You have to block them immediately. The full nuclear. They are only here to make folks angry, and that can’t happen if we lock them out.

This is the best public health info I've ever seen about covid - specific recommendations, charts, citations. Excpetional.

An antifascist popular front and transphobia are incompatible. A big tent that includes transphobes isn't a big tent, it's a tent with a hole in the roof.

Newsom still a moral vacuum

the only reason "abolish ICE" is seen as radical is that no one will say it but the far left. if every normie Democrat started saying it tomorrow it would move the overton window so far you'd have to squint to find it. my kingdom for leaders who understand they can shape public opinion.

Holy hell. The description of death row in apartheid South Africa was one of the most harrowing things I've ever read. Also. This guy wasn't fucking around.

Looks like the feds might be using the green zinc chloride gas canisters again. It's toxic and absorbs through the skin; the US DoD stopped using it decades ago due to the effects. Effectively an aerosolized heavy metal (zinc), with all the long term implications heavy metals have.

My unscientific research (reviewing 700 resumes) tells me that theater kids become game producers at a staggeringly high rate.

ive seen more articles this week about how the phrase “abolish ice” could hurt dems in the midterms than ive seen articles about how paramilitary death squads terrorizing cities will hurt republicans in the midterms

This is not the language of the government of a free country.

Not a national security reporter. Not a Pentagon reporter. Not covering, say, a crime that the Govt wants to investigate. Just someone who talked to Fed employees and kept them anonymous.

From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003 when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

I took the survey his people sent out last week trying to find out whether genocide denialism was working out for him. I guess I don’t trust his change of heart!

ICE just reported its fourth in-custody death of 2026. It’s only January 10.

Migra, escucha, estamos el la lucha is the best protest earworm I’ve heard in a while

Presence in the US without documentation is a civil offense, not a crime. There is no reason for ICE to have weapons whatsoever (or exist, really). It would be like a meter maid or a debt collector drawing a weapon on you. The militarization of civil law enforcement is and has always been wrong.

Fela Kuti's Zombie turns 50 in 2026. It's one of the best anti-authoritarian anthems ever and sadly has always been relevant, even moreso now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qj5x...

The tax is an alternative to encouraging unhoused people to take refuge in the 40k empty units in SF, like in Berlin in the 90s. I’m happy with either solution 🤷🏻

It is your solemn duty as an American and as a person to do everything you can to oppose this war

That’s unfair; it also convinces people to kill themselves.

Decent film year! Gilda, The Vourdalak, and Deathtrap (which I think Wake Up Dead Man refs) are so worth watching if you haven’t seen them. Special 🖕🏻to Strange Days, which I hated.

Another good practice for the New Year would be for all the non-fascists in America who want to opine about politics to really begin believing that urban America is Real America & that its denizens are The Authentic People. Get some self-respect & drop the volkish nationalist view that they're not

There’s a lot of things I wish for 2026, but most immediately and selfishly I just hope no one close to me dies.

This article goes so hard, the kind of treatment PG&E deserves.

Remember: When Tylenol was poisoned *by an outsider* and killed people, the company recalled all their products & redesigned them. When Intel’s Pentium had a bug so obscure it affected 1 in _9 billion_ long division calculations, they recalled their chips. ChatGPT was made deadly *by its team*.

If this is what it takes to get thiel to move out of California I guess we could manage it.

Reminder that AB715 was Scott Weiner's handiwork! Let's not send him to Congress, even if it means he's here in SF being annoying af more

I used a new recipe for cinnamon roll dough and it was so perfect I was too busy stuffing my face to take a picture.

Grateful the power didn’t go out til after I finished cooking our big Christmas dinner.

Now you can read it in the fifth floor reading room at SFPL main library!

Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing since the dawn of time.

I can’t tell you how often people say “oh you live in SF? I hear it’s so dangerous!” 🤷🏻🤷🏻

No such thing as a happy transphobe

reminder:

One aspect that makes it strain credulity that the people in his orbit did not know what he was doing to those girls is that it seems that he thought about little else.

"Has feminism failed women brought to you by bank of america" is my MKULTRA sleeper agent activation phrase

‘Tis the season.

UPDATE: Faith leaders were arrested by federal police outside San Francisco's immigration courthouse. They had chained themselves to the building, blocking the entrance to shut it down to protest immigrant arrests. It worked: By 11 a.m., the court was closed for the day.

A 1.5 mile trip on Muni is $2.85 The people who think robotaxis are the future are the same people who think our economy is going great right now

Congrats to Crystal on the Tomb Raider Anniversary remake announcement

The award for "The Saddest Project We Never Saw Released" goes to... BLACK PANTHER By Cliffhanger Games Which was cancelled alongside the shuttering of their studio. You all deserved better.

"The Rorschach blots are so obtuse that you can't figure out what we want from you and so then you start giving us actually useful diagnostic information." And I find a lot of the same value in Tarot—it's sufficiently obtuse that I can't make it tell me what I want to hear & so I actually listen

I think only AI could come up with a grouping which proposes that if you enjoyed Biutiful you’d also like Saltburn.

SFUSD's unrepresented management employees, who got multiple large raises during the last year under Matt Wayne, got an additional $2.3 MILLION in raises this school year. These are the district's highest-paid staff, who already get preferential benefits (including extra retirement funds).

Here's an idea: Any Democrat who wants to be taken seriously as a presidential candidate in 2028 must pledge to rip this cabal of anti-democracy tech fascists out of our government. Anyone who won't make that pledge is for the billionaires, not the people. This must be a deal-breaking litmus test.

If the congressional democrats won't defend their own member what makes us think they'll defend the rest of us
