The fact that Gavin Newsom is even talking to the likes of Shapiro is a sign that he’s a non-starter. I’ve never forgotten how Shapiro said that Trayvon Martin deserved to die. Not fucking ever.

Please, never be shy telling an author you loved their books. It’s seriously what gets us through.

The two most powerful forces in America have always been money and racism. They literally built this country via slavery, and it’s the reason why white people keep voting against their own interest against the corporations (because white folks are terrified of black folks getting a “free ride”)

This is an Underground Railroad style operation. This is what I mean that we should study UR history, tactics, and strategy.

hi from Minneapolis. these folks are catastrophically overthinking it; the immediate need when agents hit a block is for people that speak *any* language to know it's not safe to go out. that need is far more pressing than whatever this infantilizing "actually it's racist to make noise" shit is.

This is one hundred percent true. Government programs that provided aid and subsidies, and were de facto white-only, were popular across party lines and widely accepted before the Civil Rights movement. When open discrimination in their application was outlawed, the pullback began.

It’s ironic that they’re like “if we do ethnic cleansing we’ll have a high trust neighborly society” and then Minneapolis is literally doing high trust neighborly society and they’re like nooooo

Auto censorship is wild. Discord flagged the left version of this character meme as "sensitive" and would only let me post it in an NSFW channel. The right version was fine. The image without a text box has been posted many times, so it's not the short shorts.

ICE agents at a hotel in St. Paul woke up this morning to news that they’re getting kicked out of their hotel today at noon.

According to my Twin-Cities-born-and-raised wife: "It's not rude to call out rudeness, it's neighborly. There is nothing more neighborly than shouting at people come to intimidate your hospitality workers."

Good morning, Inklings. 🔆 Your favorite comfy, curvy, cosmic werewolf witch hates asking for help, but I do need a little assistance. I'm trying to get my rent covered for February. I really don't want to be evicted. Any help at all would be so appreciated. 💖 ko-fi.com/asteriaspiri...

they calling me Ahab cause I was Assigned Hole At Birth and I am looking for my Moby Di- are they gone? please you have to help me these women have locked me in the basement. they're trying to teach me magic the gathering. please send help

I want a print of this to hang in my studio. Please. Omg.

Yup. The actual "protests" are rare. They're happening, but they're not the main story. The main story is Will Stancil chasing down ICE agents in his Honda, people across the city doing grocery runs for neighbors no questions asked, people dropping everything they're doing to respond to whistles.

No. Use only water not milk

Stop they/theming trans women. Stop they/theming trans women. Stop they/theming trans women. Stop they/theming trans women. Stop they/theming trans women.

Every time the Trump regime uses the words "funded protesters" and "outside agitators" news outlets need to cut to this photo from last week. ICE has invaded these communities. Outside agitators don't show up in their fucking bathrobes.

Respectfully, I am going to whisper to some of our white comrades a truth that should be more widely known: You definitely have some ancestors to be proud of, ancestors who refused white supremacy, and poured out their lives in many of these struggles over time. Time to claim your true history.

10/ Abolishing ICE is much harder today than Section 24 was then. ICE is statutory and an entrenched agency. But Perkins reminds us they are policy choices. They’ve been built, dismantled, and rebuilt before. Immigration enforcement is policy. And policy can be changed.

I want to say Alice in Wonderland because I have a huge soft spot for the 1950s era of Disney and feel a lot of people my age and younger don’t appreciate movies from that time like they should. But…. I’d be lying if I said it was better than Encanto. That one was just really good.

Average Sunday show interview: OFFICIAL: we are going to dip enemies of the state into acid vats HOST: how will you pay for it? OFFICIAL: tariffs HOST: critics say tariffs don't generate acid vat money OFFICIAL: tariffs have generated more money than has ever existed HOST: thank u for ur time

When fascism came to America, no one cheered for Trump's use of the Insurrection Act to silence American protest louder than those who ALSO cheered loudest for the violent insurrectionists on January 6th, 2021.

Just because a lot of people are cruel, bigoted, and brainwashed doesn’t mean we have to find a “middle ground” with them or a “compromise” that satisfies some of their racist delusions. We just don’t.

I see a lot of handwaving about the harms of generative AI, possibly because 1) (certain) people don't expect to be affected and/or 2) they argue that it's a non-issue if what depicted isn't "true".. Either way, there's an abundance of willful ignorance in tech that makes me legitimately sad

Every capitalist's dream is to prevent you from using the stuff you already own in order to rent it from them instead

ICE are nasty ass child kidnappers, like after school special style

I’ve had more than one person On Here accuse me of somehow not doing my duty to The Community because I write kids’ books instead of, I dunno, whatever they think I should do instead. Probably something more joyless.

Seems unfair that you only get to use the bouncy slide to get off a plane when things have gone wrong. The bouncy slide should be a treat they give to the best passengers who did the flight correctly.

This is such a cool illustration of how the Mercator map distorts the size of Greenland, which looks as big as the whole continent of Africa on that map but is actually the size of Mexico.

I would like to state, on the record, here on the Bluesky, that any soldier who follows the orange terrorist's orders here are fucking traitors to their countrypeople. The orders are wrong. Legal or not, TRUMP WANTS HIS SOLDIERS TO FIRE UPON AMERICAN CIVILIANS! (more)

For the record: this is exactly as much context as we were given in the server.

This week's comic: Derp Impact foxtrot.com/2026/01/18/d...

This is laughable! It was not, by and large, the *right* that was concerned about it!

I feel like this pretty much sums up the rot at the core of American civic life as a whole. “Hold the fuck up, cowboy. I signed up for the great power, not the great responsibility when I signed up for the church/media/government/think tank complex/etc.”

Literally no thought to the existence of the people living in Greenland right now. It's just a shiny gem that can be given away, and should be given to us, because we have a lot of strength.

It is kind of grimly interesting to watch the administration try to figure out a reason to shoot themselves (and us) in the gut for a reason beyond "island big on map. want"

Amazing work by this aquarium supply store

The Austin Police Department trafficked children

Just heard "The tears were literally the wettest he ever made you. So why are we missing him?" I know a lot of girlies felt that in their chest. 😭

Do these people realize that "peace through strength" is straight up Orwellian at this point? Like, we're so far beyond the level of satire that it's comic.

I haven't seen the dunks but I will say that LOCAL CONDITIONS have to determine TACTICS. Folks, whistles are just a tactic and tactics vary according to context. Why waste time on this? If you've organized for 10 minutes, you know this is true. Keep it moving.

Three years ago today, Georgia state police murdered Tortuguita as part of their drive to destroy the Weelaunee Forest and build a deadly police militarization center. Tort fought for a world without police and capitalism, and so should we. Viva, viva Tortuguita.

BRENNAN: Tell me about the officer, Jonathan Ross KRISTI NOEM: Don't say his name! I mean, for heaven's sake, we shouldn't have people continue to dox law enforcement BRENNAN: His name is public NOEM: I know, but that doesn't mean it should continue to be said

this is absolutely so black people have been trying to highlight this for my entire life and before I was born, trying to tell people that what was used on them—almost as if for practice, to hone the mechanism—could and would be used on everyone else
