We live in a very rural place, so when we lose power, we lose internet. We recently bought a back up battery for the internet so we can at least check to see if it’s just a local problem or TEOTWAWKI. Came in real handy this morning in relieving my WWIII anxiety. Highly recommend.

Facebook post by Nekima Levy Armstrong:

"Friends, A Breaking News headline just appeared in the Star Tribune, claiming that the national Target boycott ended today. This is false. The writer of the story, Carson Hartzog, is fully aware that the Target boycott was launched in Minneapolis on February 1, 2025. I have spoken to her several times since then, yet she failed to reach out to me, Jaylani Hussein, or Monique Cullars Doty, the three founders of the national Target boycott for the story. Carson even used the photo from our press conference that includes my daughter, Assata Joy and Ms. Rosemary Nevils, an elder in our community, to try to add legitimacy to a bogus story. 
I am once again disgusted by the Star Tribune and their attempts to minimize and erase the voices of our community. 
The nationwide Target Boycott is not over, unless and until Target reverses its decision to rollback Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, as we said from the beginning. “Pastor” Jamal Bryant does not speak for us or our community and has zero authority to end the nationwide boycott of Target, a company that is headquartered in Minneapolis. 
Please don’t believe the hype and these attempts to rescue Target from the effects of capitulating to the Trump Administration. Target rolled back DEI because of Donald Trump. They donated $1 million to the Trump/Vance inauguration committee. Target also allowed ICE to stage in its parking lots during Operation Metro Surge.
The nationwide boycott of Target is successful and it will continue. Please continue to shop elsewhere."

Nekima on the Target boycott.

Somewhere right now, a bird is navigating thousands of miles just by Earth's magnetic

I popped over to the Bad Place to see what’s up and was quickly reminded why I’m not there 😒 Still sad though that more quality peeps haven’t committed to joining us here, despite all the talk of leaving that seems to come in waves. Anyway, wish you were here @natgeoanimals.bsky.social
