ICE detained Purple Heart veteran William Vermie for hours at the Whipple Federal Building.

He says he’s speaking out because he’s white, he has privilege and if he doesn’t use it to stand up for others, who will?

That is what solidarity looks like.

When this is all over I hope every ICE agent’s life is an endless nightmare of tension and inconvenience.

You can picture how it must have felt in there. Four fucking Nazis with their shit-eating grins squeezing their fat asses into a booth at a family-owned Mexican place poisoning the entire room with their smug impunity. Desecrating a place of community www.welcometohellworld.com/we-must-love...
Clearly there's no shortage of horrors to choose from of late but for some reason this one in particular has really chilled me to the fucking bone. Last week a group of pigs had lunch at a Mexican restaurant called El Tapatio in Willmar, Minnesota. "Staff at the restaurant were frightened," an eye witness told the Star Tribune. You can surely imagine that they were. You can picture exactly how it must have felt in there. Four fucking Nazis with their shit-eating grins squeezing their fat asses into a booth at a family-owned Mexican place poisoning the entire room with their smug impunity. Desecrating a place of community. There's one like it where you live too. In almost every town in the country. We love Mexican food here so much. They forced these people to prepare their food and to serve them all the while knowing that they were going to ruin their lives after. With full bellies. The threat hanging in the air. Of course they did ruin them. They arrested a dishwasher and the two owners a few hours later after the restaurant closed. Can you imagine being made to wash the dishes used to feed the men who are waiting to kidnap you or worse? Cooking and plating their meals? I wonder if they put the same care they usually do into it or if their shaking hands made the work suffer?

Kahless tells us that the darker it is, the more the smallest light stands out. A true warrior tries to be a light in the darkness, a beacon to others of honor to find and join and blaze all the brighter, and push back the dark together.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

www.nature.com/immersive/d4...
This line graph illustrates the percentage change in agency staff levels from the previous year for nine major U.S. federal scientific and health organizations between the fiscal years 2016 and 2025. The agencies tracked include the CDC, Department of Energy, EPA, FDA, NASA, NIH, NIST, NOAA, and NSF. For the majority of the timeline between 2016 and 2023, the agencies show relatively stable fluctuations, generally staying within a range of +5% to -5% change per year. However, there is a dramatic and uniform plummet starting in the 2024–25 period. Every agency depicted shows a sharp downward trajectory, with staffing losses ranging from approximately -15% to over -25%. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) shows the most significant decline, dropping to roughly -26%, while the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) shows the least severe but still substantial drop at approximately -15%.

Thousands of our neighbors are pushed into homelessness not because of personal shortcomings, but because our systems have failed to ensure access to basic needs:

🔺Affordable housing
🔺Healthcare
🔺Economic stability.

I’m usually so bad at taking my own advice, but I’m gonna hang onto this one because I still feel this way. Art by itself won’t save us by itself, but community can. And I think it will.

Not to be unkind, but I am so impatient about the “what’s the point of making my little zines/comics/crafts/art when the world is on fire” sentiments. I get it, but saving the world is not a responsibility shouldered by your art! That’s what being a neighbor, a friend, and hell, a citizen is for!!!

T-Rex: Sometimes in our lives we face conflict! We disagree with someone and we MUST work it out. T-Rex: Or MUST we? T-Rex: Because I've just found out that everyone LIED to us and there's a whole lifestyle where you never have to face ANY conflict!! Dromiceiomimus: WHAT?! I've been doing the difficult labour of working out differences in my interpersonal relationships for my entire life AND I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO?? T-Rex: Right?! Utahraptor: What's this incredible lifestyle called? T-Rex: "Conflict avoidance". T-Rex: You simply avoid ever confronting anything - OR anyone! You just act like it doesn't bother you - fake it till you make it, baby - and become a PEOPLE-PLEASER, always agreeing to what OTHERS want! Utahraptor: Wow! Who WOULDN'T want to please people? T-Rex: EXACTLY!! Off panel: But wait - it says here that never resolving conflicts leads to stunted emotional growth?! T-Rex: Sounds great, I don't need my dang emotions growing any larger ANYWAY! Off panel: I don't think that's what that means! T-Rex: OH NO

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Green arrives at the scene as Blue is twisting himself into unusual positions, turning his head up, down, and upside-down. Green: What are you doing? Blue: I'm realigning my balance crystals. Green: Your what? Blue: One of them has drifted to the wrong part of the labyrinth, and I'm trying to wiggle it back in place. Green: ...What in where? Blue: A calcium crystal in the vestibular labyrinth of the inner ear. Green looks awestruck as he finally comprehends what is happening. Twisting himself onto a loop to turn his head towards Green, Blue looks at him with a confused frown. Green: Ooh, so it's a medical thing. Blue: Wait, what did you think I'm doing?
