I need $100 for my storage. I tried all week to get something together, but I’m in a work limbo and I still can’t get any local doctors to take my work comp. I’m so tired. Any help is welcome, repost and donations.

Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.
So horrible.
I need something cute.
More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...
Former Washington Post journalists have launched a GoFundMe to help repatriate fired staff members who are effectively stranded in foreign countries.
One of the richest men in the world fired them from the paper and didn’t even pay to ensure they got home.
Abolish the billionaire class:
you will also betray your art
you'll think it's shite
you'll hate it for some reason
but know, that somehow somewhere, someone's heart leaps with joy because of it
and then someday, that someone will be you too
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:
Such a powerful performance.
‘Inoculation’ helps people spot political deepfakes, study finds
theconversation.com/inoculation-...
"...inoculation messages can help people recognize deepfakes and even make people more willing to debunk them."
"...especially important to find ways to reduce the harmful effects of deepfakes."
They have been granted permission by the lack luster response of “our” political leaders.
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. n.pr/4thWiUr
As freezing temperatures swept over West Texas last week, leaky pipeline systems in the Permian Basin of West Texas began to suck in air, spoiling their products, risking an explosion and leading operators to release or burn off vast volumes of gas. insideclimatenews.org/news/3101202...
"It was laughable, if there was something to laugh about," said one of the nurses. "There was no way this person ran headfirst into a wall."
DHS doesn’t even bother trying to lie well. The man whose skull was shattered told the hospital he’d been struck by ICE officers, an ICE officer told hospital staff the guy “got his sh*t rocked,” then when it became clear how badly he was injured, they claimed he deliberately ran into a wall.
heya :D so im opening my commissions again, chat,,, i havent got to work this week because of the roads still being super icy and dangerous for me, so ill have to make up for it. theres 4 slots, fcfs.
I've been hearing this refrain lately about AI-
"Everyone uses it, some people are just honest about it."
Bullshit. I can't stop search 'summaries' popping up, but otherwise it's not something I use or want in my writing process.
Never prompted ChatGPT.
Never spent AI credits on Microsoft/Adobe.
Heartbreaking.
I should check out these small eco-social-systems.
Video from this morning shows ICE agents deploying tear gas outside a Minneapolis preschool as parents shout, “This is a preschool! There’s kids here!”
This or just dumping people *in the woods* AND sending folks out w/o their phone or I.D.
Volunteers w/ Safe Haven wait at the gate & do sweeps of the woods, with warm clothes, a burner, and a ride home, "so no one is left alone at the gate."

Soo much death. So many bright lights and potentials snuffed out.

I’m angry. Just so angry.
NEW: Rx Inspector, our free, searchable tool, allows you to look up where your generic prescription drug was made.
From patients and doctors to researchers, it is already reshaping how people make decisions. “This is a godsend,” one professor told us.
Yeah not downloading that app again.
I’ve been passively active on Red Note for over a year now. So unlike last time I’m not in the new wave of users. How many are new verses return, also unsure.
Will this move last longer? Will the app retain people? Time will tell, as will folks’ ability to monetize their content.
