March happening now in NYC in solidarity with Minneapolis following the ICE killing of legal observer Renee Nicole Good.

“Renee Nicole Good!” March in NYC chants in solidarity with Minneapolis following the ICE killing of legal observer Renee Nicole Good. Estimated 800-1000 attendees, with march circling 26 Federal Plaza where ICE operates before dispersing. More actions tomorrow at 8am and 9:30am at Foley Square.

Don't believe the lies DHS are telling you. A DHS agent murdered someone in Minneapolis today. Video shows that the driver was leaving the scene. DHS agents lie in court. They lie in press releases. They are trained to dehumanize you and treat you like a criminal for filming them.

"what are we going to do with 20,000 ICE agents if we abolish ice" well to start with I think we should all literally spit on them in public for the rest of their lives

There is so much regrettable nonsense that emerged from r/atheism (most notably that it was basically just a stalking horse for mainstreaming Islamophobia) but a personal pet peeve is that it’s convinced so many that the Jesus mythicist position is treated seriously in academia

Maslow's triangle meme where the needs are dick from a boy who's goofy and songs where Hozier is wailing incoherently

if you ask me all fruits come from trees. anything that grows on the ground is grass. walnuts are fruit. strawberries are grass. olives aren't real either

I would just like to say that, as an American citizen, I do not believe that "fostering an environment that is good for investors" is something I would ever like the FDA to prioritize. In fact I think it should be illegal for them to even consider it.

i made a Morrowind mod that makes Fargoth slightly curvier

we've got some ICE shit going down in our little town today and it took like three minutes for a convoy of wine moms to start chasing them around town. normies hate this shit and are putting in the work

people think moby dick is a stern adventure novel heavy on the plot. i can't emphasize how much it's not. it's supergay chaos with 3 plot points. there's an entire chapter that's just a chowder recipe. sometimes it turns into a play. the main character is covered in whale dinension tattoos.

I deleted an earlier post praising Hilton for stating that ICE agents were not welcome. Hilton states "This hotel is independently owned and operated, and the actions referenced are not reflective of Hilton values.” Well, telling ICE to get lost reflects my values.

Once again, I love living in Russia!

On the other side of this, afaik every hotel ICE/CBP was confirmed to have stayed at in the Chicago area was a Marriott property.

absolutely unprecedented levels of pettiness

disgusting. shutter the rags.

Incredibly funny that this is the closest Matty Yglesias will ever get to admitting he was wrong about American empire. “Looks like that leftist was right. Like a fucking IDIOT”

A shitpost so great Billy Joel actually heard about it

A really sad follow-up to this story — Alexis Erlinmeyer, one of the trans federal intelligence workers who was fired, has died of a pulmonary embolism. She was 31. Her family is burying her under her deadname, so friends are fundraising for an accurate memorial: www.gofundme.com/f/in-memory-...

There will not be a monolithic response from Venezuelans. Why would there be? Folks can acknowledge this while still speaking to the illegal regime change led by the fascist regime here in the U.S.

Porn and erotica are important and societally valuable forms of speech, and the defense of them, in the face of state and church attempts at repression, is a necessary political act.

For people that feel helpless, this period is so tough but there's ways to help for anyone. Go out there support Venezuelan ppl and artists living in it as they prepare for unpredictable times Here is a starter pack of artists with commissions or donations open as well: go.bsky.app/8daQmpX

Also, you can find people celebrating literally anyone being removed, and you can find people who are devastated. Part of the reason it's bad to foist regime change on a country is that "I talked to several dudes and they were down" is no justification

I love living in Russia

"something's gotten into the animals" happy year of the horse

If any other countries want to form a coalition and remove the US president from power, the good people of the US will welcome you. Just fyi

It’s time for the world to Boycott, Divest and Sanction the U.S Avoid the Olympics, World Cup and other sporting events. There’s no reason to celebrate the 250 birthday of this fallen nation

lol lmfao

Yes, it’s on the nose, but I will remind you that this is about children, who have no say in any of this, and if I see any public health people doing easy dunks I’m gonna start kicking you all in the nuts

The moderate position is indeed The Hague

The world must boycott the World Cup and the Olympics. It is both the only moral choice and will actually get the attention of these dead-eyed clout demons.

One thing I wrote about here is how technology has made buses *way* more convenient while techno-futurists were obsessed with flying taxis and self-driving cars.

I do agree with the core thesis here - Mamdani doesn’t really have some other ambition he is known to be beholden to and it opens up a lot more space to actually accomplish something which probably triggers both the oligarchs & the strivers

Верни мне мой 2007!

Replaces all your blood with cottage cheese.

In this in-depth interview Billie Jean Sweeney — a former editor at The New York Times — details how the paper shifted towards openly promoting anti-trans hatred, why this was directed from the very top, how some staff pushed back and the immense damage done by the NYT legitimizing bigotry.

Immediately executable policies that can meaningfully address actual harms experienced by the public as brought up by the campaign they chose to elect, this magical concept that has been so alien to Democratic politics: absent even from the highly-lauded standard-bearing Obama administration.

There exists in the law a concept called "disparate impact." It's one of the most important aspects of the kind of law I practice, and it's been under attack by the right for decades. This is a gross oversimplification, but disparate impact is something like this:

I think this is perfectly accurate and cops should keep using it actually

pound for pound this might be the funniest thing ever written

When I was in Moscow without proper documents and the hotel I'd booked wouldn't take me, this random barber (so he introduced himself) spent like an hour and a half walking around with me, around midnight, looking for another hotel until finally a friend said I could stay with her and I got a taxi

Embarrassing to die and not take at least one person with you, even if it’s just a hospice nurse

King shit honestly

The Second-Order Streisand Effect is a social phenomenon where if a party makes an effort to censor information, discussion and news about the censorship paradoxically leads to an increased awareness of Barbara Streisand, a musician whom most "Zoomers" would probably have otherwise never heard of

Please keep helping through the winter!
