@bsky.app should do this.

The newsletter is out! This week, we talked to the genius at Tracklib who makes videos showing how music samples are identified and remixed in songs. He shared a draft version of their video for "One More Time" by Daft Punk. www.howtoreadthisch.art/ample-exampl...

Authoritarians always start by dehumanizing the press. "Animal Farm" may be fiction but Orwell wrote it as a warning.

completely outside of politics, this is so charming

new from me this am for @zeteo.com How We Grew Numb to Trump’s Calls for the Slaughter of Anyone He Wants zeteo.com/p/how-we-gre...

Rev. Bates-Chamberlain: Once ICE came in on their rampage, you literally had mass agents kidnapping people off the streets. It felt like you were in a horror movie, but this was a real occurrence happening in the United States in 2025.

Musk's ego was mortally wounded by Joyce Carol Oates and he's been on a narcissistic supply bender since

Vote for more Yellow line stations in SW Evanston in the Cook County railway survey!

Cook County has an active infill rail station study underway. Put dots on the map where you want a new train station. cook-rail-survey-hntbcorp.hub.arcgis.com

Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

It whips that a bunch of resources and intelligentsia has been pumped into pushing “abundance” a politically specific term that people don’t actually generally understand in a partisan or ideological context any more than they did Latinx, while someone just campaigned on “how bout u afford things”

NEW: @govpritzker.illinois.gov's office says 3 masked ICE agents stopped & questioned an IL Department of Transportation employee working in Park Ridge about his immigration status & whether he had traveled to New York and his awareness of NYC Mayor-elect @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social before leaving.

We've received multiple reports of federal agents in Evanston this morning. Please be aware and keep yourself and your neighbors safe. To report ICE/CBP activity or for other resources, call the ICIRR Family Support Hotline at 855-435-7693 or visit www.icirr.org/fsn

Evanston resident Jennifer Moriarty, one of three residents detained by border patrol agents last Friday, describes being driven around by agents in Evanston and Chicago before being released: "We were never arrested. We were never charged ... it was surreal."

i realize car dealership owners are his demographic but holy shit lol

Wonder why this scene looks so familiar... #WildlifeWednesday 🐦🐕

Trump’s Chicago Invasion continues. Our tax dollars at work: terrorizing our neighbors and attacking our businesses.

If you’re going to the food drop off at ETHS, the traffic right now is gridlocked. You’re best off walking or biking, because you’ll get there faster. It took us over half an hour from Dodge and Dempster.

This was a team effort at every stage and every level. So grateful to have coworkers this dedicated and talented -- we keep Evanston informed 💪💪💪

The crowd here is massive, filling the parking lot between cars, and still growing. We're currently hearing from local clergy members, including Rabbit Andrea London as seen on the truck/stage in this photo

Also in the transit bill passed today was a provision to stop parking mandates for developments in areas served by transit chi.streetsblog.org/2025/10/31/i... #ParkingReform

@chrislhayes.bsky.social You should camp out in Chicago and start broadcasting live from the war zone here. MSNBC could call it “Chicago Under Siege” or “Trump’s War on Americans”. The more people see of this, the more unpopular it’ll be.

Get the hell out of Evanston.

This quote: “They know that “working class” has become a powerful political totem of its own — a discursive sleight of hand used to separate out white voters’ concerns as more legitimate, more materially grounded, more important than other voters’ concerns.”

Yes to all this

ICE violently detain father & son walking to school—teenage boy had to be rushed to hospital. "I was just going to school," kid cries out. "I'm underage!" The 16-year-old star athlete is a U.S. citizen—agents sent him to the hospital with severe injuries to his back & neck. Houston, Texas.

NEW: The Evanston City Council advanced a new 29-story, 419-unit high-rise apartment building in downtown Evanston that will be Evanston's tallest building at 299 feet The project requires a final vote next month (Nov. 10 probs) to issue the special use permit for the new tower

@umich.edu faculty call for an honorary degree for Trump “We have proven that we have no hard moral principles and no hill on which we will die.” www.michigandaily.com/opinion/op-e...

For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

This is an excellent op ed by former mayor Steve Hagerty in support of 605 Davis (the vote is next Monday)

Here are 7 things you can do to help your neighbors RIGHT NOW. All resources, forms and information referenced in this video can be found on the resources page of my website: www.danielbiss.com/resources

“We will not submit to authoritarianism.” Zeteo senior political correspondent @swin24.bsky.social took to the streets of Chicago to report on the ’No Kings’ protest, where thousands opposed Trump’s military deployment and authoritarian administration. See more coverage: zeteo.com/p/no-king-tr...

Pritzker: Throughout history we've learned that tyranny doesn't arrive with dramatic proclamations. Most times it comes quietly wrapped in the language of law and order, with fingers pointed at someone who doesn't look like you, promising safety while demanding that we sacrifice our neighbors.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov rallying support at Grant Park this afternoon for #NoKings in Chicago. The crowd was so huge that this was the only way I could see him—with my phone on 10x zoom and held above my head.

Democracy in action, Illinois. Proud of our state for peacefully showing up and speaking out together in one voice to fight back against Donald Trump’s takeover of our democracy.

What an incredible crowd! I was close to the large orange rectangle that you can see about 10 seconds in. It was an enormous banner meant for aerial view. I was fortunate to be able to attend both Evanston and Chicago rallies, each much larger than the protest during summer.

An astonishingly large crowd! Chicago

No Kings protest today at Fountain Square in Evanston, IL, taken from the Rotary Building by Jean Saunders -- Evanston showed up 👀

If you’re worried about the authoritarianism peaceful protest is the way

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child. She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck. This is not about immigration enforcement. It's about terrorizing Americans.

BREAKING: Masked Border Patrol agents aggressively arrested WGN video producer Debbie Brockman in Lincoln Square Friday morning, supposedly for "obstructing justice." (Video via Josh Thomas on Facebook) Follow @heartlandsignal for more.

Once again, I’m wondering why Democrats aren’t running with a straightforward message of “despotism is un-American and unaffordable” right now and all the way into the midterms.
