The grimness of US history should encourage us. Yes, people used to send lynching postcards. And other people saw that, worked towards building a more just society anyway, and succeeded beyond anyone's wildest imagination. There's more work to be done. What's our excuse for choosing despair instead?

ACAB still stands but this is good optics.

BlueMAGA out in full effect today on the TL.

The Connect Bay Area Transit measure will raise nearly $1 billion to support transit. This is your chance to help collect signatures to qualify this measure for the November election. This effort is kicking off with a day of action on Friday, January 23, all across the Bay Area.

Who else is struggling with going to work every day, pretending that everything is normal, while the world seems to be crashing around us all? Fuck the TPS reports. People are being kidnapped in our neighborhoods and there seems to be no end in sight.

Connecticut you know what to do.

Well the "so far" turned out to be prescient. Sources tell me that St. Paul School Board member Chauntyl Allen has also been arrested in connection with the church protest, making her the first elected official to be arrested in connection with the ongoing ICE activity.

While it didn't happen last night, that doesn't mean it can't happen tonight.

ICE will be abolished regardless of whether those who are currently in office like the idea or not

Uhhhh

My take on the Jan 23 action in Minneapolis is that I don’t really care whether it’s a “true” general strike (we could argue about that all day). What DOES matter is that it’s a bold and necessary escalation, and local labor leaders are publicly encouraging workers to join in anti-ICE resistance

Incapable of understanding how "abolish ICE" was silly but arresting 5 year olds is public policy

state-sponsored child trafficking

ICE kidnapped a 5-year-old and sent him alone to a facility in Texas. Hell isn't hot enough.

seen at 38th & Hiawatha this morning

listen, you can’t hate america more than americans hate america.

Imagine thinking the bad thing about this situation is reputational rather than like A BREWING WAR BETWEEN THE USA AND EUROPE sorry that youre embarrassed by cheetoman but like FOCUS PEOPLE

Berkeley landlords, there's a new state requirement that all rental units must have a working stove and fridge. A great way to ensure all your units meet this habitability requirement is to complete the annual required Rental Housing Safety Self-Certification Checklist: berkeleyca.gov/doing...

You know what to do

LET US HAVE SOMETHING NICE

everyone manifest it as hard as you can

live your life such that millions of people don’t drop everything they’re doing to collectively hope that It Happened at the slimmest of signs

Hundreds of people rallied at San Francisco’s Civic Center to protest against President Trump, citing U.S. actions in Venezuela, Gaza and Iran and a Greenland bid. Read more → www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti... 📽️: Yalonda M. James/S.F. Chronicle

I'm still thinking of the fact that Zohran Mamdani went on The View, said "abolish ICE" and then got a round of applause

They can kidnap you, they can shoot you dead in the street, they can terrorize your neighbors and threaten World War 3, and the Democrats will always sign the check.

Absolute loser shit.

Once again, how are we supposed to work through all this -- I mean, to do our day jobs?

the people who were scolded relentlessly for celebrating this moment nine years ago have been completely vindicated. punching a nazi in the face now polls higher than any member of congress. (source: i made it up but it feels very true in my heart)

Saint Paul Public Schools, one of the biggest school districts in the state, is closed for the next two days because teachers need time to build hybrid learning because unaccountable masked, armed federal government goons have made it too difficult for nonwhite children to leave their homes.

URGENT: The Manhattan Institute was the first “think tank” to actively attack Oakland/SF using anti-Blackness and tech fascist support to recall Black school board members, Chesa Boudin and the first Black woman DA of Alameda county. They’re coming for CA and independent media needs your support!

Here is Senator Alex Padilla next to María Machado, who has called on the Trump admin to invade Venezuela Padilla & Machado support Israel’s genocide in Gaza & support the U.S. attempt to overthrow the government in Venezuela Padilla claims to be against Trump, but he’s on the same side

It's important for everyone to see this

Congratulations everyone, Big Brother wasn’t imposed on you, you bought Big Brother on Prime Day and installed him yourselves.

Does anyone else feel completely insane right now

Just so everyone understands, this was a Republican op

The author of a controversial memo from centrist think tank Searchlight telling Democrats to abandon the slogan “Abolish ICE” is a senior advisor for WestExec, a D.C. shadow lobbyist for corporations in the defense, surveillance, and immigration enforcement industries. prospect.org/2026/01/19/a...

He's not an ani-fascist but it would be bad to cheer on his death at the hands of state power.

I really don't think the people doing politics, and this ranges from the level of Senators and governors down to like the people following elections on social media, understand that the country that existed a year ago simply does not exist anymore. It is not coming Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

time to clock in for my shift at the worrying factory

Antifascists have been talking for a long time about how countering fascism is at its core community defense work. It is keeping each other safe.

i once read "the rights you think criminals should have are the rights you think everyone should have because the state can criminalize anyone" and it changed how i think about everything

This is one of the funniest things this app has ever birthed into existence.

Exercise Sourdough prepped SF Sheriff’s Department for urban warfare
