Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

Sounds to me like Costco has confirmed it's not selling a pill it never sold, the religious right have falsely claimed it's their win, and the left has believed them and piled in on Costco which is in fact one of the left's biggest corporate allies. These things are deliberate. Divide and conquer.
Very bad news from Costco. One of the groups orchestrating this pressure campaign is Alliance Defending Freedom, a Christian Nationalist law firm that is hellbent on reshaping US society.
The ADF coalition "now turns its focus to CVS and Walgreens."

Costco Won’t Sell Abortion Pill as Religious Investors Declare Win
A coalition of faith-based activists had pressured the retailer to not offer the abortion pill mifepristone in its pharmacy locations. The group now turns its focus to CVS and Walgreens.

Replace all Columbus statues with *ACTUAL* Italian-American icon Danny DeVito.
There have got to be a number of great options for Italian Americans to celebrate. And who wouldn't love a holiday revolving around Italian food? Just swap the slave trader for almost anyone else and it would be a success.

We’re having a discussion in the GH server about the foul handles some of us have been given there and my brain cannot stop singing our accountant’s handle to the tune of the chorus of Red Flags: Cumslut Dracula, Cumslut Draculaaaa (I think that I’m gonna get murdered tonight)

The nice thing about Hogan dying that he’s dead, but also that in lieu of any obituary you can probably just grab a random existing Iron Sheik tweet and it would probably apply

Look, you can say a lot about Hogan's legacy: he was racist, he was terrible to his colleagues, he put himself above other people, he firmly believed in the supremacy of white people, he was a bad wrestler, his life was a net negative for society.
That's it. That's the post.

I don't get why it's such a big deal that trans people want to play in cis people sports. We let cis people participate in speedrunning tournaments.

Walking into a Warhammer event and having a group of trans women compliment me on my Train Good Car Bad shirt from @wtyppod.bsky.social felt like I ascended in the middle of a vast Venn diagram. I rode high on that shit for six hours easy

Here’s how I know I had a great time there too: I came home exhausted and sweaty after a no AC 10.5 hour drive, said out loud “I can’t even think about Warhammer for a week,” and immediately started list planning and shopping for next year. #goonhammer #warhammer40k #goonhammeropen
