Folks, it’s bad here in DC. If you can lend us your congresspersons and senators that would be great. Tell them to stop attacking our right to home rule.
Please: DO NOT NORMALIZE OR EXPLAIN AWAY ARMED MILITARY ENGAGED IN LAW ENFORCEMENT IN AN AMERICAN CITY. If it doesn’t seem that off base or unusual to you, perhaps it’s because you are not the target of this.

“Homeland” is one of the most fascist words imaginable. Anyone talking with a straight face about “the homeland” is a guaranteed psycho. Obama should have torn down DHS 20 years ago based on the name alone.
The official DHS account is now tweeting about “your homeland’s heritage”

The fascist turn in this country doesn’t purely come from MAGA. It’s in the blue cities that purge the homeless. It’s in TERF politics. It’s in the belief in a “strong border” just with slightly more due process. It’s the disdain for red states full of disenfranchised people.
If your response to hearing that a bunch of people died in a flash flood is anything other than heartbreak and compassion I think you might be the baddies

Here we see the Washington Post once again being a pathetic boot-licking shadow of their former well-respected self.
Planes roared over D.C. on Saturday, tanks rolled along the National Mall, brass bands resounded and thousands of soldiers marched past cheering crowds, as the Army put on the largest show of military might in the capital in more than three decades. wapo.st/4dYFOck

As someone said prior, the only reason Greta got released is because people were very loud about her specifically. There are still 8 other flotilla members detained, apparently without fresh water in bedbug infested prison. They all deserve to be fought for, too.
Guys, please talk about Thiago Avila.
He's the Brazilian activist on Freedom Flotilla kidnapped by Israel. He's still detained and has been doing a hunger and water strike since yesterday early morning. There have been reports of unsanitary conditions too.
Please talk about him.

the thing about white liberal Americans is that they'll argue to accept bigots into their tent before accepting the bigots' targets.
the targets that have been on the same side as white liberals from the jump.

Happy Pride everyone.
What I’m thinking about this Pride is, despite their attempts to make us go back in the closet, there are more of us now than ever before.
They couldn’t make us go away if they tried their hardest.

My main conspiracy theory is that Pat Smear is a character that Fred Armisen has been playing for decades.

THESE NEW PURITANS - Crooked Wing
Shadowing Michael Nyman's operatic (but minimal) soundtracks, 'Crooked Wing' harks back to These New Puritans' career-best 'Field of Reeds', spiking its Talk Talk-inspired textures with Reichian vibra...

Last month, we sponsored a clinic on the Navajo Nation!
317 dogs received care, including 49 spays, 50 neuters, and treatment for 35 injuries or illnesses. On a reservation that spans 16 million acres
with only 3 veterinarians, this is incredibly meaningful.
Thank you for making this possible ❤️🩹

When Clive Barker was working on the MUMMY remake for Universal in the early '90s, he had a trans character in the script, and when the studio vetoed it, he basically said "I really can't stress how much I don't need to fucking make THE MUMMY" and left.

1. It is time that countries begin accepting trans refugees from the United States.
Refuge has always been a defining act in times of political persecution—this is one of those moments. History will remember who opens the door.

Countries Should Accept Transgender Refugees From The United States
The situation on the ground for transgender people is deteriorating in real time in the United States. Other countries should open up refugee programs to allow those moving from the US.

hi, cis folks!
if we *are* going to talk ACA, RFK's HHS proposed a rule to remove *all trans care* from ACA essential health benefit status.
~25mil people are insured by ACA & if 1% are trans, that's 250,000 people who'd lose access to care.
that's bad! take 2 minutes to stand with trans people.🧵
