we could be gigantic feral boars who gallop through the forest together & impale people with our tusks in our next lives if we play our cards just right

Today I encountered an especially pathetic Italian greyhound. His owner told me that a gust of wind once blew him into a lake.

[trying to insult a person's dog-like devotion to someone but not wanting to make them sound too cool about it] keep your fucking dog in a purse

i KNOW i keep talking about this but watching in real time as the dems are reclaiming "freedom" and "patriotism" (nationalistic fervor) from the right and explicitly running as the law and order tough on crime party and throwing incarcerated folks that they're meant to be helping under the bus because the "prosecutor vs felon" sloganeering works so well with audiences and also the harsher border control party (because trump was a self-interested hypocrite with no follow through but he was right that we need to be tougher on borders) and more hawkish on foreign policy / "strongest military in the world" party (because trump was too "weak" and "feckless" on that front), and then seeing millions of people slurp that shit up because the slogans are catchy and the stump speeches are better written and the production value on the videos is high and the vibe is brat… shit feels fucking bad man.

sorry but like. this is the same picture just veiled in different levels of respectability and politeness. their wicked gleeful xenophobia, our glorious joyful nationalism; their barbarous border wall and mass deportation, our blessed tougher more technologically advanced border control and mass removal/repatriation with asylum ban.
