TESTED – A surprising history of women’s sports
www.tested-podcast.com
Hello new people! My latest project was a 10+ year labor of love and it would mean the world to me if you checked it out. www.tested-podcast.com

People who aren't in Minnesota might not know that if you drive or walk past pretty much any school, there's going to be a group of people, parents and childless, standing guard to make sure the kids are safe from feds. It's pretty remarkable. And very disturbing. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Jonathan Ross was a firearms trainer and led a team that included multiple federal agencies. All this training didn't stop him from shooting Renee Nicole Good. His training *facilitated* the shooting.
No amount of training will solve the problem that ICE is a violent ethnic cleansing squad.

Democrats are simultaneously beginning to refer to ICE and CBP agents as "poorly trained."
This message comes from leadership. They're trying to use it as a substitute for dismantling ICE and CBP and imprisoning their current employees. Don't fall for it; don't take any Dem seriously who uses it.

America is now at the heavily armed secret police doing warrantless door-to-door house raids in search of undesirable ethnicities and/or political dissenters stage. The difference from well known historical cases is down to scale.
A video of ICE agents conducting door-to-door searches today in Minneapolis
The homeowner requests a warrant repeatedly, is told they don't require one, then is told they're getting it, then the agents storm in anyway
They also point a taser at her to try and disrupt filming

One of the reasons that Chotiner can be Chotiner so effectively is that probably two-thirds of his interviews are actually deep, nuanced conversations with experts, like this one. And that means all the shitheads lie to themselves that THAT'S why they got his call.

The minibus spending bill is out! This is for the Commerce, Justice, Science; Energy and Water Development; and Interior and Environment Appropriations Act, 2026. Notably, there are no restrictions for gender-affirming care or trans care in here.

This reminds me of the time I gave a homeless man outside the local craft brewery a fiver and another customer inside told me "You shouldn't have done that; he's just gonna spend it on alcohol" and I responded "My dude, this is the brewery. We are all here to spend our money on alcohol."
Real convo I've heard:
NYC finance bro: SF sucks. Human 💩 on the street? Get it together.
SF tech bro: But if we add public restrooms, people will do drugs in the bathrooms.
NYC finance bro: Dude *I* do drugs in the restroom! I've done drugs *with you* in the restroom! What are you talking about?

Job growth has been functionally zero over the last five months, as the US sinks from a “low hire, low fire” labor market to a “no hire” one.

Today seems like a fine day to remind folks that through the end of September, 100% of the proceeds from PTKU merch sales in the Shutdown Fullstore (preownedairboats.com) will be donated to Mid-South Trans Nation (www.midsouthtransnation.org) Thank you and Go Blue Sharks

The 🦈 🏳️⚧️ math is simple: We don’t keep any money from any Blue Sharks merch. 100% of what we make from those purchases goes to local/regional orgs supporting trans communities.
(If you want to order non-PTKU merch at the same time you can; any PTKU items will still count towards the donation total)

Not just the encampments. People like Kristof admire the protests that happen ELSEWHERE. They critique those that happen where they live. This is a feature not a bug.

Just saw a content-theft account reposted by someone here. A tip: if their bio says something like, “if you own the original, DM me,” you can tell they are happy to steal, mislead, and profit off other people’s work (and don’t want to be called out about it in public). Personally, I block on sight.

Do not settle for less than abolishing ICE. Not refocusing their work to “real criminals,” not cutting their funding, not retraining them. ICE must go, and any politician asking for less should be shunned.
