People keep asking where the cops are. They’re here! They’re just protecting the feds! This is Tim Walz’s state patrol.

ICE agents only do this because they are extremely well-trained and experienced with the situations they are creating

State-sanctioned rape was the inevitable product of the climate of anti-trans contempt promoted by Sulzberger’s nyt and eagerly adopted by the WH

They made an infant stop breathing. With three explosives. In a car full of children. No hell hot enough.

These dumb assholes are going to fumble the easiest bag once again.

Welp…for anyone who needs it, these feel anticlimactic for sure, but some quickly edited perspective from my driveway.

the problem with an untrained secret police squad that shoots people in their cars isn’t that they’re untrained

fellow journalists’ reports from minneapolis are hitting like dispatches from the frontlines of a civil war

Back on my "where we're going you won't need eyes to see" bullshit

Now rewatching for the umpteenth time upon finding out my wife somehow hasn't seen it boxd.it/20d8

One of the reasons I always think watching bad art is as important as watching good art (if not more) is that art is always revealing. The Room was Wiseau being rather embarrassingly revealing even. And as we learn from our own mistakes we can also learn from others' AI removes that authenticity

I am out of words

Starting to wonder how many of these budget cuts are to free up money for more airtime for those godawful "you should self-deport" ads. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/14/h...

Mind-boggling stuff: ICE has detained 4 Oglala men and is apparently demanding the Lakota--a nation of the continent's original inhabitants--“enter into an immigration agreement with ICE." www.twincities.com/2026/01/13/i...

It's horrific but also this is pretty much a regular arrest. That's how violent arrests are. I am glad people can see it and be horrified -- that's what police are out there doing every day, legally. Every 3 seconds basically.

the dumbass idiot in me sees the dumbass idiot in you

the district 8 advisory board is meeting on this tonight

10 short horror stories to get to know me Purity - Ligotti Two Houses - Link The Jaunt - King The Sea Was Wet as Wet... - Wilson The Summer People - Jackson Genius Loci - Smith Each Thing I Show You... - Files/Barringer Skull Pocket - Ballingrud Omphalos - Livia Llewellyn The Shadowy Street - Ray

Avelo Airlines’ decision to drop its ICE contract shows that immigration enforcement isn’t inevitable; when communities organize, target corporate complicity, and refuse to normalize deportations, even powerful agencies can be forced to back down.

Chicago cops steal not just phones from people. They steal money too. They do this REGULARLY. It has been documented over and over again.

bluecheck post on twitter: I’ve been drinking my own urine for 32 weeks and I’ve been amazed at how its impacted my stock portfolio S̲h̲o̲w̲ ̲m̲o̲r̲e̲ blueckeck post on bluesky: say what you will but at least Hitler had a heckin doggo unlike taco donny drumpf who hates pupperinos

so much to cover right now, but a thread i just want to throw out there from my reporting is that the car rental market in minneapolis is reportedly totally screwed up right now because ICE has cleared the inventory. rental companies should have to answer for supplying vehicles used in terror.

i've hoped we get our ass kicked in every war i've been alive for lol

A person observing me online: this guy is like overly focused on heavy metal and hardcore, maybe try expanding your horizons a bit Me just now browing local events: holy shit Itzhak Perlman is coming to town for a gala performance?!

If this was any other set of medical treatments, the entire medical community would be scrambling to study how they could improve their own treatments.

175 billion dollars to affordable housing would genuinely change the arc of this country

(reading my list of things i can control) well that is not very much

It used to be that victims of murders in the U.S. would be smeared by InfoWars and Gateway Pundit as a way to fetishize guns and violence for ad dollars and supplement sales, with the added benefit of cozying up to far-right politicians. Now that work is done by CBS News.

millennials be like im still young bro 39 is young

You shouldn't be all the way like Anton Chigurh but he does have some things to teach us about self-discipline

Plague of Madness

The American Nazi Party.

This is of course very bad. And I feel like not enough of you know that having a disability has been grounds for denying visa processing since the late 19th century due to supposed risk of needing public assistance.

i.c.e. was designed to shoot moms in the face —mike johnson

down with this overton window dragging in the correct direction type move

Being shoved to the ground and threatened with arrest by the police at the Sarah Everard vigil was probably the single most radicalising moment of my life. But everything about her murder showed the terrifying violent and exculpatory potential of the British state.

Bill Watterson is my favorite cartoonist. I adored the relationship btw Calvin and Hobbes as a child. But as I've gotten older, these strips feel even more tender and insightful. My respect for him grew when I learned of his stance against merchandising. Such principles are almost unheard of today.

Blockbuster killing the mom and pop stores is one of the examples of consolidation that is incredibly easy to understand. There was only 1 thing better about Blockbuster than those mom and pop shops. Blockbuster had 100 rental copies of the biggest release. Every other thing about them was worse.

You couldn't write a song that goes "celebrate good times, come on" today. It's too far fetched.

If you haven’t called or written to yell at your reps to get on board impeaching Kristi noem and about all this yet please try today.

Whenever I am bleeding internally after being hit by a car I keep filming on my cell phone while briskly walking away from the scene without waiting for medical attention. What about you guys?

Scoop: Texas has quietly pushed 6,400 truckers with asylum, refugee or DACA status out of work in response to demands from the Trump administration that the state revoke commercial driver's licenses whose expiration dates don't match work permits. Many truckers had no warning.🧵

I imagine it’s “Whiskey Friday” every day over at CBS News lately

They beat up a tenth grader! (Who is a US citizen, but it shouldn’t matter, why the fuck do you beat up a kid.) They stole his phone and tried to resell it!
