I cannot understate enough how large of a cliff we are driving toward concerning the last two NOFOs. We are going to see an explosion of homelessness across the country.

Turns out that this Messi guy is still very good.

Beautiful goal from Algeria but it will likely be called off.

Well, that didn’t take long. Not sure how you lose track of Messi in the box. Shambolic defending.

What a fantastic strike.

It’s the hope that kills you and Spurs are doing their best to deprive us even of hope.

"Nice company you got there. It'd be a shame if something were to happen to it."

Refreshing social media every few minutes to discover if Trump has bombed Iran, Cuba, Anthropic or the Supreme Court.

I never look forward to traveling for work because I always miss my family. Nights and mornings are especially difficult for me because I am not used to being alone for long stretches of time even though alone time Is something that I enjoy. This trip, however, hasn’t been the worst.

ICE demanding documents from anyone who is not white to prove citizenship is extremely bad on a number of levels. One that is often overlooked is that folks who are homeless often do not have the legal documents needed to “prove” citizenship. These folks are being swept up by ICE across the country.

Edward Sharpe and the Nazi Zeros

And that’s by design. We still don’t have a clean NOFO either.

Every single Democrat who is considering anything less than calling for Noem and Miller’s immediate removal need only look at this to remind themselves that the Trump admin does not negotiate in good faith.

One thing that seems very clear to me is that in any other time what Trump is doing would lead to immediate calls for impeachment. At best we’re seeing our democratic leaders call for Noem and/or Miller to be impeached/resign. This is not enough. Trump mush go.

We can only hope that whatever “adults” are left in the room are telling Trump to distance himself from Miller. Doubtful, but a hope nonetheless.

The Gestapo needs better training

Every single time a Trump official lies about what is happening in Minneapolis they create a space between their narrative and the truth. We can use the space to challenge the their credibility. These officials are weak, fragile, and hanging on for dear life.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

"This is a verified page fundraising support for the Minneapolis Regional Labor Federation, AFL-CIO and Working Partnerships' 2026 rapid response effort to meet the needs of impacted union members, worker center members, and their families..." workingpartnerships.betterworld.org/campaigns/su...

are they not monsters?

I cannot, for the life of me, fathom how someone is this out of touch with what matters to everyday Americans.

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention. The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.

A video in Minneapolis appears to show a federal agent kneeing a man in the face while he is being arrested.

ICE funding expires January 30. Call Congress to say whether you think it should be continued. US Capitol switchboard: 202-224-3121.

My only thought after watching Trump’s #patriotgames announcement is that he recently watched The Hunger Games (I’m sure he didn’t read it) and thought, “Snow was a good guy, the best guy, who just got the execution wrong. We can do it better!” We live in the worst timeline for so many reasons.

Niche, I know, but what Shiffrin is doing this season is incredible. 3 straight slalom wins and all by a significant margin. She’s still very much at the top of her game. US is +184 overall and have to be considered early favorites to win the cup for the first time since ‘82.

The new #NOFO will dramatically and systematically impact service delivery in a negative way which will likely increase the number of people experiencing homelessness.

Finally had a chance to get through the NOFO. A few things stick out to me. 1. Timing: it’s going to be incredibly difficult for CoCs to complete it by Jan 14, ‘26.

I am very much not looking forward to flying tomorrow and Saturday for work.

This is your regular reminder that we are on the verge of a national homelessness crisis unlike anything we’ve ever seen.

Pure propaganda

This is solid (nice touch with the big cross necklace), but it still comes off a bit too on the nose, even for this fascist administration. So thanks for the look, but we’re going to pass. Maybe try submitting to McSweeney’s Pyongyang Tendency?

Democrats, your messaging is pretty easy here. "Republicans control Congress, but they can't agree on a budget. And we won't support their proposal that would hurt so many people. Now Trump says he'll shut down the government, and cut benefits you depend on. We won't be part of it."

For no specific reason it’s worth noting that 63% of all politically motivated killings come from the right. According to the Cato Institute.

The next people that they come for will very likely be those who are homeless. It is time for service providers to think extremely critically about how they navigate helping people find shelter.

This quote belongs on page one of every legal brief filed against this administration.

Not to put too fine of a point on it but what Trump does in DC will be replicated in LA in the run up to the Olympics and World Cup.

“Fiscal Conservatism”

Bergval and Son are here in body but clearly still on holiday. #COYS #THFC

I cannot stress this enough. My undergraduate degrees are in English and Philosophy. My graduate degree is in English. I work in data and analytics building databases, reports, and doing data analysis.

Amidst all the bullshit deciding to get back on my bike was simultaneously one of worst and best decisions that I could have made.

I am not mechanically inclined. I haven’t touched my road bike since last October because work and life have been incredibly busy. I topped off the tire sealant and went on a hour long ride. I did not charge di2 group set. 50 minutes of my ride with single speed. I am exhausted.

It’s abundantly clear the our RB and LB are not good enough. Dest and Robinson offer so much more than our current guys. #USMNT #GoldCup

#USMNT is going to have to match Mexico’s physicality because the ref is happy to allow hard challenges that ordinarily would be called a foul. #GoldCup

This time last year I was riding 50km daily five days a week. I’ve not touched my bike at all this year due to how busy work has been. My daily workload hasn’t changed at all except for having to navigate all of the changes to grants and the CoC that the Trump admin has made.

ITV4 coverage of the #TDF is killing me with their commercials. So many extremely sad commercials.

Picking Wout van Aert as one of mu #TDF fantasy riders was a high risk gamble that could win me my league or cause me to lose it.
