Shana Tova to my Jewish friends

Confirmation that Trump will be signing an executive order designating "antifa"—i.e., opposition to fascism—as "a domestic terrorist organization." What this will mean concretely has yet to be seen. For now, read this guide to preparing communities to endure repression: crimethinc.com/Safeguarding

“I was a Christian pastor for 14 years and 88 days, so I know what I am talking about when it comes to blaming Jewish people for things they didn’t do”

“The deal exempts the Commanders from property taxes on the stadium and the surrounding development; it exempts the Commanders from sales taxes on personal seat licenses; it gives the Commanders the exclusive right to develop housing and retail around the stadium, at the low price of $1 per year…”

ANOTHER UPDATE from Huffpo (because nothing is real or stable in these times) "After initially planning to temporarily close the Broadview facility, the Department of Homeland Security decided Sunday to keep it open and operational, according to agency communications."

Lupe Fiasco in 2006:

UPDATE: Huffpo is reporting the Trump administration "plans to evacuate" the Broadview facility in the wake of recent protests. If you have info about where ICE's processing operations will be happening in the Chicagoland area after this move, I am KMHChi.01 on Signal.

Someone: some breaking news happened Several people: got a source for that? Someone: Google it 🤦

Surprised he didn’t take PTO to go to Charlie Kirk’s funeral

Jordan Davis weighs 330 pounds. And he ran almost 19mph to score a td after playing an entire game. #NFL

No fucking way. Jordan Davis blocks the field goal and Jordan Davis scores the touchdown. Eagles come back from 25-7 and win 33-26. Go Birds. #NFL

Friday we hosted Brooke from @oaklandabosol.bsky.social for an excellent discussion of Platoon. Check it out if you missed it.

it's not a statistical or a computational limitation, because that implies that if you have better statistical methods or bigger compute or bigger data you can get around these things the problem is that you're modeling word tokens; you can't get out from under that this isn't revelatory though

Inspired by Chicago I am headed to one in Detroit now

Making an Eagles thread so you can mute it if you want 🧵

I’m at a community meeting about resisting ICE in Chicago. There are about 400 people in this high school auditorium. Chicago is showing up.

Isaiah Rodgers pick 6 🥲

Did the Eagles just do a tush push on 4th and 1 at the 3 yard line? And then a tush push on first down for the td? Lol, I get why other teams hate this

The nfl app just straight up doesn’t load if I’m on a vpn, which I basically always am

they should have a "no turn on red" of the left

"In a landmark study, OpenAI researchers reveal that large language models will always produce plausible but false outputs, even with perfect data, due to fundamental statistical and computational limits." www.computerworld.com/article/4059...

just learned that one of the people in the feminist caucus meeting objected to a rule change that would allow delegates to say their pronouns without being out of order because "it would alienate rural Minnesotans" and what are we even fucking doing. Stop assuming rural = ignorant or bigoted.

Can you imagine how much money you’d make in an infinite hotel? You could charge everyone zero (or really a decimal that’s as close to zero as possible) and still make infinite money

I just checked in to Hilbert’s Hotel and they’re taking FOREVER to get my room ready

People heard about Kalief’s story during the dreaded Woke Times but conveniently forgot how moved they were when it was time to defend ending cash bail.

This quote from Lorenzo Kom’boa Ervin is important: “This key principle, that oppressed peoples have a right to self-determination, includes the right to run their own organizations and liberation struggles. The victims of racism know best how to fight back against it”

Jason Garcia has been in the ICU since September 2 for a perforated appendix and needs funds to cover their hospitalization and recovery. I really can’t overstate how good people Jason is. They always show up for everyone in need with so much care. Now it’s our turn to show up and care for them! ❤️‍🩹

❗️Support needed❗️ Our close friend got a job! He’s got three weeks of trainings. We’re covering his travel expenses to & from but if you’ve got $5 or $10 to spare to help him get food & other needs it would be appreciated 🙏 C*shApp: $justlivin4

i don’t think people on bluesky understand the severity of this situation. i woke up to literally hundreds of texts from friends and family thinking about either moving back home to india or applying to other countries for jobs. this includes me.

Those on an H1B cannot return to the US from tomorrow (Sunday) unless paying $100K. This is an out-of-the blue presidential action. We’ll see software engineers stranded abroad. One easy to predict outcome: those on US visas will travel less… for work, for conferences etc.

Tbh this is intentional with some autonomous cell-based org structures. The main goal is to make infiltration and repression more difficult because everyone in the group only knows a few other people in the group. There’s no central leadership, so there’s no hierarchy to infiltrate

As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

I don’t know how to talk to people in my mentions saying weird shit like this. I spent the evening dodging pepper balls fired by ICE and coughing on gas, bro. The police are well aware of the situation and probably jealous of the thugs who were attacking us.

Tear gas everywhere.

The crowd is taking a knee in the street outside of the Broadview Detention Center with their fists up to honor Silverio Villegas-Gonzáles, the man ICE killed last week, victims of police violence, and the people being killed in Palestine.

I’m not here as a medic, but I had to flush the eyes of someone who got hit in the head with a pepper ball a few minutes ago.

Mmm I don’t like the conclusion you reached here. Requiring people to verify their age to use social media is not the move

“We’ve become stronger as a community through this, we have tested our skills and learned our strengths. We have leaned on each other and relied on each other. It’s coming for y’all next, but you will also get through this.” Thanks @mskellymhayes.bsky.social for letting us share our thoughts.

Jimmy Kimmel has a net worth of tens of millions of dollars

The writing was on the wall when Sean O’Brien spoke at the RNC convention last year

If you all remember Menna- she was a med student and today she was able to get to Ireland to study (which is a minor miracle) ❤️❤️❤️

it's hard to be queer in appalachia, and someone I care a lot about was arrested seemingly for walking home on rural roads while queer after losing his keys. He's trying to raise funds for his court costs. www.gofundme.com/f/5d3hr-help...

Letter writing is an easy way to show solidarity with prisoners, especially people who are locked up for their political beliefs

We’re writing letters to political prisoners and ICE detained folks tonight. 2775 Cottage Way #15 in Sac. 7pm. We’ll have pizza (vegan and nonvegan!), and cool people to chat with 🥳 join us!

Ranked choice voting means you actually get to vote for what you want. I’m ranking Davis 1st because I like him. I’m ranking Omar 2nd because I think he’s the most likely to win and I agree with his policies the most. I’m ranking Jazz 3rd bc not ranking all 3 is a vote for Frey! We deserve better!

If you're a white leftist who wants to be an organizer, the #1 way I know coalitions will fail is if you're snide to Black people online. Calling marginalized folks cowardly and stupid for trying to keep themselves safe while protesting? You don't have what it takes.

My body hurts and will probably hurt way more tomorrow. But it’s a lot less pain than what our neighbors are enduring inside the Broadview ICE facility.

The Trump administration has finally released Ayman Soliman, a beloved former children’s hospital chaplain in the Cincinnati area
