This one has been a long time in the making. So many contributions and years of hard work went into bringing this project to the finish line. I’m really happy to finally share our new story. Thanks to everyone involved, and a very special thanks to @teamthomma.bsky.social and @lfaino.bsky.social

Happy Valentines Day 💝🌹

Now to what’s not happy.

The search for Nancy Guthrie continues! Why was she even taken? Why does it take law enforcement to determine height, check surrounding cameras, get the glove DNA checked? This is heartbreaking.

Next, we know what a monster Trump is.

Here’s so good news, and some sad news.

Europe has stepped into the void that America has left since Trump 2.0.

The question is how long they can keep Russia at bay in Ukraine. It’s obvious that the Trump admin has no plan to provide support.

Yeah, the so-called negotiations continue,

Just a reminder that the UC system was not a party in this litigation. Faculty, staff and the @aaup.org fought on their own. UCLA, and the entire UC system, should be ashamed of themselves, and their leaders should be reminded of their submissives every day.

If we believe we share a common humanity, then we have to be all in this, together!
In 1854, after watching the federal government deploy 2000 federal troops and spend $40,000 sending Anthony Burns back into slavery, Boston's Amos Adams Lawrence said “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.”
Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

Important thread.
#SayNoToFascism.
“Fascism” isn’t a slur for politics we don’t like. It’s a precise word with precise meaning. And in the face of what’s happening right now in America, it’s the most honest one we have.

I’ll lay it out as plainly as I can. 🧵

Absolutely do NOT give your ID or face scan on Discord. It's even worse than expected. Apparently due to people bypassing current systems, they're switching to "persona" which is funded by fucking Peter Thiel.

I wouldn't be concerned about doxxing ice nazis. We already know where the boss lives and when he's dead the scattering is going to be epic. These last few weeks are their party bus except instead of a stripper pole and bar, the bus is filled with drunk toddler relatives and rhb
