I have a friend who has been sending me ICE updates from the Twin Cities and "false spring" resonates so hard...

Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%. (Published Feb. 2025)

Anyone have any dirt on Written?

I would like to note, for those who didn't click, that the editor in question is this man—Chris Quinn—not the young woman reporter he chose to make the face of this braindead screed. Just so y'all channel your critiques at the correct face.

This is Lil Cat. She’s in Mendocino. A little shy. VERY sweet. 8 years old. And was well loved. Can anyone give her a soft spot to land? That face! If not, can you share? www.mendocinohumane.org#sl_embed&pag...

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

If you walk into a man’s apartment and you don’t see ANY books, pick up your pussy and LEAVE!!! Go back outside!!!

The full video made me tear up. How lovely. I love how Mayor Mamdani and his team highlight and celebrate the wide swath of city services by going to where the work is happening and participating in it. Yes, public services can be difficult and slow sometimes, but the still matter so much every day.

Trump does not have a Plan for white people ... he doesn't want anything for you he doesn't hope anything for you He doesn't believe anything for you He wants you to hate everyone else so you don't have to build anything

You don't make things better for White people by making things worse for everyone else .

But there has not been a single thing that Trump has done in 13 months in office that has made things better for white people

Every time I see this story, it makes me furious anew. I lived in Seattle a long time and the cops (like cops everywhere) have always been unmitigated assholes, many of whom don’t live in the city, so aren’t actually neighbors and just see citizens as nuisances. This woman deserved so much better.

2/11/2026 - Virginia Beach, VA Vehicles with clearly marked "ICE" decals going door to door Residents in MN reported vehicles like this would move through a neighborhood to attract legal observers, while unmarked vehicles would circle through behind them and kidnap residents Be mindful

just a reminder that the united states is essentially operating a network of torture camps holding individuals in arbitrary detention, without access to appeal and rarely to counsel.

Snagged a coveted couch spot in the Istanbul airport’s main mall section, so we’re winning at life.

i love european olympics opening ceremonies. the second the ioc names a european host city the prime minister calls the culture minister into their office and says "find me your strangest homosexuals. give each of them a period of our great nation's history, a kilo of cocaine, and Ten Million Euros"

And wonderful to see the staff at the albatross center taking such good care of them. Here, egg-weighing time. Which gives you a sense of scale for these massive, beautiful birds.

I do not want America to be Great. I do not want Venezuela, Greenland, Alberta in particular, or Canada in general. I do not want anyone deported (no, not even the worst of the worst). I do not want a golden White House, a spacious ballroom, or a concrete Rose Garden. I want America to be better.

Protesters wanted to draw attention to the detention of a 5-year-old boy from the Minneapolis area at the Texas ICE facility. They were met by state troopers who used pepper spray to disperse the crowd.

This or just dumping people *in the woods* AND sending folks out w/o their phone or I.D. Volunteers w/ Safe Haven wait at the gate & do sweeps of the woods, with warm clothes, a burner, and a ride home, "so no one is left alone at the gate." I donated; pls join me if you can: gofund.me/7d506a3d0

I'm reupping this so that folks can see the various orgs in Minnesota/Minneapolis that you can help.. will also be posted to my Substack later today! Thanks to everyone who sent a source!

Brushed some snow off posters and came back with flowers. In Arlington, Virginia.

Worth remembering that they all lied in their original reports because they had no idea Holliday was filming them

I remain absolutely furious that all this shit in Minneapolis started because a barely-literate homeschooled mormon made a video trying to run up in daycare centers trying to find people of Somalian descent doing fraud despite the ringleader (a white woman) being in jail since March. Demonic.

Stanley Hauerwas has a bit that the sacrifice we ask of soldiers is not actually to die but to kill.

January is almost over and there have only been 3 homicides in Minneapolis so far this year 2 of them were committed by ICE agents.
