Reportedly, 1,500 ICE agents are coming to the Alameda Coast Guard Station tomorrow, Thursday 10/23, to do raids throughout the Bay Area. How do we get the frogs! No really, who’s organizing and how do we confirm where to be to protest?

I feel like prop 50 in California is not getting the attention it deserves. What do people think happens when we let a POTUS call a weak ass governor “to find seats” to send to a House that is 219 v 215? If 50 doesn’t pass, they will just do that before any election silencing us all.

The realities of life. Sometimes they’re so amazing, you’re silenced in awe or joyful with reckless abandon. Sometimes they’re so devastating, you’re silenced in despair or ugly crying without consolation like a mutherducking newborn.

Wasn’t one of Trump’s indictments due to asking the Georgia Secretary of State to “find 12,000 more votes”? And how is that different than asking Texas for a “very simple redrawing” of the state’s congressional map to “find 5 more seats”?

I don’t understand. The same people crying “do your own research” and citing Google as a source are using “AI generated” to discredit anything they don’t understand?

So you’re canceling vaccines but I have to watch Big Pharma commercials with people literally shooting up your drug, hear about side effects for genitals/anus/itching/bleeding/trouble breathing/excessive secretions and mens erections all day?

You know how we used to say “in bed” at the end of every fortune cookie read? We should say “like a toddler” after every trump headline read. It doesn’t make it funny, or sexy, but at least it provides the right reading voice.

I’m sensing a theme in all the new videos/reels/tiktok or whatever you’re calling that shit that pops up in your daily feeds. Is hiding the reality of current events in a fun video with useful information the new hide the veggies in the meatloaf to get your kids to eat it trick?

I know I’m the only one in the restaurant, but did you really have to put on the white girl playlist to make it worse? Taylor Swift Carly Rae Jepson Michael Buble Miley Cyrus Journey Adele

Don’t blame the victim in a domestic violence situation. As much as I want to say Trump voters deserve it, the reality is none of us do. He lied. He hurt people. And he’ll continue as long as he can find new victims, enablers and those that won’t hold him accountable because of fear.

Pro tip. Just like you don’t ask a woman if they’re pregnant, you don’t ask if we just got done with a workout. Some of are just sweaty cause it’s hot 🥵

Have we ID’d any of the ICE agents in LA? I mean, not doxxing, but how many are law breakers, enforcing the law thanks to a deranged mans pardon?

I don’t always pound a beer at the bar, but when I do, it’s because an asshole felt compelled to congratulate me for actually picking a good beer for the man I must be ordering for. 🍻

In case you were wondering… Major League Baseball (MLB) broadly supports Pride Month. In 2025, 29 out of 30 MLB teams are hosting "Pride Night" events at their ballparks during June to cele

The difference between Gates and the rest of the billionaires is that he, at a pivotal moment, was actually held accountable. Whether you agree with his “crime” or not, he was forced to reckon with the law and his impact. Look at him today vs Musk/Bezos/Brin/Zuck etc.

A U.S.-funded charter plane carrying dozens of white South Africans who claim to have been victims of discrimination in their home country left Johannesburg on Sunday, heading for the United States, where the Trump administration is welcoming them as refugees.

Kamala, you would have made a great President and it’s not your fault you lost. But here’s the thing, it’s okay. We need don’t need you in the White House, we need you in SCOTUS. Let’s go lady!

I wonder why Trump isn’t blaming Taylor Swift for the economy, I mean, she could have continued the Eras Tour indefinitely and saved us all. Stopping in December was just lazy.

you know how when you tell someone “hey, it’s supposed to rain this weekend” and they immediately say “really?” as they pull out their phone and check *their weather app for confirmation? Well, why doesn’t that happen when someone says “hey, jan 6 was a tourist event” or “trump won by a landslide”…

Can we finally agree that the whole “i can’t wait to go back to normal” after a disaster is part of the disaster? We should take every opportunity to fix what’s broken and move forward. Going back to what was is a copout, always move forward in hopes of what can be.

For people who talk a lot about shithole countries and want to persecute people just for looking like their from one of those shithole countries, they sure are doing a lot to fasttrack America from a first world nation into a shithole country.

Weird how the guy who used the system to get rich is now struggling to manage any part of the actual system. It’s almost like abuse of a system doesn’t qualify you to re-engineer the system.

Personally, when I hear “governments waste”, I always pictured agencies paying $17 for a special screw from an “approved government contractor” that they had to buy from. Why didn’t we start there?

Dropkick Murphys just had an epic moment at their show: They made a friendly wager with a fan in a MAGA shirt—“Let’s see where it’s made.” Then they checked his MAGA shirt tag… Made in Nicaragua. They swapped it with a Made in America Dropkick Murphys tee. Legendary.

If public discourse promotes that criminals don’t get caught, or charged, or penalized in any way, why wouldn’t more people commit crime?
