Holy text. Happy Passover.

One of the most @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social coded things I’ve ever seen.

I hate April Fool’s Day. That said, he does have the opportunity to do the funniest possible thing tomorrow.

what people sound like when they say i asked claude

Your friendly neighborhood jewel box.

I cannot get over this “parking job” I saw this week.

There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash. ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to. The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty. Budgets are moral documents.

If I were, say, a lobbyist for the airline industry I would be losing every molecule of my shit right now.

Just a perfect mural in a perfect restaurant on a beautiful day on the friendly island.

Anyone else having, like, A LOT of trouble sleeping?

Me, every time I read another article about AI.

They spent your tax money on killing children. I think it's worth us spending our tax money prosecuting and punishing them all. No one will argue against it. It is a popular stance. Don't be a pussy. Stand up for those girls who were killed in our name.

Literally no one: Some guy on St. Martin:

never, ever, ever, ever accept "how will you pay for it?" as an argument against social programs.

"Second or third place is dead."

Just want to note that 3am in Washington is like 11:30am in Tehran. The American people are the ones he snuck up on in the dead of night to conduct this illegal attack, not the purported enemy.

Power went OUT out at 6am, and I didn’t think to grind more coffee yesterday. That rodent is going to pay.

The groundhog did this.

Fresh, ripe papaya tastes like a chemical weapon.

a trans woman i know is being deported back to the USA due to the Home Office messing up paperwork. her wife is desperately trying to raise the funds to prevent this. they have 48 hours before she’s put on a plane and might never be able to return. please, help if you can. they’re both terrified.

Turn! These fuckin things! Off!

They want to scare people out of posting ICE-critical content, because they know these posts are turning even their supporters against them. But the better option is to take a page out of their playbook and flood the zone.

Wait — this thing? bsky.app/profile/curs...

Threw a gigantic 5-DJ party in Ptown last night, sending all the proceeds from the door and bar to Minnesota mutual aid to the tune of $5k. We knew where to focus thanks to standwithminnesota.com. Big “joy is an act of resistance” energy. Whatever you’re good at can be used to help other people!

It’s not a withdrawal until ICE is abolished. I have neighbors everywhere.

Have never seen someone put this better.

Actually my favorite scene in comedy history.

Would absolutely watch the “Men Experiencing Consequences Olympics.”

The choice to frame this rhetorically as a negotiation *with ICE and DHS* rather than, you know, a decision about their future made by their rightful superiors in the popularly elected legislature is, to me, incredibly grating.

Demonizing multiculturalism is such a stupid philosophical pratfall because everyone you’re trying to make into the enemy is so much fucking cooler than you.

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

Every time one of you starts your beautiful, shiny, new newsletter on this platform, it chips away a piece of my heart. Knock it off.

If it weren’t for that Mayor Mamdani clip this morning, this phone would 100% be at the bottom of the sea.

Chuck, our house is on fire and you’re suggesting a ten point plan to regulate the kind of hose we’re allowed to use to put it out in the future. The house is on fire now, man. This sucks.

“Oh, hey you! Nice to see you too!”

Reasons to be cheerful — or at least, not in complete despair.

A small spot of really good news.

*sigh* Before you say violence isn't the answer, you should really hear the question.

This, but with brass knuckles.

DIG UP THAT FUCKING GOLF COURSE. WHAT ARE WE ALL DOING? I feel like I’m losing my mind.

Okay, today, that is ENOUGH.

Masked secret police beating and murdering Americans who get in the way of an ethnic cleansing campaign isn't crossing a red line for Dem leadership. College kids calling for an end to genocide was. The lesser evil feels pretty fucking evil.

“We are a Minneapolis 2nd grade Brownie Troop of 12 including trans and neurodiverse youth and 75% BIPOC kids. We want to go to summer camp and try horseback riding! During the current ICE occupation we need your support more than ever...” And that’s how I ordered 4 boxes of thin mints.

Hey, this Bovino thing is a pathetic attempt to make all these horrors the fault of one guy, and it would be a serious, serious crisis if people fell for it. ICE needs to be abolished, bc this - terror, murder - are what it exists for. Nothing else. This is just an attempt to mollify us. Stay angry

This afternoon I said, “Oh, they are going to throw this man under an entire fleet of busses.” I didn’t expect to be proven right this quickly!

A really good person died for this shit. I hope these motherfuckers never sleep another hour in their lives.
