Jane Don’t is important representation for the big ass big mouth community 👊

The rapid embrace of betting on every single aspect of culture, when combined with the financialization of every other part of life? Mama that’s how systems collapse

One of the biggest fuck ups of this administration is that they cannot begin to comprehend why someone would show kindness to a stranger w/o expecting something in return. A weapon of kindness will always defeat one of cruelty.

1. It was not an accident. 2. It was not a staffer. 3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia. 4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

I genuinely think less of you if you make one of those AI cartoons.

Did I ever mention that we got stickers and that $1 from each sale goes towards the Immigrant Law Center of MN? Shirts are going out this week! #abolishice

Pedro Pascal has paid tribute to Catherine O’Hara after her tragic passing “Oh, genius to be near you. Eternally grateful. There is less light in my world, this lucky world that had you, will keep you, always. Always ❤️ The one and ONLY Catherine O’Hara”

Minneapolis should press its momentum and demand not only withdrawal but start talking about the need for immediate reparations, loudly, with the total certainty that only winners have. "You have wronged us terribly and must pay recompense" and let them argue the second part.

Thread with vetted mutual aid fundraisers. Rent support is especially important: many neighbors have been forced to shelter in place during the occupation.

Over 1,600 evictions have been filed throughout Minnesota from January 1 through January 23. Filings for January rent have increased dramatically in the past week. February rent is due soon. It is still extremely dangerous for our neighbors to be out in public.

It’s Day 56 of the ICE occupation of MSP. We are still a community deeply in mourning. But we are also deeply grateful for the way people around the country and around the world are standing with us.

Yooooo, here’s some history for everyone that I personally was a part of

I don't keep doomers in my feed but since apparently some folks do: "celebrate each and every win, loudly" is Organizing 101

Again, if you haven’t yet, you really need to get off of TikTok. I greatly miss my feed of trends, silly memes, and dance challenges but my privacy and safety are worth far more.

This is important work from the Strib: www.startribune.com/federal-agen...

A 23 year old larping as a journalist made a misleading and inaccurate YouTube video that the administration full of chronically online shitposters used to justify the “largest immigration operation ever” and now someone is dead

ICE agents are America's failures, basically indistinguishable from lazy school shooters, losers who want to play Call of Duty on our streets against people who can't fight back. They have unlimited ammo and toss tear gas like they're pressing L1. They have to be defunded and jailed. All of them.

“Everyone should be allowed to carry a gun for their safety but the government can murder you in the street if you have a gun” is an incredible endpoint for the conservative moment

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.

There’s video of them ICE murder that just happened in Minneapolis. 5 agents wrestling a man to the ground. A shot goes off and then an agent pulls and fires multiple times into the man as he lays there. It’s so fucked. So so fucked.

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.

Really, really recommend that Minnesotans in particular disable autoplay, I know it's annoying to have to click to see a GIF but it's not worth the mental health costs of seeing the first seconds (before you scroll by) of murders in our city over and over and over.

I think it probably is important to know that this was many outnumbered 9:1 being beaten on the ground before he was shot. Not in a car. Not running. ICE will likely come up with some reason why they were afraid for their lives. But you don't need to watch.

My Judy @jakerudy.bsky.social took this KICK-ASS picture of someone carrying the Minnesota state flag during the protest in downtown Minneapolis yesterday and he let me edit it.

I shouldn’t have to think this every day about our taxpayer funded gov accounts

Write and produce a musical named BASS just to eventually make a bass pro shot happen

My loose info so far is that the Minneapolis General Strike today had about 80 unions sign on, and it might be one of the biggest labor actions in decades depending on your definition

This story is people telling their stories in their own words and it's really great. I finally took the time to read the whole thing late last night and had a good cry. Anyway. No paywall on it today. Read it if you want to know what things are like here through the eyes of people living it. ❤️

Nothing but respect for my president Kenya Pleaser #dragrace

Minnesota is the best of us.

The funniest shit is that I feel like the huge turnout downtown is almost because of the cold not in spite of it. The fact that it’s -10 degrees out led to just more defiance, like thousands out there saying, it isn’t even that bad out.

It is -9 degrees without windchill. I have retreated to the Skyway. But the streets are full and they keep coming. There have been larger protests but I can’t think of that’s been more hazardous to bare skin.

The park behind the building on the right was also just as full! Fascism cannot take Minnesota anymore than the darkness can cover the North Star. The darker it is, the brighter we’ll shine
