🚨 Please help My child is critically injured and fighting for his life after Israeli drone attacks in Gaza. He urgently needs medical care outside Gaza to survive. A donation or even a share can save him. Please don’t look away — donate or share this appeal. chuffed.org/project/168482

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

The year is 2045. Nurse is the only job left. It has been hastily retconned to a male coded job and every nurse now wears tactical combat gear and has a gun.

my position is that intelligence is decomposable into families of capabilities, a few of which LLMs have but humans do not and many of which humans have but LLMs do not.

Yes, AND anyone with a lick of sense knows that if you have a mole you don't brag about it on social media

this is why i say it's a form of hegemonic suicide. america had the entire postwar consensus built around it and decided liberal internationalism was woke

Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.** He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

THEY ARE BUYING UP WAREHOUSES TO HOLD HUMAN BEINGS IN DETENTION INDEFINITELY. I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

NEW: The Trump admin publicized the arrest of an "antifa domestic terrorist," implying he was charged with threatening federal agents. But the criminal complaint suggests Kyle Wagner was charged with Instagram beefing with controversial rightwing agitator Jayden Scott. zeteo.com/p/trump-admi...

The immediate pain and fear is real, but everyone is also sick with worry about the bills. If and when we get through this, physically, what wounds will remain? How will we pay for this? What will our lives look like in 6 months or 6 years? Why can't someone just step in and FIX THIS? They know how!

The helpers are helping. They are doing so much. It gets some people through the situation. It offers five beautiful minutes of respite for others, until the pain returns. Some people don't make it. They just...don't. Some cry. Others just fade. What's most needed is systemic change. But. Well.

One TV is showing a talking head lying about the economy; the other TV shows sports highlights. Everyone in the room is having their own private Worst Day and the outside world feels either confusingly distant or like it's actively trying to exacerbate the pain around you.

Living in Minnesota right now feels like being in the emergency room. Literally everyone is suffering in different ways, even if it's "just" a badly twisted ankle rather than a kidney stone or a full-on heart attack. The staff are working as hard as they can but energy and resources are dwindling.

I do think things will get a lot worse before they get better, but I also think we're gonna win because the dude who used to make videos about how to build a cabin out of wood pallets is now making videos about how to make a reinforced riot shield and improvised spike strips from a garden hose

Even if you want to pretend our founding documents and institutions were built with no ill intentions we can’t move forward unless we reckon with the fact that they produced an imperialist hegemon that keeps the world under its boot and spreads facism genocide inequality and oppression

People on Reddit are getting Amazon to refund their Ring products because of their partnership with Flock and that creepy Super Bowl ad www.reddit.com/r/FlockSurve...

In Gaza, hunger doesn’t knock — it lives with us. Children sleep with empty stomachs, and hunger echoes louder than the bombs. We need food and safety… and we need the world to care. Please don’t ignore our pain 💔🙏🏻 gofund.me/d14cbe76

always so funny to me when people are like “how am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. “why did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay

"that couldn't happen, the Constitution specifically says they can't do that" WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN

This is gender.

sea shanty is easily one of the top five genres

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

It's not just that there's no safety net now, it's that there's BEEN no meaningful safety net for communities for a long time. Things are already held together with spit and prayer, and all it takes is a strong gust of wind to topple over what's left.

But it is hard not to feel like we're getting to a point systemically where all the supportive infrastructure around us now crumbles the moment there is an even slight hiccup--a glitch in the insurance marketplace, a spell of cold and some snow.

It is not our moral responsibility to coddle the delusional fears and bigotries of white supremacists. It is not our moral responsibility to change reality for them so they can hold onto those fears and bigotries. It is our moral responsibility to make their fears and bigotries THEIR problem.

When white supremacist bigots throw a tantrum because they've been forced to confront reality, there are always enablers who will say that the expression of reality is a controversy, or divisive. The implication is that we should change reality to suit the whims of the bigots. Absolutely not.

The fact that Bad Bunny's halftime show made white bigots angry and feel excluded is A GOOD THING. It's one of the best things about it. It's not a problem to solve. It's a solution to pursue. Bigots *should* feel excluded. We should find *more* ways to celebrate the reality of USian diversity.

We'll be told "there are millions of people who are uncomfortable with that, and we have to learn to live with them." No, actually. We already are living with each other, including them. They're uncomfortable with some of us. THEY have to learn to live with US. If they won't, that is their problem.

The reality is America is a huge multicultural multilingual country, not a white ethnostate, and venomous white supremacist MAGA crybabies lose it whenever that reality becomes unignorable. We should always seek to increase, not decrease, their discomfort. www.the-reframe.com/hating-the-g...

BRENTWOOD, TN — “No justice, no Peace! ICE off our streets!” Brentwood High school students walk out to protest ICE… From the Tennessean : www.instagram.com/reel/DUYPKwH...

The US is running a dangerous experiment: Can a country contain measles while its government questions the cure? As outbreaks swell and federal support evaporates, the historic logic of vaccination, that fear prompts action, is collapsing, leaving Americans vulnerable to a preventable return.

Yeah I’m looking for my dog (girlfriend who has a restraining order against me and she has a dog) and here’s the picture of the dog (she walks this dog and I can use it to figure out her schedule) thanks for sending all footage my way

This kind of smart, walkable, mixed-use urbanism is illegal to build in most American cities.

Just a few weeks ago, the administration cancelled all remaining department of energy grid resilience projects in Puerto Rico. All of them. www.latitudemedia.com/news/the-end...

oh good they’ve revolutionized stalking again.

They're called Ring cameras because an evil ghost lives in there

The only Big Game I care about is Fallout New Vegas.

The parentification of elder daughters is a prevalent form of abuse that people don't talk about enough.

I’m here in Minneapolis and in a few groups responding to the attacks - observing, recording, warning but also getting groceries to people in hiding. The post below doesn’t ring true to me at all. The volunteers are amazing (most do more than I do), and NOBODY is worried about protestor behavior.

Bri has a gofundme to help with essentials for other single moms gofund.me/94496b300

In Minneapolis, for every story detailing the fallout of the federal crackdown, there are as many stories of people like Bri, a mom donating breastmilk for babies whose mothers are detained by ICE. Bri's story: 19thnews.org/2026/02/minn...

so much of our present misery is just a giant, prolonged backlash to integration
