+++ #Imbolc Blessings - Sun 1st Feb 2026 +++

Imbolc marks the Celtic beginning of Spring and the stirrings of new life.
It is Feile Brighde, the quickening of the year. The original word Imbolg means in the belly. All is pregnant and expectant. The promise of renewal, the earth awakening & rebirth

Audre Lorde and Batman, twin heroes of the resistance.

What a fucking photo, y'all.

Two kittens sleeping in a dim room, one on a cat scratcher platform, one on her back between a person's denim clad leg and pillows. Both kittens are orange and white.

Two kittens on a sofa curled up next to a human's legs and hands. One kitten is pale orange and white, the other is more white but has deep orange patches

Fri. Jan. 30 edition: I'm Coreo. I can't work full-time anymore, and I need help paying down my revolving debt. Can you share these kittens and share my GFM link at the same time? Thank you! gofund.me/4903591f2

My entire social existence is summed up in these two flags

Artwork of "Witte Wieven", five ethereal female forms, playing music, standing on a river and riverbank. The background consists of an upward slope, some shrubbery on the top, ending in a cloudy sky. The overall theme is dark and gloomy. Sombre colours.

'Witte Wieven dance to and fro,
hear the rhythm of the wild sways
and the murmuring of their speeches
around the witches' bowl.'
-Joannes Reddingius (translated)

A digital illustration of an attempt to make a fake illuminated manuscript. There’s a fancy illuminated drop capital M. Lots of medieval-type ornamentation, a little illustration in the corner of a rabbit with a battle ax having some sort of confrontation with a little bipedal lizard thing that has an arm instead of a neck and head which is holding a dagger. There’s an orange dragonish beast wrapped around the top of everything and lettering done in some kind of fanciful script reading ‘Maybe it will happen today’

A digital illustration. Seen mostly in silhouette (with some hints of detail if you zoom in) we see Sisyphus in his classical Greek togs against a reddish orange background. He is working very hard to shove an extremely large, roughly spherical boulder up a very steep grade. Large letters carved into the side of the boulder facing us read ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

This one hurts a lot. Farewell, Moira Rose. You were EXQUISITE.

I hope they're laughing together today

my only notes to people under 30: your 30s aren't for ditching fandom, they're for re-evaluating all the "cringe" stuff you liked as a teenager through the lens of someone who can appreciate it fully, going, "that owned, actually," and becoming even more unhinged about it. please look forward to it.

How? How do you double-check the accuracy, if you're not already an expert? Ask a different GenAI? Or do you, you know... Have to go and do the research you would have done anyway, pre-AI? Because I'm buggered if I can think of how you do that in a way where the GenAI saved you time.

Imagine having Bruce Springsteen AND Billy Bragg release songs about how much you fucking suck and how much the people fighting you rule you within the same 48 hours

I mean this is exactly the kind of cringe that I think we’ll need to shamelessly and unironically embrace moving into a future of unabashed civic virtue, I feel that on the whole irony-poisoning and rejection of sincerity as embarrassing is part of how we got here

ICE reportedly takes Ypsilanti Community Schools parents into custody ICE agents were reported to be present near an Ypsilanti Community Schools campus Jan. 27, taking several parents into custody while off school grounds.

ICE has been spotted in Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti, taking parents from the latter outside their kids' school. They're in Michigan now and they're starting to take people.

Tell whoever you know in MI. Keep each other safe! And speak to your representatives!

This only gets better soon when they pull back to show the other side.

Trump received 13% of the vote in 2024 in the Minnesota district (in St Paul) that held a legislative race tonight, losing it by 71%.

Today, the GOP nominee got 4%, losing the race by 91%.

Digital illustration drawn in a loose sketchy pencil style of four small, generalized sparrow-type birds of no specific species perching in a tangle of branches. Near each bird are words in a hand drawn blackletter style reading ‘Maybe it’ll happen today’.

"The number of downloads...surged by 529% after Mr. Mamdani’s news conference"

"there had been 3,000 people on a waiting list to access a limited number of e-book copies"

"2,000 people applied for a library card over the weekend, roughly twice as many as had applied by this time last year"

A win!

if you're looking to learn about what are some of the lowest-hanging fruits in terms of local elections in places that directly help ICE, this is for you:

Don’t just unfollow altnps yourself, explain to everyone you know why you are unfollowing them — because they are leechy, scammy, inauthentic bad actors.

This was just me making this comparison yesterday, but today the Korean news is calling Minnesota "America's Gwangju" and have human rights lawyers explaining how America is now living through the dictatorship Korea once had.

Happy Thursday have some Schemers table shenanigans
