Happy Mother’s Day to me! Just in time for all the red, white, and blue holidays. Timely and timeless art courtesy of @effinbirds.com
Light blue t-shirt with a patriotic-appearing logo including an eagle. The eagle is saying, “Oh my god what the fuck.” This bird speaks for so many of us in the U.S. right now.

📣 Calling PA folks: it’s Election Day. Who gets your vote? 🗳️
Picture of Gritty, the Philadelphia Flyers mascot, standing proudly in front of the US flag. He would never sell out his constituents. Gritty would be the menace in the Senate that we all need. Picture of Senator Fetterman doing prayer/thank-you hands in front of the U.S. flag. He’ll reliably serve the people…on a platter to the fascist regime in power.

More examples of major newspapers normalizing what should never be normalized. These @nytimes.com headlines make this guy sound legitimate. Just stop
