This or just dumping people *in the woods* AND sending folks out w/o their phone or I.D.

Volunteers w/ Safe Haven wait at the gate & do sweeps of the woods, with warm clothes, a burner, and a ride home, "so no one is left alone at the gate."

I spent the evening outside the Whipple federal building in Minneapolis, where the feds have been releasing people they detained — often for no discernible reason — into the freezing cold... wearing whatever little clothing they had on at the time they were taken.

Hey @hlepidus.bsky.social you must surely know, what is the song that goes "Looney O'Looney, oh!" by @robynhitchcock.bsky.social ? (I wanna request it tonight, but I feel it'd be in poor form to request a song without knowing its name.)

Nice little bag o' bones thread🧵
A few days ago, I stood in the graveyard of an 1100 year old church, getting damper and damper in the drizzling rain.

A woman walked into the graveyard, waved, said hello, and, as we had previously arranged, handed me a paper bag full of human bones.

The life of a churchwarden is a strange one...

Gotta remind yourself not to cry when you see the kid's signs.

It's negative -25°F and tears are dangerous.

Both of my local liquor stores are closed. Liquor stores. In winter. In Minnesota. On a Friday.

This morning I saw that the water dish we keep outside for the birds decided to break... like this?
I get that it was probably due to repeated freezing and thawing, but what I really respect is breaking, if you have to break, in an original and deeply confusing way.

I've never seen a population more united. If people can hold onto that unity, if people can accept that different people will have different ways of confronting fascism, if we can remind NGOs and orgs that they can join but not control the resistance, then, well, people here will write history.

New— I wrote about the amazing success of the Greg Bovino Bitch Fund Benefiting Immigrant Rights in Minnesota (more than $18k raised just from bluesky!!!), how people far and wide are inspired by the fighting spirit, and why I feel it’s my duty as a journalist to use my platform for material change:
Calling Greg Bovino a "b*tch" raises thousands for Minn. immigrant rights
Spearheaded by The Handbasket, $18k+ in donations were made to spite the CBP commander.
