From the print Onion

We have to stop rewarding white male mediocrity.

Portland’s Antifa headquarters.

TROY210 is up. Be careful out there.

I wonder if headaches aren’t caffeine withdrawal but my autism levels getting low.

Unfortunately with the fucking around at the native plant sale comes the finding out of having to dig a lot of holes.

Not the anti culture wars people waging war based on culture. ICE terrorism, military occupation of ‘liberal’ cities that house a diverse array of BIPOC communities, massive fed funding cuts to programs benefitting Native nations, DEI purges… idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I appreciate the excellent reporting that @unraveledpress.com is doing in Chicago and plan to become a paid subscriber in October.

Thread! Diagnosis comes from access.

Little Free Anti-ICE Libraries: yesterday multiple people were abducted by ICE in my Chicago neighborhood (Avondale). This morning I added 40 ICE alert whistles to three different LFLs, including one box that is about a block from one of the kidnappings. I have ordered 700 whistles.

The feds just arrested one of the best journalists in Chicago for reporting on them Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

a weird place a lot of people accidentally dox themselves in when showing their pet’s tags on the internet and then i text them a screenshot and say oh no friend! you’ve posted your number on the internet!

there is now a gofundme to support barbara’s family and friends: www.gofundme.com/f/help-barba...

My cat somehow acquired a nemesis in the last 24 hours and it may be the funniest thing thats happened in a while. Its just quiet nonstop mean mugging over here. Spidermen pointing meme.

You may really enjoy this then. Neurodivergence is the lawful variation of cognitive architecture. If we want to improve anything we have to start with objective accuracy and not authoritarian rhetoric. www.hivegeist.us/2025/09/23/n...

Sorry for the corny joke

This is where i laugh at nd stereotypes. Yes i am very sensitive to unexpected noise. At the same time i have no problem with hanging out with rock tumblers, & since teenage ive never felt more me than on ear-pummeling, body shattering dancefloors w unreal bass and visuals. lifelong raver & junglist

Yall want to know what your mid 40s look like? #rockhounding #rocktumbling #techno

I love going to a random rural cidery and running into folks from my beerleague. Shop talk.

On Friday Oct 10 we are hosting ANOTHER DJ Bike ride in Saint Paul, from Lowertown Bike Shop! This event coincides with the Fall Art Crawl! Come down and dance along the river! 10/10 6pm Lowertown Bike Shop! www.movemn.org/event/glow-g... @joyfulridersclub.bsky.social @moveminnesota.bsky.social

I wish Democrats had the fortitude of Republicans, to spend decades, fighting to change public opinion to their favor. That’s the important lesson to learn here as opposition, not to move the party to become moderate conservatives which seems like the current push.

I love how the Democratic party’s outreach strategy consists of spamming the shit out of us with texts that either read like disappointed parents being passive aggressive, or some narcissist breaking up with us.

In a world where murderers are shitposters with no ideologies, the newspapers of record must become the ideologues in order to sell eyeballs to advertisers.

Starbucks is closing stores and cutting 900 jobs in a restructuring move. 1,100 jobs were slashed earlier this year. Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

Wow. Take time to watch this speech. It's the best speech from the UN. Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley of Barbados. youtu.be/WYqd5i0MRSk?...

Get you some friends who match your weird energy

I share a wall with one of the bookable rooms at the library and right now someone is hum singing ‘oh come all ye faithful.’ They’re not terrible and there are worse Christmas songs but idk if i need this particular ear worm rn.

Very cool! "Metra will put its prototype Café Car into service this fall, rotating it across most of its busiest lines and stations." www.metra.com/newsroom/met... No word on whether it will include live DJ's, like last June's Morning Coffee Rave. 🚉 ☕️ 🎵 💃🕺 www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eeo...

❤️🖤Big shout out for a great intro to anarchism by @margaret.bsky.social ”I asked him the big important question about anarchism: “when you draw a circle-A, do the lines break out of the circle or no?” He gave me the correct answer. “It doesn’t matter.”” www.tangledwilderness.org/features/ana...

Before you ask Google, or Siri, or Alexa, take a moment to think about the data farms that are destroying towns, generating heat, and using all the water. Is it really worth all that to just ask how to make sloppy joes?

Q: What requires more electricity than every home in Wisconsin combined and uses as much water in one day as thousands of families collectively use in a year? A: Data centers.

Its just so profoundly stupid that we have to spend all this energy relitigating whether or not fascism is good instead of putting all this effort towards trying to slow, stop, or even reverse the catastrophic damage to the ecosystem we all rely on being done by climate change.

I feel like we don't talk enough about how there are, according to BLS stats, simply fewer library workers than there were a decade ago. It isn't just attacks on libraries or pandemic aftermath lowering library org memberships. There are literally fewer of us.

As best as we can tell this morning—after terrorizing Back of the Yards, Border Patrol rolled through Cicero again (reports of potential abductions at the Metra station there, unclear on time, also vehicles seen at Cermak & Cicero) and then quickly up to this Home Depot at Cicero and Armitage:

“Indie film THE LIBRARIANS’ shines a light on women under fire in the U.S. book ban and DEI wars.” - @msmagazine.com In theaters THIS FRIDAY in the UK and October 3rd in the US. Get tickets now! msmagazine.com/2025/09/24/l...

Now, it's Italy and Spain that are sending navy ships to help protect the Gaza Sumud Flotilla bringing aid to Gaza! It's a relief. There's no need for Israel's drones bombing around this totally peaceful flotilla of boats carrying aid like medicine and food including BABY FORMULA! #Aid2Gaza

I can’t stress enough how just like you your immigrant neighbors are, even if they’re out of status

since a lot of ppl are discussing the ICE camp shooter's apparent lack of ideology, i would like to posit that online irony blackpill is absolutely an ideology with coherent tenets - the reason it appears incoherent is because this an ideology primarily defined by faithlessness, negative space

I wish more people understood that not all autism is visible, but all autism is disabling. If you don't see it, it's because we're actively hiding it. (Not for us, for others.) But hiding our autism means our needs are also invisible. And unmet needs = inner turmoil. 😣

When folks approach an intersection way too hot when you’re going through it. They’re going to stop but you dont know that. It just looks like they’re about to t-bone you and then they come to a hard stop 1/2 over the crosswalk.

Top tip to allies: Being seen to argue with LGBTQ ppl fighting for equal human rights is not a good look & is also catnip to bigots who rush to announce ‘they can’t agree amongst themselves’. Look at the post, identify what the main thrust is. If there’s an error DM the writer. If you disagree…

I assume that we won't get Surgeon General reports about the epidemic of white men shooting people and sociological studies about where their fathers are?

Once again listening to the loudest, grittiest dj sets very quietly on my shitty built-in work PC speaker. Making stank face at my desk. I know quiet storm refers to something completely different but it sounds right. Anyway if you would also like to office rave - www.mixcloud.com/LDJM/mike-de...

Please note that all the outlets now correcting their narrative re: ICE killing Silverio Villegas González since FPPD body cams have been released initially published the DHS statement now proven to be mostly false. There's never any understanding/admission of harm done. They'll just do it again.

ICE is up. Berwyn Cicero Rapid Response reports one person detained early this morning at 6:15, 49th & Cermak.
