I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

REP. OMAR after being attacked with liquid: “We will continue! These fucking assholes are not gonna get away with this! Here is the reality people like this ugly man don’t understand — we are Minnesota Strong. We’ll stay resilient in the face of whatever they might throw at us.”

casual reminder that Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband were assassinated seven months ago, and Senator Hoffman and his wife were seriously injured that day as well, and both of those things were outcomes that the current administration wants to happen again
someone just tried attacking rep ilhan omar at her town hall in north minneapolis, reportedly trying to spray her with something, but was tackled before he could get to her. she returned to speaking

They're so ANGRY that we take care of each other, and not just angry.

So CONFUSED by it.

This cannot be "reformed". The tree is rotten, from twig to root.
MUST WATCH: “If you raise your voice, I will erase your voice.” Said by ICE in Minneapolis. That sentence alone should terrify anyone pretending this country isn’t sliding into authoritarian garbage.

I don’t think passing Tom Homan off as a professional is going to work. He has the look of a stepped-on old potato. He can’t help but sound the bell warning “drunk distant uncle at the family function.”

"I think this may me a headfake. They may me shifting their tactics but they’re not shifting their policy," says Minneapolis City Council President Elliott Payne on Bovino leaving the city, yet DHS apprehensions continuing and agents attempting to enter the Ecuadorian consulate without permission.

“The $65 billion should be placed in an unmarked federal appropriations bill—if it isn’t, that will be the end of your precious Minnesota,” read the note, a handmade letter assembled from magazine clippings and sent with what ICE claimed was the severed finger of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.

5. ChatGPT has bullshitted them into believing that they're the next genius—but unlike previous generations of crackpot letter writers, they don't even pretend to understand their own "discoveries". They simply tell me that ChatGPT has a proof and they need my help getting the word out to the world.

4. As such, talk doing about vibe science makes no more sense than talk about doing vibe mathematical proofs.

As it happens, I get a lot of email from people doing vibe science already. They are convinced that they've discovered the fundamental truths that Darwin and Einstein missed.

1. The thing about science that these jokers don't understand is that science cannot be vibe-coded.

Whatever its flaws, the point with vibe coding is that you're trying to quickly make something that sorta works, where you can immediately sorta see if it sorta works and then sorta use it.
“The idea is to put ChatGPT front and center inside software that scientists use to write up their work in much the same way that chatbots are now embedded into popular programming editors.

It’s vibe coding, but for science.”

Prism is a ChatGPT-powered text editor that automates much of the work involved in writing scientific papers.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

We're seeing the same thing here in Maine. People unable to buy groceries or pay for rent because they don't dare leave their homes. Mutual aid and non-profits are jumping in, volunteers are ready, but there's just so much need. My heart breaks and is full of rage at the same time.
Minneapolis has seen a stunning 1,646% spike in calls from families who can't pay rent because they're afraid to leave their homes to work.

This is state violence manufacturing housing precarity in real time.

People should not be facing eviction when their city is under occupation.

it is the same playbook everywhere. “vote for us! we will make you great again by punishing the people you hate! do not pay attention to the fact that we’re also shoveling your money into the pockets of the uber wealthy and building a giant boot to step on your face too (preferably forever)”
The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions.

It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.

It’s like they don’t know what RICO is
Posters put up in West Hollywood where people were kidnapped by ICE have been vandalized, presumably by ICE. They’ve been torn and written on sharpie is “RICO CRIME - STOP POSTING”

needless to say, taping a poster to a pole warning of ICE kidnappings is not a RICO violation and is, in fact, protected first amendment speech
