A narrative is taking hold that LAPD shot her because she was out after curfew. But the curfew was only imposed just last night (Tues, 6/10), and check the timestamp on this. They're not shooting unarmed people for being out after curfew. They're shooting people because they want to shoot people.

To the National Guard: You are not alone. If you are given an order that violates the Constitution or asks you to act unlawfully against citizens, call 877-447-4487. There is support there! The GI Rights Hotline. Don't do something you can't live with.

I don't even particularly enjoy John Waters movies but I now suddenly think a John Waters Batman movie is a thing that should exist. "Batman: Seduction of the Innocent"!
I love how in every live action Batman thing, Alfred never looks like he does in the comics, because a comic-accurate Alfred would look like a John Waters pervert.

The White House Correspondents’ Association said it fired host Amber Ruffin so it can instead focus the dinner on celebrating the First Amendment.

Which apparently can be done best by preventing a gay black woman from speaking.

All I'm saying is that if they didn't want this commercial audition for the role of a wacky neighbor in the opening credits of a cheesy 80s sitcom to turn out like this, then they shouldn't have included a still frame from "Too Many Cooks" in the audition sides.

Interesting old Richard Pryor interview (was there any other kind?) where he talks about racism being involved in NBC cancelling his show. 50 years ago. It's in the interest of capitalism to promote racism because if you keep people separated, they don't talk to each other.

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes.

You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment.

My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc.

This is a great follow… great resources for staying informed in a way that combats despondency. Remember, Nolite Te Bastardes Carborundorum.
If y'all haven't caught on I'm going to annoy the shit out of y'all with examples on how democracy is being fought for and saved on the local level.

I want to unshackle y'all from the thinking that only the national horse race matters.
The GOP in Minnesota tried to steal a state house seat, with the house split evenly.

Lawsuits were filed, and it got kicked up to the state Supreme Court, who sided against the GOP.

🏳️‍🌈 Re-sharing since folks seemed to find this helpful, & this week was 💩

This is alarmist, but I strongly suspect gay marriage will be overturned this year. There are cases in the pipeline, and we all know the cruelty is the point, so I see them taking away marriage equality on its tenth anniversary
Please share this, because this could help some folks with worry.

For LGBT married couples, it's time to take steps to protect your marriage in case same-sex marriage is officially dissolved in the coming years. My husband and I did this when Roe V Wade was overturned, so I hope this is helpful. 👇

fascism is stopped when enough people say one of two things:
1) "nah, I'm not doing that"
2) "nah, you're not doing that"

a lot of people want to imagine how they'll say the second thing, but you should *really* start practicing the first one

More to the point, art is the most visible part of most perspectives, whether ideological or identity-based. The duty of artists representing that which people want eliminated is simply to continue producing art.
Critical analysis of English literature may not be the most important antifascist praxis, but it *is* a kind of antifascist praxis. Literature is where we store and keep and guard everything they hate.
