A pixelart of a humanoid creature in a snowy landscape, with the upper body of a stern falcon, wings spread out and three pairs of arms with raptorial talons, some crossed over its body and some gesturing around floating, glowing balls of energy. There is a black band of short feathers around its waist, and below are its relatively unelegant human legs with a texture of rough clay Commissioned by @ hiveshin (tumblr) Side-view of a shadowy figure with lanky limbs and black tangled hair, looking at the viewer with an ambiguous side-eye and crawling forward (viewer's left) while a chaotic stream of bloody hands erupts from the area of its mouth (and possibly throat) and reaches out, splitting in uneven fractals into more and more fingers and hands, some of which lean on the ground A figure, back to the viewer, standing in the moonlit field of grass with arms outstreched and their shining skin almost merging with the moon in the center of the picture. Below the waist the skin of the figure unravels into (or is not yet sewn from) blades of grass wrapping around the bones Pixelart of the giant Mongolian Death Worm from Dandadan - an enormous earthworm "staring" at the viewer from among the ruins with its eye-like maw of human teeth, surrounded by a circle of tentacle/rays/eyelashes, radiating an aura/korona/iris of dazzling, nauseating yellow light

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.
FORM A CROWD STAY LOUD PROTECT EACH OTHER CODE I: ICE NEARBY BLOW QUICKLY IN A BROKEN RHYTHM: PRE-PRE-PRE! → ALERTS THE COMMUNITY THAT ICE AGENTS ARE IN THE AREA. ROGERS PARK WHISTLE PROTOCOLS WHY A WHISTLE? ON THE STREETS • A SIMPLE TOOL FOR FAST ALERTS. • LOUD. RECOGNIZABLE. IMPOSSIBLE TO IGNORE. • OUR VOICES ARE STRONGER TOGETHER. WHISTLES GUIDE PEOPLE TO: • FOLLOW ICE CARAVANS • CATCH UP WITH THE CROWD • ALERT NEIGHBORS TO JOIN IN NOISE = VISIBILITY. CODE 2: CODE RED BLOW THREE LONG BLASTS: PREEEE-PREEEE-PREEEE! → ICE IS DETAINING SOMEONE. FORM A CROWD, STAY LOUD. DON'T STAY SILENT. STAY NONVIOLENT. WHY IT WORKS • INSTANT ALERT SYSTEM • FASTER THAN SOCIAL MEDIA • TURNS SILENCE INTO COMMUNITY ACTION ORIGINAL FLYER CREATED BY: WHAT YOU CAN DO • WEAR YOUR WHISTLE AROUND YOUR NECK TEACH FAMILY EIGHBORS TH CODES • USE IT WHEN ICE IS SPOTTED • PROTECT EACH OTHER, ALWAYS TOGETHER, WE KEEP OUR COMMUNITY SAFE.

One of America’s bloodiest labor battles, the Homestead Strike left 10 dead and 60+ wounded.

Workers were expecting negotiations. But Carnegie’s partner Frick sent hundreds of Pinkertons with rifles and a Gatling gun to retake the steelworks.

New from 404 Media: Apple just removed ICEBlock, the app for reporting sightings of ICE, from its App Store after DOJ pressure. ICEBlock's developer tells me "we are determined to fight this."

“Fuck them kids.”

That’s literally what an ICE agent said when ICE, the FBI et al. raided an apartment in Chicago, including with a Blackhawk helicopter, separated children from their parents, and zip-tied them to each other.

bangs. "They was terrified. The kids was crying. People was screaming. They looked very distraught. I was out there crying when I seen the little girl come around the corner, because they was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other," Watson said. "That's all I kept asking. What is the morality? Where's the human? One of them literally laughed. He was standing right here. He said, 'f*** them kids.'" Watson said trucks and military-style vans were used to separate parents from their children. Other neighbors said agents destroyed property to get in the building. "They had a big, 15-inch chainsaw with round blade on it, cutting this fence down," said witness Darrell Ballard. "We're under siege. We're being invaded by our own military."

Die Türen kosten so 1.500€ extra.
Die Kopfstützen 1.450€ zusätzlich.
Der hakelnde Theater Modus ist für 6.750€ zu haben.
Da man bei runter gefahrener Glotze nix mehr durch den Innenspiegel sieht gibt es nen digitale für 1.200€ extra.

A digital drawing featuring some little panels with landscapes insidethem, a big flower, and a vase of flowers. In one of the landscape is a person with a beret and a backpack, and in the other a kite is flying around the landscape. On top of all of it is the text "let the wind carry you to where you're meant to go".

Autofahrer fragen entgeistert, warum sie den ÖPNV mitfinanzieren sollten, obwohl sie ihn gar nicht nutzen, während gleichzeitig wir alle ihre Parkplätze, Straßen, Unfälle, ihre Luft- und Lärmverschmutzung & ihre Klimaschäden laut Studien mit jährlich 5000€ pro Auto subventionieren und ertragen muss.

WHY do I promote indies so much? The answer is simple. There are too many games. I just want to share cool stuff that's out there.
