Failed out of orthodontia

For any elected official who needs to hear this, I impart a lesson learned from the NFL: When the other team is tired and on the back foot, you don’t call a timeout so they can catch their breath. You grind their fucking face into the dirt until the final whistle blows and you’ve won the game.

A ride for Alex Pretti is being organized in NYC on Saturday. Meet @ 2 PM in Foley Square, roll out @ 2:30.

Being right AND memorable are important parts of a successful job search persona

This is the move. Use Signal for everything - I’ve been doing that since 2017 and have convinced a lot of other people to do the same.

this was on saturday at 26th and nicollet after alex pretti was executed by CBP/ICE agents & the minneapolis PD is who is throwing gas at people in the neighborhood it’s already horrible enough without needing to make shit up too

good now do ICE and Miller

Hey Maryland ummmmm

I paid my therapist a zillion dollars to tell me this, so I’m passing it on to anyone else in MN who needs to hear it: Think of taking time away to recharge not as not doing the work, but as doing quality control for the work. You’re not going to be able to show up to do it well if you’re depleted

If you're only hearing about the nine documented deaths for the first time now, please consider contributing to the fundraisers to help their devastated families. bsky.app/profile/last...

This or just dumping people *in the woods* AND sending folks out w/o their phone or I.D. Volunteers w/ Safe Haven wait at the gate & do sweeps of the woods, with warm clothes, a burner, and a ride home, "so no one is left alone at the gate." I donated; pls join me if you can: gofund.me/7d506a3d0

So it's Murder One. Abolish ICE

My dog is having an upset stomach day and I’m crying at everything, how’s it going

Sometimes I think about this for no reason whatsoever www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

never been a better moment to go after qualified immunity for EVERYONE, not just ICE. Pressley never misses

you know how we extricate ourselves from this sealed pressure cooker of boiling mad lunatics who have guns and chemical weapons and carte blanche? that’s right: body cams

One small thing you can do today: ICE is ramping up in Maine. Food For All is delivering meals to 300 families that can't leave their homes. They need $7k a day to continue operations. The Culture Study community is raising enough to cover a day—join us? Donate directly: givebutter.com/Scx87A or

"...about a week before [Alex Pretti's] death, he suffered a broken rib when a group of federal officers tackled him while he was protesting their attempt to detain other individuals."

I'm beyond honored to have received the endorsement of our Governor!

Addressing the ICE presence in courts seems like an obvious one that's missing here. More details on that - and what activists are doing about it - here: talkingpointsmemo.com/feature/new-...

Beyer calls Minneapolis killings 'murder,' demands Noem impeachment

This country has locked up so many children in one prison that the CHILDREN ARE LEADING PRISON UPRISINGS. As a country we are not furious enough yet.

their silence is defending in the face of monied interests after having such a long & storied record of specifically targeting consenting adult minority groups 🙈🙉🙊

Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

The American Federation of Government Employees, which represents border patrol officers at the National Border Patrol Council, calls on Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller to resign or be fired

Hi friends. Savor the rest and take your tenderness when you can. Did you eat? Take your meds? Drink water?

The ocean freighting industry is woke now (the containers spell Renee, for Renee Good). www.reddit.com/r/Tacoma/com...

Can you help us keep this Minneapolis neighbor and her family safe from ICE? One of her daughters has been on the frontline while also working to bring back neighbors kidnapped by ICE back to Minneapolis. It’s time for us to also show up for them. gofund.me/6228ad4b3

I just know that something good is going to happen I don't know when But just saying it could even make It happen

Wait, they're replacing a Greg with a Tom

🧵Important Noem and Bovino reminder: If you are at a protest and film anything, make sure to change your video settings to 4k Most videos on the internet box are uploaded in either 720P or 1080P resolutions.

Stephen Miller retire bitch!

Bovino retiring in peace?

😳

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days. His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

Parents have one job and it’s to be there for your kids

There is the Melt ICE Norwegian hat pattern (knit and crochet) on Ravelry that is giving all proceeds to immigrant aid, and then there are some free Liam's Bunny hats that suggest funding immigrant aid: www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib... www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

A few days ago, Rep. Laura Gillen was one of 7 House Democrats who voted with Republicans to fund DHS without the policy changes most Dems wanted. Now she’s calling for impeaching Kristi Noem. Politics are rapidly shifting here.

Why is the msm outside of Maine not covering this? It seems like a huge and very troubling story to me. ICE coming to observers houses or calling them on the phone warning them to back off??!! www.pressherald.com/2026/01/23/i...

one of the most significant indicators of maturity and personal power to me is the two-sided clarity of BOTH 1) being graciously able admit when you were wrong, and own it, and 2) also having the capacity to refuse to abandon your own side when you are falsely maligned

When people challenge the idea that a particular victim was a "protestor" and point out they were an observer, they are pointing to indiscriminate violence targeting those documenting and recording police violence, preventing evidence getting out, rather than eg crowd control or dispersal.

Notice how Black people generally do not fall for the okie doke. Some people hear a single (fake) apology and get amnesia. There's a lesson here about our current disaster and what future repair looks like.

Stefan Merrill Block recounts the misery of being an unwilling homeschooler.

The Minnesota v. Noem hearing is beginning before Judge Katherine Menendez. Minnesota, Minneapolis, and St. Paul are seeking a TRO today to stop Operation Metro Surge.

You’ll feel less confused if you admit to yourself that some people don’t care about the suffering of others, and some people like it.
