the feds want to kidnap and murder people. their goal is spreading terror and destroying lives. your constituents are endangering themselves to protect each other every day, and you’re a mealy-mouthed bitch if this is the only fucking thing you can think to say about it
State investigators have been on the scene in North Minneapolis.

I know you’re angry. I’m angry. What Donald Trump wants is violence in the streets.

But Minnesota will remain an island of decency, of justice, of community, and of peace.

Don’t give him what he wants.

This is actually demonic & should strike as corrosive to the souls of anyone who considers themselves American. It’s the most dishonorable act imaginable.

It’s beyond disgusting.

chat is it good if you buy a car that has no accident on the carfax, and an inspector finds no evidence of collision damage, and then you find out your wiper fluid reservoir is cracked because the front bumper support apparatus was bent into the reservoir indicating a front-end collision??

incredibly embarrassing when a local figure’s racist texts can be easily photographed from a row behind him, and it’s in the news and going viral, and your phone’s font size is as big as his because your vision is just real fucking bad for reading anything

a couple years ago my usual Walgreens location told me they were out of stock and I needed to call other pharmacies to see who had any stock for me. bless the friend who offered to call around for me and found stock at the downtown Target so I could function

Border Patrol shot two people about a half mile from where my close friend and favorite 7yo live. I don’t really have coherent thoughts except that DHS needs to be fucking razed to the ground, and also we should all be building trust with our real life neighbors

ICE surveillance is directly connected to ICE violence. One of the most concrete things that progressive leaders can do in cities targeted by ICE is work to roll back surveillance ASAP:

-Cancel contracts with Flock
-Ban facial recognition
-End private camera registries
-Data privacy protections

And we said abolish ICE too. ICE is not inevitable, its existence is not settled —even as it fortifies the settler state. Historically speaking, that ain’t certain either.

Walz is happily doing the work of manufacturing consent on behalf of the feds with this statement
Governor Walz says he's prepared to deploy the Minnesota National Guard if protests become violent in reaction to ICE fatally shooting a woman in Minneapolis.

"We will not take the bait," adds Walz, saying he's also angry but demonstrations should remain lawful.

my brain has always fought me on audiobooks/podcasts & I've never enjoyed them. I asked reddit how to become an audiobook girlie and all the advice is about sticking to "easy" fiction where the details don't matter, and only listening to good narrators. I think I am doomed on the reading front, lads
my eyesight is really getting worse and getting new glasses every year isn’t really keeping up with it. at the point where I’m ready to purge all my paper books because I simply cannot read them for longer than 30 minutes
