Texas administration and legislature is panicking. They know their policies are dangerous, and they’re trying to deflect.
All the support and listening won’t do a damned thing if you need an abortion to live in a state whose doctors are afraid of going to jail for saving their patients.

I don’t have sympathy for people who are willfully ignorant enough to continuously align and vote against their own self-interest. But I hope this is eye-opening for those who’ve been questioning that alignment.
If nothing else, my wish is at least some of these cultists will wake the fuck up.

In France it’s blasphemous.

I’m reminded of Bill Hicks. “Jesus is back! … AND HE’S PISSED OFF!!”

I was 12 on 9/11. It was one of the most memorable and shaping events that I’ve witnessed in my life. It was my generation’s Pearl Harbor.
The two and half decades that followed showed how the rubble of this attack became the foundation of lies to continue attacking the Middle East.
Never forget.

On the 25th anniversary of 9/11, it is refreshing to see the latest technology being used to help us through a difficult time, rather than mining our personal data to annoy us, steal our identities, rip us off, and interfere with our elections.

Right wing propaganda and the slow corporatization of education in this country has been so effective, Repugnican civilians are still blaming immigrants, still surprised Trump is fucking them over, and still more concerned with being labeled a Democrat than the actual events harming them right now.

Why do you appreciate unions?
I’ll start:
Weekends off
Paid vacations
Work breaks
Sick leave
Paid holidays
No child labor
Safer working conditions
Health care and retirement benefits

Voters with Trump-gret need to stop saying they were fooled. You were not. He said he would implement tariffs. He said he would roll back regulation. He said he did not care about you, just your vote.

American Farmers: Trump lied, HELP!!!
Consumers: Didn’t you vote for him?
AF: I voted for $12 billion and deregulation!
C: He’s lied a lot, though. Tarrifs, foreign wars, groceries, healthcare. This seems like a natural consequence.
AF: Now I will NEVER vote against the GOP because you’re so mean! 😤

Another headline from Captain Obvious of the No Shit, Sherlock Gazette.
One of the comments under this news post said “This is just being responsible.”
Go tell that to the pro-natalists and fetal-fetishists who are fear-mongering with stats of the falling birth rate.

As much as I don’t think we should continue littering outer space and the moon, I’d be much less concerned with The Muskrat playing Chairface Chippendale if he paid his fair share of taxes. Sure dude, you can pretend to be a scientist, right after you give up some of that dragon hoard.

Which industry felt more threatened by THC in Texas, so they had to buy Dan Patrick and Greg Abbott? The flailing alcohol industry or the very expensive private prison (i.e. forced prisoner labor) industry? Either way, Republicans are damn near giving this race to Talarico. Stupid move.
