"You can't do that."
"Why not?"
"Because it's freaking me out."
That's about it in a nutshell.
This is all so dumb, and so bad, and yet this has been playing in my brain 24/7 for about the last three days.

The Proud Boys, declared a terrorist group in Canada are employed by ICE, after Trump pardoned all the J6ers so they could be ICE agents & his own private Neo-Nazi Militia. #cdnpoli

After seeing the US invade Venezuela, I knew I had to take an episode to break down why digital sovereignty is even more essential.

But also how working to get off US tech myself has led me to question whether I really need all this tech in the first place.
Tech Won’t Save Us is back from a holiday break — and that means it’s time to set the stage for the year ahead!

This week @parismarx.com lays out his big focuses for this year: digital sovereignty and rethinking the tech we personally depend on.

One of the things about people showing up to protest for the first time, that many, many armchair theorists don't grasp, is the effect of seeing what happens with your own eyes, then seeing how media covers it, and what is said ABOUT YOU by media and political personalities/office holders.
This dude is intense and correct

So much for rounding up illegal immigrants.
This is surreal. 4 Oglala Lakota men kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis have finally been located. One of them was released but the other 3 are being held at Fort Snelling, a former concentration camp used to imprison Native people incl. the Dakota 38 during Dakota Wars.

This!!
(I've lost all ability to can at this point.)
For non-German speakers:

“Dear media, I can’t stand the headline "No agreement between the US and Denmark” any longer. If an armed man storms a bank, you don't run the headline: "Robber and cashier can't reach an agreement on money transfer." Stop framing imperial aggression as normal diplomacy.”
Liebe Medien, ich kann die Schlagzeile "Keine Einigung zwischen USA und Dänemark" nicht mehr sehen. Wenn ein Bewaffneter eine Bank stürmt, titelt ihr doch auch nicht: "Räuber und Kassiererin finden keinen Konsens über Geldübergabe." Hört auf, imperiale Aggression als normale Diplomatie zu framen.

If the past year has shown us nothing else, it's the imperative of community, purpose, focus, and resources. Scrap Along 2026 can contribute to all of those.

This isn't going to go away, Trump. Release the Epstein / Trumpstein files!
A group of Epstein survivors just formally demanded that the DOJ Inspector General open an investigation into how the heavily redacted Epstein files were released. They’re demanding action now to release the files and we stand with them.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
