#DungeonsAndDragons fun last night at the library! Our campaign is in the 2 or 3 part finale stage which is very exciting! It'll be the first campaign I'll finish (I did miss a lot of the middle but shhhhhh)! #LibraryFun #LibraryLife #LibrariesRock #PublicLibrary

Dear Businesses large and small: if you start using GenAI to post stupid images just because everyone else is doing it I'm going to stop supporting your business.

As a former film student I'm so proud of what this guy did and for indie film to knock the Disney empire back in it's heels for a weekend.

as foretold by the legend, a chainmail dice has been forged into existence! is it a jelly cube? a d6 die? yes, it's both! functional dice and a fidget toy on one. #dice #bsnm www.etsy.com/listing/4449...

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people. But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

Goal for next year

Perfect headline from Mother Jones: "They Want to Tell You a Kid With a Spider-Man Backpack Is Evil" At least 3,800 kids, including 20 infants, have been detained since President Klansman returned to office. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

We are OUTRAGED and deeply alarmed by the arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort by federal agents, and by the government’s escalating effort to criminalize and threaten press freedom under the guise of law enforcement. The First Amendment is not optional and journalism is not a crime.

It is disingenuous for media outlets to continue reporting that RFK Jr., Bhattacharya, Makary and Prasad are working to “restore trust” in public health. The data clearly show that after one year of being in power, trust in public health is plummeting, not increasing.

📢 Join the nationwide shutdown this Friday, January 30th.  Do your part and help us SHUT IT DOWN for just one day this Friday to say enough is enough & that we want ICE OUT OF EVERYWHERE‼️ Go to nationalshutdown.us to learn more and vote no to ICE funding.

If these kids have the courage to fight from within a concentration camp, then we better fucking have the courage to fight from our positions of relative freedom.

Imagine how angry we will all be when we finally see what is going on inside the concentration camps

📚 Free webinar! ALA Reference Roundup: February 11, 2026 at 3:00 PM Eastern Librarians Jennifer Goodland and Karina Todechine will speak on how the pandemic impacted rural and tribal communities, and revealed critical service shortages with those who cannot access Internet.

They’re gonna use him as a scapegoat, claim bad apple at the helm, and keep doing this with a point person who’s in front of the camera less. Don’t let them get away with anything less than a full dismantling of ICE and DHS.

Bovino was doing exactly what Stephen Miller told him to. This is wildly insufficient.

If you're a nail polish person, the MN-based small polish maker Atomic Polish is selling Ice Out, and 100% of the proceeds of it are going to the Immigrant Rapid Response Fund

We are going to win, but our boots stay on their necks until there is true justice—and not a moment sooner.

I don’t think we should be using words like “innocent” or “US citizen” or “bystander” or things like that because — what if someone was an undocumented immigrant with a criminal record? Would they deserve this? No one deserves to be executed on the street in cold blood.

There's been a lot of discussion about the echoes of the civil rights movement in the protests today, with people obviously drawing comparisons between the strategies, tactics and coalitions that were vital then and are still vital now. But this post has me thinking about a different echo ...

Everything they learned in Minnesota they’re applying in Maine from day one. They started off doing fast-moving snatch and grabs on the street, recording and using facial id on observers, and threatening observers directly. They’ll do it all where you live too.

Get organized and STAY ORGANIZED. #abolishice

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Liam himself is five goddamned years old and should be at home with an adult he trusts right now no matter who his parents are. It would not matter if they were literal criminal masterminds, Liam Ramos is a baby and babies do not belong in prison.

The GOP and Fox News has created monsters out of ordinary people.

I do think that a possibly underrated dynamic in The Horrors is that the Right as it has reconstituted itself under Trump legitimately can’t understand sincere moral or physical courage

Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com

ICE has killed 9 people so far in the first 25 days of 2026. Alex Pretti Renee Good Keith Porter Heber Sanchaz Domínguez Victor Manuel Diaz Parady La Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres Geraldo Lunas Campos They all deserve remembrance and justice.

I thought you might like to see this photo I took recently of my pal Muscovy duck.

This little chickadee had likely just woken up from its nocturnal hibernation. It was -39C this when I took this. Chickadees can drop their core temperature up to 10C and go into torpor at night to conserve energy in extreme weather. #birds 🌿

"This isn't who we are!" - false, ignores history, keeps harmful systems in place "This isn't who we should be!" - true, imagines a better future, includes everyone.

Love this!

actually love that markiplier is doing blood drives across the states as a part of his promotion for his film due to the shortage of blood donations right now..

This is a white supremacist paramilitary operation. Their goal—their stated goal!—is to force America to submit to the President's racist domineering vision for the country. The sooner everybody starts confronting it on the terms that they themselves have stated, the better.

Is it giving Captain America: The Winter Soldier's Project Insight? I feel like it's giving CA:TWS Project Insight.... marvelcinematicuniverse.fandom.com/wiki/Project...

Today we went to the great local yarn store/coffeehouse (The Sow's Ear, in Verona). Waiting to ask what needles would be best for this pattern I heard the elderly woman in front of me ask for a yarn suggestion for the "Fuck ICE" hat. Same pattern! We fistbumped & wished each other a hearty Fuck ICE.

As we grieve for Alex Pretti and Renee Good in MN, please do not forget Victor Manuel Diaz, who died in ICE custody after being taken from here. And all others who have died in their custody.

@pearlmania500.bsky.social speaking truth.

MAKE YOUR BAD DAY YOUR SHITTY REP'S PROBLEM!!!!!

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment "I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to assess the victim. At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

Who wants to tell Pete Alex Pretti did all 3 and they killed him anyway?

Absolutely reprehensible that AG Bondi is offering ICE stand down in exchange for access to voting rolls. Outrageous and disgusting. It shows ICE is in Minneapolis is not for law enforcement purposes. Instead it’s a way to stir up shit in blue states and extort them.

so don't get too comfortable. #art
