All politicians do performative acts of service.

Some choose to do pull-ups with soldiers while calling them "war fighters" and ignoring all of their worth and value other than hate and killing.

Some choose to participate in homeless sweeps, and revel in throwing away what little people have left.

Folks outside the US who want to find a way to help, this is a good start.
Advocate for your nations to boycott the World Cup and the Olympics. Do not travel here. Get your pension funds to sell their US treasury bonds. Boycott American products. USA big businesses needs to understand the cost of propping up this despotic regime.

Renee Good's last words were "I'm not mad at you, bro"

Alex Pretti's last words were "are you okay?"

I am mad.

I am not okay.

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.
As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

Let's be perfectly clear: every single Republican in Congress who allows this to continue without removing this president and prosecuting these lawless ICE murderers, is declaring their allegiance to a tyrant, and themselves enemies of the very Constitution they swore to defend.

For those who can, here are links to donate directly to local efforts on the ground resisting ICE's terrorizing of Minneapolis. Let me know what you donated to where, and I'll match it until I get a panicked call from my bank!

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

This is nothing less than violent mob extortion by the Trump regime of a state that voted against Trump three times and exposes any so-called concern about immigration issues in Minnesota as a lie.
Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

A reminder: If you do experience something traumatic, studies have shown that playing Tetris afterward helps prevent PTSD symptoms.

I don't use Tetris myself, but do have a match-3 renovation game on my phone for such situations. It does help me.

Question for anyone who watched Andor s2:

Does anyone else feel that the situation in Minnesota right now is an attempt to perpetrate the climactic events on Ghorman, but in real life?

If you lose power in this winter storm, freeze water in containers outdoors or pack snow in containers. Make room in your refrigerator for them, and change them out as needed. It will extend the shelf life of your food. ❄️🥶❄️

Minnesota is showing the way. #ICEout #AbolishICE ✊🏻
It's -20 in Minneapolis and organizers are in the streets before dawn getting ready for actions related to the general strike. They've had locals training out-of-town volunteers on how to prepare for and endure the cold. AND IT IS WORKING. THE STRIKE IS HAPPENING. THE CITY IS DOING THE DAMN THING...

This is the first example I’ve seen of an American government using AI to meaningfully misrepresent actual events with the intent to deceive the public. We are at Stalinesque levels of propaganda.

And the boys (who weren't born yet or were about *three*) who missed the *original* He-Man room, run by the fabulous Art Nadel, would have been HORRIFIED by how female-friendly/feminist the original writing team was. (I should know. My office was down the hall. I drew the first map of Eternia.) 😏
all the dudes bitching about "woke He-Man" should watch the woke He-Man we already got like three year ago, aka the animated Kevin Smith Netflix one about A) the crushing emotional toll that toxic masculinity takes on Adam and B) a squadron of absolutely jacked ladies dominating the whole plot

What we already knew, and what Jack Smith confirms, is that Trump is guilty of sedition, treason, incitement of violence, incitement of insurrection, an attempted coup, obstruction of justice, fraud, and election tampering.

Trump remains ineligible to hold office and should be imprisoned.
