Predicting that this week we’ll hear more conciliatory words from the Administration regarding Minnesota (since they’re starting to realize that ICE has become politically toxic) but everyone outside of Minnesota needs to know that nothing on the ground has changed.

In midtown, striking nurses are marching on Kathy Hochul’s office, calling out an emergency order she signed allowing traveling nurses to work in NY during the strike. They say that move has prolonged the strike and is a handout to the hospital system.

The City’s Budget is our future. And you deserve to know how it works.

Wild that there was an open lane called "what if we just explain things clearly to people?" and he's the first one to ever fill it

What is obvious to me is that a lot of people deeply care about their neighbors and this country. They didn't think we would. We do.

Dear Everybody, I love Ilahn Omar and she's worth a million former Proud Boys pretending to be police.

A reminder that ICE hasn’t slowed down in Minneapolis at all. Outside of Minnesota, it might feel like everything has changed since Alex Pretti’s murder. But ICE hasn’t actually lost any power and they’re continuing to terrorize our communities.

I'd like to take a step back from the debate of waiting until the midterms versus revolution to point out that both those options involve a tremendous amount of suffering for Minnesota between now and then. You should consider supporting the movements that are already growing within Minnesota

for me it was the fact that the author is one of the main driving forces behind the global movement to kill my trans friends and erase their existence hope that helps

Current status of the fundraisers for those killed by ICE: Renee Good: $1,499,580 Alex Pretti: $1,289,249 Keith Porter, Jr. $302,423 Parady La: $45,848 Heber Sanchez Dominguez: $47,991 Luis Beltrán Yanez Cruz: $18,640 Victor Manuel Diaz: $2,538 Geraldo Lunas: $2,260 Luis Gustavo Núñez: $1,935

just bc they (might) leave MN, doesn't mean we want our senators to capitulate on this funding -- too easy to see Schumer be like "Oh, they left, ok cool let's vote!" so let's all keep calling reps.fyi

My take away from what’s happening in Minneapolis is that it crushes the lie that people are by nature selfish. When the time calls for it, people can do astonishing things to keep their communities safe in the face of all odds.

🚨"We wonder why people in the 1930s were quiet, we need to show we weren't quiet. History is gonna look back at all the people that didn't show up—their grandkids are gonna ask what were they doing! It's like -10 degrees and we're here!" -Minneapolis ICE protester. LIVE NOW⬇️

They are never, ever going to win in Minnesota.

Absolutely love this analysis decimating Nolan's Odyssey and its default to ahistorical whiteness and Hollywood inaccuracy 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 youtu.be/iYhrW9d6DB8?...

My review of #TheVoiceofHindRajab for @butwhytho.net. Everyone needs to see this film. Free Palestine. butwhytho.net/2026/01/the-...

Guy who wears big dumb hat indoors has no taste. I for one am shocked

‘You cannot pass. I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the flame of Anor. You cannot pass. The dark fire will not avail you, flame of Udûn. Go back to the Shadow! You cannot pass.’

Empire does not operate in a vacuum. It requires willing and unwilling participants of its narratives, and greatly manipulates the latter. Be extremely discerning of any world event and how a narrative of it serves Empire. Be logical, and don't fall for vibes just to make yourself feel good.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

It’s the ALT that really brings the whole thing together.

A Department of Homeland Security whistleblower has released the identities of about 4,500 ICE and Border Patrol employees Tuesday in what has been called potentially the largest agency data breach for the department.

Many (insufferably entitled) adult Star Trek fans seem to forget that Star Trek is supposed to be for EVERYONE, including children. An episode you may hate is one a child may love and could end up sparking a lifelong love of the franchise. It’s one reason I’m so excited for Starfleet Academy.

The National Opera is leaving the Kennedy Center. How could it not? If your venue's new leadership goes out of its way to ban drag, there's no way it can be a host for opera. Opera's aesthetics are a key inspo for drag visuals, it has a huge queer following and a long tradition of gender-bending.

Minnesota authorities should go by the video evidence, interview the witnesses, and get a warrant to arrest the ICE agent themselves, then.

Spotify has DROPPED running ICE ads since the end of 2025 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 I'm personally still boycotting for their CEO's investments, but still, BOYCOTTS WORK www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

The Polygon sale was really fucked up and caused a lot of pain for a lot of great people but it is neat to see so many of them go on to make such awesome things kotaku.com/mothership-i...

Honestly not in the mood for defeatists who take no action EVER today.

For hundreds of years, the west's colonialist play, very often to their success, has been "divide and conquer." Ethnonationalism plays very directly into that play, splitting apart united and strong nations worldwide. They've now done it in Syria, and are trying to do it in Iran. Stay wary.

It should not have taken the murder of a woman who looks like you for you to finally come to this point.

The scale of the protests in Iran are absolutely unbelievable. Hard to quantify, but I've seen some speculation that this uprising is more significant than the 2023 protests (themselves the largest challenge to the regime since it came into power in '79.) (Video from @AmirMiresmaeili on Twitter)

It’s amazing that this needs to be repeated ad nauseam. But what’s happening now, happened during Jim Crow, Happened during the fight for labor organizing and the 8 hour work day in the 19th century happens every time a stop and frisk of a Black/brown person goes wrong Like Mikki said

I feel a way about being asked to take advice from how to process the death of a woman murdered trying make sure her neighbors didn’t disappear .. six blocks from where a Black man was compressed to death From people who can’t speak up when every Black person around them is fired or pushed out

If there’s ever been a time in history to educate yourself, it’s now. We’re living through a modern war against intelligence and literacy.

Because of the lack of black and brown people in it.

I’ve finally gotten to the part of my Star Trek rewatch where I’ve started DS9. I missed this show so freaking much.

Dammit, I totally just realized what Captain Seven’s command thing should be: “Warp may now commence.”

The biggest reason I want to seize control of the entertainment industry is so I can make dreams like CJA’s come true.

I just gotta say that “Ode to Spot” is the single greatest moment in all of TNG.

As the president graffitis his name to beloved institutions and builds monuments to his own vanity, we must focus on how much fun it will be to tear it all down. trib.al/iSSkej1

If Andreas Katsulas hadn’t died, I have no doubt he would have returned as Tomalak in Picard. What an epic that would have been…

Everyone knows about Ahmed al-Ahmad, the Syrian Muslim migrant who took down one gunman. Another man, a Middle Eastern refugee, ran into a firefight and kicked the gun away from the other gunman. Police shot him, and bystanders kicked him in the head while he was down, thinking he was the terrorist.

For the price Netflix paid for WB, we could have had seven seasons of Raising Dion, Sense8, I Am Not Okay With This, Anne With an E, Gentified, Age of Resistance, Dead Boy Detectives, The Brothers Sun, Shadow and Bone, Santa Clarita Diet, Warrior Nun, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, First Kill…

Mamdani: Oftentimes when we win elections, we tell people to go home and just trust us. But the message really has to be that we want you to come along with us… That’s something we’ve been looking to share with New Yorkers: We want to not only win with New Yorkers, but also govern with New Yorkers.
