A radar map showing precipitation. Both the Michigan and Wisconsin side of Lake Michigan show snow flurries, while the area over Lake Michigan indicates rain.

Great visualization showing the power of the Great Lakes to store and release heat energy that affects the weather.

if you take your cellphone to a protest, even turned off in your backpack, that's a self inflicted surveillance pwn on your part

Gassing protesters in the U.S. is a fully bipartisan project and this has been true for a long time...

Such a good read for those of us trying to be brave and not sure what to do next. ❤️💪🏻

Guys, it’s a “windbreak” not “wind, break!”

ICE Enforcement May Be A Mass Disabling Event ICE have proven again and again that they will target the most vulnerable. Their aggressive actions may even become a mass disabling event. Why aren't more people talking about it?

Marimar Martinez was shot by ICE & ended up with 7 bullet wounds

A TikTok influencer was shot today in south LA

A 15 year old autistic boy disappeared & ended up in federal custody

Chemical munitions are being used

ICE not only targets disabled people, their actions may be a mass disabling event

I dunno man, try listening to marginalized people *before* shit goes wrong, and maybe it won't keep being like that

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.

The Diplomat Life @TheDiplomatLife CHINA SAYS IT WILL INCLUDE PALESTINE IN BRICS ORGANIZATION FOR ITS DEVELOPMENT

Nobody cares about the victims in the Dallas ICE shooting apparently. The first I've heard about one of them was on CNN today. He's fighting for his life in the hospital --- he was brought to the US when he was 13. He's 33 now. No criminal record.

I just don't know what to say anymore.

Kenya transgender rights victory hailed as African first QNews LGBTIQA+ News

it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like

"A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act."

fuck yeah

It's all fun and games until a cop handles a Tylenol gelcap with no gloves and within seconds their socks are bothering them.

The Supreme Court has clarified the Administration's theory of checks and balances: a blank check is a kind of check, and a negative balance is a kind of balance.

Hi.

Once again reminding you that adoptees are often left without support, and that we are at far higher risks for suicide.

Please help.

Please.

Folks, you can't report the United States to its manager. There's no superhero coming to save us.

We don't need one giant act of heroism. We need millions of small acts of solidarity. Help one person in your community for nothing in return. Then, do it again. And again.

That's the revolution.

What's being "protected" is not "free speech" but rather the RIGHT for white men to be white supremacists in public without any criticism or any consequences. I hope that's clear.

newsom posting We should all feel a deep sense of grief and outrage at the terrible violence that took place in Utah today. Charlie Kirk's murder is sick and reprehensible, and our thoughts are with his family, children, and loved ones. I knew Charlie, and I admired his passion and commitment to debate. His senseless murder is a reminder of how important it is for all of us, across the political spectrum, to foster genuine discourse on issues that deeply affect us all without resorting to political violence. The best way to honor Charlie's memory is to continue his work: engage with each other, across ideology, through spirited discourse. In a democracy, ideas are tested through words and good-faith debate — never through violence. Honest disagreement makes us stronger; violence only drives us further apart and corrodes the values at the heart of this nation.

"The best way to honor Charlie [Kirk]'s memory is to continue his work"

this is yall's presidential candidate?

Hands off our city, jagoff

Chicago forever

Talk about how this is all being staged to set Chicago up for a military occupation. Talk about how they are planning to attack cultural gatherings, picnics, and parades, knowing that people will cling to their neighbors and family members—and that Trump will use those acts of decency as an excuse.

Trump's hedging comments about whether the National Guard will be deployed in Chicago shouldn't calm anyone's concerns. We're expecting hundreds of federal agents on the ground, attacking our communities, whether the Guard accompanies them or not. In D.C., feds are the ones doing the real damage.

Centrists: "Defund the police" is a bad message.

*proceeds to dramatically increase police funding, funnels Covid money to the police, expands ICE, gleefully incorporates army into the police force*

We're at the stage that if you have a better idea of what people need to do, then you have to do it. And maybe it starts with a couple of people and grows. YOU really have to do it.

BREAKING: Gov. JB Pritzker says the Trump administration has sent the Texas National Guard to Great Lakes Naval Base outside Chicago, awaiting orders to deploy to Chicago.

Someone asked me what victory against the forces seeking to occupy Chicago looks like. Obviously, those forces being repelled is the goal, but there are layers to what success looks like in these deteriorating conditions. The first is to successfully resist the normalization of military occupation.

Y’all I need 700 now 🙏🏽

I just wanted to quickly note that this piece was an all-women effort, start to finish. From the reporters to the witnesses and even the lawyer who reviewed it, seven women working in different capacities were able to bring this story of gross malfeasance to life. Proud The Handbasket can do this.
