Also participating in exercises like these is a great way to get phished and doxxed. :)

I don’t have one! This is handy for having online forms incorrectly yell at me to say that I left a field blank.

More people need to read this book

One thing that I have learned in the last few years is that all of the time I spent agonizing over making details perfect in reports and presentations was wasted because nobody with power ever read a single lone fucking word

The domestic industries Trump is most insistent on protecting aren’t fledgling or new; they’re dying or dead. We're abandoning the essential industries of the future. The tariffs are rooted not in the national interest, but in Trump’s personal interest. From Harold Meyerson:

Lying liars caught lying again. Water is wet, etc.

Make art. Dance. Skate. Play music. Bake a cake. Be happy. Fascists hate that shit.

I put $20 down cuz I'm sure I've reskeeted moons about the fascist situation here in Minnesota at least a few times. Match or best me?

"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending. . . there have been no convictions. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

i don't think it's wild to ask that people be held criminaly accountable for this

Just who they wanted to see, I'm sure.

Oh god. So yeah, Tourette's is a very real neurological disease, and people who have specific kinds of verbal tics are not saying what's in their heart or soul or anything of the sort. Their brain tics to the worst thing they are aware of in the world that can be said. Not a choice.

A powerful Nor’easter will move north from Cape Cod and along the Atlantic coastline of #NovaScotia on Monday. The storm bringing heavy snow and high winds to parts of the Maritimes. #NewBrunswick #PrinceEdwardIsland www.ctvnews.ca/atlantic/art...

TWO-MINUTE average response time for neighbors helping neighbors on the South Side. Much love to all you beautiful, wonderful, amazing people.

You, an individual, cannot "fix" the whole world. You can act at the scale of your life. You should act at the scale of your life.

“Meanwhile, when asked why she’s masking during chemo, Meg now says, “I’m training for the Olympics”.” It’s wild that masking in sports is sometimes more normalized than masking in medical settings.

Just realized you can sing "Cthulhu" to "The Love Boat" and now that's all I will do for the rest of the night

CTHULHU HE'LL BRING SOME MADNESS TO EVERYONE CTHULHU ONCE HE WAKES UP THE WORLD IS DONE

I’m not sure how much is breaking through the sunday news cycle about Mexico but remember the USA puts all this pressure to get the cartel leaders and provides absolutely no support with aftermath like this. Who buys the drugs? USA. Who supplies their guns? USA also

If you have people in affected areas (lots of US and Canadian expats, snowbirds and tourists there) they should get in contact with their embassy, stay inside, keep calm, eat something, charge their phones etc. Yes this is disruptive and scary for visitors but it’s much much harder on the locals

It’s not just the American right. Median opinion among my millennial age cohort when I lived in NorCal was “it’s cute you think you’re from a different country, you’re just not good enough to join” generally expressed as a weird dominance thing.

Well, towards space. Whether he makes it is kind of on him, you know. bsky.app/profile/kont...

2 grand would still come in clutch

Cut the check, Donald Trump.

Lying in the sun and sharing a berry with a gorgeous prehistoric boy 🐉

Incredible opinion. It holds that the common ICE tactic of jumping out of an unidentified rental vehicle and seizing suspected noncitizens while masked violates the Fourth Amendment because the *manner* of the seizure is incompatible with a free society governed by the rule of law.

No cheating your last saved picture of a celebrity is your therapist. As Scooby would say, “Ruh roh” 😬

Maybe somebody at CNN can explain the difference here because I don’t qwhite understand it 🤔

Well, the Rev. Jesse Jackson was both Black and fought for human rights.

I swear to fuck, any time I have to use an inhaler 2x I need to check my cpap machine. Light red discoloration when I sterilized it, which means ...mold. And now today I can breathe just fine. Back to using the smart spray that disinfects that shit daily.

I mean, who can blame us?

I left Substack because my presence on the platform inevitably helped legitimize it – and I didn’t think that was justifiable anymore. Our resources are finite. I do believe all of us, writers / creators as well as readers / consumers, have an obligation to use them as responsibly as possible.

As a dude who drives a 4wd truck, I abide by Truck Law®: carry a tow strap and stop to pull someone out if they need it. But if it's one of those shit boxes I just flip them off and keep going. You made a statement driving that nazimobile, so you can unfuck yourself.

These men want to live out their 24-7 D/S TPE (total power exchange) kink but they're too broke to pay sex workers the market rate.

Sex workers are FIGHTING for basic labor rights!

Periodic reminder that most anti- sex trafficking NGOs deliberately conflate sex work with sex trafficking in order to muddle the issues and deny sex workers human and labor rights. They also receive govt money (your tax dollars) to force women into their diversion programs.

Across the US, people fed up with Flock cameras surveilling their communities, and with local governments that are often unwilling to listen to concerns over privacy violations and ICE data sharing practices, are taking matters into their own hands—and tearing them down.

Four years ago, Shanteari Young shot her then-husband after learning that he sexually abused children at her day care. Having finished a four-year sentence in prison, Young now wants to advocate for children who’ve experienced sexual abuse

The trend of adult men physically attacking teenage girls for their political beliefs continues

Serious talk. Real photo postcard from my collection, no date/info.

Worker activism in tech is back. It's starting with opposition to ICE, but I think it will spill over into other areas. This thread will share what's happened recently and what I think might be next. As well as ways for folks to get involved if they want to.

i’m something of a dumbass myself 😌

The lawsuit challenges President Trump's plans for "Independence Arch," a 250-foot structure proposed for Memorial Circle. n.pr/4tO8lc5

Strong democracies tend to be the safest places to live. They have low interpersonal violent crime. And you're much safer from state-imposed violence. Never concede the lie that we must exchange freedom for security. www.brookings.edu/articles/dem...

In America my family during my great/grand parents era lived in the same towns, cities with people who randomly formed lynch mobs and had white citizens councils to enforce segregation laws, reporting on violations and targeting people for terrorism. Segregationist Americans reported on others too.

100% and this is what needs to understood by those championing democratic ideals. Authoritarianism only works when a spirit of rebellion is replaced by a spirit of snitching.
