okay fellow white people, they're doing this because they believe this will appease us and it can't the only way forward is the dissolving of the agency totally fuck them abolish ice is the ONLY way forward

wait they removed Bovino? maximum respect to the people of Minneapolis: you did this. power to the people forever

Discworld QOTD, from Witches Abroad

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Got my physical copy of The Protomen's Act III. Very much looking forward to sitting down to listen to it with the liner notes in hand (the way the gods and Panther intended it).

God DAMN that is a refreshing take.

There are almost 900 games submitted to the No ICE in Minnesota charity bundle game jam with 8 days left to join! Thank you all so much for spreading the word and joining the bundle to support Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota 🖤

I've also updated my goal Ko-Fi - this takes precedent above all other bills and needs right now ko-fi.com/alaskanime/g...

Human artists, use only one piece to convince people to follow you

New: we've obtained material explaining how an ICE surveillance system, called Webloc, works. Draw shape on a map, see all phones available there, follow them home. All without warrant “This is a very dangerous tool in the hands of an out-of-control agency.” www.404media.co/inside-ices-...

It feels frivolous to post about with everything happening, but I recent wrote about why I listen to @themountaingoats.bsky.social song This Year every New Years (after midnight, not before). If you need a survival anthem for right now, I have a suggestion... blog.chrislegge.com/if-it-kills-...

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.

Someone here said that you owe it to yourself and to America to watch the murder video, to see what they're doing in your name. You actually don't. You don't need to do that. Not even if you actually are American. I am yer auld Da and I give you permission not to do that

losing my mind at the "she should have followed directions" people really? really? you're cool with "if you don't follow directions, they get to kill you"? that seems like a good state of affairs to you? that seems like how law enforcement ought to work: instant obeisance or death?

Yes, for sure. It's not that they *aren't* scared. It's that such a fear is a product of an ideological project. A project that gives cops carte blanche to transmute fear into violence, and which convinces people who should love their neighbors to instead fear them enough to excuse those cops.

And they’ll say they can’t be held accountable because when they pulled the trigger they were afraid for their lives. Their lives which they spent serving an ideology of fear, a machine of fear, a holistic regime of fear. A culture-spanning engine of the ugliest and most dishonest fears there are.

We're the baddies.

When you get the reputation of being the guy with the encouraging words on New Year's Eve, it can start to come through as a little pressure -- what if the situation on the ground is worse than usual? what if people are more scared than they usually are, and with cause? what use are good vibes then?

Together!

Happy new year. We go again! youtu.be/2Se76S0XH-I?...

There is an assignment my first photo teacher gave out: "Essence of a Person" I couldn't make a better accidental essence of me this year than a dried out fountain pen next to an empty migraine med packet (which is then put back together with a coffee sticker). Don't let the door hit you 2025.

Very honored to be included in this list!

Happy Hogswatch to all who celebrate. Ho! Ho! Ho!

Well, it's that time of year again...

We all know what Trump is up to. He's trying to use the military to squash descent. And Alaska's lapdog governor is right there with him. #comic #cartoon #Trump #DC #nationalguard #alaska

Anyway time to post this again. AI is a tool of fascism.

*taps the sign*

The last meme you saved is your moral philosophy. Unfortunately, it's kinda accurate....

Enjoy a moment of reprieve from all of the everything else with this bundle of 39 solo tabletop rpgs. Cool games! Cool designers! Different worlds to get lost in! itch.io/b/3361/sprin...

I hope the Baileys corporealize like a pair of tulpas and devour him

Putting the scorpion that has stung me thousands of times on my back for one more trip across the ol' river.

okay, so, with Dems successfully keeping anyone up in 2026 for voting for this turd let's take a look at who's up in 2026 anyway: 1. Cory Booker - apparently involved behind the scenes, constantly looking for bipartisanship. I don't dislike him personally but he doesn't have what we need. Primary.

Final campaign update for Tiny Tome 3! You can get 150 single-page rpgs for christmas and I'm not kidding www.kickstarter.com/projects/lon...

incredible photo that's definitely worth at least 1,000 words from Andrew Harnik of Getty
