But we cannot rely on the courts alone. Trump is already defying numerous restraining orders, and the Executive branch controls the enforcement arm of federal law (U.S. Marshals Service).
When Trump inevitably refuses to comply with the courts and directs the DOJ/U.S. Marshals to stand down, effectively neutering the Judicial branch of the government, it will signal THE END OF U.S. DEMOCRACY.
Cannot express how disturbed i am by some people’s commentary on Luigi Mangione. Not bc “violence bad” but because yall are acting like he’s already guilty. Mangione and The Adjuster (or whatever you wanna call them) are, as far as anyone should be concerned, completely different people. Both are hot. Both are based. Both deserve public support. But as of right now, The Adjuster is anonymous. I understand the appeal of celebrating Mangione and the desire for a Robin Hood like figure—but acting as though he is already guilty will only harm his chances of a fair verdict.
Pictured: Luigi Mangione in an ‘anti self harm’ turtlesuit; a padded psychiatric gown after his arrest. Second photo is not Luigi, but shows how inmates appear when placed in the chair.
Third image is the chair itself.
Due to being presumed self harm risk upon arrest, and based on testimony of other Pennsylvania inmates, Luigi would have been kept in a padded gown, otherwise nude, strapped to a chair similar to this.
This chair is often referred to as 'the torture chair’ by his fellow Pennsylvanian inmates. It takes the place of a straitjacket and people are left in it for prolonged periods of time. They are cold, uncomfortable, and cannot move.
It should be noted that as strong and confident as Luigi Mangione appears in courtroom footage, his journey has not been an easy one. He is no longer being subjected to this, and is currently at MDC instead. He has written back to supporters to inform them he is warm and being taken care of now.
We don’t know why he was considered a potential danger to himself, it’s possible he mentioned he suffers from depression. Unfortunately this would be the prison’s response to hearing that information. It may also have been assumed by the high profile nature of his arrest.
It does not appear he was forced to wear a spit hood, but many inmates are also made to wear a spit hood (cloth bag) over the head while subdued in the chair.
(disclaimer: neither of these are photos of Luigi, just demonstrations of how one is subdued in such a chair) The first inmate is lucky to be wearing warmer clothing than Luigi was during his holding.

Luigi Mangione is an innocent man who has not been confirmed to have been involved in any crime.
We have police documents confirming he was not DNA tested or fingerprinted, and confirmation no usable DNA or fingerprints were recovered at the crime scene due to incomplete prints and immense DNA contamination of New Yorks streets.
No evidence has linked him to the crime.
No facial recognition has even remotely come close to identifying the cctv suspects face as that of Luigi. His own family and friends do not see a resemblance. Most people agree the features in the cctv do not match the very well documented features of Luigi Mangione.
Luigi Mangione has no history of violence nor with firearms. He is a vegan pacifist with no history of mental illness and an aversion to killing even bugs.
He is still only a SUSPECT and all involvement in any crimes are merely ALLEGED at this time. Alleged by the most corrupt police force in the entire nation; the NYPD who do more organized crime than they’ve ever stopped.
Luigi Mangione’s attorneys confirmed they have been shown absolutely nothing that even places Luigi at the scene of the crime.
People have repeatedly tried to recreate the entire timeline of events and found it is not physically possible to do what was alleged in the time frame police gave. Especially dubious for Luigi Mangione to have done given his recent, crippling back injury.
Luigi Mangione in his own words has said police planted evidence on him and are not being honest about his arrest or what he had on him at the time.
There is no body cam footage of Luigi’s arrest.
There is no autopsy report for Brian Thompson.
Luigi has so far been:
Stripped of his hat, jacket and shoes and forced to walk in the cold in December wearing wet socks.
Forced to urinate on himself where police then took and published humiliation photos of him.
He was then stripped of his shirt pants and socks and put in a blue psychiatric gown and strapped to a chair inmates called “the torture chair” and left for prolonged periods of time. To the point the entire inmate population at the prison protested in anger.
He was slammed unto a brick wall, choked, and shoved by various police officers for no reason.
Was marched through nyc at gunpoint by officers with military firearms, forced to wear chains
Was called a murderer by the mayor of NYC on national television.
Was then placed in solitary confinement for weeks. Something extremely damaging psychologically to be exposed to for even just a few days. Something usually reserved for cannibals.
He is now being forced to sleep on the floor despite again, a crippling back injury.
Again, he has not even had trial yet. He is an innocent man by the very definition of the law. He has nothing tying him to any crime. And even the crime itself was a nobody being shot in a city where nobodies are shot everyday, seven days a week. And those shooters don’t get this treatment. Cannibals don’t get this treatment. Serial killers don’t get this treatment. Why are they doing this? Because we entered an oligarchy and they want people who are rich to matter more than people who are not. The NO ONE, no name, insignificant person that Brian THOMPSON always was and WILL ALWAYS BE is more important because of his net worth, to the fascist oligarchy we’ve entered into, than the innocent man, data scientist and robotics engineer with a promising future that is Luigi Mangione.
The NYPD doesn’t want him to be innocent. They are torturing him gleefully and postponing his trial because they know he’s innocent. They just want to scare the public into understanding that the ultra rich, even those who’s names will never be remembered as anything other than markings on a never visited tombstone, are the only persons who matter now. Not yours. Never yours. You’re poor. They’ll torture you without a trial too. Your life means nothing to them. Your children dying in school shootings means nothing to them. Pinning a crime on an innocent man they can beat to scare the public out of class consciousness is the only thing that matters to them now. Depose them.
frotting by rubbing my short sword against your longsword mid-combat thus disorienting and confusing you leaving me an opening to attack
The idea of honorable combat is lost upon the bastard children. Counter with the puppygirl’s gambit by offering a treat for your surrender
you fool!! dont you know that offering a catgirl a treat only incetivizes her to repeat her behaviour to get more treats?
You buffoon, I’ve coated my blade in catnip. Now your body will instinctively let my blade through the gaps in your defense to get a hit of the good stuff.
I think parents should teach their toddlers the phrase “my will has been thwarted” for when they’re feeling frustrated by not getting what they want. I don’t think this would reduce the incidence of temper tantrums, but I do think it would make them more entertaining.
“Why didn’t they just communicate?? They’re so stupid!” Have you considered that communicating with someone you love and value and don’t want to hurt is scary and that vulnerability takes practice and that perfect characters with perfect words make the most boring stories of all
everywhere I go people are asking me for my email. my email is in high demand. it’s rare for me to visit a website without someone getting on their hands and knees, begging me for my email
I feel like normies think of tumblr as the fanart and aesthetic and gifset website but real tumblrinas know that our most culturally significant output and our lifeblood is the humble text post
Shout out to the little girl at my store today who had a shirt that said “skeleton mouse” and she was carrying around a plushie of a rat, had hair clips in her hair that had rats on them, and a necklace with a rodent skull on it.
As I was checking her mother out at the register she pulled out a handful of rubber rats from her pocket and put them on my counter, to which her mother sighed and said “no sweetie, he doesn’t need rats” to which I just looked at her like this
just rememvered that guy on tiktok whos been spraying his hands with dog medicine to make them hard as fuck and how the last time i saw him he was capable of sanding soft wood down with the palm of his hand
the UK gov’s approach to solving crime by banning weapons with increasing granularity is almost respectable if only because it means you periodically get to hear people who believe in that system get a little indignant like “well YOU would understand it if you had to deal with ninja sword massacres”
I don’t think it’s especially dignified to walk around mortified of getting robbed by a man with a knife or gun, but I think it’s even less dignified to try and explain to someone why exactly it’s adaptive to have recurring cultural nightmares where you’re jumped by squall leonhart
You don’t understand how often I restrain myself from posting about getting groceries. This isn’t supposed to be a groceries account. But you’ve gotta post about what you know and the groceries keep needing to be bought.
Anyone else in the “I think I might go get groceries today” fandom?
The best possible landlord is still a landlord, and stands at the top of a steep incline
He gives you a house for free that you never have to pay back for. He’s not a fucking landlord he’s a real estate agent you dimwitted radioactive mushroom. You’re never gonna get “evicted” you have complete sovereignty over your land, can place anything and everything you can fit in the space, put up whatever decorations paint jobs and wallpapers you want. The only downside is if you want to make a large purchase from HIS STORE you gotta pay off the last large purchase (you can still buy mailboxes and fences and nice cobblestone paths)His entire backstory is that he got his heart broken by capitalism and decided to move to a small town and give people affordable housing and affordable upgrades to said housing.
And the house? The money you don’t even have to pay unless you want HIM to expand your house for you?
18,400 bells
For reference a single apple sells for 100 bells
Which means you pay for a house (really you are paying for the upgrade) for the same price as 15 dozen apples.
You are literally buying a house for the same price as 15. Dozen. Apples
Let’s put that in perspective to say. America. A honeycrisp apple at Kroger costs 1.70 each on average meaning a dozen costs around 20 dollars. Meaning the price of a house in Tom Nooks store (that once again you never even have to pay back) is equivalent to a whopping 306 dollars.
That’s it. To pay off a house and let you get renovations you have to pay less than a single months rent at any apartment.
Go throw a pie in someone’s face since you want to be a clown.
That last line goes so hard.
I immediately had to go put it in Objection Maker.
i feel like ppl who are against kids transitioning don’t understand the degree to which pediatrics are fine with medical intervention for kids. like really? this is where you draw the line?
when i was like ten i couldn’t sit still in class so a bunch of adults unanimously decided to give me meth. like. hello
youth ballet training permanently alters your bone structure and frequently comes with lifelong health complications. but you don’t see suburban moms having a moral panic about that shit do you
