I love a good winter storm societal freak out.

this guy is a terrible liar who genuinely believes he is great at lying

“This is what happens, Mr. President. When you dehumanize people, when you call them garbage and animals, people are going to get hurt. People are going to get killed.” - CT AG William Tong, shares some comments left on a post about him and his wife fostering a Black Lab

watch me unravel

Devastating: "Trump has managed in just one year to destroy the American order that was, and has weakened America’s ability to protect its interests in the world that will be. If Americans thought defending the liberal world order was too expensive, wait until they start paying for what comes next."

CNN: DHS officials have come to FEMA staff and told them to limit the use of the word ice…they are worried that by posting something like, watch out for the ice, that it's going to become a meme….

ICE just crashed a car at my intersection (due to their own shitty driving) and immediately got out and tear gassed observers.

‼️BREAKING‼️

Why are so many folks surprised at clergy members being harassed and arrested by ICE? 🗣️Didn’t we just celebrate MLK Day? Y’all don’t know what his day job was?!!! Again...folks should have voted accordingly in 2024. Stop waiting to have “the talk” with your children.

See how easy that was, fellow Dems?

Faith in action. What a powerful photo. www.mprnews.org/live-updates

Steve and Julia are officially nominated for an Academy Award! How cool is that?

It would have taken care of our problem.

Some lovely design, sewing & creativity happening…🪡🧵 “This is a sleeping bag for my mouse” 🐭💕

Today’s front page of the Minnesota Star Tribune. 👀

Thousands outside Terminal 1 at the Minneapolis airport now.

ICE agent asked why he's taking pictures of a legal observer's car, replies: "Cuz we have a nice little database and now you're considered a domestic terrorist. So have fun with that."

Just watched Blade Runner with an in-sync live orchestra at the Dolby Theatre. Yeah, that didn't suck. You know what will? Watching any epic movie now without one!

Seriously considering disconnecting from all social media. I interact here and on Snapchat. I’ve dropped everything else but Letterboxd.

We improve.

Someone just called me a believer in "purity tests" because I think the Democrats who just voted to fund the president's unaccountable masked goon squad deserve to be primaried. If your definition of "purity" is that basic, you're beyond helping

Starting “My Man Godfrey” for the first time.

the idea of hallucinating dozens of elves or whatever is terrifying to me www.bbc.com/future/artic...

If every Democrat voted NO on funding ICE, it would not have passed the House. But, 7 House Democrats voted to fund Trump's lawless, masked goons, so it passed. Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his members to vote against ICE funding. Genuinely unforgivable.

Who do these Dems think they represent? What the fuck do they even stand for?

LOL, fuck that noise.

6th grade powers restored.

Dear all journalists - Just because the president has long believed [X] or has always wanted to [Y], that doesn’t make it, y’know, a thing. Or legal. Thanks.

Seriously, @people.com has been meeting the moment better than 90% of publications with direct reporting and crystal clear headlines. This is a good way for the low-information voters who are usually detached from the news cycle to get turned around.

Sharing this because I cannot get enough of how The Daily Beast always refers to Bari Weiss as "MAGA-coded". Every single story.😘 www.thedailybeast.com/maga-coded-c...

Wow -- Fanone coughs "go fuck yourself" to Trey Nehls as Nehls blames Capitol Police leadership for January 6

After using military force in Venezuela without a plan for replacing the regime, the country is still run by Maduro’s henchmen. Now the president has promised the Iranian people that he will come to their aid, but without a plan for doing so that doesn’t mire us down in another endless war. 🧵

Goals.

Dummy.

Quick question: Is it a bad sign when even Big Pharma says "Y'all wanna die and/or be riddled with disease so we're gonna let ya." www.reuters.com/business/hea...

I keep seeing leftists from outside of Minneapolis say they’ve seen all this before, and no, you haven’t. I’ve been at this for 30+ years and I haven’t either. It’s not what you’re picturing. This is something else

A zippy little read.

Friend sent this to me today. It’s in Seattle. Hadn’t seen it on here yet so I figured I’d share.

A good friend was just laid off from Autodesk this morning so the company can restructure to dedicate resources to AI. So I have a single data point that AI is responsible for job loss.

I saw this same sunset tonight while driving across the Golden Gate Bridge.

Necessary reading.
