Very funny that for a certain type of conservative, their "great reckoning" mostly amounts to increasingly confusing Starbucks names
The "everyone is 12" thesis of American political dysfunction remains undefeated in 2026.

this means that organized labor is calling for a regional general strike yes, and there’s every reason to believe they can actually pull it off in Minneapolis inthesetimes.com/article/minn...
The Most Important Labor Story Right Now Is in Minnesota—It Might Be the Model We All Need
A strategic alignment of major networks of unions and community groups in Minnesota have worked together for more than a decade to leverage their collective power.

One time someone relayed the Pagliacci story to me and I was politely pretending I wasn't familiar but they kept saying "pagucci" instead of Pagliacci and I believe that me getting through the final line of that particular telling without laughing is one of mankind's great achievements

It's particularly galling to call for ICE to wear body cams when Renee Good's murder literally recorded the whole thing on his phone. He was so confident in his impunity as part of that organization that he recorded and allowed for the release of footage of him shooting a woman at point blank.

Our entire opposition party would rather live in a denial in a miserable system than accept the discomfort that would come with trying to change it
🚨NEWS: Senate Dems are reportedly offering ICE funding increases in exchange for body cams and de-escalation training for agents.
Body cams can be turned off. De-escalation training can be ignored.
Unclear if no masks, requiring ID badges, and no immunity is on the table.

The 2016 trend has made me positive that in 4 years we're going to have to deal with pandemic nostalgia and I'm just not ready for kids to start calling stuff Covid-core

Not particularly interested in revisting 2016 but that was the year I did a work exchange in Norway on a wool farm so I'll always take a chance to post da sheep

Can't tell if it's internet panic or not, should I finally buy a new computer (slightly overdue) because of incoming RAM shortages or will I be able to do that for awhile longer yet

Bovino seems evil enough to not be super fazed but you know some of those masked guys have to be starting to crack. Just walking around all day having people tell you that everyone in the city is imagining bad things happening to them...lotta stress for guys whose brains are the size of an egg

There's a man who spent his night at the hospital because tear gas and flash bangs from the American government caused his six month old child to stop breathing. How is half of this directed at your own people, Tim?

If the last couple days show anything, it's that they are prepared to contend with large, organized marches, they're prepared for people to yell at them online and post Andor gifs, they're not prepared for people to fight back, to find them where they're taking people and scream in their faces.

Here's the deal going forward. If you've ever in any capacity voted to fund ICE or confirm Trump appointees: Congratulations! We are no longer in the same party! I don't care who you claim to represent, I don't care "how the game is played," you are pathetic to me and will never receive my vote.

Minneapolis Is in Mourning. It’s Also Very, Very Pissed Off
In the hours after an ICE officer shot and killed Renee Nicole Good, the city came together — and found a difficult balance of grief and rage.

Shocked that this needs to be said but if you're writing about what's happening in Minneapolis, do not use AI to generate images of protestors clashing with ICE. There are hundreds of photographers on the ground now posting real photos. The last thing the protestors need is more misinfo circulating

My coverage from Minneapolis for @rollingstone.com is live. I spent the latter part of last week and some of the weekend watching as the city's people came together to figure out how to honor an innocent woman who shouldn't have died while figuring out how to protect itself from what's coming.

Seeing every news outlet (even pundits I loved at the time like Jon Stewart) turn Occupy into a punchline was one of my bigger radicalizing moments I think
Remembering when this caused outrage and furore; we've fallen so much further since 😖

Last week, I drove to Minneapolis to spend a few days reporting on the aftermath of Renee Nicole Good's murder for Rolling Stone. What I saw was a city forced to grieve a horrible loss while simultaneously strategizing to protect itself from the ICE reinforcements to come.

Always promised myself I'd never become a "kids these days" guy but that was back when I thought it meant stomaching some music I didn't like rather than completely surrendering the concept of media literacy and letting people do that thing where they sway like a video game character

Its so crazy that America is fighting a ground war with itself. Just full on troop movements happening between cities, reinforcements being shuffled around the midwest, all in an attempt to plunge a dagger into our own leg.
ICE totaled this car, abducted a woman, and then left it in the middle of Snelling Avenue, one of the busiest streets in the Twin Cities.
This isn’t law and order, this state sanctioned terrorism. It’s fucking disgusting.
