Utterly pathetic and historically unprecedented.

So an odd thing here is that if you say "an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume" your point is to communicate "it is not really Batman" but the problem is that the real Batman, within the fiction of the comic book "Batman", is also, literally, an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume

Obviously great the Olympics never happened here but I will say I was a pretty good logo designer as a kid and Boston 2008 was probably my best work. Gotta find that.

I can’t stress this enough. The state of 4th Amendment law is that the cops can’t force you to type in a passcode but they can force you to swipe your finger or present your face. Never stop using passcodes/passwords to unlock your devices. And consider additional code to unlock Signal.

Thank you #TenPeopleOnTwitter for saving Boston from bankruptcy. Our idiot ex-Mayor and ex-Governor were all in, till you all rose up.

Thousands in #Seattle march in protest of #ICE

Well, X is run by a Nazi for Nazis.

what, were all their brooms broken?

OP really thought he had something

On the other hand, if you want your message to go viral, the costume is a great idea. City councils should be scolded by Batman, Superman, Captain America, Jesus Christ, Snake Plissken and more.

Rare Facebook W

memorial ride for alex pretti in lincoln, ne. about 16 of us in total. hit the trails and it was a great ride.

Restaurant owners *do* do this, but it's almost always 3-6 months before making tearful social media posts that they're closing their doors.

*former CoS at DoJ

the chief of staff at the DOJ and the US homeland security advisor publicly begging on twitter for lawyers to *DM them* about applying for AUSA jobs should tell you volumes about how staffing is going at the DOJ, even restaurant owners don’t do this

For academics still paying attention, T the names "Nowak" and "Kosslyn" appear several thousand times in the new Epstein files dump. You can search at www.justice.gov/epstein

holy shit in this one, in September 2009, marc hauser asks jeffrey epstein to fund a new project, when he knows that his federal funding is all gonna disappear because of his scientific misconduct. wild www.justice.gov/epstein/file...

Under this Administration: Supporting Palestine -> federal crime Explicit anti-semitism & white supremacist views -> immediate promotion highest ranks of law enforcement

They pulled 100% of the scientific funding to Harvard over bullshit nonsense accusations of anti-semitism while sending this actual white supremacist to lead a masked paramilitary group to kill and terrorize Americans in the street

At the start of the Unity Ride in Minneapolis in memory of Alex Pretti. There are hundreds if not thousands of bikers here ✊🏼

The group bike ride for Alex Pretti is about to depart in Minneapolis, stopping at his memorial, then Renee Good’s, and finishing at the VFW. If you can join, hop on anywhere. It’s a warm 17° & sunny! I’ve never seen this many cyclists for a group ride. ⚡️✊🏽⚡️🚲⚡️✊🏽⚡️ #RIPPretti

Also honestly if you're even a halfway decent lawyer, your job at the DOJ right now is going to be "to break the law," and even a complete sociopath can see some obvious problems with holding that job for your future prospects, or even just staying out of jail.

another reason i am bullish on trying to get DHS to have to get judicial warrants for immigration arrests is that it’s just going to straight up break the DOJ

They Don’t Have Enough Guys theory remains undefeated

These were the people who held the careers of female scholars in their hands . This is who was shaping or epistemological world

I don't like to talk about stories before they are fully reported, but I am writing on ICE in a Minnesota town that isn't Minneapolis. However bad you think it is, it is worse. It is a campaign of pure terror whose only strategic goal is more terror. There is no strategy other than to break people.

I think if it happens, the only way to avoid McGotterdammerung is Trump getting declared damnatio memoriae. Constitution enters a fail state with no means of remedy within a constitutional framework and there's no political will for a new Constitution, so time to break out the Men In Black thingies.

The tail risk of Boston Massacre 2 plus Great Recession 2 plus Epsteingate all snowballing at the same time is, uh... *whew.*

Something that I think gets lost in the "Epstein files as political weapon" discourse is that Maxwell's own crimes were serious, extensive, and included sexual abuse of minors that *she herself* perpetrated.

It’s not doomerism to say trump, his party, and his government are trying to rig elections including the midterms; that’s just … reality It is doomerism to act like they are likely to “cancel” the midterms or that their success in rigging it is at all a given

Big turnout in Fort Collins for the Alex Pretti ride.

Also worth noting that the Trump regime has completely lost control of the mainstream narrative around ICE. The right-wing mediasphere is weakly grasping at whistles and someone kicking a tail light. They've got nothing.

ICE and CBP don't have enough guys and the ones they do have seem to be rapidly approaching burnout, while each day new people join the opposition with absolutely incredible energy. We are going to win.

i will say, it’s very heartening to see the shoe on the other foot for once. usually protests fizzle because they lack the popular support to win the war of atrition against well funded PDs. for the first time, that’s no longer a given

My god it is an absolute treasure trove and please may it stay that way

Remember to boycott Target stores NATIONWIDE for supporting ICE! And tell them why. Thank you! (contact info in my pinned thread)

Unity ride for Alex Pretti leaves Dupont Circle in Washington, DC

Ride Together, Stand Together for Alex Pretti, Renee Good and other victims of federal immigration operatives

We Ride in Unity = Iowa City = Remembering Alex Pretti. #noice #iowa

Yes, we need ALL the Epstein files.

oh boy someone talked to a lawyer (who wrote that post for him)

a profound and righteous obituary for our friend dan mcquade www.nytimes.com/2026/01/30/u...

Don't think I'll be watching today's bonesaw wrestling show

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept." Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

Boulder likes its bike freedom, we like American Freedom more. One thousand participants in Unity Ride for Alec Pretti

There is power in making your voices heard. Massachusetts residents should not live in fear because of a lawless and cruel federal administration.

I found the first investigative file from the first complainant against Epstein in 2005. There are descriptions from the officer, over several interviews of the girl, of her pulling her knees up on the chair, drawing doodles, & the officer high-fiving her to keep her calm as she speaks of horror.

Milwaukee, 2026

wow a lot of you are just microwaving omelettes, like monsters

It strikes me that the point at which Sal started doing long runs where he inked his own pencils was close to the point when Marvel started paying royalties. Er, “incentives.” Suddenly, it was possible to do the lower-paid job of inking and still make “enough,” whatever that was for Sal.
