Completely stupid comic I forgot to post

“You think every citizen should have access to free and accessible healthcare?”

Wrong!!!

I think that Asylum seekers and Migrant workers and The Undocumented and Everyone Else should get free healthcare too

I love immigration

[crippled-peeper]

This one made the fascists and the racists really really mad. I get hate mail daily for this post

Imagine getting mad because someone else’s child’s chemotherapy doesn’t cost them 100,000$ .

With three movies to compare between, I really appreciate how each Knives Out movie explores justice from a different thematic angle, not based on the murder that was committed but based on the cruelty that led to that murder.

In Knives Out, a compassionate, ethical young woman treats everyone around her with generosity, and the people around her repeatedly try to take advantage of her kindness to force her into losing the fortune that was gifted to her by a dear friend. There, justice means that she keeps the fortune and decides that actually, she doesn't have to be kind and giving to people who've proven themselves assholes.

In Glass Onion, a woman loses her sister to a gang of wealthy, successful people who've sacrificed their principles for the sake of ambition and ego. There, justice means that everyone involved will be made notorious: whatever their other accomplishments, they will forever be known for being complicit in the burning of the most famous painting in history.

In Wake Up Dead Man, the church takes advantage of a young girl's loyalty and faith to place her under a lifelong burden and fill her with guilt, shame, and hatred. Justice means helping her understand what was done to her and the women around her, and giving her compassion so she can find peace.

This is cool because it means the movies contradict each other! The compassionate justice of Wake Up Dead Man would be totally misplaced in Knives Out, and so would the toppling-monuments justice of Glass Onion. And because each movie has something different to say, they all stand on their own and feel fresh.

This is also why Benoit Blanc is the uniting figure but never the protagonist of these movies. He's an agent of legal justice in that he's the detective and it's his job to figure out whodunnit, but the protagonist -- Marta, Helen, and now Jud -- is always the character who delivers thematic justice.

I live in Chicagoland and have family friends who are brown and undocumented. It’s not good here.

[rosethornewrites]

I want to specify that the US government ICE agents rapelled from Blackhawk helicopters to take over an apartment building, breaking open apartment doors in the middle of the night to drag barely-clad residents from their homes and detain everyone in UHaul trucks with the children zip-tied to each other. Regardless of citizenship.

There was too much traffic today, and an ICE agent deployed a tear gas canister in traffic in response.

This is not normal.

[theplaguebeast]

From the very bottom of my heart: what the ACTUAL FUCK

[rosethornewrites]

It’s not even near me yet, but where I live there’s lots of brown folks so they’ll come.

This is surreal. We’re being attacked by the United States.

Most mainstream media is barely covering it.

I genuinely wish I were surprised by that.

Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated'

The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosi

Endlessly diabolical how you can't say words like rape and suicide uncensored without either being criticised by idiots or punished by conglomerates.

[bigfatbitchdotcom]

It's not r*pe, it's rape. It's not su*cide, it's suicide. Not unalive, dead. The backbone needs to be reintroduced en masse because softening the blow of these concepts with advertising language does absolutely nothing but allow people unaffected by them to feel not even a sting of what they can do, prompting inaction.

[bigfatbitchdotcom]

And it's been proven that on certain websites, you don't even face a repercussion for using the words as they are. People just started censoring themselves because they feared the potential lack of views and likes and followers which is so nasty itself.

[its-the-blob]

I attended an anti-suicide seminar in college. One of the big takeaways from it was that stigmatizing suicide increases the rate of suicide, because people who are feeling suicidal feel like they can't ask for help. Every time I see babytalk garbage like 'unalive', I think of that.

[ralfmaximus]

Use the real words. Words have power, and they matter.

hey peeps, i would be calling your doctors STAT to see if you're in the clear about where your drugs are manufactured

Trump’s latest 100 percent tariff on pharmaceuticals: What we know

The US largely imports pharmaceutical products from India and Europe.

[bliss-bliss-bliss-bliss]

Now, today is September 26th, and this is supposed to go into effect on October 1st, which is like nine months in the warped dog-years time of the Trump administration. And it's very possible he'll walk it back or conveniently forget about it, which happens pretty frequently.

Which means that calling your reps now may actually make a difference in whether this kills people.

Step 1: Search up the generic name for whatever meds you take, then call your pharmacist - not your primary - and ask where it comes from and whether any part of it is manufactured in the US. THEN call your primary and tell them to pre-order your next round, even if you're not due yet. (They might try to tell you they can't do that. They can.)

Step 2: Call your reps - by now you should be calling them so often they're one of the top numbers saved in your phone, but you can also find them very easily here - and tell them specifically that you are worried about the financial impact on American business this will have and ask them what they plan to do about it. Because sadly, concerns about money and saving their own skin will probably get their attention faster than any concerns about the harm it will do to vulnerable individuals.

NONE OF THIS IS INEVITABLE. I'm serious, call your reps. We've gotten other Orwellian nightmare shit walked back or shot down - because remember that we're not dealing with actual politics anymore, we're dealing with a spineless madman with late stage dementia who's favorite pastime is Just Saying Things To Say Things - and we can get this shot down too.

Okay I kinda assumed that they might try to turn Charlie Kirk into a martyr but seriously what the fuck

Here's a list of real things that have happened in the past 2 days:

He's being awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom

JD Vance personally escorted his body back to Arizona in Air Force Two

All American flags both in the US and abroad are to be flown at half-mast for the rest of the week

Republican senators are calling for a statue of him to be built in the Capitol (quote: "we have one of MLK don't we?")

News anchors are sobbing live on television

The governor of Utah has pledged to give the shooter the death penalty

Vigils are being held nationwide

Evangelicals have been equating him with Jesus

In the House of Representatives a request for a prayer devolved into screaming that the Democrats killed him

The New York Yankees held a moment of silence before the game and proceeded to lose 12-2

People across the country are losing their jobs en masse for criticising him online

MSNBC's political analyst was asked what created the environment for the shooting, said it could be his divisive rhetoric, and was fired on the spot

A UK student wrote "he got shot lol" in a private group chat and it made the news

The State Department announced that they will revoke the visas of foreign nationals who "praise, rationalise, or make light" of his death on social media

Also it was 9/11
