public grief interferes with ongoing production/consumption and the profits of billionaires and can lead to questioning the political order, so our “leaders” try to limit its expression
THE OPEN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF GRIEF IS A POLITICAL ACT.
One of the things that genuinely shocked me as I read through surveillance logs for the police is how much of their energy and attention is dedicated to shutting down vigils and other ceremonies of remembrance.

Those of you who still insist on drawing a distinction between ICE and police should be aware that the police are not drawing that distinction.
Thank you for telling us you neither serve nor protect. Thank you for saying the quiet part out loud. That was state murder in broad daylight, captured from multiple angles by multiple witnesses, and the people of Minneapolis have eyes.
You support murder.

it is impossible for mayors or cops to learn positive lessons about protest response because they all have two immovable beliefs:
1. it is evil and childish to hold police officers accountable for violent acts
2. cops must be present at all times during protests
1. it is evil and childish to hold police officers accountable for violent acts

The lesson Frey and Walz were supposed to learn in 2020 was that sending riot police to a peaceful protest creates a confrontation that results in some dipshit cops shooting people in the eye with a gas canister which then we have to goddamn pay for in settlements while also our city burns.

I see the world's Bravest & Most Realistic Liberals have the same problem with 'Abolish ICE' as they did with 'defund the police'
I wonder what slogan they would be comfortable with?
'Tax Credits For ICE Operatives Who Are Assault Free In Designated Protest Zones over a 12 Month Period'?

my take is that I have never done cocaine but seeing “Vance’s twisted and wrongheaded view of Christianity has been repudiated by two popes” printed in one of the country’s largest Catholic publications hits like I imagine cocaine feels
@clairewillett.bsky.social would love to hear your take on this!
Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

The man who literally wrote the book on the use of vehicles as ramming weapons says any claim Good used hers as such is false, and that her execution, followed by the false claim, is "death squad behavior."
🧵In my expert opinion as a researcher of vehicle ramming attacks, what has been publicly described in the video evidence does not support the claim that Renee Nicole Good was attempting a deliberate ramming attack when she was shot in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. 1/7

Precisely. These are not reachable people. Fox News watchers are of the same mindset as the people who clapped with glee as Hitler turned on the gas chambers. Chasing after them is fucking dumb.
This is what people on Fox are like. People watch Fox because they like this.
Jesse Watters highlights that Renee Nicole Good, the woman killed by ICE, had "pronouns in her bio" and "leaves behind a lesbian partner and a child from a previous marriage"

“WAGMI” — we're all gonna make it — was crypto's 2021 rallying cry. But those with wealth and power knew it was a lie, and that “all” just meant them. My latest traces the last five years from hype to technoligarchy — and why they're not all gonna make it either.
The year of technoligarchy
In 2025, Trump brought tech executives into power to dismantle regulators and write their own rules. But the instabilities they’re creating may be their downfall.

not to go all identity politics but I think it’s also because the victims are women
one takeaway from the grok noncon porn thing is that much of the media just isn't interested in an issue they can't pretend has two sides or that doesn't give them an opportunity to shit on the left. Also it would be uncomfortable to justify remaining on twitter after acknowledging it

1) it’s rough that every day we get at least 3 examples of how the biggest dumb-dumbs are running the show here.
2) so what happens when DOJ boofs this? Does Rodriguez just give up the presidency (assuming she’s still got it)? Does he lead a coup? A secret 3rd thing?

"Money can't buy happiness" was meant as an admonishment of the rich. They turned it around to tell the poor to stop whining.
Fun Fact: They did a study in the 2000s and there's a money-happiness bell curve that peaked at $200k/year. More than that, less happy. Less Than $75k, a LOT less happy.

Anyone who says money can’t buy you happiness has never lived a life such that approximately £1200 would fix 90% of your current worries

ICE is no longer arresting immigrants only. They are arresting anyone who films or speaks out. Sending them to concentration camps. I have been criticized for my analogy to 1930’s Germany. That is what we are witnessing.
