    "President Donald Trump's Republican midterm convention in Dallas featured a bizarre video that claimed he was chosen by God for a special purpose.

    "The video, which was also used in 2024, is a modified version of Paul Harvey's 1978 'So God Made a Farmer' speech, but with a twist: In this one, God makes Trump.

    "And on June 14th, 1946, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, 'I need a caretaker,'" the narrator says. "So God gave us Trump.' "

  6. CW: CW: Fascism, authoritarianism, censorship, political repression

    Hello there! 🌸

    I've finally gathered all my ranting about the fascist demand for “apolitical art” into one essay.

    You can find it here:
    ko-fi.com/post/The-Fascist-Lie

    Go on. Give it a read. 💜

    And then go make some art. Write. Sing. Paint. Dance. Speak. Be inconvenient. Be political. Be free.

    Because freedom of expression isn't something fascists get to switch off when they don't like what we're saying.

    Fight for the freedom to create.
    Fight against the fascist dream of silencing us all.

    And make plenty of noise. 🏳️‍🌈✊

    I just received this press release from the Tohono O'odham Nation by email and am reprinting it here in its entirety, as it is clear that the US federal government has crossed all lines and is violating the TO Nation's tribal sovereignty:

    =======================================
    Press Release
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    Wednesday, Aug. 26, 2026

    ARMED FEDERAL AGENTS AND CONTRACTORS ENTER
    TOHONO O’ODHAM NATION LAND, SET UP VEHICLE BLOCKADE
    Tribal Members Urged to Stay Vigilant, Avoid Escalation, and Prioritize Personal Safety

    SELLS, Ariz. – On Tuesday, Aug. 25, 2026, at 4:00 a.m., border wall contractors and approximately 20 masked, armed Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents from the Tucson Sector entered the Tohono O’odham Nation land and began engaging in pre-construction activities. The contractors, who are on the Nation illegally, were accompanied by agents as they worked on three different locations near the border with drill trucks to conduct soil sampling and other activities.

    This is in direct violation of the Tohono O’odham Code, Title 4, Chapter 2, “Civil Trespass; Removal and Exclusion of Nonmembers.” Tribal leadership previously warned unauthorized individuals attempting to access the Nation that they would be in violation of this trespassing law. Tohono O’odham Police Department (TOPD) officers were on the scene Tuesday morning and have been monitoring the situation.

    In addition to the CBP agents, multiple BIA officers and a CBP BORTAC SWAT Team have been deployed to the Nation to protect the contractors, and a tethered balloon is being used by federal
    authorities for enhanced monitoring. TOPD has been unable to issue citations due to a vehicle blockade set up by CBP. In addition, in coordination with U.S. authorities, Mexican police have been deployed to the southern side of the border to protect the areas while the border wall contractors are working.

    Interactions between TOPD and federal authorities have remained peaceful and professional.

    “These illegal actions by border wall contractors puts decades of successful partnership in jeopardy,” said Chairman Verlon M. Jose, Chairman of the Tohono O’odham Nation. “As the federal government knows, effective border security relies on modern technology, not outdated and expensive static border
    walls. This overreach by the Trump Administration must stop, and our sovereignty, along with tribal sovereignty across the country, must be respected.”

    Drone footage of Tuesday’s illegal activities is available at tonation-nsn.gov.

    I've been a member of the #NationalLawyersGuild since law school, when I first read the infamous "Disorientation Handbook," which taught me that I could and should subvert my law school education, but also that there were many other lawyers and legal workers who were committed to a very different way of doing law.

    The #NLG is at a critical time in its history, with the #Trump administration targeting the organization for its solidarity work and its commitment to legal organizing against #fascism

    Please consider giving to this campaign to ensure that the NLG has the resources it needs to continue the struggle.

  22. CW: CW: dehumanisation, death threats, fascism, camps, hate speech

    There is a German phrase I keep coming back to: soziale Verrohung.

    Social brutality. The coarsening of society. The point where cruelty stops being shocking and starts becoming conversational.

    And honestly? We are watching it happen in real time.

    People aren't merely saying, “I disagree with you” anymore.
    They are saying:
    You are degenerate.
    You are vermin.
    You are unworthy of living.
    You should be killed.
    You should be sent to the camps.

    And increasingly, they aren't even bothering to hide behind anonymous accounts.

    Full names. Real photographs. Proudly attached to it.

    That should frighten us.

    Because dehumanisation is not just “strong language”. It is how cruelty becomes socially acceptable. First someone is annoying. Then disgusting. Then dangerous. Then somehow no longer quite human.

    History has a rather ugly filing cabinet full of examples.

    So no, I am not going to politely debate whether my friends, my community, or anyone else is sufficiently “worthy” of dignity.

    Human rights are not a popularity contest.

    And if your politics requires treating other human beings as disposable, perhaps the problem isn't that the rest of us need to become more tolerant.

    Perhaps your politics is simply fucking monstrous.

    You should be killed.
    You should be sent to the camps.

    And increasingly, they aren't even bothering to hide behind anonymous accounts.

    Full names. Real photographs. Proudly attached to it.

    That should frighten us.

    Because dehumanisation is not just “strong language”. It is how cruelty becomes socially acceptable. First someone is annoying. Then disgusting. Then dangerous. Then somehow no longer quite human.

    History has a rather ugly filing cabinet full of examples.

    So no, I am not going to politely debate whether my friends, my community, or anyone else is sufficiently “worthy” of dignity.

    Human rights are not a popularity contest.

    And if your politics requires treating other human beings as disposable, perhaps the problem isn't that the rest of us need to become more tolerant.

    Perhaps your politics is simply fucking monstrous.

  25. CW: CW: dehumanisation, death threats, fascism, camps, hate speech

    There is a German phrase I keep coming back to: soziale Verrohung.

    Social brutality. The coarsening of society. The point where cruelty stops being shocking and starts becoming conversational.

    And honestly? We are watching it happen in real time.

    People aren't merely saying, “I disagree with you” anymore.
    They are saying:
    You are degenerate.
    You are vermin.
    You are unworthy of living.
    You should be killed.
    You should be sent to the camps.

    And increasingly, they aren't even bothering to hide behind anonymous accounts.

    Full names. Real photographs. Proudly attached to it.
