On top of everything, be prepared for a deluge of fake news screenshots and AI-generated footage. It's going to be both pro- and anti-war, and it must be harrowed out. DO NOT REPOST ANYTHING YOU HAVEN'T CONFIRMED.

If this year was about getting off US tech, 2026 is the year to reassess the digital revolution — what works, what doesn’t; what to keep, and what to reject.

I’ve only just started to consider what needs to change about how I use digital technology, but I’m excited to learn more next year.
We need to reassess our relationship to digital tech
Getting off US tech led me to a wider questioning of digital convenience

Beyoncé is a billionaire and also has expressed extreme anti-Native sentiment several times

Her husband is literally trying to destroy Native sovereignty in NYC for his casino project

These are not good people. Talented? Yes.

The #1 movie when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go.

Couldn't be happier with this coming to pass.
All of them guilty. All of them banished.

From the new HBO documentary Thoughts & Prayers that looks into the impact of the $3 billion active shooter preparedness industry on schools and communities.

If you're not American/don't live in the US, I'm asking you to please not comment.

pretty much

I have some non-negotiables (such as trans rights) but my number one issue in the next D primary is “will you actually fight back”

if any moderates are on the fight side of the fight/don’t fight axis now would be a good time to demonstrate it
I would vote for a moderate if I thought they would end the filibuster, pack the court, and use every lever available to them to keep the GOP out of power. if the leftists are the ones promising that, I'll vote for them instead.

I needed a thread like this to pull me out of creeping despair.
Organized, targeted boycotts are a great and important tool in this moment. Organizing to take action, all kinds of action, is crucial.
But I want to complicate the picture a little. 🧵
There is a disconnect in America today: Trump is deeply unpopular facing mass resistance from citizens. But elites keep rolling over for Trump anyway.

What to do? An organized boycott campaign.

Here's how it would work, and why it could very well change elite behavior www.vox.com/politics/466...

I expect DHS/CBP/ICE to grant the request and then go ahead with the kidnappings anyhow.
IL Gov. JB Pritzker is asking DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and other ICE & Border Patrol officials to suspend Midway Blitz operations through Halloween weekend.

In Jan. 2024, Pritzker asked TX Gov. Greg Abbott to stop busing migrants to Chicago amid a cold snap.

Abbott's office rejected that request.
