Trump’s unidentified secret police force was not prepared to meet this guy.



He said in an interview that he shouldn’t have been surprised that they would have no respect for vets when they are gassing moms



Honorary Antifa Supersolider



In case you, a U.S. voter, were feeling iffy about voting for Kamala Harris, here’s a reminder of the shit that went down under Trump…


Yeah, remember when his administration SENT UNMARKED PARAMILITARY FORCES into cities to quell BLM protests? Not “riot police” - tactical, militarized units with identifying tags and numbers deliberately removed or obscured.


Oh shit…. you probably forgot about that, didn’t you? There was so much going on in 2020, it’s natural to block out stuff, but if you have the power and the privilege of voting in this year’s elections don’t you DARE allow this man back in office, especially when he is CURRENTLY saying stuff like this:


NYT Headline:Trump Steps Up Threats to Imprison Those He Sees as Foessubhead:The former president is vowing to prosecute those he sees as working to deny him a victory, while laying the groundwork to claim large-scale voter fraud if he loses.

[x]


NYT Headline:Trump Says He Wouldn’t Be a Dictator, ‘Except for Day 1’subhead:Pressed by Sean Hannity to promise not to abuse power, Donald Trump agreed he wouldn’t, “other than Day 1,” adding: “We’re closing the border. And we’re drilling, drilling, drilling. After that, I’m not a dictator.”

[x]


The Atlantic headline:Trump Floats the Idea of Executing Joint Chiefs Chairman Milleysubhead:The former president is inciting violence against the nation’s top general. America’s response is distracted and numb.

[x]


NYT Headline: Trump Says ‘One Really Violent Day’ Would End Property Crimesubhead:The remarks were the latest example of his praise for executive power and force in imposing order, this time over crimes the F.B.I. said last week were falling.

[x]


USA Today headline:Trump calls for police to shoot shoplifters as they leave the store

[x]


NYT Headline:After Calling Foes ‘Vermin,’ Trump Campaign Warns Its Critics Will Be ‘Crushed’subhead:The former president’s Veterans Day speech used language similar to the dehumanizing rhetoric wielded by dictators like Hitler and Mussolini.

[x]



ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION???

In case you were a kid in 2020 and protected from seeing what happened


You need to know what’s at stake here. This stuff? was a TEST RUN. Look up everything that happened those years. Everything you can find from 2016 and Standing Rock to 2020 and Black Lives Matter and the Riots and then look up Jan 6 and the attempted coup on our government.


THEN VOTE

Was talking with one of my very lesbian friends about body dysmorphia and how you can look at a fucking gorgeous woman who has a lot of the same qualities as yourself and not realize that the complement also applies to yourself. I asked her if she’d been watching Dancing With The Stars this season and she said no.


So i showed her a picture of Ilona Maher from this week’s episode.




Her response:


“Thigh. Thigh. Thigh. Thigh. Thigh.”


So anyway, the takeaway here is that one person’s ‘too masculine’ is another person’s 'thigh.’



These tags!!!


#please know that Ilona went to the designer and asked to be as naked as possible because she wanted to feel her best #she said all the other girls get to be in pretty revealing costumes and she wanted the same without worrying about her body type #she wanted to celebrate it the same way they celebrated the other girls because she loves her body and has fought her own dysmorphia #AND!! it was to celebrate with her teammates and the strength of athletic womanhood that often gets overlooked #if you struggle with dysmorphia she was thinking of you 💕




Ilona Maher Says She Wanted to Be 'as Naked as Is Allowed on National Television’ in New “DWTS” Costume


AND WE ALL SAID THANK YOU

It’s cute guys



nothing but respect for MY lesbian big cat couple



Butch/Butch couple



This is actually hella interesting, bc in simple terms, tigers are extroverts and lions are introverts. There’s more to it, but that’s the gist.


Whenever zoo’s tried to put lions and tigers in the same enclosures, the tiger would eventually try to groom the lioness and play constantly. The lioness would lose patience and snaps at them


So basically what I’m saying is that you have a regal and refined gf who stands at the edge of a balcony during parties, sipping champagne


Then you have the other girl who drank all of the little flutes on the servers platter, and is now drunkenly pointing at her gf and telling everyone that that’s her gf and doesn’t she look beautiful I love her so much



image

So I had to draw them in human form???



You drew them in the corresponding ethnicities for their Geographic locations!!! Bless you, you have no idea how sick and tired I am of white human lion king characters.



This post is deemed culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant as certified by the National Shitpost Registry.



This is some of that top-shelf, straight-up, good shit. Bless these big cat lesbians.



I’m so sorry, that lion is the tiger’s daughter. No lesbians, but it’s a super interesting case.


Tiger Momma adopted the Lion Baby, and while tigers leave their mothers when they get old enough, lionesses always stay in the pride and help mom raise her new babies. So the lioness stuck around to help mom so she could get a good grade in Daughter, and Mom basically shrugged and was like ‘weird, but okay’.


The super cool thing is, the tiger with the lion daughter was so much more successful in keeping her children alive pretty soon like half the tigers in the area were all her babies. They left her territory, but most set up shop in adjacent areas. This was because her overachiever lion daughter also wanted a good grade in Lion Pride, and stayed friendly with the siblings she helped raise to the point where she would attack intruding tigers who tried to go after her siblings, even after those siblings were grown.


And I’m talking ATTACK. Female lions will fight like hell to protect their babies and sisters, even one-on-one against an adult male lion 50 pounds heavier than them, if they feel like they have to. So a tiger sister would see another tiger and go ‘no I don’t want to fuck you’, and her lion sister would hear her yelling and be like


It was basically an accidental experiment that resulted in a loose, friendly kingdom of related tigers centered around their mom and a lion, and helped show how successful the ‘build a pack’ strategy was, evolution-wise. Mama Tiger accidentally changed the genetics of an entire population of tigers because she had a daughter there to help keep her babies alive.


So next time some dude-bro crypto asshole starts talking about how survival of the fittest is really survival of the selfish, maybe mention how discovering the power of cooperation made a regular tiger into the queen of a tiger kingdom



#that lion is the tiger’s daughter #momma loves her weird tiger daughter #sorry no lesbians but still cool #I like to think about a random asshole tiger coming in trying to start some shit with a younger smaller tiger and suddenly LION #who the fuck invited the lion and why is she kicking my ass

All we do is scream.

All we do is scream.

Description: A three panel comic. The first panel shows me, tired and just woken up, grimacing and holding a container of cat treats. Beside me is my black cat, and he is screaming for treats. The second panel is the same, except that my orange cat has joined in the screaming on my other side. By the third panel, the only thing that has changed is that now I am screaming too. Because why should they get all the fun.
