Making ice cream out on the deck. Probably should've used the big KitchenAid cause it churns slower but this one is working.

Let’s talk about how we all are thinking about not paying taxes this year.

Minneapolis has that dawg in em

Over 100 priests have been arrested in Minneapolis for protesting ICE. They gathered to demand airlines to cease contracting deportation flights to DHS.

At the airport.

Thesis: ICE is un-American and the Minneapolis protestors are real Americans. Antithesis: Ackshually ICE is operating in a long American tradition of racist terror. Synthesis: Minneapolis is now the epicenter of a clash between two distinct but historically grounded American political traditions.

Ignore this post — it’s for me to refer to intermittently today as I doomscroll the news

“For the last quarter of a century my wardrobe has consisted of Nazi wardrobe. People also tell me I look good dressed like a Nazi.”

Probably not but at some point we need to recognize that his ignorance has hardened into a venality fueled by testosterone, HGH, and who knows what else he’s ingested.

Waking up in the middle of the night to read threads from gay men saying, essentially, BEWARE! Don’t enjoy Heated Rivalry too much without understanding it is a Trojan Horse of unrealistically attractive gay men in a dire fuck buddy situation perpetuated by straight media for profit only

Democrats needing to message on affordability as the country endures a brutal authoritarian takeover is tragic. Take it from someone who lives in occupied Minneapolis. Our problems go deeper than prices.

The reality is that 2024 was a fundamental test of the moral character of the nation and we failed spectacularly. We’re living with the consequences now. Maybe we improve. I hope so.

Also, here’s a sweet grey fox from 2021

Too young to not go to shows Too old to stand for the whole show

SIL in St. Paul reports that a Spanish speaking AA meeting got raided.

Barely a ripple on a day of tsunami level news.

It’s hard to accurately describe what is happening in Minneapolis without sounding crazy. Unmarked rental vans all over the city, with people in military gear and no id jumping out of them to take captive anyone who looks nonwhite or who makes political speech they disagree with.

Now that the White House is using AI to edit photos of their political opponents to create fascist propaganda I’m wondering if anyone could have seen this use of AI coming. Okay I’m hearing lots of people did and they were forced to watch corporations smother the masses with the technology anyways

Kash Patel should be arrested. He’s 100% selling state secrets.

Just woke up from a nap nightmare can you tell

It’s called EUGENICS

I know people keep saying this but it’s hard to communicate the depth of active resistance here. Like, I’m on random cafes and people are checking in for observation shifts. Signs everywhere. Folks in visibility vests on the corners. It’s wild. Absolutely wild.

Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

I fear my tipping point into madness is "Thus is un-American" posts in response to ICE terrorizing immigrants. I beg you to open Wikipedia (I would say a book but let's start small) and read up on The Trail of Tears, Fugitive Slave Catchers, Japanese internment, Indian Boarding schools & Jim Crow

Oh this was a read 😩😭

Unclear to me if this fucking five year old kid getting kidnapped is breaking through outside of the Twin Cities and I don’t want to speak for anyone else but this has really steeled my resolve. This shit cannot be allowed to stand.

I would rather die, murdered by my own government in a high-viz vest, than live in a country where this shit is normalized.

I remember that many people warned about the dangers of putting the most ethically deranged person on earth in the most powerful governing position in the world and to do so without any meaningful legal constraints or realistic accountability mechanisms -- and they were dismissed as "hysterical."

There are more of us than them. I spent an evening tonight with a bunch folks motivated to opposing this mess. Find an event near you and go. You will still be angry but you will not be alone.

only thing blue line i recognize 🫡

based jack white

the american track record of actually punishing people like this is not great

It’s kind of wild that not only should the government NOT be doing evil shit, they should actually be doing GOOD things for us because we pay them lots of money in something called taxes

The median position edged closer to "burn every ICE facility to the ground" tonight.

Gotdamit

Hanging with my dopamine dealer

No money for this government.
