for what its worth, neither Kalshi nor Polymarket have bets on Trump eating it today, so if his inner circle isn't doing insider trading on him dying, he's probably still with us

It’s really hard to bear the contrast on my TL of regular ass Minnesotans doing some of the bravest shit I’ve ever seen in the face of state sponsored terror followed by a deep blue state senator posting: “errrm how does taking Greenland help lower the price of groceries?”

To be politically conscious from 2000-2009, and more specifically from 2001-2005, was to have your brain stamped with a feverish Curse of Knowing. So when you see shit like this, all you can think is “Dick Cheney insisting on links between Al Qaeda and Saddam”. You never forget the scent.

this is an unfriendly reminder that transmeds are a threat to queer solidarity and not to be trusted.
do not call pre-transition or nontransitioning trans people "cissexuals" & their existence doesn't rob other trans people of their ability to transition.
fight a real enemy, not your fellows.

Dems: weve introduced a bill that would require ice agents to wear a top hat and cape during operations. If theyre going to disappear people then well make them dress like magicians
Reporter: what about the disappeared people, any info on them?

the skills that go into creativity are trade/labor skills. the same metrics that you learn carpentry or cooking apply to drawing or singing or acting.
anyone can learn them. anyone can gain experience with them. everyone should be paid for them.

My grievance with the notion of talent is how much it disempowers individuals and how deterministic it is — how it causes most to believe that there is an age limit to learning and developing skills, and most importantly, that it’s not as worthy of trying as a result

it’s one of those fundamentally cursed hospitality violations that you read about in ancient texts
The more I think about this, the angrier I get. It takes a particularly virulent strain of sociopathy to sit and let hard-working people serve you a meal knowing that you plan to arrest them and send them off for deportation once they're off of work.
Really depraved shit.

A few days ago, Fox News was whining about ICE agents getting heckled at a Mexican restaurant in Minneapolis.
Meanwhile, in the town of Willmar, ICE agents had lunch at a Mexican restaurant, waited until it closed, then confronted and arrested three workers as they left.

The fact that there hasn't been an eviction moratorium issued is the sort of thing that lawmakers should be forced to answer for. Abject, unnecessary cruelty in a crisis.
Neighbors in Minneapolis are keeping neighbors housed in the midst of the federal occupation—thousands of dollars are being raised via mutual aid networks to help pay rent.
Meanwhile, the Minneapolis Public Housing Authority filed 38 evictions yesterday against some of our most vulnerable neighbors

I always thought it was a kind of funny (though reasonable) gameplay contrivance that random bad guy patrols would just carry around intel documents that had nothing to do with the mission they were actually on, and now there's egg on my face.
