL my weekend afternoons have been spent at a cafe devouring Stan Sakai’s Usagi Yojimbo (Rabbit Bodyguard) collected volumes. There are about ten and each one is like 550 pages- each lasts me three trips or so. Sakai has been writing his stories for like 40 years now.

Honestly a real leader would go all in on exploiting the SCOTUS loopholes as hard and as fast as possible to force the legislative branch into some fucking action on them

“Now that we know felons can be white, we’re massive fans of crime.”

I don’t even know where to begin with this.

The camps are going to be such a relief. I’m gonna get fit. I’m gonna get cut. No more computer job. Or teeth!

Guys can we let Joe budden be a mediocre brain dead president I’m just so tired remembering the hourly outrages of the first trump term. I’m not sure I have it in me to protest three nights a week next year.

A strange thing about now is in New York we have a party affiliated mayor and governor- but I have strong doubts that one or both of them would stand against trump. Some people are just straight up lying about what party they should be in.
