this is also my ongoing frustration. you can not run for office on "democracy is under threat" and then lose and go "oh well, nice game everyone"
they put us in a constant state of hypervigilance & terror begging for our last $5 to save the country and then they do the joint softball game.

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.
I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.
1/ Here's what I can share:
“This changes nothing,” he snarled through kiss-bitten lips.
“It doesn’t,” she agreed. “It’s always been you.”

when I say "I started writing a new book" I really mean I've thought up a singular interesting scene playing out to a specific song that I am currently fleshing out in great detail in hopes this thing called "a plot" emerges from the veiled fog of my vague daydreams
Warren: "It is still the case that the Trump admin cannot explain the reasons we entered this war, the goals we're trying to accomplish. The only part that seems clear is that while there is no money for 15m Americans who lost their healthcare, there's a billion a day to spent on bombing Iran."

Been so sick since surgery that ive just been marathoning tv shows for a week. Im now on rizzoli & isles. No idea if the show holds up well enough
The DOJ released evidence, which the FBI deemed credible, that the President of the United States sexually and physically assaulted a 13 year old girl AND she was afraid to talk about it because Trump would kill her—and it’s somehow not the biggest scandal in American history?
This is a very good way to celebrate International Women's Day. Which book(s) would you recommend? 🗃️

I remember learning about the Hays Code in film school and how it made it so that any amoral protagonist had to meet karmic justice by the end of the film and going “wow, that’s really silly” and then once a week I log online and see people argue that we need stuff like that now or it’s problematic
The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it.
15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.
Emmanuel Damas' death was entirely preventable.
He died from sepsis. That started as a tooth infection while under ICE detainment.
I’m urging DHS for a full investigation into his passing, and demanding proper medical care for all who remain behind the walls of these inhumane detention centers.
Christ, we've seen this film before
I am on serious pain meds after a surgery so i shouldnt be tweeting lol signing off before i yell about media corporations long ties to the us government, specifically the military, dangers and how this is fucking us over in unprecedented ways
I.... really have no words for this level of fuckery at the moment. I would hope disney, marvel and Star Wars sue but i doubt it
the rebels episode where kanan and hera were fighting about her training with the blade despite the fact she wasnt force sensitive would have been a great segway to that! It just... isnt narratively developed lol
Yeah exactly so them flipping sabine too to be one? Omg its a struggle lol
I still stand on the notion that ahsoka was not written to be a jedi (just a force user) in extended canon but they flipped that to appease OT fans who hated the ST and i just... cant move past it😭. Feels like a weird rewrite, same with sabine (who pointedly wasnt force sensitive in rebels lol)
oh finally
Goodbye and good riddance.
But don’t take the bait. Firing Noem alone won’t halt Trump’s campaign of terror.
The atrocities happening by ICE behind the walls of detention facilities and in broad daylight have proven that ICE cannot be reformed.
Abolish ICE NOW.
ICE wants to turn warehouses into detention centers. The suburbs are fighting back.
[update] Investigating: #AO3 will remain down for at least several hours until we can consult our database vendor's support team and resolve the underlying issue. We're very sorry for the inconvenience.
Two things can both be true...

2. It's still illegal to not repost this video if you see it
A lesson in fandom:
