if you joined ICE I don't think you just get to melt back into society ever again. I think it should be the albatross around your neck for the rest of your life. I sure as hell won't hire anyone who worked for ICE. hope that signing bonus lasts

"what are we going to do with 20,000 ICE agents if we abolish ice" well to start with I think we should all literally spit on them in public for the rest of their lives

Need a quick break from the bad news?

2: kittens!

▪️ abolish ice

▪️ arrest murders

Yes, fully agree with Ed. There is not now, nor has there ever been, convincing evidence that COVID-19 causes additional immune impacts beyond the acute period that make you more susceptible to future infections.
I have no interest in trying to dunk on anyone but there is absolutely no evidence for this at all.

SARS-CoV-2 has not been demonstrated to make you more susceptible to other infections by impairing the function of your immune system.

So "Abolish Ice" is not a position that depends on lefty anti-carceral stuff, it's not a position that depends on no person is illegal, etc. etc. It is a rational, the only rational, position to take on a dramatically empowered unaccountable violent strike force

There are people who don't know, who didn't know. Moments like these are when they learn, and a window opens for people who want to turn their hunger for justice into action, for our numbers to increase. Stay mad and don't get jaded, in my opinion, get the newly passionate on board. 2/2

they’re abducting our neighbors and putting them in concentration camps and they’ll shoot you in the fucking face if you don’t cheer them on while they’re doing it.

ICE is accusing the woman who was shot to death by an ICE agent today in Minneapolis of "weaponizing her vehicle" and "attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them -- an act of domestic terrorism"

Extremely graphic, but this is the most clear angle I've seen of this straight-up murder.

The woman's car wheels turn away, and the ICE officer SHOOTS HER ANYWAY. In broad daylight. Impunity.

This is the bloodthirsty fuck who fired the gun MULTIPLE times:

Maybe it's smart that Mark Carney is keeping his cards close to his chest, but if he's going to keep talking like an unemotional banker in public about our neighbour's coups and invasion threats, he needs to appoint a Minister of Speaking from the Heart To Make Canadians Feel Safe and Secure.

What caught my attention was when some of the Covid conscious rhetoric about three years ago started to sound similar to anti-vax rhetoric, with similar grave-robbing for long "died suddenly" threads. It was just as insensitive and exploitive as the anti-vax 'died suddenly' version.

these grifters have polarized a lot of people & generated a lot of anger against public health workers. this gets them money and attention, plus an excuse to sleep at night. but fundamentally, it’s the same business & social model as MAHA, just in a different political context. :(

disabled people and people with long covid deserve real help that makes real changes in outcomes, not pseudoscience. we’ve gotten very little of the former and heaps of the latter. it’s inexcusable. i fear for our future as eugenics grows in popularity

i literally watched this conspiracy theory develop in realtime on twitter back in 2021. and how it spread like wildfire among vulnerable people, including the long covid and disability circles i was in. it also really depressed me because it foreshadowed today & who gets targeted by MAHA

9. Take every opportunity you can to participate in civic life. Linger in and enjoy good parks, places, and streets every day, not just during special events. Your very presence and engagement adds life, vitality, and safety to a place, and helps them be more enjoyable for everyone.

Minnesota has released it's #SingleStair report
www.dli.mn.gov/sites/defaul...

129 pages of fire safety modelling, but my takeaway:

1. Well maintained sprinklers are important
2. Number of stairs isn't important
3. Hallways are the problem (and current code allows for crazy long hallways)

hey remember when a bunch of middle-aged drunk korean lawmakers climbed the locked gates to the national assembly to hold an emergency session after the president gave illegal orders to the military, all of which ended with said president being sentenced to prison

I'm entirely serious about this: until you internalize the view that urban America is Real America, you won't see the urgency of structural reform of an American government whose fundamental structures so disadvantage its population centers—the great engines of its prosperity, progress, & culture.
Another good practice for the New Year would be for all the non-fascists in America who want to opine about politics to really begin believing that urban America is Real America & that its denizens are The Authentic People. Get some self-respect & drop the volkish nationalist view that they're not
And I think liberals should stop taking the bait and ceding ground on immigration.

Immigration is good. Multiculturalism is good. Free trade is good. Stop being embarrassed to say so.
