During 2024 there were a lot of. And I mean a lot of people aiming to work for a potential Harris government insisting the Biden administration were doing as much as they could to prevent deaths in Gaza.

Minneapolis should press its momentum and demand not only withdrawal but start talking about the need for immediate reparations, loudly, with the total certainty that only winners have. "You have wronged us terribly and must pay recompense" and let them argue the second part.

tfw when the imperialism is boomeranging

Alex Pretti’s last words were “are you ok?” said the woman next to him who ICE also pepper sprayed in the face.

is there a law against mark carney becoming British PM

Frodo: I wish so much unbelievably stupid shit had not happened in my time Gandalf: So do all who live to see such times. This is all exceptionally stupid, though

An ICE convoy just randomly tear-gassed Wrecktangle Pizza and the whole Lynlake intersection. I couldn’t run fast enough to catch up and get video but someone must have

as an artist, I basically live by this ancient tumblr post, and I'm not kidding.

From the minnesota community on Reddit: ST. PAUL, MN: A sobbing resident calls 911 as federal agents force their way into her home to chase down a DoorDash driver who was just trying to deliver food. Explore this post and more from the minnesota community

Everybody should watch this and see this woman, who has a baby in her arms and is thrust into basically a standoff, develop courage in real time.

Want to Stop ICE? Go After Its Corporate Collaborators. ICE can’t function without help from the private sector. So we should force the private sector to stop helping.

To Be Hero X has gotta be the coolest anthology storytelling I've seen in an anime in forever. Took a great premise and pushed the premise all the way to its logical breaking point. Canterbury Tales with a soundtrack by Hiroyuki Sawano.

broke: great man theory of history

woke: great idiot theory of history

I saw this video of a Vietnam vet in the fur coat yelling at ICE and thought to myself, "this is missing something," before I realized, "Ah, of course, the Ether instrumental. It's so obvious."

Problem solving, the ICE way.

A favorite from last year, if I ever had one.

No Blood For Oil vs. Exactly How Much Oil Are We Talking About?

Expect to see a lot of this classic Onion headline, from 23 years ago, over the coming weeks.

Spray paint a plane and they'll detain you without trial and call you a terrorist.

Kidnap a foreign head of state - and Keir Starmer will make it clear we've played no part in it but will wait for the scheduled press conference in a few hours before potentially condemning it

If you're a staffer at 60 Minutes who worked on that CECOT segment that got yanked by Bari Weiss at the last minute, figure out a way to leak it. Not saying it's an easy decision or there won't be consequences, but ask yourself why you got into journalism in the first place.

It's incredibly sad that BBNO$ is actually quitting music but CTV citing the Fear& podcast as their source is frying me

i love how CBS News is now just "Bari Shower Thoughts"

To all the young people in New York and across our country who count on gender-affirming care:

I won't let this administration come for you, your doctors, or your lifesaving health care. 

Your health care is still legal and protected. 

I'll always fight for you.

Have you called Trump a "fascist?" If so, he might officially designate you a "terrorist." Trump administration dramatically ramps up investigations of liberals and left-leaning groups under the guise of countering "domestic terrorism."

“This morning, WaPo confirmed what many of us have been warning about since Trump’s reelection, namely that behind closed doors the admin has begun a sweeping, ideologically driven campaign to treat left-leaning Americans as a domestic terrorist threat.” www.defiance.news/p/have-you-c...

Bluesky comments are like encountering the patients the neuropsychologist Alexander Luria found in the Soviet Union:

Okay but like
why is *anybody* buying Warner Bros
why does Warner Bros need to be bought
how big do the entertainment conglomerates need to get before they are one single conglomerate

Interesting take on how Microsoft employees are resentful of AI because they're forced to use Copilot but it doesn't make them more productive and AI teams are rewarded while everyone else gets scraps & layoffs. It even claims a team lost their PM to layoffs due to their lack of AI proficiency.

Posted my Spotify wrapped and got hit with 4 of these 🤔 in the groupchat, I may be cooked
