My group was able to recover a spent canister from a green smoke grenade in Minneapolis. We now confirm with physical evidence that it was a green signaling grenade.

Please don't spread rumors about hexachloroethane or nerve agents.

This is why, despite things seeming to be at a plateau, I really do think the rubicon has been crossed

Elites have historically uhhhh….been unable unable to ignore mass politics with much success

Hearing a senator say “warrantless breaking into homes” **will** be forbidden is unfathomable to me

I genuinely think it might be the thing that is most forbidden across the Constitution and its Amendments. What good are our rights if we have to litigate them anew each time?

I like how “this is making me crash out all over again” and “this might be the best outcome” are both comment I agree with. News is cool rn. Current affair are cool

state-sponsored child trafficking

You can tell Americans don’t know the gravity of the situation, because this person’s thinks protests in the street are comparable to a war where the just outcome ends thousands dead and American cities being airbombed

We elected Trump, saw what he did, and elected Trump again, and you expect the people impacted to not have anything to say?

Absolutely go fuck yourself

I spoke to the Secretary-General of NATO, Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, Friedrich Merz and Giorgia Meloni.

Together we stand firm in our commitment to uphold the sovereignty of Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark.

Here's a hot take: Maybe the Greenland sword rattling and subsequent EU tariff response is enough to polarize our decrepit SCOTUS enough to give Trump the W

No matter whether they’re coming from the left or the center, every single person on this site that’s like “I hate Will Stancil but…” sounds like they’re a swing district House Democrats issuing a statement about the operation to kidnap Maduro.

The good news? We’re winning universal childcare faster than anyone expected. The bad news? Ms. Rachel and I have to find some new song inspiration…

America has a housing shortage. Every single housing proposal you see that is not "build more housing" will have the primary effect of pushing up the prices of existing housing, and is therefore, in reality, a plan to enrich current homeowners. In conclusion, build more housing.

“For the families of Danish soldiers who died in the American-led campaign against the Taliban, their country’s partnership with the United States is not an abstraction. Denmark’s loyalty to America brought Sophia Bruun to Afghanistan, and it ended her life.”

Me 2025: No kings!
Me 2026: Except his majesty Frederik X,
King of Denmark. May death come swiftly to his enemies.

I’d take your point a step further and say learning to grasp symbolism and non-literalism is really integral to living in a society. It is anti-social to willfully fixate on literal interpretations as a rhetorical cudgel

You are correct, but also Louise Lucas is a Black woman who was born in 1944

I am fairly confident she’s been on this frequency for a while, and (mostly non-Black) society is catching up

Why is the ICE bsky account exclusively following journalists (who appear to focus on immigration coverage)?

Not trying to be conspiratorial, but seems to be sending a message…

It’s apples and oranges

Margin accounts are a bit like secured credit cards / more traditional loans in that you need to put up some equity at the start and your leverage will depend on how much you have. The median buyer should really not be leveraging ever to be honest (buy indices)

Credit rates were largely unrelated to the 2008 financial crash

People can use much cheaper financing typically for investments (“leveraging”)

But you are right. Lower rates mean they will not be offered to the riskiest populations and credit limits will be lower. May be a good thing

Someone 5 years from now is going to write a great book on Newsome and Vance as foils of each other, completely juiceless white men who keep being cast as the ascendents of a new political system

Fellas, is it morally justifiable to log off?

These read to me items that have been thoroughly polled. Still need to see robust n to know whether anyone really cares about this whole Minneapolis thing

Twin Cities Missed Connections getting weird

Specifically, many Protestants— particularly evangelical—believe that Jews must be in control of the land of Israel in order for the end times to begin and Jesus to return

This belief is a backbone of evangelicals. Mike Pompeo spoke explicitly of his apocalyptic goals as Secretary of State

This is a pretty ahistorical. Israel’s founding and early politics were dominated by socialism, heavily influenced by the biblical concept of jubilee (recurring debt and wealth resets)

American supported Israeli socialism even while overthrowing other socialist governments for religious reasons

Total mystery why ICE would be driving around in unmarked vehicles with Fed patches and multiple license plates

Guess what protestors…found in abandoned ICE vehicles tonight that may be relevant to your musings
