long live JAKE

Thrilled to have two poems, “Longevity” and “Thin God,” in Passages North! Here’s one: www.passagesnorth.com/passagesnort...

Every leftist should read this book.

Full Bad Bunny speech

Still can’t believe barely any US music press covered Earth canceling that gig over the Palestinian flag. Everybody’s cool with that? As the IDF trains police at cop cities and ICE uses their surveillance tech on all of us?

404 Media is publishing a version of the user guide for the Palantir-made tool called ELITE, which lets ICE bring up dossiers on individual people and provides a “confidence score” of their address. www.404media.co/here-is-the-...

Two poems out in the new issue of Dunes Review: “In Reverse” for my beloved, creative, joyful, compassionate, and terribly missed friend Tom, and “Minutes” for Shea, my exquisitely beautiful partner, who is radiant enough to transcend space & time but is somehow bound by it anyway 🖤💫

My fiancée has two poems out in the new Dunes Review. They’re two of my all-time favorites from her. Please check them out. Link to buy them in the comments.

Elon...They scrubbed Trump from the files but not you. They're setting you up to take the fall! You gave them $300M and this is how they thank you. Next they're coming for your subsidiesss and contractsss

A new story for you, friends. The telephone was a mistake, actually. 📱 🤖 😱

Washtenaw County: if you know folks who use the bus system to get around, please see about offering them a ride instead.

"Someone in Minnesota is driving. It is not Walz or Frey. It is not Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem or Donald Trump. It is the people themselves: the outraged, galvanized, multiethnic working class, who see the imperial boomerang spinning toward their heads," writes @attackerman.bsky.social

are the gop related to the ferengi

“They want violence” no they very explicitly want compliance and acquiescence and if you don’t give it to them they will fucking murder you

I have had that feeling before where in the middle of an action you feel how tangibly another world is possible, but this time I feel it across an entire city. So many here are seeing what life could be like if it were organized around different principles, if the rhythm were completely different

This was murder. Pretti did not initiate the confrontation. He didn’t strike them. He didn’t brandish his gun. They tackled him, beat him, disarmed him, and shot him.

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

More money for training? I'm sorry, are they re-releasing Birth of a Nation in IMAX or something?

Alex Pretti’s last words were “are you ok?” said the woman next to him who ICE also pepper sprayed in the face.

I do in fact think the Minnesotans standing up to ICE are doing something braver than anything this nation’s founders ever did

He was a nurse.

makes me miss my old guy

LRT: No streamer or press should be covering any games by Microsoft or Activision anyway because of the BDS boycott but Call of Duty is explicitly a right wing fantasy and needs to be wiped from existence

like what are games outlets even doing? Their only coverage of Microsoft at this point should be that it's a company that helps governments murder people and that's it

Video before it happens is showing this guy they shot in the head in Minneapolis was just standing there videoing them before and they got out to push him back and then murder him.

they executed a guy for filming them

A lot of Democrats got in on this and now a right wing billionaire is in charge.

I don’t think the ICE people realize how constrained and civil Minnesotans have been so far in their response to all this

ICE agents killed a man and are disappearing the witnesses.

How about fucking doing something instead of just posting that you want the president to stop?

ICE must be abolished and everyone involved must be prosecuted and permanently quarantined away from society

We are in a total free fall into American Nazism.

Really great that ICE is just executing people on the street and kidnapping children and journalists on CNN like Jake Tapper are more concerned about the right terminology being used by protesters. So much of the US political press are just cowardly ghouls

Given that TikTok is now owned by Trump’s friends, I would recommend deleting it off your phone

Cannot see the end of it.

🚨 ICE is creating a watchlist of anyone and everyone who films them, DHS sources tell me: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/ice-making...

“Minnesota nice means prosecute ICE” is such a solid chant.

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

Wonderous little Michigan-oriented flash up this week. Hook, line, and sink into "The Great Metro Detroit Flood" from @vernorsofficial.bsky.social: Link: dishsoap-quarterly.com/1-20-26

I am *SO* excited to have The Great Metro Detroit Flood in this week’s Dishsoap Quarterly. They are such a sweet little online mag. THRILLED (AHH!) to have a piece with them. Huge thanks to @zreayellers.bsky.social for accepting this. I hope you enjoy it!

I grew up hearing stories from my father about how folks abducted by Franco’s secret police would routinely “escape” to the roof of police HQ and “commit suicide.” The obviousness of the lie was itself an intimidation tactic.

reminder that we're always open for subs :)

🚨 NEW: Obama-era Democrats sold a myth of presidential powerlessness to excuse inaction. Trump is now demonstrating, in real time, how false that myth was.

People here are outside patrolling their neighborhoods in this, trying to keep their neighbors safe from lawless armed masked goons. Armed with whistles and vests, they are essentially fighting a war against their own government and its ethnic cleansing campaign.

Antifascists have been talking for a long time about how countering fascism is at its core community defense work. It is keeping each other safe.
