the bushes were people 😂

Bad Bunny ends his Super Bowl halftime show in front of a sign reading "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE"

In case you missed the moment. Art is powerful

Switched back over to watch what was a gorgeous halftime show.

In case anyone forgot or didn't understand the reference www.wgbh.org/news/2017-10...

That halftime show is what people mean when they say "joy is an act of resistance."

According to the New Yorker, Donald Trump and his family profited off the presidency by an estimated $4 billion in 2025 — mostly through shady crypto deals. That amounts to $456,621 per hour. But how are you doing?

I love that this is part of the annual ritual, but I wish the players were on the field for it. Such a gorgeous song.

Her tone is sooooo clear #cocojones #superbowl60

HI - WE JUST HIT 40K??? BLACK JOY H*CK YEAH!! #BTB26 LET'S KEEP GOING!

Brandi Carlile singing America the Beautiful was so worth switching over for a few moments.

I love Olympic opening ceremonies. So fun and quirky. What a great way to get a sense of a place!

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley. Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo. Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and she’s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles. Get them out!

If you're around Alexandria, VA, Continues Arcade is having a Back to Black 2026 watch party tomorrow from 5-10 PM ET!! We'll also have a Black in a Flash 🔜 Back to Black table set up, so come say hi and enjoy some speedruns, food, and games! Learn more: https://www.continuesarcade.com/

This is your reminder that @lovedataweek.bsky.social starts on Monday Feb 9 and there are SO MANY awesome ways to celebrate, often online and for free!!

I think people often wonder this, and it's a great question, so let me explain the advantages of 3D printing whistles. There are many. The 3D printing effort started from one of our organizers who started by sourcing mass-produced whistles.

i can't believe that after a decade of this bullshit the framing of all this trump authoritarian blather is still "omg what if he does this" and not "this is prohibited by 250 years of american history and also the constitution"

Even if you don't have time to read all 83 pages of Judge Reyes's opinion barring the Trump administration from rescinding Temporary Protected Status for 350,000+ Haitians, please at least check out the four-page introduction. It's a tour de force: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

NEW: The @wired.com Security desk put together a comprehensive guide to filming ICE—with tips for reducing risk at the forefront. No paywall, but please consider subscribing to help find these kinds of resources. And stay safe out there. www.wired.com/story/how-to... www.wired.com/v2/offers/wi...

While this is a banger of a story, let's look again at that image of three federal officiers with guns drawn and pointed at an unarmed observer in her car. She's a citizen, but her status isn't really the point. These "officers" are the problem, and you can plainly see why.

NEW: School hallways are silent. Grandparents patrol outside in shifts. Two more kids taken from Liam Ramos' school. Trump isn't deescalating ICE at all at MN schools. “I stopped wearing my high heels to work. I wear my boots to work because I have had to run." www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...

This wrecked me.

I went to the last place that federal agents would look for me

I don’t know if I can say this the right way, but I’m glad people are trying to give things to Minnesota that can be fortifying. Not just resources, but moments to feel supported and appreciated.

In an interview with MPR News, Liam's mother gave an update on her son and her own safety. She said Liam asks again and again, “Mommy, why don’t you pick us up?” Or “Mommy, we don’t want to be here anymore. This place is ugly.”

Our street is still barely navigable. They don't have enough equipment to manage this weather, and the initial ice crust on Sunday's snow has turned it into what a colleague called "snowcrete." Thankful the new ride has AWD.

Y'all, right now is A LOT. Inasmuch as the cruelty is the point, so is the pace and the overwhelm. You don't have to do everything, but please, find *something* you feel connected to and *do something*. Donate to a food shelf, contact your representatives, sign up to be an election judge, something.

Listening to @jenpsaki.bsky.social and tearing up with her as she discusses Liam Ramos. Free those in the Dilley Detention Center now.

NEW: Liam Conejo Ramos, the 5-year-old who ICE agents in Minneapolis nabbed last week and shipped off to a Texas detention facility with his dad, is now in poor health, his school superintendent told me today www.huffpost.com/entry/liam-c...

I am so excited to not watch Melania's movie that I'm not watching it right now and will be not watching it all weekend!

Tierra Walker knew that abortion was illegal in Texas, but she thought that hospitals could make an exception for patients like her, whose health was clearly on the line. At 20 weeks pregnant, she died of preeclampsia. (Published Nov. 2025)

Absolutely damning from @aaronschaffer.com, @willoremus.com, & @nitasha.bsky.social. To get more data, Anthropic: * "destructively scanned" millions of books * downloaded the shadow library LibGen * hailed another shadow library's arrival as "just in time!!!" www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

More than 10,000 PhDs in health and STEM have left the federal workforce, with more than 20% leaving from HHS. Together, this is more than 106,000 years of federal experience and leadership pushed out of public service. This is why our health agencies are no longer functioning.

The neighbor discovered that the blocks of ice/snow that are being removed from sidewalks and vehicles are good for something...

It’s good that Bovino is out and the administration is publicly backpedaling BUT this happened today (and probably many more, too).

Okay this woman hanging onto Kevin is killing me lol #antiquesroadshow

brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days. His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

Everything they learned in Minnesota they’re applying in Maine from day one. They started off doing fast-moving snatch and grabs on the street, recording and using facial id on observers, and threatening observers directly. They’ll do it all where you live too.

Snow day viewing - documentary on people who lived in the Providence Place mall. Fascinating.

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."

I think a lot of us get hope wrong. Hope, I do not believe, is an emotion. In fact, hope makes space for lots of emotions to exist alongside it. You can DO hope scared, angry, sad etc... Hope doesn't find us. We make hope through action and struggle. It's a practice of living and is re-made daily.

Love Wins
