IDK I was lucky enough to get to go to Greenland in 2015 and write about one aspect of Greenlandic culture - the Kayak. They were really psyched I was American and happy to be moving away from Denmark. Trump is destroying so much good will.

My friend who lived in arctic alaska would have to tell people this ALL of the time. I got her a penguin one year as a gag gift. But do you know what there are in Greenland? Polar Bears. Good luck embracing one of those.

I just feel like if my career was chasing down screaming children in the snow with the goal of throwing them in the back of my vehicle and taking them to a facility where they might die... I'd quit

How are you a grown ass man kidnapping children?

So we haven’t gotten occupation into the national outlets yet. We will. Unless they end the occupation.

Hard to explain where we have to be that Reconstructionist, Reform & Conservative Jewish movements issue a joint statement about something

Today is, among other things, a reminder that you don't get a general strike by posting that we should have a general strike. You get a general strike—on the rare occasions you do—by the long slow slog of building organizing power with those around you in response to local conditions.

ICE detain yet another minor child—chase him down his own street and tackle him to pavement. "I am legal! I am legal!" he cries over and over in Spanish. Agent pins the boy down in snow—he desperately tries to keep his exposed hands from freezing at -25°F wind chill temperature. Minneapolis, MN

When self-employed software engineer Nick Benson put out the call for dashcams online, he thought he’d get maybe 10 people to donate. More than 500 have shown up on his front porch in suburban Minneapolis.

As a transsexual I can't tell you how thrilled I am that fascists are feeling unsafe in bathrooms.

Did you know that there's a lawsuit underway challenging the legality of Trump's ballroom? Great writeup of yesterday's hearing here, including this highlight: “The ‘77 Gerald Ford swimming pool? You compare that to tearing down and building a new East Wing? Come on. Be serious,” the judge said.

It's already demoralizing to be a federal thug, a barely sentient ogre. Nobody likes or respects you. But then you go to work in -19 weather thinking surely today you'll get a break from people yelling at you. But no there they are. They're not even cold

kirk’s death became a pure media incident in a way that would probably scandalize even Baudrillard

Jfc does no one near Trump have a leash? apnews.com/article/carn...

It's annoying that we already had so many existing problems to solve before these assholes created a bunch of new ones for no reason

We can never recover what we were. We can try to make something new, but can’t go back. No other country can ever trust us again and our government system has been revealed to be dramatically vulnerable.

The reality is that 2024 was a fundamental test of the moral character of the nation and we failed spectacularly. We’re living with the consequences now. Maybe we improve. I hope so.

The leaders of Albania & Azerbaijan were filmed mocking US Trump for claiming he ended a war between the 2 countries, even though they have never fought each other. The world thinks that the occupant is a joke. He’s destroying our country. Congress must act.

The seven Democrats who voted in favor of renewing ICE funding are: Rep. Tom Suozzi (New York), Rep. Henry Cuellar (Texas), Rep. Don Davis (North Carolina), Rep. Laura Gillen (New York), Rep. Jared Golden (Maine), Rep. Vicente Gonzalez (Texas), and Rep. Marie Glusenkamp Perez (Washington).

Gent in glasses, "Why are we still fostering a special relationship with Donald Trump and the US" "When his recent actions prove that he can't be trust" Why indeed #BBCQT

Fiona Bruce, "President Trump said the troops NATO sent to Afghanistan stayed off the front line" Emily Thornberry slams Donald Trump #BBCQT "It's an absolute insult" "An insult to 457 families who lost someone in Afghanistan" "How dare he say we weren't on the front line" "How dare he"

I just voted AGAINST funding for ICE. Not one dollar for cruelty and cover-ups. Congress must leverage the power of the purse to hold Donald Trump accountable.

His name was Geraldo Lunas Campos. If you pay taxes in the US, you paid 4 ICE officers to hold him down while a 5th choked him to death. This murder is more likely to be justified as a natural consequence of being a "criminal alien" than to be prosecuted. We are hurtling quickly down a dark path.

Ummm noooo. Mayor Wu, get an injunction against this before it starts happening in Boston. Watch the playbook elsewhere and get ahead of it to protect the people.

Nearly 400 millionaires and billionaires across 24 countries are demanding Davos leaders tax them more: ‘Tax us. Tax the super rich.’ fortune.com/2026/01/21/n...

Europe has to know how to protect itself without the U.S., Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said during his speech in Davos — adding that sending 40 soldiers to Greenland is “ridiculous.” More from his speech on our live blog: www.politico.eu/article/mani...

🇺🇦A call to unite Europe, accept the reality, that wars with the irrational russians who completely disregard international law, can’t be won through deals. Only strength & a united front can prevail over such neo empires. A powerful speech by UAV Commander of Ukraine's 3rd Army Corps in Davos:

⚡️ 'Nothing has changed' — Zelensky criticizes Europe's inaction in Davos speech after Trump meeting. "Just last year, here in Davos, I ended my speech by saying Europe needs to know how to defend itself. A year has passed, and nothing has changed," Zelensky said.

*cough*

President Zelensky at Davos: “What will Iran become after this bloodshed? If the regime survives, it sends a clear signal to every bully: kill enough people and you stay in power.” #Iran #IranMassacre

President Zelensky received a standing ovation at the World Economic Forum in Davos after delivering a powerful address. The entire hall rose to applaud as he concluded his speech, which centered on Ukraine’s resilience, global unity, and the need to end Russia’s aggression. #Ukraine

Elon Musk shows up on stage at Davos, a place he has hated on from afar for years. After tepid applause, his interviewer, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, asks the crowd to clap again.

The best illustration of where the blues came from I've ever seen is Delroy Lindo in the car in Sinners recounting a lynching and transitioning into a wordless song. Great performance from a longtime great actor, who worked comedic moments into it as well. Glad to see him getting some recognition.

Look. A year ago if you told me one person was going to play twins, I am going to assume your movie is bad. Then I saw Sinners. Now I think the rest of these actors are lazy. Only playing one person. Pfft.

A little A.V. Club thread on the Oscar nominees? Why not! We loved Sinners when it first came out www.avclub.com/sinners-review And hated the weird racism around its success www.avclub.com/sinners-open...

1/The law requires a judicial warrant based on probable cause signed by a judge to enter a home or private area in a biz (not an administrative one signed by an “immigration authority” ie a DHS employee). This is clearly unlawful conduct. ICE can’t change the law just because it doesn’t like it.
