Hooooo boy

New footage just dropped of ICE agents in Bell running through an intersection and driving erratically — in private vehicles (with no lights or sirens), causing a traffic accident after which they jumped out of their pickup truck with machine guns drawn. This is what set everything off in Bell.

“It’s nothing like the George Floyd protests in 2020 -”

If you realize how badly the media is spinning what’s happening in LA, why the everloving FUCK would you think you know what happened in Minneapolis in 2020?

Unless you were on the ground here, you don’t. It was nothing like they claimed.

*stage whisper* What happened in the George Floyd protests was also not what was presented in the media. Umbrella Guy is only one example.

Bringing back bad memories from the Twin Cities protests: people obeying curfews and still having their houses shot into, military checkpoints, none of THAT making the news but somehow everyone convinced it was a full on riot….

UPDATE: David Huerta was just released from custody!

And, while I would like the couch, I also feel as if I need to support the driver on this one. So, yay for the driver-who-quit! I hope your day is awesome 🤩

Now it is allegedly late because of “a processing delay at the Amazon facility.”

I’m pretty sure I just watched my Amazon driver quit in real time. My couch was a couple of stops away, then the driver was heading south … and south … and south … and suddenly, “we have lost contact with your delivery vehicle.”

there’s just no magic off ramp here that doesn’t involve people who are currently fine with what’s happening deciding that they are no longer fine with it

much like allowing them to define "free speech", allowing our enemies to define the flag and patriotism is a tremendous own goal that hurts our cause

most people in this country like it and like its flag and "actually we are the real patriots, you billionaire fuckface" is a compelling message

Wall Street Journal headline: DOGE Aides Search Medicare Agency Payment Systems for Fraud. Elon Musk's allies have been on site at Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services offices this week.

A very real thing that can definitely be done at a glance by skimming a spreadsheet in a computer system you're unfamiliar with

Yes, billionaires and powerful lobbyists aren't going to lose their jobs over a racist post.

But your local white supremacist mortgage lender can.

And yes, this still works in 2025. We've already been busy.

Listen, it's ok if you already need an escape from all of it. Any night, you can go outside, look up at the stars, and remember that we are so small in the grand scheme of -- damnit is that one of his rockets blowing up

Go make the art you’ve always wanted to make. Write the stories you’ve been dreaming of. Sing your heart out. Pick up an instrument & play. Do the things you’ve been holding back on because you’re worried about what others might think. Just do it. Do it now. Life is short. Life is precious. Please.

Cue older Minnesotans saying “in MY day, they didn’t cancel school for -35F” in 3…2…1…

There is literally a clause in your contract that says to defy unconstitutional orders, idk what more you want. I know this is harsh but also YOU ARE THE ONES WITH THE GUNS.

I take it back it already got stupider

this is accurate

This was quick and easy to do! Although unsettling to see how many things Google infected with AI.

My evening in a nutshell

I feel this deeply. Part of me so very much wants to be creative, and another part is so wffing exhausted and just trying to keep the lights on in my soul.

You Blamed DEI for Hurting Your Career. Now What? For people who pin their failures on diversity, corporate America’s DEI retreat removes a barrier—or maybe an excuse.

this confirms something i have long suspected, which is that certain people are told that their professional and academic failures are because of “affirmative action” or “DEI” as a way to avoid difficult conversations about their mediocrity www.wsj.com/lifestyle/ca...

If you run like we're under mortal threat, you need to lose like we're under mortal threat, too. Throw your body on the gears. Cosplay the GOP rejecting everything just to make those in power look bad.

If you don't, do not come back to us in 2 years & tell us democracy is on the line.

Having read the article and the response, here’s my take:

Anyone who has a tumblr account absolutely knows safe kink practices, as well as identifying power dynamics that create coercion.

If you are a white natural born US Citizen who works with immigrants, one way you can step up is by being the one who demands to see the warrant, VERY LOUDLY, and then reads it veeerrrry slowly.

Look, I know it’s difficult to work retail, so I’m not going to be a bitch about this … but I bought this sewing kit and it has *cookies* in it???
