Imagine if we could have trains powered by solar farms. But no, the focus has to be on cars.

Maybe there’s hope for humanity yet.

Hey, so ICE is still kidnapping and disappearing people in the United States. Just because they got quieter about it doesn't make it okay. Abolish ICE. Chinga la Migra.

So why are there so many substacks again?

The library is literally FOR hanging out.

MN50501 volunteer observers counted 18 people, including three women, being loaded at MSP on today's ICE flight. Join us at the airport authority meeting on Monday at 1:00 PM to demand accountability from Delta Air Lines. If Delta didn't operate this flight, why are we demanding accountability? 👇🧵

The LAPD is working with ICE & lying about it. After ICE throws our neighbors into cages in the B18 concentration camp in the Metro Detention Center, LAPD brutalizes protestors at the gate, but bc they’re just “guarding” the camp, they don’t report it Excellent reporting by @ericanders.bsky.social

Better: more trains.

“… the acting director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has secretly blocked publication of a report that concludes COVID-19 vaccines are a significant boost to public health…the report found that COVID vaccines drastically minimize risk of hospitalization after catching the virus.”

Good.

if you come for the WayBackMachine you will have to come through me

I wear a helmet. I recommend other people wear helmets. But helmets are not a solution for unsafe infrastructure. That's why so many of us get mad at finger wagging comments about helmets. It hides the real risks to cyclists. Cycling at low speeds is very safe! It's the cars that make it dangerous.

Sorry, if you’re paying attention, and you still expect Democrats to save you, what is going on for you? They have not done anything functional to this point to warrant any belief they will save us or meet the bare minimum of demands. Hold fascists and collaborators accountable.

"Orbán’s Hungary has been the model for the global fascist assault on democracy. Maybe it can also serve as a model for its defeat." Important piece from Jason Stanley for Zeteo on the big story of the day:

White people should make a connection about the fact that the most evil people in the world are huge white supremacists. It means you all have a task wherever you are. Divest from white supremacy & don't participate in it. Do the hard work of changing your personal choices that come from bias.

This is like the whole thing. Minneapolis stands ready to build a health and wellness center for cops that they are DARING to call a community center. Build that shit for the teachers and see how they do!

Something like this will have to happen in this country once Trumpism is defeated. In the absence of accountability, the world will rightly assume that it will happen again.

BREAKING: Hungary just saw a stunning political shakeup. Opposition leader Péter Magyar says Prime Minister Viktor Orbán personally called to congratulate him on his victory, marking the imminent end to Orbán’s long grip on power.

This means she’s a fascist collaborator. She’s not qualified to be Governor.

Welp, LAPD is now using the one loophole that prevents press from passing police lines during a dispersal: making an area an emergency operations area. Gonna loop around to see but I’m sure the caution tape will be up outside the MDC. This is how LAPD coordinates to protect DHS and ICE

🐷 AND THESE LITTLE PIGGIES went “Whee whee whee whee” all the way home in their two Air Force VIP transports and the infamous Fvckjet 👀

We were explaining the Strait of Hormuz news to our 8 yo Her dad: We won't be able to get oil 8 yo: Oh! We can just use the scooter 8 yo: Why don't we get rid of gas cars, get more electric cars & make them cheaper? Her dad: That's a great idea 8 yo: Someone needs to tell this to the president

As I type this, a friend/neighbor is cleaning our kitchen for us, which she, herself, offered to do on her own just because she could see everything we have been juggling & whatnot & it was a way she could make time to support us. This is what community looks like. We can live & work together.

That’s one take away. Another is that as humans, we have a bias towards believing that other people know and believe the same things we do. That they have similar experiences and opinions. Bias goes all ways.

We have to raise our political expectations.

So basically what you’re telling me is that pedestrian and bicyclist safety folks have terrible communications people. If you could save lives by giving up some lane space, would you do it? That’s the framing.

Can we 25th Amendment the entire government and start over?

It's 6:30 p.m. in Minnesota on a Saturday. Hope you've had a decent day. Have you had enough to eat? Got plans for more food in a bit? Eat! Also take meds if you need to. Hydrate, moisturize, take care of yourself. Have some fun. 💜 (Fuck ICE.)

Tell that to the people inside them.

Wait until I tell you about this thing called the bicycle.

Honestly its just time to end the democratic party.

A chronic illness chat group I'm in is organizing around the clock peer hospital support, researching surgeons, and figuring out how to transfer a very sick member out of state to get the care they are being refused locally. You NEED disabled people in your movements. We just DO this stuff.

Sploosh!

They were never upholding their oath to serve and protect in the first place.

Functionally, what has she done to fight fascism? That is the bar.

ICE has been really good at catching wind of these unannounced visits in other cities recently and flying all the captured migrants out beforehand. But not today. Well done catching them, Congresswoman. We should expect that all of the detention centers are this bad when they aren’t tipped off.

Next week, a little-known law that allows the government to sidestep the Constitution and spy on US citizens is set to expire. Congress should let FISA’s Section 702 die, but we fear some Democrats could join Republicans in reauthorizing this civil liberties disaster.

Jokes on you @paramountplus.com Star Trek is the only reason most of us have a subscription. Now we own most of our beloved shows and movies on physical media so I guess there's no reason to continue our subscription and honestly, we don't support you anyway. 🖕🖕🖕 screenrant.com/star-trek-st...

Using your debt, your search history, and your private data to decide how much you’re worth? Hell no. This is what happens when technology is built to serve profit instead of people. This is why every worker needs a union.

Because white people are brainwashed into thinking the police keep them safe, and they are working with ice. The Democrats support the police and so do the media and the Republicans. It’s called copaganda.

cop I'm cop watching: shouldn't you be bothering ICE? me: nah, I'm good right here. Are they being detained or free to go?

The MN Pollution Control Agency, who feeds the county their pro-incinerator talking points, all but admitted this week that they don't consider public health in their determination that incinerators are a preferred method. They really don't care.

Homer Simpson is secretly a genius.
