happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

β€˜Backing down isn’t an option’: Minnesota ICE shootings mobilize Americans to join ICE observer groups The killings of Minneapolis residents Renee Good and Alex Pretti have inspired people across the US to document federal agents’ activities in their communities

for over 3 weeks, I've spoken to ICE watchers and organizers across the country: first right after Renee Good's killing β€” then 2 weeks into my reporting, Alex Pretti was killed.

ICE watchers are being detained and harassed β€” but they're also stopping ICE abductions and inspiring others to join them

Don’t Worry, Our New Stadium Will Have an Endless, Gigantic Parking Lot When you’re going to a concert or a sporting event, you’re worried about one thing: Will the stadium have an endless parking lot packed with thousa...

"Our endless parking lot will earn outside revenue from many sources. We can rent it to post-apocalyptic television shows as an easy visual for the destroyed, soulless husk of society, and that’s about it. Fingers crossed for Mad Max: Rochester, New York."

A red hat, inspired by a symbol of resistance to Nazi occupation, gains traction in Minnesota A Minneapolis knitting shop has resurrected the design of a Norwegian cap worn to protest Nazi occupation. Its owner says the money raised from hat pattern sales will support the local immigrant community.

Plume β€” THE BITTER SOUTHERNER A Tale of Murder & Martyrdom in the Everglades

'Greenland belongs to its people': The US scientists speaking out against Trump's imperial aggression At least 225 US scientists who conduct research in Greenland have signed a Statement in Solidarity with Greenland this month.

Kalaallit Nunaat belongs to its people. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡±

If a 'framework' for Greenland’s future emerges from international discussions in the coming days, it must be a plan that Greenlanders want.

To put 200 active measles infections in one state in context, the Disneyland measles outbreak a decade ago - which I did some work on in grad school - was 131 total cases in California. That was a notable outbreak. That's an outbreak with its own Wikipedia page. And it's just like this now

β€œHow to Talk Minnesotan” is intended to be comedic but I recommend it for every autistic transplant, because no one will explain any of this to you, they’ll just get mad at you and you won’t know why. This outright just tells you the unspoken rules and everything makes so much more sense after that

Alabama uses Japanese American Internment era law to charge immigrants who don’t self-register Alabama is finding new ways to criminally charge undocumented immigrants

Do we need to say it louder? Here. Louder.

" Federal courts in Alabama are using a law last applied during the U.S. internment [incarceration] of people of Japanese descent during World War II to charge immigrants who don’t register themselves..."

Archaeologists have unearthed a Bronze Age metropolis in the heart of the Eurasian steppe: an early form of city as complex as those of contemporary, more traditionally 'urban' civilisations, showing how steppe polities were just as sophisticated.
