A heartbreaking investigation revealed that Trump's Bureau of Land Management is systematically rounding up thousands of America's wild horses, then quietly selling them off to buyers who are shipping them to slaughterhouses abroad.
Before, the U.S. government rarely sold wild horses. But since Trump took office, government sales have more than doubled.
Slaughterhouses pay up to $750 a wild horse, the investigation found.
The Bureau of Land Management is nominally in charge of protecting the 73,000 or so wild horses who roam America's public lands in the West. Under Trump, the Bureau is sending our wild horses to the slaughterhouse.

Christianity *is* literally a death cult that got normalized. It's a belief that life itself is evil and a distraction from the "true" life of heaven, that all human beings deserve to die from the moment they're born, that we're saved by the death of a god who we eat every Sunday
I don’t think the issue is that BTS is using red and black. An era should have its own identity, and Arirang absolutely deserves its own visual language. BE was black and white. Permission to Dance had yellow. BTS has never needed to use purple in every single campaign.
But there is a BIG difference between evolving a brand and erasing its identity.
Purple isn’t simply another colour BTS happened to use. Over the years, it has become part of BTS’s brand DNA and a symbol of the connection between BTS and ARMY. That doesn’t mean every future concept needs to be purple. It means that even as the visual identity evolves, there should still be foundational elements that create continuity and make the brand unmistakably BTS.
If “we’re evolving the brand” means Arirang is red and black, fine. But if it means purple is being deliberately removed from BTS’s foundational identity, then fans are absolutely justified in questioning that decision.
Strong brands evolve without erasing what made them recognisable in the first place. Longevity isn’t constant reinvention. It’s knowing what can change and what is worth preserving
I find it ironic that a bunch of women are actively harassing an organization that helps victims of domestic violence for getting rid of a man who supported another man known for domestic violence.
@gyrl40 One person has already been murdered with those gloves. The victim was shocked 27 times with the gloves and 13 more times by a Taser at a jail in Richmond, Kentucky.

something i really can't get over is the dissonance between complaining that all the comments on your livestreams are braindead "marry me" shit while actively cultivating that exact fanbase. whoever fills your pockets, i guess.
it has to be skin to skin contact, so if ur out protesting cover every inch of your skin. they're trained primarily to grab your arms. also the manual advises to keep the gloves away from water, particularly salt water. fun little fact for you.
How many people outside of Gary, Indiana are aware they haven't had electricity for a week? These videos on IG ny this young lady are the first reports I'm seeing that they have no power, fuel, or food (no refrigeration), and people are being robbed for generators and supplies.
Who would’ve thought that when you build your career on progressive politics that your fan base would be upset with you for being silent about a genocide, collaborating with Zionists and Ai companies, and supporting abusers. To be quite frank I am embarrassed on their behalf.
meaning you don’t understand that feminism is a collective movement; bc you think you are not harmed then it has nothing to do with you. your “self-respect” is so high you have no room to consider other women subjected to systems that violate their dignity.
‼️ BREAKING: Journalists hid an Airtag in a rare book shipment and confirmed Amazon to be one of the buyers behind the bulk orders destroying rare-books to feed their AI.
They tracked it to Amazon's LAS8 warehouse in Las Vegas, home to VGT3 (see logo below), a scanning operation feeding Amazon's AI training data, where workers say they cut the bindings off books to scan them faster.
Amazon won't say why the books are destroyed.
