Scouring social media, are they? Well, scour this: I believe that ICE are a bunch of lawless bastards whose actions are helping destroy the fabric of this country. The agency should be abolished and the perpetrators should be prosecuted. Clear enough?

in honor of Sam Neill, here is one of my favorite movies he ever made
True hot take: Policing & scolding people for being glad Lindsey Graham’s reign of terror has ended is infinitely more unethical and immoral than people celebrating ever could be, because knowing what we know about the sheer volume of harm and deaths that man caused, it would be weird if you didn’t
Swear to the gods if I ever run into whoever keeps fucking calling me from the “Tax Resolution Department”, I will remove their senses but keep them alive right after I remove every person connected to them like what happened to that traitorous gardener in Foundation.

So the problem is trans kids, not that college admissions is based on a genetic lottery of getting an athletic scholarship. Would have been a physician, but a lack of oxygen in my blood means I can’t run for shit and can’t get a free ride based on running track. Guess that’s a trans kid’s fault!
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last mo.Gluesenkamp Perez: "At town halls, what I saw was the people who were the most upset had spent the last 12 years driving their girls to sports practice & they view their best shot of their student going to college as an athletic scholarship.
