Meta thinks now is a great time to launch facial recognition surveillance tech in their creepy glasses because EFF will be too distracted by fascism to notice. We noticed. www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

The vibe shift is so good

All the angry white men in sunglasses sitting in their cars and yelling about on social media platforms that no one uses anymore were right: Just ONE Bad Bunny Superbowl performance and BAM! Guacamole stations spring up in airport lounges. "I thought this was supposed to be AMERICAN airlines!" 😄

Visitors to our country should not face a digital shakedown. @wyden.senate.gov and I are calling on CBP to reverse its invasive proposal to collect five years of social media history from travelers from trusted partner nations.

Oh no. They know. It's pretty well documented they must at least know. seeingrednebraska.com/black-lives-...

Sigh. Former employee of ours used his work email address to sign up for all kinds of crap and we still get those emails sometimes. Gotta love seeing a promotional email from a gun range that opted to name themselves "88 Tactical" 🙄

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

Looking at a calendar today. Half a year is exactly 183 days. So very much has happened in the past six months, and at the same time so little progress has been made. This skeet will not make sense to any of you. I am not even certain that it makes sense to me. 💔

I'm not one of those folk who watch the big game *only* for the commercials, but nonetheless I do watch the ad breaks. My summary of this year's commercials so far: AI slop AI slop Money Management AI slop Hey, fatty, use GLP drugs AI slop AIPAC propaganda AI slop Ugh. 🙄

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

Went to dinner in Highland Park with kids1&2. Good vibes.

Absolutely perfect dog to have found that stick

In this video from @deviantollam.bsky.social he speaks to manufacturers at SHOT Show who are making firearm suppressors by 3d printing them using metal (in at least one case using titanium). youtu.be/Ir8iUdsW2Lo?...

We must prevent future Trumps. We need a constitutional amendment to: • Lower the bar for impeachment and conviction to 3/5 or even a simple majority • Term-limit Supreme Court justices • End presidential immunity • Prevent Congress from delegating its powers to the Executive Branch

Thousands of people filled the streets of downtown Minneapolis in protest of federal immigration enforcement for the second consecutive Friday. 📷️: Aaron Lavinsky

Epstein is the most garish and harrowing manifestation of this but oligarchy makes life miserable in a thousand other ways. A core point of democracy is that no one should have so much power that they can make themselves everybody's problem. We should have a political party that believes that

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

The FBI was able to access Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson's Signal messages because she used Signal on her work laptop. The laptop accepted Touch ID for authentication, meaning the agents were allowed to require her to unlock it. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

An unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume angrily confronted Santa Clara city officials during a joint meeting of the City Council, city authorities, and the Santa Clara Stadium Authority on Monday, using his public comment to condemn the city’s stance on cooperation with ICE.

If, under Adolf Hitler, the Nazis had been compelled to behave themselves more politely while they rounded up and disappeared people, if they had been discouraged from murdering German gentiles as they carried out the Holocaust, would that have addressed the problem? No. ICE is ethnic cleansing.

rare to get such a clear glimpse into the mind of someone whose response to problems in his personal life was to blame black people

Elon Musk publicly slandering that cave diver as a "pedo guy" after he begged Jeffrey Epstein for island party invites is just incredible

Recall that Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered not long ago by a fake cop who showed up at their door looking like this guy

Hell yes!  Many of us have been following this story from the beginning, and I'm SO glad to see it resolved finally... arstechnica.com/security/202...

This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.

She immediately heads toward danger, then says and does exactly what she came to do. That’s real courage. No wonder they spend so much time hating her.

All my Seattle neighbors, I've missed you very much. I will be passing through town for one day at the end of this week. With my travel schedule it is very likely that I will be able to catch my friend Kaytlin's amazing show the night of the 29th... www.instagram.com/reel/DT1NHYC...

This is an absolutely essential component of any legislation being proposed to combat the abuses of ICE / CBP and DHS in general. When you speak to your representatives about this issue, make certain that you mention it, please.

Minnesota is full of people who don’t really want to confront you, but will if they have to. Philly whips batteries at Santa Claus because it’s funny. There’s a literal jail in the football stadium. The baseline demeanor is “what the fuck are you looking at.” ICE deserves everything they get.

part of this is like, conservatives projecting; part of this is conservatives unable to imagine politics without money; and part of this is dudes who are so out of touch with feminized labor that they think children's birthday parties exist as a spontaneous act of parthogenesis

It should freak the American people out that Trump, Noem and Bovino lie so enthusiastically. He wasn't "brandishing a weapon". He wasn't attending a "riot" or "interfering in a crime scene". He was an ICU nurse exercising his constitutional rights. We saw what we saw.

I'd be interested in seeing if someone is going to create a version where the civilian out of frame in the lower-left is holding a firearm as opposed to merely a smartphone (because historically armed community defense is also an important aspect of antifascist work) but this version isn't bad, too

While the pasty incels who work the federal agencies continue to churn out feeble, bloodless AI pastiches of Axis propaganda, here’s how a living breathing artist powerfully invokes design history. This is by illustrator Emily K in South Philly, a free poster-sized download on her website: →

Curious why ICE and CBP agents are so brutal? Here's a useful explainer I wrote last week, before Saturday's outrageous murder, about how uniquely unsuited ICE and CBP are for this moment—and why they were so corruptible into Trump's own fascist secret police: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-101-ho...

www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDEA... Devon's reaction to the video that we have all watched far too many times already is deeply moving.

Follow up: this is the change that is causing issues for many @signal.org users right now, myself included.

Is anyone else a @signal.org user on Android? Have you noticed a major UI change recently? There are several changes that I'm seeing which are just... so bad. 😖

This is Dulce Consuelo Diaz Morales She is 22 years old and has a U.S. birth certificate ICE detained her for -25 days- and now is being forced to wear an ankle monitor by ICE because they question her citizenship status

The democrats' obsession with running just barely to the left of actual nazis is the real reason we're here. Newsom hates trans people and personally did photo ops destroying houseless encampments. He pals around on nazi podcasts and agrees with them on key issues. Nobody with a conscience wants him

🎶 go on home, federal soldiers, go on home have you got no bloody homes of your own? 🎶

In Minneapolis

JD Vance, speaking about the actions of the woman who was murdered by ICE agent Jonathan Ross for trying to drive away: "This is classic terrorism." They will murder you—and lie about you even when everyone can see what happened. They will call you a terrorist even if you comply. So why comply?

Positive thought to end the day: The amount of organizing & mutual aid happening in Minneapolis right now is NEXT LEVEL. We will protect our neighbors & get through this as best we can. We are so much stronger together. And we are SO together right now. I ❤️ you, MPLS.

Hey! Are you one of my friends based in Portland Oregon? This show at 7:00PM tonight at the Clinton Street theater will be incredible... www.instagram.com/reel/DJuLcu8... ... this is my friend Kaytlin and her one woman show is absolutely amazing.... theoldestprofession.org/upcoming-sho...
