The thing about all these men is they could date anybody. They're rich, they're famous. They could bag socialites or models or actresses or whoever. Instead they single out the most vulnerable women and girls they can find. They cannot form relationships with women who are their peers.

As Black History Month approaches, a reminder that HORROR NOIRE, the best-reviewed documentary of 2019, is at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, but is still not “Certified Fresh” because there are only 38 reviews (RT says limited release movies require 40). Is this the year? Will you answer the call?

Calling up your Dem senators and thanking them for doing this is how you encourage them to hold the line, no matter how low your estimation of them is
👀 Every Senate Democrat + Collins and Murkowski just voted for the Bernie Sanders amendment to repeal the $75 billion in additional ICE funding under Trump’s “big beautiful bill.” The measure failed 49-51.

ICE took the flower man in Echo Park 40 minutes ago. He’s at this corner every day. I’ve bought flowers from the man and woman here for anniversaries and birthdays. Lemmy loves to smell them whenever we walk by in the mornings. I was just at the street corner 15 minutes before it happened. Fuck.

People already working hard to prove how perfect Alex Pretti was. To show he didn't "deserve" to be killed. But it's a trap folks. You're only feeding into a dynamic where people who are considered lesser get no protection. You don't have to be an Alex Pretti to deserve to live.

In 2021 people on the right screamed about freedom and bodily autonomy.
They refused to wear masks. Refused to get vaccinated. Said it was “tyranny”.
In 2026 they’re urging “complete compliance” with unidentified masked men who are shooting people in the streets.
