God, the stuff that was posted about Miley Cyrus 🤮
Amazing how fast things moved from “Emma Watson countdown clock” and normalized homophobia to “woke has gone too far.” Feels like I lived through a quantum leap only to be hurled back decades
I feel like maybe it’s a function of everyone online being born in 2002 but I don’t think most people realize how openly and explicitly pedophilic american culture was until like… maybe 10 years ago

Remember, it's only Lesbianism if it's from the Lesbos region of Western Massachusetts.

Otherwise it's just sparkling Subaru ownership.

What is your favorite song over 10 minutes long?

First heard this song in college on our college radio station. I saw Sisters of Mercy in NYC the next year and it ruled.

yep
If you live in the US and you’re white, unless you’re very lucky, you’re dealing with the awareness that a good-size chunk of your family not only would go Nazi if given the chance, but were given the chance and took it without any hesitation, and are Nazis now, so that’s what they were all along.

No one is made safer by ICE snatching up our neighbors, our friends, or our colleagues.

The awfulness of this soothes me like a warm bath. And that somebody convinced themselves it was watchable is hilarious. This is what happens when nobody in the meeting is willing to say “Wait … this looks like hot salted ass, though.”

The Melania will continue until morale improves.
Melania hasn't sold a single ticket at all in Boston. This movie was an obvious bribe by Bezos and Amazon.

Frog and Toad looked into a mirror.

“We look brave,” said Frog.

“Yes, but are we?” asked Toad.

We have to see the movement for democracy and freedom against Trumpism/Putinism as a global one.

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

They're going to choose Philly and it's going to go very, very badly for them
I suspect right now Stephen Miller and the other nazis are meeting to discuss how a place not as “nice" or "peaceful” as Minnesota will provide better oxygen for their lies and goals of martial law.

"Secure" borders, whatever that means, have never been worth the cost. Fuck ICE. Open the border, issue amnesty and a path to citizenship for undocumented people.

Abolish ICE.

Borders are bullshit.
BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.

Not now exploding trees, we’re busy
I've lived in Minnesota my whole life and have experienced some major cold snaps but this is the first time I've heard about exploding trees.
