I will die on the hill that people who think Aziraphale's name is too strange or religious for a human au and needs to be changed to make sense have never worked a job where they deal directly with the names of the general public

Never. I mean, look at Kissinger.

I love Joe McLaren’s jacket art for my 2018 short story collection Help The Witch but when you remove the text from it and see the whole thing in widescreen there is a whole other level of beauty to it.

TIM WALZ: Do not take the bait. Do not take the bait. Do not allow them to invoke the Insurrection Act. Do not allow them to invoke martial law.

what you clearly see, CLEARLY, is a driver who is spooked by the agents grabbing her door, takes steps to drive away, and is immediately shot as moves her vehicle *away* from the agents.

Trump's goons are already pepper spraying and roughing up people in the Twin Cities this morning

“In an email to students who had enrolled in SOCI 217, Introduction to Race and Ethnicity, administrators said they ‘carefully considered’ whether the course could comply with the revised policy and ‘concluded that we cannot teach this course in its present form.’”

ICE is the new Stasi.

ICE will have access to one of the world’s most sophisticated hacking tools after a decision by the Trump admin. to move ahead with a contract with Paragon Solutions, a company founded in Israel which makes spyware that can be used to hack into any mobile phone – including encrypted applications.

SCOOP: 404 Media has obtained material that explains how Tangles and Webloc, two surveillance systems ICE recently purchased, work. One can track phones without a warrant and follow their owners home or to their employer.

Posts may be a bit more sporadic from me today as my kids are home from school because my city is being brutalized by the federal government to the extent that it's unsafe for schools to be open

The tool uses commercially sourced location data from smartphones. Typically this is collected through code in normal apps, or the online advertising process. Data then provided to ICE via the Webloc tool where users can search specific areas for phones www.404media.co/inside-ices-...

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said. That is called murder when they do that. Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

Location data from phone companies requires a warrant. But ICE believes this data doesn't, because people give it up "voluntarily." That's according to this internal ICE legal analysis shared with us. Ignores that people don't know what apps are tracking them www.404media.co/inside-ices-...

This is fascism. The reason I insist on calling it Juan Crow is because it's imperative to recognize that American fascism manifests as violent white supremacist impunity, where the circle of who gets treated like a nigger keeps broadening. It has to be unacceptable to treat anyone this way.

Many of these ICE agents are grossly unqualified for these jobs. They receive significantly less training than the average law enforcement officer in America. That’s why Renee Nicole Good is dead.

It’s easy to think that schools in Minneapolis are closed because the Feds murdered someone in the street but no, the actual reason is that while that was happening, the Feds were busy doing other heinous shit across the city like tear-gassing a school

Gentle reminder that EVERYONE shot by ICE or the police is innocent. Every single one. Cops aren't Judge Dredd. A person is innocent until proven guilty IN A COURT, so until a person is found guilty by a judge or jury, they're innocent. They're ALL innocent.

I just heard a law professor claim in a recording that in early modern England, there wasn’t any significant migration to the British Isles, which is just plainly wrong.

I hope, when this is over, you can buy little chunks of the white house in museum gift shops like they did with the berlin wall

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-...

Do not comply with illegal orders. You have a right to film police and federal agents on public property. You have a right to assemble on public property without permits (in most areas), but also fuck getting permits for the rest. Don't stop recording. Don't stop watching.

Anyone who actually fears for their life and thinks they'll be struck by a vehicle going 2mph would simply move out of the way

Meanwhile, Jeez.

i think this professional liar is one of the most disgraceful people in media

It’s fucking ridiculous that these types of shootings are prosecuted in the public, but the reason it’s happening is because we know that Donald Trump’s Department of Justice is not going to seriously investigate this murder. They’ve sent a message to ICE agents that they can act with impunity.

How about refusing to fund ICE? It’s a failure as an enforcement agency, sowing chaos in our communities without any possible benefit to the public. It’s not making us safer; it’s doing the opposite.

Das Sozialamt Altona zog einem Rentner 58 Euro gesammeltes Pfand von der Grundsicherung ab. Dabei dürfte er selbst nach strenger Auslegung etwas behalten.

Please share.. ICE THUGS shot & killed a woman in Minneapolis. Then attack citizens point blank with teargas grenades, pepper ball guns & chemical spray in the faces. Of course, Greg Bovino was in the mix. He needs to be brought up for murder charges.🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 youtu.be/LnfiWmX_mTE?...

“Four days after President Trump said the United States would “run” Venezuela, the sprawling political, security and intelligence apparatus that propped up Mr. Maduro’s strongman rule is in still place, and day-to-day life for many Venezuelans has worsened.” — NYT, Jan. 8, 2026

The video shows that the driver of the vehicle turned her wheels to avoid the ICE agents who surrounded her, screamed profanity at her, and gave her conflicting orders. They escalated the situation, put the public in danger, killed her without justification, and kept firing at her.

In dropping government recommendations that children routinely receive shots for four diseases, RFK Jr.'s allies believe they are closer to a top priority: allowing people who claim vaccine injuries can more easily sue vaccine makers in civil court.

Since the 2010s, the internet has become a sphere of unpaid labor. The masses are made to watch and create endlessly, while the enormous profits produced by this unpaid labor are entirely extracted by a privileged few. It is more brutal than the relationship between medieval lords and serfs. - H:O

New in PN: Renee Good's killer can and must be prosecuted "There’s no path to justice that runs through this administration or the federal courts. Hell, Trump will probably give the shooter a medal, and would certainly give him a pardon. But there is a path to justice that runs through Minnesota."
