I have to let @swiftonsecurity.com and others know the joy that @hellsop.ninehells.com felt after earning a follow from Tay. This is one of the last things in my chat with him from the day he unexpectedly died. This was before the bike ride to the gym; he had a medical emergency on the ride home.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

🔥 From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social : “This is nuts. What the fuck is going on? I’ve never protested in my life… they tell you it’s immigrants — it’s fucking anybody. They’re just trying to scare people. I’m not paid to be here. I have to work in the morning. This is wrong.”

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand

You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen

A red pixel in the snow: How AI solved the mystery of a missing mountaineer
Scouring remote areas for missing walkers and climbers can take rescuers weeks and sometimes months. AI can do the job in a matter of hours in some cases – and potentially save lives.

"The ICE agents who killed Renee and prevented anyone from saving her life had excluded her from their moral community... This is not new in America. We have always had these ebbs and flows, moments when fascistic violence surges and moments when it recedes just enough for us to pretend it’s over."

Civil disobedience is a moral requirement now. We do more after Renee Nicole Good's murder, not less.

Using imagery online of the shooting by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, we’ve created an animated sequence which highlights the approximate positioning of officers and vehicles at the scene. The red dot represents the agent who fired the shots. Yellow dots are other agents who arrived at the scene.

"Systemic violence doesn’t require intent. It requires circumstance." [...] "And the contributing factors are everywhere, hidden in plain sight: wide lanes, high speeds, oversized vehicles, poor visibility, disconnected land use, and streets that prioritize throughput over human life and dignity."

When I don't UNDERSTAND something I get SCARED and ANGRY. Instead of figuring out what these STICKERS are I will decide that they JUSTIFY my RAGE.

🧵In my expert opinion as a researcher of vehicle ramming attacks, what has been publicly described in the video evidence does not support the claim that Renee Nicole Good was attempting a deliberate ramming attack when she was shot in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. 1/7

I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.

He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

Attacking a data center like it’s The Bastille, everyone fleeing with a bushels of RAM to desolder and resolder the chips. One peasant coded guy with a wheelbarrow of SFP+ modules. Manifesting this for 2026.
