I'm a resident of the Twin Cities. A small team and I spent 3 days sculpting this for a competition/festival in extremely cold temperatures. We were disqualified for political messaging and one of the organizers defaced it. I have no regrets and I have never been more proud to be Minnesotan. (cont)

If you're in that Signal chat, you should start posting excerpts from that NYTimes expose with all the FBI agents mocking him.

The woman who survived five gunshots from a Border Patrol agent in Chicago, only to be criminally charged and then cleared, now wants a judge’s permission to share records showing how the feds respond when agents use deadly force. @chicago.suntimes.com story: chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

I have VERY sensitive hearing (to the point I have to wear ear plugs to be able to sleep) and am especially sensitive to high-pitched sounds. Use the anti-ICE whistles.

Rest in Peace Alex Jeffrey Pretti🙏🏾 The VA ICU Nurses send him off right 💔

Thread of right-wing and libertarian provocateurs to watch out for today.

The @usdot.bsky.social, which oversees the safety of airplanes, cars and pipelines, plans to use Google Gemini to draft new regulations. “We don’t need the perfect rule,” said DOT’s top lawyer. “We want good enough.”

How do you do, fellow neighbors?

All flags in San Diego County have been ordered to fly half-staff through Wednesday in solidarity with Minnesota, and in honor of those murdered by ICE. www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/s...

There is not a lot Canadians can do about ICE, but we can ask Parliament to investigate Canadian companies doing business with them, like Hootsuite. Call or email your MP - or contact the INDU House committee MPs. Will post link below. www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

It is very funny watching right wingers go straight into “anything that hurts my feelings is violence” without even doing any throat clearing about how this is different from all the stuff they just spent years making fun of. At least make up an excuse guys

Judge grants restraining order against DHS after Border Patrol kills Alex Pretti in Minneapolis www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/li...

the people shooting people and the people being shot both have an equal responsibility to reduce gun violence

My brother-in-law in Alvin, Texas says it's 16°F there now. He went out and saved eighteen geckos from the cold, and will release them again when it warms up.

At this hour: Whitehorse, Yukon: -6°F Broadwater, Nebraska: -21°F I think I need to move up north where it's warmer. /s

I mostly just stay off Twitter altogether but after double checking that the Walter Hudson post was still up I ran across this and just had to share so the Romancelandians who bought hand warmers could hear about the PROFESSIONAL GRADE LOGISTICS.

Thread of nine posts.

It's a balmy -23°F / -31°Commie outside tonight. I was going to take out the trash, but I think I'll wait until the air un-solidifies.

Capital is free to move, but labor is not. The enclosure process was to pen in people as well as animals and land. We’re livestock. If you can’t freely move, you’re cattle. Free to roam, free to emigrate, free to work and live. Free to unionize. Without these freedoms you’re a dog in a kennel.

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA

Thread of ten posts, on the BBC's both-siderist coverage of the shooting in Minneapolis, favouring DHS's lies in the reporting.

State propaganda

I am okay. Thank you for all the well wishes. We are in scary times. Please stay safe and do not let these people silence you. Onwards.

YAYY my post button is back! So: If you were wondering if ministers have become aware of alt-right Zoomer men joining their churches basically for the aesthetics of it, yes, they definitely have. (And they don't like it!) www.patreon.com/posts/aesthe...

Alex Jones with the funniest possible response to this.

By Saturday afternoon, some Trump admin. personnel had already begun scouring the internet and other resources trying to find information on Alex Pretti, including social media posts, that could tie him to what Team Trump call “extremists,” two sources familiar with the matter tell @zeteo.com …

I cannot imagine the devastation this family is experiencing today. This statement is powerful and must be read.

As we debate increased discipline for struggling students and cuts to disability support, it matters to note that the Governor is driving these policies while proudly and publicly using slurs for disabled people.

We can all get things wrong, but if I had been this consistently and catastrophically wrong about such important issues I don't think I could carry on publishing my opinions every week. I'd want to go away and think about how I'd so badly misunderstood the things I write about.

Meta is the creepiest platform because last night I had a dream about this woman I’m FB friends with but who I HAVE LITERALLY NEVER MET and her ex was talking shit about her and I was like, “idk she seems nice, and her new gf is cute” AND THEN

So have I. Those camps and schools destroyed the lives of several people I love.

Doing okay over there, WSJ?
