I mostly just stay off Twitter altogether but after double checking that the Walter Hudson post was still up I ran across this and just had to share so the Romancelandians who bought hand warmers could hear about the PROFESSIONAL GRADE LOGISTICS.

I believe this. I tell scared sources 2 things: 1 perpetrators’ superpower is they think they are persecuted &that justifies all; 2 superpower of people working to reveal patterns of damage comes primarily from place of altruism, which perpetrators cannot or will not understand thus cannot combat 👊🏻🔥

Lindsey Halligan is no longer a Justice Department employee: www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Two weeks ago this guy announced he was providing legal help to the agent who shot Renee Good. That's how quickly the winds are shifting.

For anyone out there (for no reason in particular...) who may have read, enjoyed, felt something etc from reading 'Star Wars: The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire' - positive reviews on places like goodreads, Amazon etc help ensure that fictional non-fiction remains a viable option in the future

How many ways can you signify death, doom, and vanity? Evert Collier, whose day is today, tried them all. Here with some artistic references in 1675.

“If your state doesn’t help us we will be forced to murder its citizens” is an argument that only works on people who are already subnormal bootlickers.

Seems like a bad sign for the general competency level of federal law enforcement that the FBI director spends his time scouring the feeds of random MAGA influencers and launching investigations based on their posts. www.mediamatters.org/benny-johnso...

The Minnesota v. Noem hearing is beginning before Judge Katherine Menendez. Minnesota, Minneapolis, and St. Paul are seeking a TRO today to stop Operation Metro Surge.

TTRPG friends, Matt, our friend and community member @nurdrocks.bsky.social has been taken by ICE while his back was turned, peacefully protesting. Matt is the founder of Justice Frontline Aid that provides aid & education in the MN community. I've linked the video footage below. Do not stay silent.

Again please stop following Alt NPS.

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

it's really good that Oracle bought TikTok, a business that only loses money, at a time when it took on $56bn+ in debt and $240bn in lease obligations for GPUs to rent to OpenAI, a company that will run out of money. This could all have the funniest ending ever

F.B.I. Agent Who Tried to Investigate ICE Officer in Shooting Resigns The resignation of the agent, Tracee Mergen, was only the latest shock wave to have emerged from the Justice Department’s handling of the shooting of Renee Good. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/23/u...

It is time to take a stand. For my community. For my kids. For Liam. For Minnesota. For our country. #ICEoutschools @neatoday.bsky.social @educationmn.bsky.social

I’ve added the script for Wake Up Dead Man to my site. This is the final shooting script, so it has stuff that was cut and moved around, which I always think is more interesting to see than a conformed cleaned up version. Enjoy! www.rian-johnson.com/screenplays

Immediate punishment for speaking out against the regime.

Trump has left Starmer with no choice – it’s time to get tough

Republicans: "Yeah, and?"

Good god

This is him saying he will use force! How do people not get this?!?!

Hey I wrote this

They have quite an operation going. www.mprnews.org/episode/2026...

For ALL parents/caregivers and educators alike: @brookings.edu new study on AI and learning I asserts an unequivocal NO: "At this point in its trajectory, the risks of utilizing generative AI in children’s education overshadow its benefits." www.brookings.edu/articles/a-n...

Incredibly liminal experience last night in a diner off Freeport, totally alone in a time capsule, surrounded by thick fog outside. 10/10

This short story is one of my very favorite pieces of political imagination!

Our nation has never produced a less economically literate or more sycophantic soybean farmer than Scott Bessent.

Some people were confused by my ICE post. This should clear it up.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Nothing to see here folks, just a sitting president investing in two companies whose merger he claims sole authority to approve or reject. Totally normal! 🙃

"The most consistent predictors of AI use across studies were aversive personality traits (e.g., Machiavellianism, narcissism, psychopathy)."

This scene turns me into a bawling mess every single time. Which, might I add, included being in a room with Hayden, Ewan & Vivien Lyra Blair.

This is quite a post www.planetearthandbeyond.co/p/reality-is...

With arms linked and snow falling, Minneapolis ICE protesters dance as ICE agents retreat back. "Nah nah nah, hey hey hey, goodbye!" WATCH ⬇️

“According to AI companies, creativity isn’t an innate human endeavor, but a problem, an inefficiency waiting for a technological intervention…Such rhetoric conveniently abstracts creativity from a complex, embodied human experience & represents it as a computational problem to be solved.”

uhhh Kathleen Kennedy acknowledging the Hunt for Ben Solo?? I will become delusional now. deadline.com/2026/01/kath...

Why does meta have the absolute worst user interface on all of its apps? The constant refreshing and losing posts? So maddening

Bring in more immigrants! Slightly increasing the birth rate at great expense so we can have a tiny number of additional workers 20 years down the line is not a serious strategy.

What does his union say?

The Gofundme for this guy will be huge.

People WANT to come here and pay our government taxes! They WANT to revitalize declining towns! Some of them even want to have kids! Taking them in would alleviate misery and suffering and probably lower the temperature on many global conflicts!

Truly.

Secretary Kristi Noem must resign.

Surveillance footage of the arson suspect pouring what appears to be gasoline or other fuel at Beth Israel Congregation in Jackson, MS on Saturday morning. This part of the temple was destroyed; it’s almost exactly the same area that was bombed by the KKK in 1967.

Two Torahs were destroyed and five were damaged in the flames that erupted during Shabbat. One Torah that survived the Holocaust was in a glass case and was undamaged in the fire. The synagogue’s Tree of Life was burned too.
