i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.
This is a real photograph of Washington, DC this week, where the United States president has ordered military occupation in peacetime, and ordered the display of colossal portraits of himself.

Every time a reporter mentions the Epstein list, Donold gets pissed.
It’s a helpful reminder that Donold is on the Epstein list.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

Kristi Noem didn’t approve FEMA rescue teams for over 72 hours after the Texas floods, following a rule she imposed that required her personal sign-off on any operation over $100K.
This is inexcusable. She should resign.

We live in a nation where I am now sending out alerts about what the U.S. attorney general is doing in our name.
It’s a lot to sit with.
It’s going to get a lot darker before it starts getting lighter, but I will keep doing what I do. And, it will get lighter again.

ALERT: Attorney General Pam Bondi is apparently threatening some of those providing medical care to their minor transgender patients.
If you receive one of these subpoenas, please reach out, have your lawyer do so, or send me a copy. My email is in bio, as is my Signal.

By 2030, 1 in 4 women in developed countries will remain childfree.
Up to 45% will be single by choice.
Society will frame this as a crisis.
Governments will panic over birth rates.
This is about choice though…
It's about women walking away from the roles that kept men comfortable and powerful.

“Secret police” are your words, not mine. Seems like you’ve been giving them a lot of thought.
Unlike NYPD, your agents don’t identify themselves & wear masks that cover their faces. Now they ignore judges’ rulings, too.
What law enforcement agents are supposed to uphold … is the rule of law.
