It's worth noting that the population of Minnesota is about 5.8 million, so close to 1 in 100 people in this entire amazing state showed up to say #FuckICE today

Breaking NYT: The FBI agent who sought to investigate the federal immigration officer who fatally shot Renee Good has resigned from the bureau, according to two people familiar with the matter, after leadership pressured her to discontinue a civil rights inquiry into the officer.

ICE has detained two Hopkins students and their parents, a school official said.

Not take the 5 year old and use him as bait, that’s what.

Just saw on KARE 11 that this boy was sent to a detainment facility in Texas and that his family didn't know his whereabouts for almost 24 hours.

Folks, if you know any Minnesotan, you'll know that many of us will bring up Minnesota and Minnesota things at every possible opportunity. If we manage to ride out military occupation, we're going to be absolutely insufferable for the next 20 years. Think about what you're risking here.

just a reminder that we aren’t even seeing the worst of what is happening in Minneapolis from someone detailed at the Whipple Federal Building yesterday

Flu numbers are high in most states and almost all cases are variants of H3N2 and the vaccine includes H3N2 Get your flu vax if you haven’t already! Even if you still get the flu, the symptoms will be easier to manage if you get vaccinated!

This NYT story failed the reader by not digging deeper. One subject dropped out of college after one year (five years ago) and lists "Windows" as his skillset. Story should be: young conservatives who blame immigrants for their personal failures and whose lives won't be improved w/ fewer immigrants

I guess it's fitting that it's a reimagined, worse version of someone else's artwork

I say this as someone whose entire job is finding the narrow use cases in which AI is actually useful: All the fear about AI, all the reluctance to adopt it, is entirely legitimate, and a product of the fact that it's been foisted on the public with no consideration of its negative externalities.

something you have to understand about Trump & his weird comments about the economy is that the dude hasn't paid for anything like a normal person in decades - never pumps gas, never buys groceries - so he's completely & utterly out of touch with what life is like for most of us

God help us all.

Somali immigrants in Minnesota make our state a more diverse and vibrant place to raise children. Those who say otherwise don’t live here, or live in any community with a diverse population.

This is the ultimate “bring back a past I’m nostalgic for without recreating any of the material conditions that made that possible.” Peak MAGA brain.

Heat like what, agreeing to overturn the ACA? That kind of heat, Chuck?

(Quietly lowers newspaper, removes pipe) Who the hell is Mark Sanford?

Issue?!?? Goddamnit say what this really is!

Right, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels. The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.

I'm so worried about what'll happen when our kids are old enough to have phones!!!! 😮😮😮

If I may, fuck Kim Davis for all time.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

With the White Stripes’ induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this week, can we finally put the arguments about Meg White’s drumming to rest? She belongs there, and it’s way past time. Commentary ↓

My entire Instagram feed is full of lucky Europeans at Radiohead concerts and I’ve never felt more FOMO in my life.

This is insane. Is there *any* race that was expected to be at all close that the GOP won?

There are more of us than there are of them.

Hell yes, Virginia

How many Radiohead references can you count?

And the final word, from a local resident who voted for Trump

Sure did just see David Byrne riding a bike around Lake of the Isles.

It’s okay to be glad that restaurants are doing stuff like this AND absolutely furious about the utter failure of the United States government.

If you see someone stealing food - no you didn't.

CHINA DOESN’T PAY WE DO MY GOD WE’VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR MONTHS.

Turn off your Face ID and Touch ID if you are taking your phones to the protests. Keep it in airplane mode and use encrypted apps where possible. Protect yourself. #3E #NoKings #50501Movement #indivisible #wearetheflood

If only OpenAI could have foreseen the entirely predictable hazards of irresponsibly releasing this tech. I guess the estate of every dead person will have to individually request a special dispensation to no longer have disgusting videos made by OpenAI’s tools.

They want you to be scared. They want you to be intimidated. They want you to shut the fuck up. Never shut the fuck up.

What the fuck?

1/ RFK Jr.’s promised autism “report” landed this week. Instead of new science, we got headlines, a press conference, and far-reaching claims drawn from decades of existing research. Parents and pregnant people were left with overwhelming anxiety. Here’s what the evidence actually says 👇

Is anyone else getting non-stop spam calls lately? Afternoons and evenings in particular.

Good thing this isn’t a busy airport at all! 😳

The response to every right winger’s fake tears about civility should just be “fuck you.”

This fucking guy. What a piece of shit.
