If you're feeling angry and scared and helpless right now, I cannot stress how much better it is to do some kind of IRL activism rather than purely doomposting and doomscrolling.

weirdly silent about ICE killing an unarmed woman in cold blood, surely there's no politics at play here
Violence is always unacceptable, and threats of violence have no place in public discourse. Our thoughts are with Charlie Kirk and his family.

And now, to distract you from the state of the world, here's a comic preview page of Lex Luthor fighting a bear for no reason.

Hey folks, just saw a thread of people getting rage baited by some 10 follower Twitter tourist. They're here to piss in the pool, because their pool is nothing but piss. If you want to screenshot names for blocking, aces, but I strongly suggest just block. Deny them the dopamine hit of cruelty.

This seems to be the Democratic party's blind spot.
They have a terrible habit of trying to run against fascists by pointing out the fascists promised things they didn't deliver. People who like fascists and support them aren't rational. Those voters are getting the racist, misogynist hate regime they wanted and they love it.

Grant Morrison once observed, in an interview, that "our culture went from Star Trek to the Walking Dead in less than a generation" and the has stuck with me ever since.
Had a convo with owner last night and it stands out how little imagination we have for a better world.

Media is dominated by anti-heroes and gray morality. This is how we let ourselves off easy for not doing anything. This is how we douse hope.

It appears ICE murdered someone in cold blood today and their plan is — per usual — to create a fog of lies so the killer does not face justice. We simply can't let that happen. The shooter has to be arrested and so does Bovino. They can't just kill people on the street.

Since even small children can easily identify weakness in each other and exploit them, we must logically conclude that they don’t threaten to impeach because they don’t want to. The question we need to ask is “why?”
Surreal seeing Trump sweat over the possibility of impeachment, and implore Republicans to win/cheat in the midterms not for any legislative agenda but to avoid getting impeached, while leading Democrats go "oh no, not that" when asked about impeachment in the face egregiously impeachable offenses.
If impeachment is so useless, why does Trump fear it?

During the Obama administration, the GOP weren’t going on TV and whining about how they just couldn’t do anything; at every level, every day, they did everything they could to obstruct & largely succeeded.

Warren’s is not a sober assessment of the situation, it is learned helplessness.
Warren: "Republicans seem to be able to engage in only one action -- bow down to Trump. And until we either get some Rs on our side, which doesn't look likely, or hit that election in November & get D majorities in the House and Senate, we have a president who has no restraints on what he's doing"

Feels like everybody on here is a bit on edge these last couple days; seems like a lotta people feel angry and powerless over the news and are looking for somebody to take it out on.

Remember to be kind to each other. That person you have internet beef with didn’t invade Venezuela.

One of my old friends (absolutely offline) was going through some scary stuff last year -- and I, helpless, live so far away. And so I asked what I could do to support her best.
