I guess I should do an ✨intro✨ and pin it to the top! I am gaining more followers than I expected to (and some of you are even real people, I think!) So, here's all the relevant information about me and my posting habits 🧵:
I wouldn't be able to make it a week because I can't handle the gym without them and I need the gym lol.

People can't go to church in places like Minneapolis, but here's a bishop blithering on about Trump's "religious liberty commission"
Während sich Papst Leo XIV. und andere US-amerikanische Bischöfe an die Seite der Menschen stellen, die von ICE verfolgt werden, huldigt Pieper-Preisträger Robert Barron US-Präsident Donald Trump.

I hate the "women only like tall men" thing because 1. As if men have no preferences, & 2. It is overblown. I have dated men 5'2-6'4. It doesn't matter much.

THEY'RE CALLED ICE COOP. BUNCH OF COCKAMAMIE BOOTLICKERS WHO THINK THEY SAVE THE REPUBLIC BY TERRORISING PEOPLE, INSTEAD OF BY SHOWING LOVE AND RESPECT TO THEIR FELLOW HUMANS. TO MY MIND THEY'RE NOTHING LESS THAN THE REINCARNATION OF A-DOLF HITLERS BROWN SHIRTS AND AS WELCOME AS DOG DIRT ON MY BOOT.

Two white friends tail me home if it's outside the hours when people are out and about. I'm damn near third generation Minnesotan. It's not just "you're a citizen you'll be fine." I'm a black woman alone. Who knows what they will do.
I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

A big THANK YOU to our employee Lacy as well as Kaleb Lutterman, and the local 3D printing makers who've been keeping us supplied with anti-ICE whistles.

And thank you to everyone who's stopped by to pick one up! You're making a huge difference in this very difficult time.

If you've been in the Twin Cities these past few months, there's a good chance you've heard the high-pitched tone of little plastic whistles used by protestors to alert others when federal agents are ...

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.
