Oh. NOW they care about Melissa Hortman and her husband. After Trump refused to call Walz because he was a “nasty man.” After 4 months of ignoring the assassination.

Antifa? Only if you ignore the shooter’s transphobia, anti-abortion stance and support of Trump.

Nate would have seen more consistent productivity gains if he’d listened to AI skeptics 6 months ago.

But tech bros gonna bro

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

"Father forgive the ones who do not know what they are doing."
Holy holy smoke he is comparing ICE to the people who crucified Jesus.
Maga heads (who know their verses) are going to blow up.

Tbf I think it was an appealing idea for a short period of time. Unfortunately that time was the early 1980s.

you have never met a parent who will go to the mat for their kid faster than parents who have already had to fight the system to get their kid the support they're entitled to

Some of them might even agree

Yeah, I’ve a bunch of them at anti-war/Trump protests.

We saw some of this during the George Floyd protests. Even here in a quiet working class neighborhood of St Paul neighbors reported seeing black SVUs w no plates parked on or cruising the streets

Religious leaders here are not mincing words. They have repeatedly used the word "evil."

"Detention and deportation are acts that wound the body of Christ, and deny the dignity of God's people."

And adults!

Just saying, like if someone you know had a birthday *cough*midmarch*cough* I’m pretty sure they could find something awesome, too

This murder is why we still have to say BLACK LIVES MATTER

Kingsley Bimpong should be alive.

Kingsley Bimpong should be alive. If we had public safety responses that cared for individuals instead of only looking for crimes this could have been avoided. Instead, Kingsley paid for it with his life and Dakota County taxpayers will be footing the bill for law enforcement’s indifference.

“For more than 3 hours, officers can be seen walking past while he lay on the floor in his urine in obvious distress…noting he was foaming at the mouth & having seizure-like activity…mistaking his medical emergency for a drug overdose…”

Except a drug overdose is also a medical emergency...

Journalist here

I’m interested in talking to a federal agency scientist who was fired, then rehired. I can keep you anonymous. I’m on Signal ginnyg.04

Reposts are appreciated!

It’s wild the agents who have videographers following them never seem to have footage of what they claim those they are arresting did

It's a really simple game, actually :

Start :
Chop wood
Carry water
go to Start

“a guy who has been advocating for a ceasefire and hostage deal since basically October 10 2023”

So fairly new to this work.

And here I thought virtue was a sign of character

Does it count as “restaurant parking” if I’m gonna go into the restaurant but right now I need to just sit alone in the quiet car for a few … or several … minutes?

Case in point: magic is a thing outside the card game/collecting world. No need to capitalize it for me, thank you.

I would settle for a better spelling and grammar check - like the one my standard issue one I had before the AI one magically appeared on my devices and is so bad I can’t write on a device without getting mad

it’s said all the time but I think we should continue to hammer home how insane it is that we got dead-eyed bros trying to sell us robots that will free us from the supposedly cruel burden of “creative careers” instead of the actual cruel burden of “doing menial household chores”

Somewhere
In the wall of an old house
Exists
A nest
That a mouse made
From our hair clippings
To protect her little ones

Knowing that some small part of us
Will always be together that way
Makes my heart soft

There is a coordinated republican message today that they will respond to peaceful protests next weekend with violence.

We will not be silenced by their threats.

Will do! I’m wearing my black and white flannel duster (to distinguish myself from all the other middle aged white ladies)

Ah! I had to miss it but I got a free copy of his book. Heading into the conference now

Five Extremely Convincing Reasons We Should Build Armed Bases on the Moon - Reactor I mean, what could possibly go wrong?

If science fiction has taught us anything, it's that we'd see heavily armed bases on the Moon in our lifetimes. Not sure it's a good idea? @jdnicoll.bsky.social offers five unassailable pro-Moon base arguments.

As long as they don’t need to get their health insurance through the ACA marketplace. Or need a hospital within 60 miles their farm.

Oh, wait. By “farmers” they mean the multi-million dollar corporate farms putting family farms out of business
