Everyone go read "A Year Without Sunshine" by Naomi Kritzer

TWIN CITIES

Armed Citizens Against Tyranny is a HONEYPOT action.

No one in the Twin Cities, including the MN Gun Owners association, knows anyone supposedly in this group.

Local orgs are STRONGLY urging folks to STAY AWAY from their planned "protest."

Tactical Man-A-Lago™ Face, For Him

one thing I've learned during this occupation: it doesn't actually take that much bravery! If your heart has love and your mind has deeply-held moral values, they will propel your body into action* regardless of whether or not your guts have bravery.

*not just rapid response; support is action too

I think one thing people outside Minnesota don't understand is that after Good and Pretti were killed by feds while observing, the most normal people you could imagine have made peace with the fact that they could be next, and they are still out there because they say it's the right thing to do.

this whole 🧵 (and story: www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...)

‘Hush!’ said Gandalf from the shadows at the back of the porch. ‘Evil things do not come into this fast food chain; but all the same we should not name them. The Lord of the Wings is not Frodo, but the master of the Dark Tower of Buffalo, whose power is again stretching out over the world!’

It's just gonna be alternating studies between this and UBI until the heat death of the universe.

Trans athletes may not have fitness advantage in women’s sport, landmark study finds Findings suggest physical performance in trans women converges toward that of cis women over time

you don't say? at some point we're going to acknowledge what every study ever on this subject has said, right? right? www.independent.co.uk/news/science...

ACAB includes the cop in your head

Evergreen and for the whole country.

If this ends before they get to your town, you’ll have some meals prepped and you will have made some friends. You cannot lose.

I’ll say this for [former coworker] — he never once messed up my new name or pronouns; and I know he fully accepted me as a woman, because he started explaining basic concepts to me in condescending detail

When this is all over, we should close down Lake Street from the lakes to the river and get takeout from all the restaurants that helped or closed or struggled, and just have a big ol' dinner party. Open Streets but make it a potluck.

From:Shanson900 Sent: October 18,2014 To: Jeffrey Epstein NYT mag Men of Wellesley - Can women's colleges survive the transgender movement You spoke about it only 6+ mos ago. Now the cover story. Dam!!

don't mind me, just finding lots of bread crumbs showing Epstein and the League of Pederasts were a driving force in pushing transphobic hate.

This email was sent in October 2014, at the start of the current anti trans political campaign and astroturphing.

I will not buy the claims that ICE has bigger guns when the lives of our children are at stake. In general, if local law enforcement can arrest residents who break the law, then they can arrest ICE agents who break the law. 3/

I'm here in Minnesota and my heart goes out to the people protesting in Portland because holy shit are those federal agents unhinged oh my God. 😫

The sheer volume of riot munitions is unbelievable. The unrestrained violence of that cop riot

If the guy you just met at the March For Billionaires suddenly wants you to start building bombs and shit, he's 100% a fed. Solidarity with Bezos forever but practice opsec.

Chuckled at the headline, howled at the dek.

Nancy Mace is probably the single most prominently transphobic politician on the national stage; she calls herself a “proud bigot,” screams slurs on the floor of Congress, and harasses trans colleagues and staffers. I’m curious: is there a particular reason you chose not to mention this at all?

In context, he’s not telling us to defeat ICE by loving ICE. He's telling us that our love for our neighbors is stronger than ICE's hate for our neighbors

DOCTOR: I told him he needed to get out to a show, that was how he would cure his depression.

CHOTINER: So you learned this technique in school?

DR: No, not— listen it was good advice. Pagliacci was in town.

C: Right. Is it standard to give advice before learning a patient’s name?

DR: Now look

Every donation link, every GoFundMe for rent support etc., is—in reality—a fundraiser to make sure parasitic landlords with no moral compass can keep extracting wealth from vulnerable people.

We have to do it, and it’s great we are. But, it doesn’t change the fact it’s immoral and deeply fucked up.

it's 90% fear of visible PoC and 10% disgust towards their own queer children that they threw away

That’s more of an early Steve Reich kind of deal

Y’know, if Chotiner called me up for an interview, I actually would take it! Not because I think I’d somehow come out of it looking good, but because my public abasement would be one small step towards atoning for the enormity of whatever evil I had done to make Chotiner call me up for an interview.
