If you're in Illinois and: - Palestinian, or protesting the genocide in Occupied Palestine; or - trans, or protesting for trans rights; and you are arrested or discriminated against, I can represent you pro bono. Please email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. I will take as many cases as I can.

Think about how no one under 30 knows what pensions are, it's a totally alien concept. The GOP goal is to make all government services as alien and unfamiliar. Imagine in a decade, trying to explain to a 20 year old what social security, libraries, grad school, the EPA, OSHA, mass vaccination, ADA,

In Massachusetts, at Logan airport, immigration thugs stripped an innocent man naked, tortured him, and pressured him to give up his green card.

My first (and for a while only) exposure to Darude: Sandstorm was at Six Flags Great America where during Fright Fest they would take the enclosed teacup ride, black it out, fill it with fog and lights and stuff, then blast the music as you spun yourself to death and it was beautiful.

Roman Senators reaching a compromise with their dictator, March 15th, 44 BCE

Fucking hell.

on the other hand this also tells us these people are afraid of posters and scare easy

It is absolutely torture for ICE to kidnap people, strip them naked, force them into cold showers and deprive them of food and water and medication and due process and it is also what happens in jails, juvie, and prisons to countless Americans on kind of a daily basis

people on the internet just don’t give a fuck about sharing spoilers anymore

The Ides of March is my favorite holiday. Which tyrant will *you* be regiciding today in celebration?

Asmon gold is like mind blowingly successful, to a point that totally eclipses Hasan or like anyone else. I’ve only seen him be nasty, is he also an incredible content creator? What’s going on there

Ohhhhhhh I get it, they did primary proof kayfabe

My years spent watching every Mr Beast video for absolutely no reason have finally paid off Beast Games: An Autopsy youtu.be/SaiMNBpN9Yw?...

A significant portion of Bsky is currently one bad day away from this

You absolute fucking schmuck. @schumer.senate.gov @chuckschumer.com

This is amazing and also the fact that the drug companies charge $3 million for it is a crime against humanity that should have its executives sent to the Hague.

Not just public welfare either. Public infrastructure in general. Mass public transit. Investing in public schools instead of defunding them. Actively combating food apartheid. List goes on.

reject the grind and embrace whatever the hell this is

Pro tip: if you aren't sure if a protest is legitimate, ask if they have legal support and who the lawyer for the legal support is. If the answer is no, don't go. Because experienced organizers don't have sign up sheets for protests. They do, however, have legal support beforehand.

This video is another hit - quarter of a million views in the first 24 hours! Thank you everyone!

Libraries are one of those many, many infrastructural things that if you lose, you basically lose for at least a human lifetime.

This is absolutely disgusting and has to be illegal. Is this the kind of thing someone can do a legal challenge for?

Caesar wanted to be dictator and the Roman Senators came up with a compromise to let him be dictator for the rest of his life

One of the inevitable things about the US slamming its dick in the car door with scientific research, is that the brain drain will be exponential. The top researchers, the biggest names in the field, will leave, taking with them their top students, the *next* generation's biggest names in the field

I'm here you fuckaas bitch

Fash: U can't say "pregnant people" that erases women!!! Us: Are women not people? Fash: EXACTLY that's what WE'RE saying! They are NOT!

Chuck Schumer needs to be fired. But like out of a cannon. In to the sun.

i’m here you fuckaas bitch

Alright, gonna try it out

My dad keeps asking me when I’m going to watch the Fallout show and I don’t know how to explain to him that the reason I haven’t watched it yet is because I’ve had a fascination with Walton Goggins ever since I watched The Shield as a kid and I think seeing him as a hot ghoul would brainrot me

Jesse Singal is a piece of shit. He is a transphobic bigot. He is evil. He is an architect of what is happening to trans people right now, and not content to manufacture consent for genocide, he's attacking individual trans people now. What he's doing to Ana is beyond the pale.

Sometimes I wish hell was real.

If u get tear gassed by the police, don't take a hot shower afterward I promise you do not want to do this

Dudes (gender non-specific) rock

In other news, 800,000 people have flooded the streets of Belgrade today in the largest protest in Serbian history. Despite threats of force, they are rising up against the populist government and president. A historic moment of defiance.

This is your brain on Democratic consultants. Any questions?

Zionists: How can you be a trans Jew and support Palestinians. Don't you know they hate trans people and Jews and would throw you off a rooftop? Literally every Palestinian I've met irl and On Here: You're a beautiful woman and it's wonderful to meet you, can we be friends?

Every person from the Harris campaign that was responsible for muzzling Tim Walz should be shot. Or at the very least never be allowed to run Democratic campaigns again.

man i leave twitter for like 3 weeks and they’re already on there talking about how i dress like a trans masc elizabeth holmes

I think this is true. And,l I continue to think that the trans community can be part of this fight, not as victims in need of protection, but as leaders whose core values of self-determination, individuality, and free expression are at the absolute core of what it means to be a non-fascist American.

Do you think Labout would have won such a majority if they'd campaigned on £6bn cuts for welfare? Do you think Starmer would be leader of the Labour party if he hadn't lied about everything? Heard the News Agents (them again) describe Starmer lying as 'saying what he had to to get elected leader'

My own father couldn't be bothered with me. One of the two men who stepped up to love me in his stead is dying. I'm not okay. I don't know how long this will be because cancer is a mercurial monster, but I implore you to keep fighting for what's right while I keep my house in order. 🖤

Every Democrat, including Warren and Sanders, voted to confirm this man.

Shove us back in the kitchen. I dare you. Enjoy your arsenic chaser.

I agree that cops should be charged with attempted murder

The fascism is here, folks

good morning say it back

What are y’all gonna do to celebrate when someone

Okay, enough awful news. Enough bad takes. Ask me some questions!

Really fucked up explaining the 1798 Alien Enemies Act & the 1942-46 American Japanese internment camps to my kids because it is actually breaking news in this year of 2025

This week on the podcast, we watch a lesser-known Scorsese film and have a sincere talk about religion

Are the Mega Man Battle Network games worthwhile if I’m someone who has only played Mega Man 2

Earlier this week a person during a consultation told me they thought my pay-what-you-can law practice model was unethical because it "sounds Marxist" and they'd rather have no lawyer than a Marxist one, so that happened

why is there a zaku in mega man 9

now playing 👁️👾

jesus christ, why can't these people just get the fuck out of our lives?

do you understand how fascist the united states is like you cannot sue police officers for violence they cause in the course of their job because the supreme court granted them qualified immunity. these ICE agents will never be punished for just doing their job. evil country down to the bone.

I looked cute yesterday!

Come and get your space suit on!! Episode 378 of “Don’t Touch My Spacesuit!” just dropped on Brandon Roger‘s channel! How are our heroes going to escape the clutches of Lord Wrathius and VILLAINEXIA this time??

In 1994, which was 31 years ago, the US government considered international transfer of encryption software to be equivalent to transferring nuclear weapons schematics. A T-shirt with RSA implemented in 3 lines of perl, was *extremely* illegal. War thunder illegal www.cypherspace.org/adam/shirt/

old.reddit.com/r/Professors... Math education is so bad in the US that professors of freshman courses are saying that they *can't even fail their students on the subject they are teaching* because the students need 4 years of remedial math just to get to that point.

In case you're wondering how cool my wife is, she just took apart and rebuilt a scooter that hadn't run in 13 years. In one afternoon. And now it runs perfectly.

In a well-ordered society, a man with who reeked as much of ambition as Newsom would be regarded as a danger to the public, and would be exiled from the city to live in a cave

This is the best short film of the year, nay decade www.youtube.com/shorts/t61FV...

Since Jesse Singal evidently watches what trans women post I'd just like to say that I specifically would like to see just Jesse Singal forced to watch as I, The Overseer of All Transness, turn the whole world trans before his eyes, and once he's cried his eyes out he dissolves into a puddle of goo

I'm Jewish and he's a collaborator, hope this helps

Implementing emergency masking policies, eh? In 2019 it was standard practice for people to mask in neonatal wards, it was totally non-controversial to be like "we might kill these babies if we infect them." Somehow nowadays masking is considered a last, emergency resort.

I'm not okay. And that's the new normal.

"The right are winning elections, the left are lost in identity politics" - intro to the latest News Agents podcast from people touted as the best pundits we have in the UK. Nobody - and I mean *nobody* indulges in identity politics more than the right. It is all they ever fucking talk about.

So, basically, everyone needs to treat DOGE, ICE, and any other weaponized arm of this lawless administration is to treat them as though they are vampires - distract them with meaningless tasks, answer their questions with riddles they cannot solve, and never, ever invite them in.

Serbia's government bought their LRAD to blast the ears and brains out of peaceful protesters from the same US company that makes the same LRAD that American cops use to blast our ears and brains out here direktno.rs/vesti/drustv...

Google released their new Gemma3 open weight language models the other day, meaning I can run them here on my computer I remembered all of the ethics promises about these, and then I took ten minutes and broke its brain so it only lies in subtly pervasive ways. Try it This is the danger; not AGI

Me, a tall redhead with blue eyes and autism & ADHD who likes girlkissing and has a weird relationship with my own gender, with 2 blue eyed tall queer trans kids both with ADHD and autism and one of em's a redhead: Huh must be the Tylenol and vaccines and phones that did all that

do you really think it isn't already doing this, bc if so lol

She's headed out, lads

I’m here you fuckaas bitch

Today's legal term of the day is "hearsay." Hearsay is an out of court statement offered to prove the truth of the matter asserted. That's legalese for the simple proposition that you cannot testify to what your cousin Fred told you he saw. Only Fred can do that, and he has to do it in court.

I am expanding my transgender news website, with a new focus on giving a platform to trans activists, covering their actions and protests, making sure that our people's resistance is seen and heard and can reach others. www.assignedmedia.org/newsletter

Folks gave it a real strong showing but Democrats don't give a fuck about you or what you say they feel absolutely safe giving everything to fascism and if the ones you like don't leave the party are they really principled anti fascists? Answer for yourself but act accordingly

Kim Kardashian draping herself over a cybertruck like a soulless mannequin for a magazine cover is peak dystopian propaganda filth. How do you condemn Kanye for being a Nazi, then turn around and cozy up to Elon, who is also a Nazi? Moral bankruptcy beyond words.

I just realized none of the bridge crew of the Enterprise D were American and I'm okay with that.

amusing how a show that's an acidic critique of their customer base and aesthetic gets an unironic merch collab

I'm in NI so (hopefully) don't have to worry about this but if they do this to me, and they haven't kicked every single cis person on HRT out as well, I'll be suing them - loudly - even if I have to sell everything I own and bankrupt myself.

Like many non-bird theropod dinosaurs, Komodo dragons have ziphodont teeth - sharp, compressed from side-to-side and knife-like, with serrated edges. Teeth to puncture and then cut off gobs of flesh or viscera.

so pro-democracy protests have ramped back up again in korea and someone wore a keffiyeh with a traditional green and red hanbok to look like a giant walking palestinian flag <3 <3

Good Trouble Time. Be heard.

Gender-critical activists ‘tracked by terrorism unit’ [Times]

one of the coolest things bernie sanders has ever done. Also, anything that makes right-wing fascist freaks like chaya Raichik anger is innately a great thing

I know my insistence on having legal support for protests and actions is annoying. I get it. But it's important, ESPECIALLY now. And since I do legal support for Illinois protests for free, I put my money where my mouth is.
