That shit was toughhhhhh 🤮

Today we mourn the passing of Rev. Jesse Jackson, a giant of the civil rights movement who never stopped demanding that America live up to its promise.

 He marched, he ran, he organized and he preached justice without apology.

May we honor him not just in words, but in struggle.

A system built to eat people never stops eating people.

the Black Panthers were right

Ban stock markets, and all forms of financialization If it isn’t a tangible good or service, it shouldn’t be bought or sold, period

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

What a strange thing to say

I'm not believing this until I hear from people in the streets of MN and neither should you

@theuniverse.bsky.social I just watched your 2019 ASU lecture and LOVED IT I’ve programmed professionally my whole life, but I’ve always felt alienated from the “software engineer” concept I saw myself in the women you profiled quite profoundly. So much to think about! Thank you

Please stop with the "some of them were citizens" thing Ever time you specify someone's citizenship you reify ICE's mission "No one is illegal on stolen land," remember?

A fact that sounds like bullshit but is actually true: There is more square footage of parking *per car* in the US than there is square footage of housing *per person.*

cancel the fucking olympics

When people say we’re going to need to create and recreate our own systems, they mean ALL the systems We’re gonna need to build a whole different world, originating from our grassroots networks and local affiliations

What a strange thing to say

I’m a web developer who knows the techniques from the old school Web 1.0 days Geocities, phpBB, blink tags, hit counters, 800x600 required, Netscape Navigator, etc As the modern web crumbles, I wonder if I could help people set up and modify message boards and do other things in The Old Ways

They're torture camps

The current regime took a week to abolish USAID, which is three times as old and was not in the news every day for brutalizing children

Inventing a headless woman for the sole purpose of fucking it is so cop-coded I’m surprised we didn’t all see this coming

tbh, I don’t get why people are going “omg read the article” about Waymo remote guidance. the point is this: gig drivers started to gain labor wins, to unionize. then these things showed up, with underpaid (and invisible-to-user) workers who are more easily exploited. the issue remains the same.

Read this and tell me whether you’d like to have 1) functional transit, 15 minute walkable cities or 2) more cars, just as big, just as heavy, controlled by opaque software and geo-arbitraged workers from half a world away

law enforcement only selectively enforcing laws??? in MY america??

Sight in San Francisco (from a friend)

scenes from occupied Minneapolis: “A man sitting in a car watching a house woth a gun on his lap and a mask on his face. Claims he didn't know the house has already been raided 2x.”

they said “america first” but really mean “america alone” and isolationism and nationalism are just a recipe for war and colonial expansion

fix ya hearts. protect the babies. kill the cop in your head. mutual aid.

If you are an NFL, NBA, WNBA, or MLS fan and feel like voicing your opinion on *things* like 🧊 or Ep st ein, I’ve made a spreadsheet of franchises, league offices, and player unions. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

I wish for you what you want for non-white gender diverse immigrants.

Just remembered that the GOP tanked a Dem border security bill before the last election They wanted all of this, the murder and concentration camps were never not the plan

Bovino out is a great indicator. It’s a great start. But none of us can be appeased right now. It’s still abolish ICE. It’s still prosecute these fascists. It’s still destroy the whole apparatus that has been terrorizing and disappearing and murdering our neighbors.

Good now prosecute his ass

Current status of the fundraisers for those killed by ICE: Renee Good: $1,499,580 Alex Pretti: $1,289,249 Keith Porter, Jr. $302,423 Parady La: $45,848 Heber Sanchez Dominguez: $47,991 Luis Beltrán Yanez Cruz: $18,640 Victor Manuel Diaz: $2,538 Geraldo Lunas: $2,260 Luis Gustavo Núñez: $1,935

Fun fact: Your local bookstore is doing more to protect you and your neighbors than Amazon is.

Why are we not calling Miller’s “network of warehouses“ CONCENTRATION CAMPS??

ABOLISH ICE NOW!

"ICE OUT" on Lake Nokomis in Minneapolis, as seen from my flight leaving MSP airport

This administration is cooked. Literally no one is scared of them.

Okay and?? They’re still disappearing people into concentration camps and murdering others in the streets. Until their bloody work stops, the org is dismantled, and perpetrators are on trial, this means NOTHING

If they are doing this to white people in broad daylight imagine what they are doing to non-white people in detention facilities.

A national general strike is needed not just to protest the violence, but to acknowledge the absurdity that we’re all just supposed to carry on with our stupid little daily lives amidst the ambient terrorism of an unchecked state militia executing innocent people in the streets of our country.

Seven democrats and every republican voted to fund this… YESTERDAY

LA stands with Mpls against ICE

If you live in California, you can now tell data brokers to delete your personal information. Here’s how to do it A new law service called DROP could help curb spam phone calls and emails.

As a label with both roots and operations in Minneapolis, we at GIVE/TAKE are disgusted and outraged by the ICE occupation of the Twin Cities and greater Minnesota, secret police disappearing people of color into the federal system, and the murder of Renee Good...
