years and years of avoiding plain language and the active voice do make the choice to use it more impactful, I suppose

ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.

"Just stay cool and don't make trouble until the midterms" is not going to cut it as an opposition response to a murderous regime whose masked thugs are killing people in the streets and then attempting to round up witnesses and destroy evidence.

absolutely incredible 😘👌

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Good morning. Happy January 83rd to my internet friends

Exploding tree risk!!!!

“See yinz soon.”

my home neighborhood is gonna EXPLODE when it happens; zero chance I sleep through it but I also literally have a recurring dream that I'm in NYC (which is what I hope for every time I land there for a weekend) and it's better than the Magical Flying Dreams of my childhood

keving what is this @kevinlferguson.bsky.social

That is, ah, how capitalism works, my bro.

Zohran CLAIMS to be a socialist, and yet he keeps doing things that I can only categorise as 'king shit'. INTERESTING.

cannot stop laughing at this Post headline from yesterday (we met some of these people this weekend and they all seem lovely for whatever that's worth)

It was inevitable.

lol kind of really want one of these

“As regards the Nobel Peace Prize, I have on several occasions clearly explained to Trump what is well known, namely that it is an independent Nobel Committee, and not the Norwegian government, that awards the prize,” Mr. Store said.

what is the One Other Thing tho

:: tfw yr not sure what u want the meat temperature to be on yr midnight hotel cheetos ::

hey Mom can you come pick me up. yeah everyone on the niche microblogging website is arguing about who has the correct emotional posture to the unknowable future again

That drunk lady whose voicemail Alamo Drafthouse used to play in ads to show they weren't kidding about how they dealt with patrons who disrupted the film is having the last laugh now, isn't she.

lol they're heading to Maine ??? MAINE.

This never happened and he shot her in the face. Look I know most people don't read or watch CBS News to begin with as is evidenced by the ratings, but I don't care what happens going forward when this is over, CBS is done forever. We should've put them down for Big Bang Theory but let's do it now

the world may be ending but that's no reason not to have a nice breakfast

okay but I wanna know what THEY think it means www.reddit.com/r/AskHistori...

If there’s a better obituary for an evil cartoonist than an A.I. generated version of his character that fucks up the defining detail of its design, I can’t think of it. No notes. 👨🏻‍🍳 💋

If you own reproductive organs that the GOP is currently trying to commander as forced-birth factories, then I can’t blame you for being not-chill about birth rate discussions. pretty sure people will be more open to discussion when MAGAs stop trying to force them into reproductive servitude.

A few months ago, ICE hired me I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!" My latest for Slate

cute and zoomy puzzle

RIP Alamo Drafthouse. You just killed the entire point of you. drafthouse.com/news/our-shi...

If calling a state secret police agent a murderer for committing murder will lead to more murder by the state secret police, it sure seems like the problem is with the secret police

we have this Center for Creative Reuse that's an arts & crafts thrift store & I have a box of stuff I keep meaning to drop off but when I look at their website I get way too excited about what they have there & like... need them to come take my stuff bc me GOING there would be so counterproductive

as someone who can read Greek at a basic level (specifically: Duolingo level 17 lol), today's puzzle is kind of hilariously complicated and does not, technically, "work" (if I'm going to be a pedantic dick about it) but was very fun specifically for me...?

this is a good daily card to pull today. see you in those streets in a few hours Pittsburgh #ICEOUT

😬

what Minneapolis-based band song do YOU have on a loop rn open.spotify.com/track/2ZnaXk...

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you." The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?" "Learned what?" she asks Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

reader I almost dropped my coffee

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

that "it's fine dude, I’m not mad at you" just fucking breaks my heart

i weirdly forgot The PITT is back (!!!!!) and then moronically decided to fire it up while eating dinner, a mistake I also made early last season
