I don't really know a lot of people here yet partly because I always forget to post stuff here, but anyway, if anyone's inclined, come celebrate my birthday with me at MoguMogu in Asagaya. Live music and great DJs and gluten-free cake while supplies last!

Politicians & some media outlets have latched onto a narrative that recent immigrants, especially undocumented, are causing spikes in crime.

Research does not support the view. In fact, immigrants might have less law enforcement contact compared to native-born Americans.

Data does not support claims that the United States is experiencing a surge in crime caused by immigrants.

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness.

You could be next.

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand

You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen

*Everyone has stories like this*

Hi everyone! Reminder. I'm taking opinions until 12/26 and then I'll be crafting my January schedule (and prepping events beyond). Feel free to weigh in and get a coupon for your hard work! (It's pretty short & lots of questions are optional 😇)
I run a small yoga studio/community space in Tokyo & I'm making my schedule for 2026. I'd love to hear from you about the classes & events you'd like to see next year, including online classes & non-yoga community events. ¥500 coupon to anyone who fills out the form.

We're really really bad about posting on here, but if anyone's up for some experimental pop tonight we're playing in Koenji at a place called Showboat. Great lineup of experimental electronic stuff for those who dig that.

Btw we're on at 7:30!
Happy Halloween from Thing & Wednesday

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

It's a shame to see xenophobia and scapegoating on the rise just about everywhere, but these are great moments to build stronger communities, especially in-person. Online spaces are infested w/ cowards who try to incite hatred. To whatever extent, ignore, block, their opinions are worthless anyway.

Even though this happened two weeks ago I just saw it. ICE shoot a US Marshall. This is how untrained these idiots are.

Friendly reminder! I won't be offering this again until next year sometime. I'm a teeny tiny studio & I can't afford to offer a lot of free trials, but really happy to offer this when I can. I promise no sales pitch or strings attached, just see if my studio is a good fit for you!

I'm not sure if others were annoyed by this, but I didn't like how Frankenstein ended with a Byron quote. Especially after so many things were changed about the original novel, it would've been nice to take a quote from the novel itself or another quote from Mary Shelley. Weird choice imho.

Biking around today and soaking up the autumn vibes was so good. The crunch of the leaves, the oranges yellows and reds, the slight coolness in the air, but not so cold you need layers. love love love it!

We had so much fun playing in costume that we've already booked out MoguMogu again for Halloween next year! (the 31st!) Hope you all have an amazing Halloween...although in this weather, maybe just snuggled up with some yummy treats and some scary movies.

Over 71 million Americans are paid less than a living wage, and are forced into social safety nets like SNAP.

If you think too many people are receiving SNAP benefits, don’t shame them.

Shame their employers paying them poverty wages and forcing taxpayers to subsidize the rest.

@santadharma.bsky.social costumes slowly coming together, but won't reveal. Come down and check it out! Great lineup of musicians & our friend Dreya with incredible music selection. Halloween fun w/o the crowds & chaos. Super cheap if you dress up 😊 If you've never been to MoguMogu...
