"I fear some [council members] are indifferent." Have you paid someone's rent, organized a fundraiser, gone on patrol, found someone an attorney, done someone's laundry, delivered groceries, held a baby of someone sheltering in fear? "If not you may be too far removed to have good judgment."

When squirrels began chewing their way through my window trim, these guys did an excellent, quick job of wrapping the trim in metal, and were a pleasure to have at our house. Now they've been kidnapped and disappeared. Please join me in supporting their families in this terrible time.

I have no love for the oppressive Iranian regime—or for theocratic states of ANY kind—but a failed Iranian state will interfere with stability in the Middle East and endanger lives for decades to come.

The entity this result would most benefit is Israel, as well as the military industrial complex.

I have some lovely neighbors who have been sheltering in place, not working, AND had their car stolen while they were holed up. Trying to help them pay their mortgage and bills so they don't become homeless while they get back on their feet.

That was probably the era when Best Buy was still trying to win back public trust after a decade of bait-n-switch scams where they’d advertise sale items they didn’t have in stock, then when you came to the store to buy the thing on sale, they’d pressure you to buy something more expensive.

Seems pretty sus. I’m gonna keep eyes on it, just in case.

2 great Native organizers in conversation. What a great piece to have access to!

Oh dang! Sensor Ghost (from DC) are playing a punk rock show AT my job at the same time!

This is a terrific article full of useful information and actionable ideas for literally anyone, anywhere who cares about their community.

A book with the words "ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA" scrawled within

I stopped by @moonpalacebooks.bsky.social in Minneapolis today to sign anti-ICE copies of TIGERS BETWEEN EMPIRES. Get them Saturday, Feb 28 during "Authors for Minnesota Day" in support of local Minnesota bookstores and raising funds for the protection of civil rights. More: shorturl.at/o32PZ

This episode was both (1) very scary, and (2) a refusal to wallow in that scariness, instead centering agency, resistance and possibility - pointing both to historical struggles against similar regimes and concrete, practical actions we can take.

This is male scissoring erasure.

you know, it still seems like it should be an even bigger issue that the president has been sending armed forces to kidnap and assault people in an ethnic cleansing campaign, with a specific geographic focus on regions that didn't vote for him in the last election

There are no quick fixes for fascism - our charge is to confront and uproot the criminalization that underlies and drives it within and beyond borders.

Maybe he thinks compromising with fascists is the best way to keep the most Minnesotans safe. Maybe he's afraid of the insurrection act?
It's giving "If we let Hitler take Czechoslovakia, he'll stop there" vibes.

It doesn't matter who they're arresting or what they've done.

What matters is how they're operating and how they're treating them.

They're kidnapping them, violently, and putting them in concentration camps.

That tells you all you need to know.

I was thrilled to hear myself described in this anarchist podcast as "an elderly man."

Ready to start cashing my Soros retirement checks, baby!

If you have time and are willing, I'd love to hear your response to those saying Bannon's threat of ICE stationing at polling places is flooding the zone with shit to "distract" and spin people into a panic.
I trust you, but it's the most confident prohesying I've heard you do, which is alarming.

We are organizing resistance to a concentration camp regime.

Thank you!

Plate check!

You don't have to regurgitate their lies as truth.
You know that, right?

This is what I'm talking about! Treat these hotels like you'd treat any other business - consequences for harboring violent criminal gangs!
Love to see our city council taking some action.
Would also love to see our mayor taking some action!

It's a sleep EMERGENCY!!! The sun is going down! No one could have seen this coming!

Everyone needs to hear this absolutely everyone.

I have not received a text message from the City of Minneapolis emergency notification system since December 27, 2025.
Maybe someone should check to see if they're okay.

Awoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!
