There's SO many good reasons to NEVER use Amazon, here's just the most recent one!
While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities.
Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.

Worth emphasizing, as many others have, that the people of Minneapolis did this. NOT Schumer, Jeffries, or any of the institutional Dem party in DC. It's only a small sliver of good news, but we can and should all thank the people of Minneapolis for this small crack in the armor!

As someone who just finished reading @karenhao.bsky.social 'Empire of AI' this is SO spot on!!
I was thinking about this the other day: both DHS and AI have unlimited funding but neither has public support, all both have is money and the backing of anti-human sociopaths

ICE detain yet another minor child—chase him down his own street and tackle him to pavement.
"I am legal! I am legal!" he cries over and over in Spanish.
Agent pins the boy down in snow—he desperately tries to keep his exposed hands from freezing at -25°F wind chill temperature.

Apparently some D's are okay with using kidnapping 5-year olds, and murder. Mind boggling beyond any words. And this is a total failure of leadership from @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social dude just resign you're a fucking joke.
Every representative who voted yes voted for more brutalization of our neighbors, more kidnapping of our children, more trampling of our rights, and more murder from this government.

I watched Mark Carney's speech last night. I'm ready to become Canadian. If they invade the US, I promise I won't get in the way! Just let me know how to transfer all my US documents to Canadian and I'm good to go!

I've posted before about how my Dad and him are about same age and afflicted with same neurological issues. My Dad was never a total asshole but other than that parallels between them right now are striking. My Dad should not be in control of the largest economy in the world. Neither should he!

Not sure why I thought this was a good time to read this. It's amazing, and after reading his most recent book I knew it would be, but SO scarily spot on and relevant it's insane!

So @theatlantic.com made up for horrific RFK cover last month with powerful cover photo from J6 and then powerful essay on institutional knowledge lost since 1/20/25 in the fed govt and pages of interviews with fed workers fired or quit. Absolutely heartbreaking we've lost so much in just 1 year.

It would take FOUR Republican Senators to shut all of this madness down. FOUR. Everything could stop if FOUR individuals had the courage to step up and join Democrats in voting all of this madness down. It's hard to even fathom isn't it? FOUR!!

Honestly let her do it? We're a failing nation right now, the world needs to move on without us. The UK will be just fine aligning with the civilized world until we can restore sanity here. So come on UK, ban X, fuck Musk, call their bluff.

Terrible things are happening everywhere every day but our Gestapo is now openly murdering American citizens in broad daylight and our Nazi leadership is lying about it so openly and brazenly and I'm not sure how we ever recover from this...
Renee Nicole Good, 37, a U.S. citizen, mother, and community member in the Twin Cities, was fatally shot by an #ICE agent in #Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. She was not the target of any investigation and was remembered as a kind, loving person.
