Halloween is the best holiday because it's all about people giving neighbors and strangers treats for free and telling kids how awesome they are.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Cate Le Bon Breaks Down 7 Perfectly Produced Records The Welsh musician looked to Kate Bush and krautrock for production inspiration on her latest album, ‘Michelangelo Dying.’

Unsurprisingly, Cate Le Bon has elite taste in music!

I found this a really illuminating thread on what demonstrations do and why they matter.

The No Kings March in Chicago is one of the largest gatherings I’ve seen here. Looking down from by the river, the crowd stretches for blocks down Michigan Ave and wraps around Wacker Dr. This video is from a few minutes ago and the end of the protest is nowhere in sight.

As others have aptly pointed out, we are reminded of Israel's line on Hamas fighters "hiding" among Palestinians. The idea that dozens and dozens of people detained from one apartment building are all gang members is totally batshit.

Yes, it's the same playbook. You are not insane for noticing.

Israeli settlers burn Palestinian home, fell olive trees in West Bank There have been more than 2,400 settler attacks on Palestinian property since October 2023, with over 3,000 displaced.

Feds detain dozens of immigrants in 'massive' South Shore apartment building raid in Chicago • The TRiiBE An estimated 40 people were taken by federal agents in the course of the overnight raid in the predominately-Black neighborhood.

NEW — An estimated 40 people were taken by federal agents in an overnight raid in South Shore, a predominantly-Black neighborhood on Chicago’s South Side.

A couple who live nearby said they were shocked to see the enormous militarized raid in their community.

I’ve feared this take getting traction and luring people into complacency. The most likely situation here is the Feds are just getting started. I’m sure this felt good to post but isn’t likely true.

I found this post really helpful in wrapping my brain around the different agencies that might do Chicago raids.

The biggest takeaway: A lot of attention is on the the National Guard. But federal LEO's (ICE, FBI, etc.) can exert just as much (if not more) muscle & there's less to stop them.

I'm not familiar with this app, but this piece is another reminder of the importance of verifying ICE sightings, which the Family Support Network in Chicago does (hotline: 855-435-7693).

Sharing unverified reports with few details can be actively unhelpful and spread unnecessary fear.

Mapping Community Defense and Care in Our Neighborhoods This worksheet can help us prepare for Trump's military interventions at the neighborhood level.

Last night, about 60 Chicago activists and organizers gathered to discuss Trump's threatened military occupation of our city. Our convo centered around a worksheet that some friends and I put together this week—a tool that can help us build and strengthen local networks of support and protection.

Pentagon Working On Plans For Military Deployment In Chicago, Washington Post Reports The Defense Department planning, in the works for weeks, involves several options, including mobilizing at least a few thousand members of the National Guard as soon as September, the Post reported.

Been seeing people say that this is a sign of regime weakness not strength. But spectacle is a big part of fascism and humans aren't brave. The point of this in a visual age is to ensure that people think 'if they do this for something so petty, then there's no way I'll do anything'
