And if you're worried about violence this weekend, imagine how much worse it'll be if there's no immediate action to hold *these* assholes accountable.
If they get away with roughing up a senator at a press conference, then protesters will be killed. It's a straight line.

The state of California needs to arrest the DHS "security" forces for assault and every Democrat in the U.S. Senate needs to sign onto a campaign to impeach Kristi Noem.
Right fucking now.
Right fucking now.

I realize this criticism is so common as to be almost cliche at this point, but FOR FUCK'S MOTHERFUCKING SAKE, this is perhaps the most egregious example I've ever seen of the @nytimes.com catastrophically failing to describe fascism as fascism. What the FUCK is wrong with them?!?

Proud of the #Rockies. When they got their 9th win of the season on May 23, with seven games still to go in May, the doubters and naysayers didn’t think they could make it into June with single-digit wins. But I always believed. And by God, they did it.

@jensenmcrae.bsky.social's "Tuesday" is #4 for the calendar year to date, even though it's only been out for **SIX DAYS**, so that's impressive, lol.
Lily Fitts #2 and #5 with two major earworms.
Frances Whitney's gorgeous "Theo's Party" #1 as expected.

Folks, please fact-check thoroughly before spreading viral posts about tariff impacts. Claims of currently-empty ports and all that. There’s a lot of misinformation going around. Let’s have a bit more media literacy and skepticism than the MAGAs, please.

I don't have anything clever to say about this. Just understand: the collapse of American constitutional democracy, and the rise of authoritarian fascism, isn't a looming menace, it's present reality. America is a fascist country now. Our government is a fascist regime. What are we doing about that?

Frances Whitney – Old Hobbies Tour w/ Macy Todd
Larimer Lounge Presents Frances Whitney – Old Hobbies Tour with Macy Todd on Saturday, May 10th. Born and raised in San Francisco, California, Frances identifies as a songwriter before all else. Even during her time overseas playing professional volleyball, much of her downtime was spent with her guitar. As soon as she retired from sports and made her way back to the states, she also returned home to her identity as a musician. Swirled with nostalgic nods to Los Angeles’ 70s rock ...

Anyone debating or analyzing Kilmar Abrego Garcia's life or record is doing a grave disservice.

This entire decade-long(!!) Trump era feels like a verrrrrrrry slow-motion version of my Katrina Cassandra era, specifically the 4-day period from "holy shit it's gonna destroy NOLA, everyone get the fuck out" to "holy shit it's destroying NOLA, I really wish more people had gotten the fuck out"
