Door knocking in a full-on 13th District snow globe. ❄️💖✌🏽 Ps did you know @katmabu.bsky.social can knit? She made me this hat! 🥰 #Caturday

Let us hear the infamous story about the necessity of a “land swap” again.. These Ukrainians will be demoralized, tortured and men will be forced to fight on Russia’s behalf. Don’t be naive or romantic about it. EU, the people you leave with Putin, will be forced to kill your citizens. Wake up.

Here are the law enforcement agencies who searched Flock Safety's ALPR database related to this year's No Kings protests. www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

Hey if you like something a journalist did PLEASE link to the work and don't just screenshot. I know the image catches the eye but we would really like people to read our work where we publish it so we can, y'know, eat.

Just to understand the concept of a trillion. 1 million minutes ago it was October 21, 2023. A billion minutes ago it was 114 CE. A trillion minutes ago it was 1,900,114 BCE

TRUMP: If you’re trafficking drugs to the U.S. via the Caribbean I will kill you. ALSO TRUMP: If you’re doing time because you helped traffic 400 tons of cocaine to the U.S. via Honduras you get a “Full and Complete Pardon.” www.justice.gov/archives/opa...

The FBI spent a million dollars redacting powerful men's names from the Epstein files. The victims? Twenty-eight names in one document alone unredacted, exposed, hunted down by reporters in front of their children. Privacy, it seems, is reserved for those who can afford to return the favor.

“What is remigration, which the Department of Homeland Security is calling for?” It’s this:

I had to get a recovery job too. Grateful for the opportunity and the learning!

Ever wondered how Trump was able to get away with sexually abusing children❓ Just look at how he is the only President in history who has been able to verbally abuse women (particularly journalists) over and over again in front of the 🌍 , and the people around him haven’t stopped him. That’s how.

If you have to shop today, do it at small shops, makers, & artisans like me Scarletnymph.com I make super extra art supplies & fancy things

@profanity.accountant Data should be interesting.

Hors de combat personnel may not be intentionally targeted. Examples include persons parachuting from their disabled aircraft, shipwreck survivors, as well as the sick, wounded, detained, or otherwise disabled.

For those who don't know what hors de combat means: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hors_de... In the laws of war, combatants are considered to be hors de combat (French: [ɔʁ də kɔ̃ba]; lit. 'out of combat'), and thus protected persons, when they are unable to participate in fighting.

Utter bullshit. This is not how it works. They meet the legal definition for being hors de combat in both international and non international armed conflict. Never mind the fact that they aren’t even legally combatants regardless of whatever half baked executive order says.

To overcome the expense and fragility of connections (not AI slop), folks have downloaded Wikipedia and other sources to external media for off-line use. One project, "Internet-in-a-Box", is used in rural locations in Latin America, South Asia and Africa. www.internetsociety.org/wp-content/u...

How comfy is this??

It's not your fault you struggle to validate yourself. You're doing what you saw modeled & what the culture models every day: reflexive invalidation. Understanding validation not as a touchy feely luxury, but rather a nonnegotiable trauma recovery tool, takes time & practice.

In realistic trauma recovery it matters we meet our reflexive avoidance w/ compassion & validation, even as we strategize how to do the thing anyway. Calling ourselves "stupid" or "weak" for instinctively wanting to avoid a thing will only shut us down & deepen our reluctance.

Given the bullshit that’s about to go down with insurance here in the US, thank you ProPublica for the info.

Hate to be posting this on a holiday, but there's been renewed interest in the CIA-backed Zero Units in Afghanistan. Here's a good summary of @propublica.org's 2022 reporting on the units and just some of the civilian casualties they were responsible for:

Thankful for family and friends. Especially thankful for our free press, without which we are truly screwed. “The media” isn’t perfect but it is crucial, and in Chicago this fall, it’s been essential. Thank you to everyone who puts on their socks every morning and asks important questions.

BREAKING: Sarah Beckstrom, one of the National Guard members who was shot near White House, has died, Trump says.

1/2 From Jen Griffin (She's Fox News. But is an actual journalist.) Per a senior U.S. official: "The alleged Afghan shooter Rahmanullah Lakanwal began working with the CIA around 2011 (yes he may have been 15" Griffin states that it would have been v. hard to know his true age. (But 15?)

1 of the National Guard members shot near White House identified as Andrew Wolfe.

Local PD and Sheriffs in Mobile, AL abducting a man out of the waiting room of a car dealerships mechanic shop on behalf of ICE/DHS. During the kidnapping, he is injected with some unknown sedative. WTF?

Mobile Fortify, ICE's face recognition app, threatens the rights of both migrants and U.S. citizens. DHS should shut it down, privacy and civil liberties organizations write. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

Recovery Cards are index cards you carry around w/ you, on which you write quotes, reminders, & tools that you're trying to program into your nervous system in trauma recovery. They may sound like a recovery tool "too simple" to work-- until you start using them every day.

ANYONE can be assassinated from behind on basically any American street. Or any international street. It's a shame this happened. It's also a teachable moment for everyone that abhors politics and believes not just in the NG, but that they shouldn't even be there.

Now is time for calm. Absolutely nobody condones an ambush on NG troops. But at this point, deescalation calls for the (at least temporary) removal of NG and other "camouflage agencies" from the streets of ALL US cities. Tempers are too high. More to follow.

🚨🚨🚨 1/2

It’s getting real for Home Depot. The flash mob is only the warm up, the nationwide boycott hits on November 27th. Chant: “Tax the rich tax, the motherf*cking rich.”

By the way, Sahan Journal is a nonprofit newsroom dedicated to reporting for immigrants and communities of color in Minnesota. All of their reporting that I've seen this year is unusually excellent. Follow: @sahanjournal.bsky.social

I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.

🧪 This is what whooping cough looks & sounds like. A baby tragically died of whooping cough today. Dr. Ralph Abraham is the CDC’s new deputy director. He: 1. Halted Louisiana's mass vaccination campaign 2. Promoted ivermectin 3. Delayed public warnings about a deadly whooping cough outbreak

I’ve heard many stories of how ICE is not following the law or honoring due process. I'm at the Tacoma ICE facility to come see for myself and hold ICE accountable. From my visit, it was abundantly clear that ICE is lying.

A round of applause for the French is in order! 👏👏👏

Like the blue sky ratio on this.😁 Would buy coffee here.
