I have a folder of pictures and screenshots just labeled "the end" that I've been keeping for a couple years. The tone of them has changed lately, but I figured I'd share them.

Added this one out of order

Thanks to @dendycrew for this one

Came across a new one today...

A drive through strip club in Oregon provides a horny end times image:

Coming to a state capital near you in 2020.

Instantly added to my folder holy shit

Some from the Mexico and the US with the last one from @PhoneInSpace

Went back and forth on this one because I agree with the act, but the fact that it is necessary and happening is still a sign of acceleration. Armed black panthers demonstrating in the neighborhood in Georgia where a black man jogging was ambushed and murdered by two white men.

Scene from the wildfires in California from @MadRadhu and I beach in Australia where people fled from fires last year (forgot who sent this second one to me).

It seems sort of indulgent to add any more pictures to this thread at this point, considering we're at the end now, but I had to include these two shots of Chicago from Saturday:

One more had to be added with thanks to @invictahog

Some new ones:

And the empire strikes back with the last of the three thanks to @_Olson_

Thank you @Chef_Lu_Bu for this series goddamn:

Statues to evil causes have fallen or been defaced throughout the world, but the stonk bull will remain untouched if the NYPD had anything to say about it:

Cops in America adopting siege posture. Police station in Richmond has concrete and hesco barriers like FOBs in Afghanistan and two stations in Minneapolis have, well, whatever this is...

These two drawing guns and yelling at BLM protesters marching past their house deserved a spot. Suggested by @CultOfSignal and photos by @BILLGREENBLATT

America asks, "Why not both?" Courtesy of @chilibone

Thanks @WarshipPorn by way of @MadRadhu

Unmarked federal LEO with suppressed AR and another with sidearm drawn and sweeping the crowd in Portland. Clear escalation of state violence against unarmed civilians protesters. From: @MathieuLRolland

Police departments, courthouses, and now the White House all fortifying against unrest. They know America hates them. Are the walls and the troops going to work?

A couple of cracking headlines from today...

Mailboxes in Portland being loaded onto the back of a truck. One of many methods being used to interfere with mail-in ballots for the 2020 presidential election. Photo taken by @Intersection911

The first of these is from @substationradio and the amazing mail truck is from @BenConneran and originally @comradebirb

It's fire season 2020 in California (thanks @_alexweinberg):

Right wing protester with a cocked gun aimed at BLM protesters in Portland today.
