You have to love how many of the people whose opinions are taken seriously on matters of politics and culture seem to be ignorant of their own ignorance.
To be fair, this kind of thing can happen if you've never actually talked to any women.

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.

My grandfather taught me only a single curse, against my mother's wishes and only after I begged him: "Go bhfása an féar ag do dhoras"

We are community or we are less. We are engines of kindness and connectivity or we are less. When decency is framed as a radical position we must remain who we are. Our resistance is also in refusing to be less openhearted and filled with compassion.

build dual power. no elected dem will save you except maybe zohran because he has a dsa army and that’s still a huge maybe.
There has been an increasing sense in Minneapolis that we are on our own, that our elected representatives are unwilling and/or unable to take action to get these murderous Nazi thugs out of our community. I really hope that changes today. The time for pleading TV hits ended weeks ago.

Another question I came here with was: how effective are the whistles and honking? Does it stop abductions? And the answer is, surprisingly to my cynical self, yes, and often. I have talked to so many people who have successfully interrupted kidnappings.

Whisper networks are better than easily hijacked online ones. This is why neighborhood-driven organization is crucial. Don't wait to talk to your neighbors and local businesses about offline means of tracking important developments.
PSA: Somebody is posting false reports to ICE tracking apps in Seattle. It’s possibly right-wing trolls or ICE themselves.
This one, posted today, included an AI generated photo of ICE at a 7-11. Use caution before sharing.

personal warmth:

- a close layer will protect your skin, a loose layer will trap air that is then warmed by your body
- don't be afraid to go for 'can't put down my arms' levels of layering, nobody is judging you right now

Hi, for those of you unfamiliar with this sort of weather
-if the power goes out, trying to heat your home with the clay pot + candle method is not a great idea, try personal warmth (ie blankets) and blocking and sealing drafty areas instead if you can

Widespread freezing rain and sleet are expected south of the primary snow axis. Significant and damaging ice accumulations are likely, with the potential for long-duration power outages, tree damage, and dangerous travel conditions.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

My group was able to recover a spent canister from a green smoke grenade in Minneapolis. We now confirm with physical evidence that it was a green signaling grenade.

My take on the Jan 23 action in Minneapolis is that I don’t really care whether it’s a “true” general strike (we could argue about that all day).
What DOES matter is that it’s a bold and necessary escalation, and local labor leaders are publicly encouraging workers to join in anti-ICE resistance
