…the idea that exploitation and extraction are acceptable costs of living is not acceptable. It’s one of the reasons I’m not currently running a retail metaphysical shop anymore—I know where things come from. And more folks should care about the cost of our convenience.

I went through and added up the total paid rents through our adopt-a-rent program, and it is 329 families for $463,217. All peer-to-peer, no fundraising. Just neighbors helping each other out. If you want to adopt a family, and can afford to give $500 or more, signal me at asiniiwiikwe.72

we’ve knocked $10,000 off this need. please keep sharing!

Dispatches from MN: it's getting really hard, guys. The media has left, the donations are drying up, and ICE is still here kidnapping people. It's hard not to be resentful that other people have the option of setting this aside for.other things.

Block by block, our South Minneapolis neighborhood got through February by tapping our networks to cover rent for immigrant families, but rent is due again on Sunday and we need to raise at least $26K to make sure our neighbors aren’t evicted givebutter.com/corcoran-nei...

No matter where you live, if you have any capacity to volunteer, we have a lot of unpaid folks helping administer rent and skymiles donations, and we need more support.

funders: “rent is to complicated” rent funds: “so, we actually just give people their rent money.”

Gallego: "They're going and racially profiling people and rounding up Americans until they can prove their citizenship. That money came from kicking millions and millions of Americans off Medicaid. It was the same bill. They cut Medicaid to expand ICE."

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.

It’s eclipse season…again 🐍

Our mutable heavy household is currently enamored with the Olympic biathalon, and I love that for us.🔫⛷️

Loved listening to @byjoveastro.bsky.social talking with her teacher Britten LeRue on the Moon to Moon podcast Janessa gives her field perspective of what’s happening in her Minneapolis home & how she’s navigating it in these times. Thanks for sharing Janessa 💕 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...

one thing that comes across in these clips is that bondi is totally out of her depth. just an absolute lightweight. barely sentient.

Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

"A girl living in central Minnesota alleges that immigration authorities separated her from her family and detained her overnight in a hotel, where she was forced to share a room with federal agents" www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

This is irresponsible. Not one elected official can claim this is a good return on investment or has increased public safety. This is bigger than “Somali Fraud” but yall don’t lose your shit over this ever.

I’ve opened up my eclipse readings. It’s my most acce$$ible reading Ask about area of life for the upcoming eclipse & I’ll send you a recorded mini reading calendly.com/practicalast...

just an update from when we talked to the reporter: we’ve now successfully connected over 100 families for direct, peer to peer rent adoption. we’ve collected and immediately distributed…a lot. it is a drop in the bucket, but all of this is. everyone is just doing what they can.

Bloomington Police just announced they've arrested a Department of Defense employee in a sex trafficking sting. The police chief said his job is to do background checks and security clearance checks on ICE agents.

My astrology consultation availability is up for March, including one or two weekend dates! 🩵 sacralmystic.com/astrology

I wish this were satire.

This has happened to one observer THREE times. ICE agents in vehicles followed an observer to her home. Then pointed at her home. As if to say, we know where you live. Three times stalked by ICE.

Eclipse season begins today, and both the pace and importance of events will increase rapidly, as we head into the first eclipse in Aquarius on Feb 17.

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

the status quo is supported by people with resources believing that the only responsible way to help the “less fortunate” is to give to the appropriate organization that redistributes it to the worthy. our system was built to fail the people in the moment we are in—to protect systems of oppression.

We reviewed more than 100 Minnesota license plates attached to immigration enforcement vehicles in recent weeks. We found that nearly 60% were not registered with the state of Minnesota, including the Chevy Tahoe that federal agent Jonathan Ross traveled in the day he fatally shot Renee Good.

A man taken into custody in Rochester Thursday by federal immigration agents and now held at the Whipple Federal Building in the Twin Cities is a recent organ transplant recipient who is without his needed anti-rejection medication, state Rep. Kim Hicks tells MPR News.

Living in Minnesota right now means getting your heart broken every day, multiple times a day. Some days it also means having your faith in humanity restored. Please keep watching Minnesota, if you live elsewhere. Things are still dire.

I said we were done asking for rent money. But today I heard the horrifying fact that there are zero family shelter beds in the entire state of Minnesota. So we are going to try something new. We are going to do peer to peer funding. You take on urgent‼️ funding for one family. You send to them.

today is the last day i will ask you to donate to people’s rent this month. we are trying very hard to meet a $30,000 goal today to help the last few families on our list before their rent grace period ends.

This morning, federal agents staged at the Powderhorn Park Recreation Center lot and began to throw chemical irritants at observers. They also kidnapped an observer. Our parks are meant for our children, youth, and neighbors. They should never be militarized zones meant to separate families. 1/

So... are we going to work tomorrow or...?

NEW: School hallways are silent. Grandparents patrol outside in shifts. Two more kids taken from Liam Ramos' school. Trump isn't deescalating ICE at all at MN schools. “I stopped wearing my high heels to work. I wear my boots to work because I have had to run." www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...

straight up Gestapo shit

some good news buried among the horrible behavior listed: “The third woman said federal agents at her hotel are subsisting on microwavable bowls of Campbell’s chicken noodle soup, because it’s become so difficult for them to find restaurants willing to serve them.”

I am so serious when I say that when we get through this, all democrats need to be investigated for colluding with this administration in the destruction of our government. We do not have two parties at this point. There is no reforming this party or this system.

Homan is only one letter off from human but it’s an important distinction and he wants you to make it

It would be super neat if people would self-correct and use the word “partisan” more often when they say “political” but hey some Virgo battles never end

Me, in a mom group text with people I've never met before: Have you ever thought about a general strike?

Very little if anything seems to have changed on the ground. ICE is still out there terrorizing neighborhoods and trying to disappear neighbors. None of us on the ground are buying this bullshit. We will keep organizing and fighting.

my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

In case you are unaware: -it’s not illegal to have a group chat -it’s not illegal to film anyone in public (and it’s important, bc otherwise people just disappear) -it’s not illegal to tell people when you see masked officers -it’s not illegal to collect and distribute food ICE must leave MN.

ICE in minneapolis are causing international incidents because agents don’t understand what a consulate is and tried entering ecuador’s the country has put out a statement in spanish

Can confirm. Nothing has changed here.

NY/DC corridor media speeding right to the absolution of Trump and missing the fact that nothing has changed in Minnesota, despite his alleged change in tone

Spent the last few days de-googling my workspace. I should've done this a couple years ago but here we are. Proton for email, drive, calendar, vpn. Brave browser. A friend in cyber security shared this guide for Cutting Google Out of Your Life for anyone who needs it: git.tycrek.com/archive/dego...

the democrats have the same masters as the republicans. they are republican lite. they want ICE, just not so loud and noticeable. they want genocide, just with better PR.

They've lost linkedin.
