When you see the story about how the world now has its first trillionaire, and when you see the story about how laboratories in Congo have run out of supplies to test for Ebola, it is important to understand that in many ways these are the same story.

I love how they're just little dudes walking to their destinations

all my friends hate jacob frey and cops.

If you are using AI to generate text, you aren't a writer. You aren't writing. So no, speaking as a "working writer today", this generalization is absolutely backward.

i need people to understand that calls for "ethical ai" are calls for more ai it's like saying cops need more training. it sounds like criticism but functions as reason for more funding and does not ask if we need them at all

got to share this @bencollins.bsky.social banger with some colleagues today and am now sharing it here because he really did nail it

The USPS IS NOT LOSING MONEY. THE USPS IS SPENDING TAX DOLLARS ALLOCATED TO IT BY THE BUDGET. THE USPS SHOULD NOT BE REQUIRED TO ZERO OUT ITS BALANCE SHEET IT IS NOT A BUSINESS IT DOES NOT HAVE SHAREHOLDERS. IF THE USPS IS OUTSPENDING ITS BUDGET IT SHOULD BE ALLOCATED MORE BUDGET.

Disappointed, but completely unsurprised. Frey's the worst.

Heck yeah, I'll RT this cool lichen

From what I saw today firsthand it was the sheriffs today constantly escalating at people protesting peacefully. The sheriffs were masked up like ICE while working hard to agitate and provoke the residents they were sworn to protect, all so they could provide security for ICE who murders people.

If I were a head of state, I would think setting a precedent that assassination is a legitimate tool of state competition would be unwise

Spending the evening with Fifteen Dogs from @coachhousebooks.bsky.social and one judgemental cat. #booksky #caturday

ICE was the quarry target this morning and then driving dangerously through northeast & downtown. ICE is still very much here and we need to make sure we still have people out keeping watch for our neighbors.

Loved it. #weirdbooks #booksky

Wow.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.

I don’t believe anything they say, is the thing

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here. Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

As Minnesota's senior senator runs to replace Tim Walz as governor, her votes and positions on Trump, ICE, and labor should be disqualifying to progressive voters.

Another classic post-Homan day where around school dismissal time we get a flurry of ICE vehicles all across our neighborhoods. Today one vehicle led an observer to their own home and pointed at it. This is a sick game to them, but we won’t be intimidated and we won’t stop until DHS is abolished.

Celebrating #caturday with my best girl.

A useful re-read from @haymarketbooks.org in this moment when everything is dire and it's so necessary to imagine and build. #booksky

Everything you’re hearing from the Trump administration is a lie. Today was one of the most active days in Northeast since the entire Operation Metro Surge began. Nothing is changing on the ground in Minneapolis, no matter what headlines Trump and Homan try to create.

A lot of Dems are going to take Bovino and Noem being fired as the finish line, and it's very important to make it clear to them that it is a starting line

Here is a list of vigils happening tonight in Northeast & Southeast.

cannot tot up the levels of dumb that is "invade MPLS in the winter." Not only do we all thrive in these conditions, we build ART INSTALLATIONS in them.

If a Minnesotan says to you, "I don't plan to let you do that," run.

For you out of towners, I need to point out: ❄️ Powderhorn Park is in the center of one area of recent heavy ICE activity ❄️ It’s right by where Renee Good was murdered ❄️ With the wind, it’s a bit cold today in Minneapolis And yet South Minneapolis, doing its thing!

Morning.

100%

Missing you down here, today and always.

This is why the locals are telling you not to let Frey’s words fool you

If you think Frey should back up his words with his actions and instruct his cops to actually enforce *legal and binding trespass orders* from *hospitals and schools*, I would urge you (if you are a Minneapolis resident) to call his office at 612-673-2100.

"Thank you for calling The Void. Your scream is very important to The Void but right now it's overwhelmed. If you could please leave your scream at the beep The Void will accept it as soon as possible. Thank you. "

I just watched two women get kidnapped right in front of me in Northeast Minneapolis. ICE is still terrorizing our city.
