Every person on Bluesky should know: * Every post on Bluesky is PUBLIC forever * Every post on Bluesky is archived by ICE, NSA, and many other agencies * Even if you delete a post, it’s already been captured * Judges don’t care if you were “kidding” or being ironic www.404media.co/the-200-site...

Saying there must be trials isn't just an emotive aspiration. Congress can: - Create a new court (complying w/ 6A jury vicinage) - Give it jurisdiction over defined category of crimes - Also create dedicated prosecutors for the same - Strip SCOTUS of appellate jurisdiction It can be done.

Name them. Shame them.

Illinois you really gotta do something about @durbin.senate.gov too

Worse than Kent State, really than any episode I can think of probably dating back to Reconstruc & earlier b/c 1. continuing, not 1 off. 2. organized, not individual ofcrs losing it 3. literally at hand of federal government, which is 4. immediately lying & circling the wagons to prevent inves.

Solidarity, particularly across race and class, is Kryptonite for authoritarian regimes. They can only thrive when their us v. them framing is adopted by society at large, and they join as active or passive collaborators with the regime. So the only response they have is to raise the cost of unity

I also watched the video. This is an accurate description. It’s traumatizing, and you should feel free to avoid it if it’s too much. Just know it happened and act accordingly.

Four-time Grammy Award nominee Jesse Welles performs his song "Join Ice." Bob Dylan once said a single folk singer could defeat an entire army. Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have our man.

Minnesota is the best of us.

“and then our goons will kidnap that life and send it to a concentration camp if we deem them the wrong color”

TODAY IS THE DAY!!!! Minnesotans are bringing a halt to business as usual - no work, no shopping, no school - to demand ICE OUT. If you're not in Minnesota, support their demands and find an event near you here: iceoutforgood.org

I think it's important to boost news of the general strike in Minneapolis today and it's possible to do it without the hyperbole that nobody in the media is covering it It may not be getting the attention it deserves! Posting links to reported stories is one way to combat that!

January 23rd — General strike in Minnesota. All profits from the shirt will support the actions against ICE in Minneapolis and elsewhere. cottonbureau.com/p/MAASGQ/shi...

To sum up, most executives (gaming or otherwise) lack taste and are so egotistical as to not realize it. They also lack the vocabulary to articulate theirs needs. That’s my TED Talk.

Do you like pins? Do you like games? Well then you're going to love this campaign! Back the campaign and you can get pins based on the chararacters from nearly 20 different games, including Fantasy Food Fight. It launches in just 2 days so follow it now. www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti...

Genuinely useful, paradigm shifting technology should largely be able to sell itself. The fact that they're desperately trying to find ways to get people to adopt it as they hemorrhage money says everything you need to know.

We have made the decision to formally close our X social media account. Once a vibrant platform to promote the interests of authors, we feel X is no longer a trusted place for balance, community support, and reliable information.

Look, there are two things killing bookstores, and neither one is ebooks. One is rent. The other is *waves hands vaguely* everything costing too damn much.

JF: sending rays of hope to the people of Minneapolis. So wrong, so weird. Stay strong!

“I can’t think of a single instance in which he tried to calm tempers. He only speaks in one key, and that key is division.”

Fine have your little trial but if I’m going down I’m going to give you a reason. Good luck finding all your little Nazi buddies again.

MAGA, a movement of cynical cruelty that is fueled by atomization, has accidentally created the conditions for in person communities to be formed around resisting their repression bsky.app/profile/aaro...

ICE is younger than the Taco Bell chalupa and about the same age as the Crunchwrap supreme and contributes far less to society than either!

This is Maybelline. She was found as a stray, struggling to breathe. Born with an elongated soft palate and abnormal sinuses that cause severe swelling, she has never been able to take a full breath. Surgery will give her that chance. You can help her below ❤️‍🩹 1510.fan/maybelline-bsd

It would be a damn shame if someone were to put all those leaked ICE names on the No Fly list. I mean some database guy out there must be sorely tempted to do it and they should RESIST.

This.

This. I am done returning to the status quo of what got us here. I want universal healthcare. I want a maximum wage tied to the minimum wage. I want omnipresent, cheap public transit and walkable neighborhoods. I want Supreme Court and police reform, and I want the rich to pay their fair share.

The UK, Canada and Australia are considering banning X. And yet, the progressive movement and Democratic Party still haven’t figured out how to boycott it.

This guy is in Minneapolis standing before an American citizen in an SUV. The only reason he's brandishing an assault rifle is because he wants the people he's purportedly there protecting to feel terrorized by his presence. This is not protection. This is occupation.

Democrats will continue to vote for Republican judges (like this guy, who refused to say who won the 2020 election) until Democrats are punished for voting for Republican judges

In my other life, I'm an experienced creative director and branding expert. I'm offering a fixed-price brand audit service for small gaming companies who are looking to set themselves up for success. Take a look if that seems like something you'd be interested in. www.adada.com/brandingforg...

Noem saying Ross acted "according to his training" is a blinking red light. Any investigative effort from those with subpoena power needs to press on ICE permitting early resort to lethal force. @lilahassan.bsky.social's reporting is crucial & acknowledges it may be out of date:

I'm currently rewatching "The Peripheral" on Amazon. What a damn shame that we only got one season. Great performances. Amazing story from @greatdismal.bsky.social. The idea of "The Jackpot" seems more relevant everyday. Well worth a watch or a read.

Pitchforks for any Democrat talking about reaching across the aisle and hauling out “when they go low we go high” or “we need a strong Republican Party.”

No I will not go to the child porn generator run by a man who consigned millions of of the global sick to their deaths

Clarity, @aoc.bsky.social speaks with clarity

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

"You gonna murder someone else? You can't kill us all, Nazis."

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists. Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election. Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot. It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

The irony of getting a fundraising email from "Resistance PAC" authored by Liz Cheney is fucking too much. Unsubscribe.

The Trump administration caused seismic disruptions to the world's premier scientific superpower in 2025 go.nature.com/4qjlBmK

I'm here to tell you that this is generational levels of damage. Generational in that it will take a generation or two to fix the damage. Some damage will be unrecoverable, and that makes us all lesser. This is not making America "great"... This is a self-inflicted wound that is mortal to many.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, could you please establish an official NYC Mayor account on Bluesky and post everything your office is currently posting on X over here? And please remove all city accounts from X, which has become a CSAM creation and distribution site? No money for Musk, ever, please.

No. No. No. Punitive processes make narrowly targeted programs *less* efficient and *more* costly. Because more scrutiny requires more bureaucracy. Punitive processes also make it *less* likely that people will get aid for which they qualify. Because of the roadblocks and stigma scrutiny creates.

Trump knows what he did is impeachable. He's daring Congress to impeach him. The more Democrats in particular dither, the more powerful he becomes, and he knows it.
