Let me tell you a tale of how completely the normies have been mobilized. My 14 year-old niece has done School of Rock for the past 5 years; last summer she was part of their touring band, and the kids loved playing together so much that they decided to keep doing it. (1/?)

the key to defeating fascism is virtue signaling, as early as possible, that you will vote for Fascism Lite

that the incident has been verified by this news article (links) that gives the victim’s name, backstory and location. This is important information—not least because nobody on BlueSky seems be connecting it with the CCTV footage. The action is all the more damaging for being better substantiated.

This city is home to people of countless faiths. But no matter what you believe, one thing unites us: we are all New Yorkers. We will not allow ICE to terrorize our neighbors. youtu.be/uoU9Img_B40

One of the most basic tenets of election security is to avoid creating a Single Point of Failure (SPF). Unfortunately, it appears that SCOTUS created a potential SPF by sanctioning DOGE’s access to SSA databases, which are now a key component of Trump’s voter purge election strategy. 1/

The ‘Arc de Trump’ has yet to be built but already Americans are looking forward to its demolition before a wildly-cheering crowd

The acting director of ICE told Congress, under oath, that local law enforcement in Colorado leaked raid plans, allowing gang members to escape. After 9NEWS questioned ICE's claim and its timeline, ICE deleted the claim from its social media platforms.

Time to dust off a classic

back in '89 when the wall fell and then the USSR dissolved some of us had these same thoughts. Then the Iraqi psyop conveniently happened. They want it all and will destroy the rest if they don't get it.

Here is an excellent Bluesky account that I've been following since the Twitter days. Take a good long look at what the Texas Rangers did to Black, Brown, and Native people to make this place "safe for whites" bsky.app/profile/refu...

What a brilliant observation.

Shock around Rubio speech seems a variation of same delusion that led legacy media to inaccurately declare it a softer touch, as if Rubio, a Latino man who once disputed Trumpism, is an alternative voice. He’s not. He joined fascism; now he’s a fascist; he gave a fascist speech, because fascism.

The imperialism of high technocracy equals the old racist imperialism in its arrogance; to the technophile, people who aren't in the know/in the net, who don't have the right artifacts, don't count. They're proles, masses, faceless nonentities. -Ursula K LeGuin, 'Fisherman of the Inland Sea', 1994

The U.S. government used the term concentration camps to describe the sites of captivity, some quickly built, that Japanese Americans were incarcerated in during the 1940s. Debates about warehousing immigrants *and* citizens or calling it concentration camp could better attend to this U.S. history.

The ultimate, hidden truth of the world is that it is something that we make, and could just as easily make differently. David Graeber

with alt text, because everyone needs to be able to read this 😭

so, "Actual video exposes truth but AI manipulations cloud the truth" might be more accurate framing

It's true these spaces are only being used this way because of a noxious combination of money being no object and safety not being on the list of priorities. But on a deeper level, Sarah is right. Every time we're told something "can't" be done it only means they're not willing.

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.

Brilliantly succinct. And just what do you think AI, robotics, automation etc, is all about? Slaves without flesh. wait, what's this? the human part of this still exists but is now remote, overseas, locked in a warehouse ?? oh....

Christ on a bike, this is brilliant. And disgustingly historically accurate. 10/10

Today is the last reasonable day for travel to/from the Sierra until at least Wednesday PM, potentially Friday. Even along the shoreline of Lake Tahoe, 3-4 ft of snow is expected. The weather service warns of MAJOR travel impacts Monday and EXTREME impacts Tuesday. Drive during today's sunshine.

The Rubio speech really is appalling, and if you haven’t read it yet, you should. www.state.gov/releases/off...

i would not say this to this man today, or to his face, because i don't know him; yet of course this is who we are. the American project is founded in genocide and anti-blackness, and eventually he should be made aware of that.

James Baldwin said, “To study the economic structure of this country, to know which hands control the wealth, and to which end, seems an academic exercise—and yet it is necessary, all of it is necessary.” And as Ruth Wilson Gilmore said about the money, "Really follow it––not pretend to follow it."

a wonderful day to celebrate resistance to colonialism. A monument to James Cook still stands at Kealakekua Bay, just as colonialism still continues by the United States in Hawai'i today

On this day in 1779, James Cook is killed by Kanakas as he attempted to kidnap Kalaniʻōpuʻu, an aliʻi nui of the island of Hawaii. anticolonialhistory.com/event/20/

there’s a longer version here in which our hero follows up by telling him “you can go peacefully fuck yourself” after he claims to be “peacefully standing for my beliefs”

Is it really going to snow in the Bay Area next week? 🧵 The coldest air mass since 2023 is forecast to move over the region Tuesday & Wednesday, dropping the freezing level below 3,000 feet. Snow can fall 500 to 1,000 feet below the freezing level and heavy showers can temporarily drag it lower.
