sure the us is sliding into authoritarianism but on the other hand, south korea is completely paralyzed by dubai chocolate fever. in a couple of weeks they went from dubai chocolate chewy cookie to dubai chocolate raw amberjack fish to dubai chocolate grilled short ribs

Killing the CIA World Factbook might seem like small potatoes, but it was a touchstone of curated facts in a sea of disinformation.

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME

OMG. He literally went with "they were no angels" which is the mocking phrase people use to point out how authorities try to minimize their law enforcement executions. And he's using it earnestly because he doesn't realize how it's actually used.

100% yes -- Homan signaled a shift in the suburbs, and it was to (more) aggression towards observers, (more) stalking kids at bus stops, (more) lurking on school grounds.

This guy directly threatened to murder me and my friends while he was working with Andy Ngo. If people want to talk about how we shouldn’t use opsec? Look at this Nazi monster.

If this chant somehow broke out in a WWE crowd, fucking HHH's music would hit and he would legit start tear-gasing the first few front rows.

🚨 Munitions inventory leaked to me shows Border Patrol is stockpiling over 35,000 weapons in Minneapolis for crowd control. Full inventory here: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/in-ices-wa...

The CIA just stopped publishing their World Factbook and took every page, including the archived copies of previous versions! This sucks. It was public domain, so I recovered the 2020 edition (the last one published as a zip file) and shared it to GitHub […]

new blog post about: makin' it easier to integrate elaborate (or not) contextual character animation stuff into gameplay in @sleightofhand.game. Like all the best shit, this is not so much technically impressive as workflowily excellent. www.joewintergreen.com/contextual-a...

"Pat, why do you carry that ridiculous 600mm lens on long hikes?" Buddy, I can see mountains reflected in the eyes of a trailside pika.

i’m telling you today, in early february, right now: if you are concerned that there will be electoral shenanigans this year in all of the elections leading to the general in november right now find your local county democratic party office and tell them you want to be a trained poll watcher now

I understand folks are scared but I want you to think about the mechanics of this. There are more polling places (>100k) than ICE and CBP agents combined, so they can only pick a few districts to try to intimidate. Now what happens when cell phone footage of that goes online in the early morning?

Here’s the worst part about my name being in the Epstein Files: He didn’t even email his friend MY article. He emailed an aggregation of my article with my name in it. It's one thing to be the world's most evil pedophile, but at least read primary source materials when doing non-pedophile stuff.

It was only a matter of time before the pro wrestling fans of Bluesky and the Star Trek Deep Space 9 fans of Bluesky looked at each other and realized that 90% of their interests overlap

🚨🚨DC residents + ppl w. members of Congress- ACTION ALERT: Trump Republicans in Congress are trying to mess with DC's budget. This is an attack on DC's autonomy & would impact DC's poorest kids and families. @freedcproject.bsky.social Make calls now! Script below docs.google.com/document/d/1...

unbelievably grim to see Valve announce a delightful and exciting compact Linux box approximately 15 seconds before RAM became the more expensive material in the known universe.

I have zero bandwidth to develop the idea, but the last decade has given rise to a gulliblity style, where a source’s statement is treated as the story regardless of whether it’s true or plausible. It creates stories that are technically true but functionally misinformation. You see it everywhere.

O Bad Bunny fez o primeiro disco latino número 1 na China e o mundo às vezes é muito legal

🚨 New: We built a visual tracker of the warehouses ICE is targeting across the US. Working off an idea from @actualkatherine.bsky.social, we’ve mapped active searches, canceled deals, and linked state property records. Explore the map here: tinyurl.com/ICEWarehouse...

NEW: The Justice Department unit responsible for pursuing potential wrongdoing by law enforcement, including during the crackdown in Minneapolis, has lost two-thirds of its prosecutors and is under orders to scale back its investigations of excessive force. www.reuters.com/world/justic...

The old view was that lawsuits create change by making precedent. Fuck that. You know how lawsuits prevent harm now? By being so fucking annoying to deal with.

This is one reason I keep trying to remind people of the power that we have. That we have *always* had. Not because I’m in denial, but because I know history. I’m no sophisticated intellectual, but I do know we’re going to win even though the bad shit is really terrible right now.

My actual job description is activist and here’s what I tell people in despair all the time: do not underestimate how much harm you can prevent by being just a little bit annoying.

The GOP has offered nothing this century except for catastrophic wars. No healthcare plan; no re-industrialization. Now they're losing their only issue, immigration, as people see the violence and havoc that comes with mass deportations.

They’re screaming “fuck ice” at wrestling matches and Chuck Schumer managed to use this leverage to negotiate against himself until the demand is “ here’s a bunch more money, can you guys please promise to not wear masks unless you really need to?”

This is why it's very important, believe it or not, to keep doing things that make you happy. Their goal is to immiserate you, me, and everyone remotely like us, and if you retain some joy in your life amid all this misery they're failing.

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

Been working on a piece for a while (and he just...tweeted it out) about this as the far-right version of the Cultural Revolution. They have no constructive goal, just a drive to make every "intellectual" suffer. If they could send everyone with a BA to Qinghai (Montana) to dig ditches, they would.

I knew they were lying when they claimed to have survived being attacked by a Minnesotan armed with a snow shovel.

Dumas' FATHER was born to a French count and an enslaved African women in Haiti. The Père was then brought to France, was educated, served in the military, etc. "The Black Count" is a fantastic book about him. His son is the author Alexander Dumas, and he based Count of Monte Cristo on his Dad.🇭🇹

goddamnit

A gut punch with today's ICE Air flight at MSP - I thought we were going to make it the whole day without a flight for the first time since January 5th, but one popped up this evening. 66 detainees boarded today - the most we've seen in the last ten days. 3,137 are represented on this graph.

* US Companies Announce Most Job Cuts for Any January Since 2009 @bloomberg.com

Trump's constant degradation of female reporters is unsurprising but the press corps' collective decision to treat it as background noise is actually kind of sickening

Bluesky is that special place where someone will take time out from serialposting about how ICE can never defeat one mid sized midwesern city to post about how ICE is going to commandeer every voting booth in the US and all is lost

Oh my GOD, the White House copied our ad but made it completely deranged. The Nazi slop factory is all out of ideas! SAD!

This is another effort that has taken a HUGE amount of local activism, led by community folks who care. It CAN be done. Get involved where you live and push back. www.elpasotimes.com/story/news/i...

Wow! What sounded like the entire AEW Dynamite audience in Las Vegas tonight chanted "Fuck ICE! Fuck ICE!" in unison before the main event

This gets at something deeper: The role of shame and social stigma for those who participate in Trump-Miller's sadistic ethnonationalist project. As I argue in the piece this is clearly showing up now as warehouse buyers are shamed into nixing any sale to ICE:

they had a window of maybe three months to really solidify a cultural shift and that was gone by spring of last year

anyway i know how many of you hate that i’m so vocal about this and think it makes me a naive shitlib or whatever. but again, i think the best thing you could do for yourself here is to get involved in election administration where you live.
