Allegorical tales must always be told using animals to keep humans from thinking they aren’t allegorical tales. Even masterful (and, alas, sloppy) modern attempts keep proving problematic when idiocy exceeds the artist’s expectations and some folks take it literally AND absolutely wrong.

The sky isn’t falling, it’s burning.
The rivers run red with “byproducts.”
The land is barren from intensive farming.
The seas are full of death and plastic.
There is no more Truth; just advertising and propaganda.
There is no God, only The Market.
There is no community, only competition and fear.

ICE raided Los Angeles elementary schools in an attempt to kidnap small children. They hid their identities, claimed they weren't ICE, and lied to school authorities that they had "permission" from the parents to take the children out. School officials luckily didn't fall for it.

He literally shot at her!! Watch the slomo at the end of the video.
Watch the slow motion: it appears to me that the officers discuss the photographer and reporter before the one on the end fires on them (it looks to me like he's aiming at the camera, not the reporter, but you decide)

I am sorry, folks, but if you’re surprised by what’s happening in California right now then you either really have not been paying any attention at all or you are stuck in an echo chamber and should re-examine where you get your news from. All of this is 100% on brand.

Ed Martin is expanding his operation, and it’s as dangerous as it sounds. The US Department of Justice’s pardon attorney, Ed Martin Jr, is now laying the groundwork to pardon even more of Trump’s allies, this time focusing on the Republican fake electors who tried to help overturn the 2020 election.

Patriarchy being to blame doesn’t mean men are. Those are different things. Patriarchy’s supported by many women (internalized misogyny is a big problem) and opposed by many men. Patriarchy damages men almost as much as women. Patriarchy depends on strict othering between the sexes. Humanize instead

There IS a male loneliness epidemic. It is real. We have raised a bunch of men who have NO IDEA how to make or maintain friendships, so they place ALL of their social/emotional needs on their partners. When nobody wants to sign up for that they end up completely alone, which is NOT HEALTHY.

I was inspired by 45’s recent defacement of the USDA, and the godawful slogan, “Growing America”... 😬

Fighting for truly UNIVERSAL human rights and a functional government benefits ALL of us. It leaves no cracks that opponents can use to divide us, and we can say to the officer on the street, the agent at his station, the aid in the halls of governance, “We are fighting for you, too. Come join us.”

How ICE is becoming a secret police force under the Trump administration
The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement meets most criteria that have defined secret police forces in authoritarian regimes. And the worst may be yet to come.

US pushes nations facing tariffs to approve Musk’s Starlink. Wow the corruption. An internal State Department memo lays it bare:“As the government of Lesotho negotiates a trade deal with the United States, it hopes that licensing Starlink demonstrates goodwill and intent to welcome U.S. businesses.”

I’m pretty damn sure the real reason Trumperdink wants to ban trans folk from military service is because he’s afraid they won’t fire on civil rights protests and won’t use force to round up other queer folk when ordered to. Plus serving with them makes the other troops more likely to do similarly.

Das Drumpf Reich finishes dismantling the US and collapses the global economy, but their bid to split the world apart into their own private technofascist dictatorships triggers a massive global backlash and we finally get fully automated luxury gay space communism. 🤷🏻♀️

The Trump administration has halted $1 billion in funding for mental health services for children, claiming that the programs, which were established under a bipartisan law aimed at curbing gun violence in schools, are no longer in “the best interest of the federal government.”

When I say that the past few years have broken my heart I’m not just being metaphorical. I’m seeing a cardiologist. My heart’s forgotten how to beat. It staggers, waltzing out of rhythm, no longer willing to march in time to a world where it could be so readily, thoroughly, and repeatedly discarded.
