My buddy took me to Wisconsin and it was preposterously awesome. A chickadee ate from my freaking hand! It was so tiny, it had no weight, I could only feel its tiny talons

I’m curious for more local lore and history about Minneapolis’ most iconic Christmas lights: the Poo Poo Pee Pee house in Northeast. I have only recently incorporated a pilgrimage to this (with running buddies) into my holiday traditions, and it just makes the holiday season complete.

But also, good tidings of great joy! Thousands of Americans are also out tonight, on patrol to keep our neighbors safe. If that’s not the Christmas spirit, nothing is 🎄⭐️
I am trying to wrap my head around the fact that hundreds of American men are currently spending Christmas Eve without their loved ones, roaming our cities to find people to take by violence from theirs. They grew up with the same Christmas TV I did, heard the same music. Unfathomable

How is it possible for any American to get Christmas this wrong? You grew up in a culture! You know what Christmas means!

This solidarity is the purest expression of Christmas spirit I have ever witnessed ⭐️ 🎄
Much respect to all of the Christians taking time out from Christmas Eve to tell ice to go fuck off.

Here’s the good thing: community showed UP. My neighbor took video and photos and connected the abducted man’s partner to Monarca. Within minutes, people from at least 2 different rapid response networks rolled up. Folks gave chase to the ICE guys who took the man and fanned out to look for others
About a half-hour ago, ICE kidnapped a man from the CVS by my house. His pregnant partner was in the car waiting for him. A dozen responders showed up, but we were too late to help

It’s Day 22 of the ICE invasion of MSP.
Today we’ve seen a sharp increase in activity, likely the “surge” we’ve been expecting.
This is the moment to get involved, if you aren’t already.
Carry your whistle. Be ready to respond and defend your neighbors. Connect to your hyper local Signal group.

Keith is a goddamn treasure
in 2026, I'll probably
1) do another repost project on this account of a much smaller daily drawing project I did that's sort of in the same vein
2) start a dedicated Iowa City Police Log comics bsky account and maybe re-repost the existing strips there daily

This idea came to me late. I think it fits really well since Portland Frog Brigade literally carries no weapons and yet ICE has no idea how to respond to them. Just feckless incompetent goons all around.

Our “second-look” teams have helped hundreds of people have a chance at a better life. I am extremely proud of their work.
Yesterday our office hosted our “Season for Second Chances” town hall at North Regional Library.
We unpacked a wide range of “Second-Look Review” topics and pathways to relief after a prosecution including clemency, conviction integrity, expungement, and more
