ICE agents are claiming Lorenzo Salgado Araujo attacked them. That’s not what the latest video footage shows.
Mexico says it will go directly to U.S. prosecutors as ICE continues to kill its citizens.
I’m going 2 be honest here, the radqueer community is a walking anti-LGBTQ+ propaganda machine, providing right-wing extremists with all the ammunition they need to demonize us. It is actively undoing decades of queer activism by hiding harmful behavior behind the shield of 'queer liberation.' The entire ideology relies on isolating vulnerable, mentally ill kids online to brainwash them into accepting dangerous behavior as normal. They don’t care about 'safe spaces', they just want an echo chamber where nobody can call out their severe maladaptation and encouragement of self-harm. No amount of academic jargon or invented flags will ever make this community acceptable to civilized society.
the radqueer community make itself as the ultimate frontier of quote unquote 'individual freedom’, its actual impact and what they’re doing is highly destructive!!! e.x harming and mocking marginalized groups, endangering abuse survivors and exploiting vulnerable youth online
additionally, “the future is radqueer" is nothing more than a defensive slogan used inside an online echo chamber. In the reality, an ideology that compromises the safety of abuse victims and sabotages human rights progress has no future, don’t deny it xoxo
"It doesn't help your credibility to exaggerate, most employers wouldn't literally work you to death" like, I used to work in distribution. If booking a truck driver for back to back shifts until they fall asleep at the wheel, crash, and die counts as being worked to death, I have personally met employers who've worked employees to death and gotten away with a slap on the wrist. It may not be universal, but it's a hell of a lot more common than a lot of us would prefer to think.
Death by spreadsheet is an acceptable degree of separation for most in middle management. They can sleep at night without guilt for what they've done, because the system charitably setup twelve degrees of separation between their choices and the real-world harm. But do not be fooled, their choices set that harm into motion. Without their reckless disregard for human life, the harm would not be done.
I used to work at a TV station in Ohio. On weekends, we only had an 11pm news broadcast. Not much happened on weekends, ya know? I worked Monday-Friday 9-5, but someone on the weekend shift quit, so I also had to come in at 9pm on Sat/Sun to work the 11pm news. It was brutal. I worked seven days a week, even if two of them were ~3hrs.
This was a particularly bad winter. One Saturday, we had a level 2 snow emergency: That means you should only travel if you absolutely must. Like, it's not uncommon for cops to pull you over in level 2 emergencies to ask where you're going and why. It is genuinely dangerous to drive in that much snow.
I told my boss as much, how I almost crashed on the way home at 12:30am after a news broadcast. I told him I would need to call off if there were a snow emergency again during a night snow.
He told me, point blank, "If you ever call me about the goddamn snow, I will take it as a call of resignation."
And that was that! The very next Saturday, snow fell again. It was a level 2, but would become level 3 by sunup. Level 3 means driving is literally illegal except for ambulances and snow plows. I stared out the window, watching the snow, and I had to make a choice.
"Will I die for this? Will I kill myself to keep this job?" I made $11/hr.
Yes, managers work you to death. That's their job.
Every single labor protection is written in the blood of those who were literally worked to death, and business owners and profiteers would claw those protections back with glee if they could. They will squeeze every red cent from your body if they are allowed, and write off your death for an insurance payout that they'll try to pocket for themselves while hiring your replacement for half the pay they gave to you.
throughout the late 2000s and early 2010s, our generation was inundated with aave. it eclipsed lolcat as the "funny way to talk." ain't nobody got time fo dat turns into dat boi o shit waddup. this is blatantly not an "aracial" or "gen z" way to talk. it IS black english. not to mention the amount of black reaction images!!
WHY, specifically, is it black peoples' facial expressions that are seen as just so comical or exaggerated? analyze the history of this nation's comedy and tell me why you might be predisposed to thinking of black peoples' faces as just, "more emotive" or exaggeratedly funny than a white or nonblack person's
and throughout those years, 00s-10s, many black bloggers -- victims of the mass staff-led purge (under the cover of them being 'russian' while reichblr still exists) -- they DID tell us it was a problem, DID try to educate people who freak out at the insinuation of 'being racist,' DID argue, DID point out the duplicity and the appropriation and the gross equivalence of african american slang with unintelligence, goofiness, etc. and they were ignored, abused, cancelled, chased off, until being eventually mass deleted by our racist transmisogynistic staff.
we didn't do enough, and the generation after us gen z "kids" didn't stop the trend. using the '-ahh' suffix. rizz. no cap. ate. delulu. it's giving. it's serving. crash out. lock in. aura. tea. main character. bruh. slay. real. keep it 100.
all of the following images are or were popular reaction images! what do they all have in common?
it feels like the effort to categorize slang as AAVE and not 'gen z' or 'gen alpha' slang has really petered out. it feels like we stopped talking about digital blackface in an era where the administration is posting ai-generated videos of black women who speak and act like exaggerated stereotypes and it frustrates me because we all have a responsibility to understand our generation's role in normalizing this type of racist shit for kids today. this needs to be addressed!
Another point that reminds me of my privilege in this world is when I think about the fact that we sell the cure for tuberculosis to people to give to their dogs for a UTI. Millions of people literally die every year because they can't access this medication and I'm giving it to people to shove down their dogs' throats to make them stop peeing in the house. It's one of the more expensive antibiotics and people always whine about the price but then it's not their daughter they have to watch slowly suffocate as bacteria turns her lungs into swiss cheese. It's not their father that coughs and coughs and coughs until he's spitting up blood.
The deadliest infectious disease in human history is cured by the same packet of chewable tabs individually packed in foil. It comes in beef flavor so your dog won't resist taking its meds as much. It's like a hundred bucks for 30 tablets on pretty much any pet pharmacy.
It makes me think about medicine scarcity and how it's all fake in order to get enough capital that you can have individuals with higher net worth than entire countries. And in the mean time, hundreds of millions of people are dead because they don't drive the bottom line.
Let's say I really wanted to reduce the number of children who die in car accidents. Car accidents are really bad, right? Nobody disagrees about that. And it would be much better for both the environment and the kids' health if they spent more time walking, or taking the bus. Perfectly reasonable. More cars off the road, safer roads, fewer kids getting hurt, healthier kids. A win-win!
Therefore, let's ban children from traveling by car and require all cars to have a scanner on the door that scans the government ID of everyone who gets in the car to make sure no kids are in there. After all, kids get hurt in car accidents all the time! We need to ban this right away!
you should try crossdressing more. both because it's fun and because seeing the different ways clothes are manufactured by gender will give you 50 new reasons to be pissed off. become radicalized against misogyny by flannel quality
Can we stop saying "detained"? The word you're looking for is "kidnapped".
They believed that children were being sex trafficked at a pizzeria. But if you suggest that children are being sex trafficked by ICE, they find it far-fetched.
And that's the problem with conspiracy theorists. They panic about something with zero evidence then ignore actual evidence of something similar happening elsewhere.
But it's so obvious that ICE are sex trafficking children. They're clearly evil enough to do that, since they've shown how massively evil they are when everyone's watching, so you know that what they're doing in secret is much worse. And there have been young girls there who ended up pregnant. How do you think that happened?
I am part of a group called Prairie Protection Colorado and they shared this case study from Grasslands Colorado (Aug 2025) that is absolutely gut-wrenchingly horrifying. Some key points:
The black tailed prairie dog in CO has lost up to 99% of their original territory and population.
Sports-killers (bc this isn't hunting for subsistence) come in groups, loaded up with high powered guns, using the cheapest ammo which usually means lead bullets--which poisons any wildlife that tries to eat the carcasses.
These groups kill HUNDREDS of prairie dogs, if not over a 1,000 each 'hunt'.
They are allowed to kill an unlimited number of prairie dogs 9 months out of the year.
They call themselves the 'red-mist' society because they bring the biggest guns they can to basically obliterate these animals into 'red mist'.
They consider themselves to be doing 'god's-work' in taking out this keystone species bc they believe them to be nuisances and carriers of plague.
They go onto public lands with the consent of certain parks and wildlife employees.
The black-tailed prairie dog does meet the qualifications for being considered an endangered species but CO has done nothing to protect them.
They are supposed to do surveys of their population but the way they've been doing them is through aerial surveys which is very inaccurate.
If we don't want to lose a keystone species, like we almost lost the bison and the bald eagles then we have to act NOW.
If you are a CO resident, I urge you to contact your representatives. If you are not a CO resident but still have prairie dogs in your state, I urge you to look into the wildlife regulations surrounding them. Tell everyone you know cares about animals about this because it is unacceptable.
it sucks that the overwhelming majority of medical messaging around salt/sodium is "evil poisonous substance that you're definitely already eating way too much of," because like. you do still need it. (trust me, as a POTS-haver, I've had to completely rewire my own brain about salt.) and you need more salt when the entire northern hemisphere is hot enough to fry an egg on. ever tried sucking down the recommended 64oz of hydration per day entirely as water, only to find you're peeing constantly without any of the purported benefits of being "hydrated"? assuming you don't have another medical condition that causes frequent urination, your body probably needed more salt/electrolytes to be able to hold onto that water and make use of it. if there was ever a time to keep a sports drink/pedialyte/etc within constant reach, it's when the heat index is 110°F/43°C.
please do not ever forget that the “americas” are stolen land. that we survive despite genocide. that we still exist despite continuing colonialism. solidarity with indigenous people around the world.
youth liberation isn't when you sexually abuse children btw. youth liberation isn't an excuse for you to say you want to abuse children and make it sound morally righteous btw
