don't make the ADHD and/or Autistic nerds mad enough to get all of their hyperfocus & special interests into the same group chat

I don't want to violate the trust of those who are telling us stories when they email us, but our inbox is full of rage and sorrow and also just incredible hope. Also it makes it *super* clear that while they have their high profile targets, they are kidnapping folks EVERY. WHERE.

Y'all, we shipped ~45k whistles in December. I think we shipped ~35k whistles TODAY. This team of rogue 3D printing enthusiasts is... really rocking & rolling. 💓💃 And thank you to all of you who helped supply the filament & shipping $ so that could happen!

My wife’s favorite Forsaken. Hands down. Laia Costa is amazing in this role

Anyway, if you need whistles: linktr.ee/3Dwhistles

LTRY is also currently available at 20% off - www.haymarketbooks.org/books/1922-l...

Did you miss out on your last opportunity to bankroll the fully stocked pop-up leftist supply depot?? Do you want to send free hand warmers, winter gear, first aid supplies, YOU NAME IT, to the Twin Cities? This is your moment. Let's ride. www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/... (non 'zon in follow up!)

This is today!

I heard folks are wondering about the shadowy cabal of billionaires who have been funding handwarmers in the Twin Cities. Stay tuned, we have a new Twin Cities supplies wishlist dropping after dinner! Be the shadowy cabal you want to see in the world. 💓

Super popular in my household! My two eldest, my wife and I each have one on our desks.

the best part of this post is the roughly 17% of you who thought a harbor seal was holding back the apocalypse and is either metaphorically or literally cracking thank you for your service to us on this day

Seeing the NYT switch to active voice feels like watching a seal holding back the apocalypse crack

if I could get everyone to do one (1) book related thing right now, it would be to preorder Prince of Storms from Tropes & Trifles in Minneapolis. 1) I mean preorders make me look fancy 2) they are an amazing bookstore dedicated to hope & happy endings in a city going through it.

there are days my heart breaks and reading that woman's statement, knowing she's terrified to go home, knowing we can't tell her that she's wrong to be terrified... I believe we are going to win. I will hate them forever for making us fight.

Pez is an amazing human being in so many ways. I agree with everything all the way down the quotes. She gives so much to the world and deserves so much good back. If you could help, it would mean so much

Took me three tries to get it out to my GOP reps today, but they’re going to going to keep hearing it

To put an even sharper point on it... The moral call is to BEAR witness, not to consumption. In other words: to testimony, not passively offering eyeballs to horrific content.

Just so folks know, there’s been another shooting- here is a words only description with no video in thread. Take care of yourselves today.

A lot of people are fighting over whether or not watching a video of someone's death makes you a better activist or person and I would like to gently suggest that what you do in response to the video's existence is what matters, whether you watched it or not.

In double-digit-negative temperatures.

It is kind of a bummer because I truly loved seeing fun craft posts and food posts and nifty gadgets, but I uninstalled tiktok when I got the new ToS pop-up. If the Chinese want to target me to buy weird kitchen tools that is one thing, but I don't trust the US government. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I'm currently loving An Arcane Inheritance by Kamilah Cole - a moody and atmospheric dark academia, with a mystery steeped in déjà vu, magic, and secret societies that I desperately want to know more about, and an amazing slow-burn rivals-to-lovers (at least I hope)

Most of the people I saw saying a general strike couldn't just be spun up out of nowhere were right. I don't think any other place could pull this off right now. The Twin Cities built a citywide support system on every front in like 6 weeks, they are doing the ridiculous backwards in heels.

I completely missed that there was a new Fable coming out - but I’m even more excited that I’ll actually be able to play it without getting an Xbox!

I couldn’t bear to move her out of my office chair - so I stood and worked all day today.

It should enrage and galvanize the entire nation, not just Minneapolis.

I mean, no shit. I've said it before--I am literally more professionally qualified to lead the FBI than Kash Patel. That is not a joke. Your friendly neighborhood spicy fantasy romance writer is more qualified for the FBI Director's job than he is.

These baby lobsters are so cute!

This is one of the best movies I’ve ever seen and it deserves to sweep the Oscars

The headline makes me think the know their AI is useless. The subheadline makes me think they have never tried it - because it literally doesn’t amplify any cognition. This is such a huge con and waste of money and why are so many businesses buying into it????

If this is selfish, then I am too, because YES.

Pretttttyyyyyy 😍😍😍

Im ridiculously excited for this one: she’s buried alive, he’s a gravedigger and rescues her. A deadly family conspiracy, second chance romance, and danger ensue as they try to stay alive! Valentine’s Slay by Navessa Allen

20 of 243: "I go where she goes!" Ragga Ragnars as Bain made for a perfect pair with Chiad and translated both the comic relief and formidable nature of the character from page to screen perfectly. A true Maiden of the Spear. #TheWheelOfTime #SaveWOT

BELOVEDS WE HAVE OUR INSTRUCTIONS

I love Edgar Allan Poe - this looks so good.

This book has been in my TBR forever. Seems like this is a perfect push to start it!

LACK OF CAMERAS IS NOT MINNESOTA'S PROBLEM. are we really gonna pay $20 million for them to record more angles that they'll just stand there and lie to your face about?

Definitely bringing a book on the plane. Will probably buy a book at the airport before my first flight. Might buy a book at my layover. Will absolutely buy a book* wherever I end up. Repeat on return. *at least one, probably more

One of the most experienced members of the Whistle Avengers who helped me perfect my printing technique has finally agreed to put up a wishlist for their many many whistles they've been printing! This one's for the folks who love bright colors! 1 spool = 450 whistles! www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

I no longer have a cervix and thought this wasn’t necessary for me - until my doctor told me it also helps prevent throat cancer! I immediately got the vaccine! I wish someone had told me earlier the other benefits of this vaccine.

How can I disturb her to put my clothes away??

It's time to start making your plans! Romancing the Vote returns July 1st - July 5th, 2026! * authors, start annotating those books * artists, start making that art * experts, start plotting your consultations Stay updated: updates.romancingthevote.com

Hey y'all! One of our 3D printing pals is so invested they are headed out to buy two new printers just to up whistle production! If you'd like to help them stock up on filament to keep them all going, here is their wishlist! www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

Same. And even then actual ringing and tones are a no-go for me, and its vibrations because the sounds (no matter the ringtones or notification tones) just make me have serious flashbacks to some bad times

Hey friends! I'm back with another wishlist from one of our 3D printing pals! They are swiftly running out of filament, so if you would like to send some their way, pick your favorite color and it will become whistles that will annoy the worst people in the world! www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

The Patriot Act, and all similar measures, were were what made me sit up and start getting involved in politics and voicing my opinions - but I was young and youth felt like it meant very little in politics at the time. It never stopped me, but it took me a long time to find any like-minded people

Thanks to an EXTREMELY generous donation from author pal Jennifer Armentrout, we get to redirect a lot of the whistle money we've raised over the past week to orgs on the ground in the twin cities who need help! @ziibiing.com's website is a huge help in finding who, well, needs help!

I came up with things for my angel and devil pigeons to say, please feel free to use this as a reaction image for dem politicians.
