Just woke up from a tense dream where I kept having to save some random man from himself because he was repeatedly attempting to use Pokemon cards in real combat situations. Still irrationally irritated at said fictional man.
Heading over to grab this $10 bundle for a good cause. You coming with?

It’s more than disappointing to see people mocking the red knit hats.
1. The symbol was strong enough the Nazis banned them to stop people signaling their resistance to each other.
2. Sales of patterns have raised hundreds of thousands for mutual aid.
3. Not everyone can stand, shout, smuggle.
Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

Just a quick update from the Twin Cities. (Please forgive the unsolicited message). THINGS ARE NOT BETTER IN MINNEAPOLIS. The media is mostly moving on, Trump is focused on other stuff, BUT NOTHING HAS CHANGED ON THE GROUND. More than 2,000 DHS thugs continue to roam the streets, abducting people 24/7, assaulting legal observers with impunity, and routinely denying 1st, 4th, and 5th amendment rights. Drones and helicopters are overhead every day. Hundreds and hundreds of terrified families have not left their homes since mid-December ... relying on the community to bring them food and help with rent and other necessities. (Those people are NOT violent drug cartel sex offending murderers, as DHS would tell you. Most are legal residents or citizens.) If anything, things have just become more stressful and intractable (think trench warfare as a suitable metaphor): The resistance is better organized and numerous, but DHS has become more clever and better at disguise... and the county sheriff's office is increasingly supporting them . Do not let anyone tell you that Homans (the new person in charge of the occupation) is making anything better. Do not let anyone tell you that 700 ICE agents leaving the city has made much of a difference; the remaining force (again, ~2,000) is still larger than the entire city's police force (which is legally unable to do anything). Please call your congressional reps ... especially if there is any chance the administration might listen to them.
A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:
Shot from the stands of the Bad Bunny halftime show.
What a moment.

NEW: A Texas county medical examiner found that Geraldo Lunas Campos was choked to death by a guard while he was held in ICE custody earlier this month.
Geraldo is the sixth person to die in ICE detention this year.
Students, who have been among the tens of thousands resisting terror in Minnesota, have called for a nationwide shutdown on Friday, January 30.
No school.
No work.
No shopping.
they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.
A doctor who witnessed the shooting submits a sworn declaration in federal litigation to halt ICE surge in MN:
"I did not see him attack the agents or brandish a weapon of any kind."
and
"The victim had at least three bullet wounds in his back."

A cartoon of a news report. The picture shows a government official doing a press conference flanked by goons. The headline reads “A man attacked federal bullets with his body” Underneath the picture is a quote saying “those bullets had families”

Being clear: she is very brave.
If you are disabled, you need to know that you are not safe from police escalation. In fact, historically, you are more of a target. They love to say mobility aids are threats.
Do not let anyone guilt you into risking your life—that is a choice only you can make.
A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
Valid and good that you’re honoring where you’re at. Wish you good blobbing. 💛

Do. Not. Do. This.
First of all, Auschwitz and the ICE camps are NOT the same. We need to call them what the are and identify them accurately so we can fight them in the right way.
Second of all, HOW DARE YOU do wordplay with death camps where Jews were tortured and massacred.
You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.
Yikes, that’s just foul. Sorry you’ve lost a connection, but sounds like a good call.
Two phone alerts within 3 minutes of each other. The first says take it easy: “you’ve spent 2 minutes in your exertion zone. Take some time to rest if you can.” The second says, “snow soon: expected to start at your location at 11:34 PM.“
Body in functional mayhem for the 2nd night, asked spouse if it’s snowing yet. He said no and I was perplexed, figured it was temp change or barometric shit, and then I got these alerts together (top is heart rate fuckery tracked via Visible app). There it is. My body always knows. #POTS #disability
Yesterday, over 30,000 people protested against ICE in below-zero temperatures. Amazing work, everyone. Minnesota strong. Tomorrow, there will be more of us.
There were six or seven agents, trying to harm a man who looks unarmed and still they murdered him in broad daylight. These ICE agents are venal, incompetent, cowardly and this type of execution will keep on happening because they are an unchecked paramilitary force of scared men who crave power.
Sources identify man shot as Alex Jeffrey Pretti of south Minneapolis The man fatally shot by federal officers in Minneapolis this morning has been identified as Alex Jeffrey Pretti, according to sources familiar with the investigation. Pretti, 37, has an address listed in south Minneapolis. At a news conference, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara said the man who was shot was a 37-year-old white man with no serious criminal history and a record that showed some parking tickets. Law enforcement sources said Saturday their records show Pretti had no serious criminal history.
The Strib has identified him. Alex Pretti. Another 37-year-old executed for standing up for our immigrant neighbors. For shame.

ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.
What is absolutely clear with this reign of terror, is that ICE and its henchmen are acting with as much blatancy in their display of brutality as possible.
Late season 2 update: Well, shit. Now I’m mad at Wade.
United States Completes WHO Withdrawal WASHINGTON — January 22, 2026 — The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the U.S. Department of State today announced the United States’ completion of its withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO) due to the organization's mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic that arose out of Wuhan, China, its failure to adopt urgently needed reforms, and its inability to demonstrate independence from the inappropriate political influence of WHO member states.
The United States has officially withdrawn from the World Health Organization.
This is a shameful move that puts both Americans and people all over the world at greater risk from disease outbreaks, which require international collaboration to contain.
