Ahahaha this is great. Far-right fundie Christian assholes move from Canada to Russia because they don’t like that Canada is ok with gay people, and learn the hard way why you don’t want to live under a dictatorship.
The city of Philadelphia will pay $2 million to a Black woman who was pulled from a car, beaten by officers and had her toddler used for social media fodder by the police union, officials said.
Nursing aide Rickia Young was headed home in the early morning hours of Oct. 27, 2020, when she unknowingly drove into a large protest over the police killing of Walter Wallace Jr.
She tried to make a three-point turn to get away from the tense scene when officers smashed out her windows with their batons, according to her attorneys.
Young was handcuffed and separated from her teenage nephew and 2-year-old son for several hours, and no one was ever charged or cited, according to the woman’s lawyer. The hearing-impaired toddler lost his hearing aids during the tussle.
The Fraternal Order of Police, the nation’s largest police labor union, posted a Facebook picture two days later showing Young’s toddler in the arms of a Philadelphia police officer just after the incident.

did you guys see yesterday that a whistleblower came forward and said that facebook knows how to remove the conspiracy theories and nazis but chooses not to because of the ad revenue those kinds of things bring in (and actively turned off the bare minimum safeguards they had when biden won the election), and now today, immediately following this whistleblower’s report: facebook, instagram, whatsapp, and all the sites owned by facebook are mysteriously down and have been down for over two hours now

this is what she said:
this is a direct response to all the people whose reaction to what’s happening in iran is a calling them islamophobic and blocking them, furthering the oppression they’re experiencing by the government’s hands. please read this, and repost it on Twitter or Instagram and stop the misinformation from spreading
(Just to be completely clear this is not me trying to take away any attention or downplaying the horrible and horrific things that was done to Isaiah in any way. Its just me wondering why they recognise Isaiah as a victim, but not Bucky)
Yes Isaiah went through racism as well, which is obviously horrible. But other than Isaiah and Bucky have a lot of parallels.
Had the supersoldier serum forced on them
Imprisoned for decades before managing to escape
Experimented on without their consent during their entire imprisonments
Tortured and abused during their entire imprisonments
Lost almost all of their loved ones because they died during the decades they were imprisoned
Lost everyone and everything they knew before their imprisonments
In tfatws they recognise what was done to Isaiah and that he was a victim as they should, but for Bucky they do the opposite.
For an example, lets look at how they talk about what dr Nagel admitted to. Dr Nagel dehumanised Isaiah and worked on samples from him from around 2014 to 2018 so around 30 years after Isaiah managed to escape, and they recognised the horribleness of that as they should. However he also admitted to working on the winter soldier program (aka the torture, abuse and anything else that went into keeping Bucky as the winter soldier) from around 1992 to 2014. So he was participating in Buckys torture and abuse for over 20 years! But that isnt even mentioned after dr Nagels said it and explained that was the only reason he was hired by the government and was able to experiment with the samples taken from Isaiah in the first place. Dr Nagel literally admitted to being one of Buckys abusers for over two decades, and no one even mentioned it?! No one called him out on what he had done to one of the main characters?! What the hell?!
I mean for all the talk about how Buckys trauma isnt more valid than others, the same isnt said for any of the other characters. All trauma is valid and should be treated like it! And just as Buckys trauma isnt more valid than Isaiahs, it goes the other way too. So why do they validate Isaiahs trauma and victimhood but do the opposite for Buckys? Is it because Isaiahs was racially motivated? I mean obviously that adds another layers, but Buckys trauma also has additional layers (what they did to his mind and being used as a weapon). However I would never invalidate either of them, because I recognise how wrong that is. Unfortunately the writers and creators of tfatws clearly didnt realise that.
... Man, IDW doesn’t pull their punches.
Thank you for answering, I appreciate it
Bit of a morbid question, but what moments in series do you find the most sad or heartbreaking? For me it was Starscream's beating after Megatron came, Megatron almost getting killed by Whirl; and his origin as a watchmaker, when Blurr wasn't answering Swerve's calls, and Megs final goodbye to the Lost Light crew for his trial.
Ravage's death BEST CATBOY DIDN'T DESERVE THIS
DIE IN A FIRE TREPAN
Starscream's sacrifice I'm asjdshgffffff goodbye goblin man ;;
Oh. Ohhhhhhhh
I felt so fucking bad for Mirage throughout IDW it was honestly a wonder he didn't turn Decepticon after what Ironhide (and technically, Sunstreaker) did to him pretty much on no fault of his own.
