I took this picture of my cat Pandora today, and I had to meme it. That look sums up my feelings about the state of things.

Since there have been too many documented instances of ICE murdering people in the street or illegally grabbing or beating US citizens the Trump regime has an innovative solution; you can no longer film ICE and fuck your first amendment, buddy.

Just now, 11 state and city lawmakers were arrested by DHS police on the 10th floor of 26 Federal Plaza after a hour of demanding access to the ICE lock up on the same floor. @thecity.nyc

This is the playbook, folks.
If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.
Do not be quiet in this moment.

Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert are our canaries in the coal mine. MAGA wants free speech only for those who say the right things.
Don't give up. Speaking out is now more important than ever. The #FirstAmendment should count for all Americans.

Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension is a chilling precedent that could have deep consequences if it isn’t swiftly undone, @davidlsims.bsky.social argues:

The #StarTrek Strange New Worlds season finale was the most #DoctorWho ish episode of Trek ever, and it was beautiful. I don't mind a timey-wimey episode on occasion, especially if it's done well.

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life.
The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

RIP Charlie Kirk. May all who mourn find solace in knowing that he believed gun deaths were “worth it,” “prudent,” and “rational.”

What is happening in DC is an abuse of federal authority based on a manufactured crisis. Violent crime for 2024 in DC is down 35% from 2023, the lowest it’s been in 30+ years.

I saw a #Waymo self-driving car for the first time this past weekend. It was stuck at the bottom of an uphill road. Apparently, the grade was too steep for it to proceed.
Sounds about right.
