when Pam Bondi tried to extort the voting rolls yesterday from Minnesota, that should give us a clue what this is really about.

I know multiple people who have already had pretty bad PTSD exacerbations from ICE footage and it is NOT movement building to cause those people (or yourself) harm and take them (or yourself) out of commission

Habituating yourself to graphic depictions of horror may FEEL like moral practice. It is not. Moral speech and action is the moral practice.

Makes me think of the piles of shoes and suitcases.

Notching a rare win: House passed spending bills with all anti-trans riders removed—no care bans, no school funding threats, nothing. Sarah McBride and Dem appropriators fought for this for months. open.substack.com/pub/aridrenn...

Great news🚨Our article "Mismatching expressions: spatiotemporal and kinematic differences in autistic and non-autistic facial expressions" is published in Autism Research⭐ Thanks to Jennifer Cook, Sophie Sowden & Holly O'Donoghue. Check out the thread below for a summary doi.org/10.1002/aur.... 🧵1

ICE secretly told its officers that any time someone has been ordered removed, ICE can break down their door. It has been accepted for generations that the only thing which can authorize agents to break into your home is a warrant signed by a judge. No wonder ICE hid this memo!

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."

Your final straw can’t be when it’s too late to do something to stop it. Speak up. Stand up. #iceout

The aurora last night in Fairbanks, Alaska

Greetings from amateur radio station KL2R in Two Rivers, Alaska. HF conditions are atrocious, but the sky is breathtaking.

12 hours ago the aurora was out and I was lucky to see it out again just now. This planet is excellent. Love you. #auroraborealis #yukonterritory

The early evening aurora substorm was one for the books. I stopped here hoping for some decent leftover aurora before the storm started winding down, but instead, the sky exploded in huge pink pillars and shimmering greens. -- January 20, 2026 • 6:35 PM ET Wagon Hill Farm Durham, New Hampshire

Wow. Here’s the real-time motion of the aurora tonight filmed with my iPhone. Amazing show just now, and the night is only getting started!

It looks like there is extremely red aurora behind the clouds as seen from Maine. It looks to be very intense... so much so that the snow is glowing purple even though the skies are overcast! Get out if you have clear skies and are in the Northeast. go.theauroraguy.com/webcams

Incredible and rare BLUE AURORA ongoing from Bay Port, MI. Look at this webcam screenshot now. Very colorful aurora with potentially naked-eye colors. go.theauroraguy.com/webcams Despite waning conditions, the aurora is still out!

Here is a current view of the Matterhorn in Switzerland with bright red aurora and green proton aurora spots. Solar wind data are turning a bit sour for extreme low-latitude aurora for the U.S., but the system is still pumped up enough for Europe! go.theauroraguy.com/webcams

Tonight’s Aurora from Argyll.

My parents have a touch of the aurora borealis tonight. As it were.

Aurora Borealis View from my garden - absolutely beautiful to see ☺️ #photography #auroraborealis #Scotland

I see you, Earth. Deciding to completely skip G1-2. Looks like we're in for something great. #aurora #wx

NOAA SWPC just issued a rare G4 / SEVERE geomagnetic storm watch for Monday night! This is the highest level of geomagnetic storm watch that exists (no such thing as a G5 watch). Stay tuned for more updates from me as I compile some longform posts to give you all the details

once again saying: our ancestors accomplished more, with less, against worse.

The people of MN give me far more hope than the largely feckless “opposition” leaders of our country or the deeply compromised and ineffectual media both-sidesing white nationalist totalitarianism.

This is a public health crisis and cis people acting like it isn’t because it targets trans children primarily (even though it will affect cis children too!!) is nasty business

13 Dec 2025 @rikiwilchins.bsky.social -- Five transgender inmates at the Utah State Prison are suing the state for allegedly preventing them from receiving needed hormone therapy since HB252, a ban on prison GAC, was passed earlier this year.

Everything about this game feels awful #BYU

Wow, Adm. Holsey didn't leave of his own accord, Hegseth pushed him out. What looked like the SOCOM head resigning rather than do war crimes now looks like SecDef canning him to facilitate war crimes. Congress should have him testify, and would've already if war-crime-sympathetic GOP didn't run it.

What a spectacular eruption from the active region rotating onto the Earth-facing disk. There was a large amount of plasma ejected with this CME triggered by a major X1.9 flare peaking around 248 UT on Dec 1.

The aurora glowed in the sky all night. It was a fantastic show in Fairbanks, Alaska
