This is The Singing Resistance.
What began with a small group singing in freezing temperatures has grown into a movement in Minneapolis, where thousands are gathering to sing protest songs as a way to grieve, express fear, and find courage. #SingingResistance
This is so Minnesotan ๐

"Official King County Executive Order signed by Girmay Zahilay on February 12, 2026, mandating transparency and public oversight of immigrant deportation flights at Boeing Field (KCIA)."
Last month, King County, WA passed a measure to improve visibility for ICE flight spotters โ including increased observer access space, as well as publicly accessible security cameras.
This helps the public audit and monitor ICE detention flights.

John Fetterman (Pa.)
Maggie Hassan (N.H.)
Tim Kaine (Va.)
Andy Kim (N.J.)
Gary Peters (Mich.)
Jeanne Shaheen (N.H.)
Elissa Slotkin (Mich.)
These Dem Senators have one thing in common. They all voted for Kristie Noem to head the DHS. Fetterman is a lost cause but the rest better not approve Mullin.
This is a beautiful portrait from the inimitable @ricksteves.bsky.social of the people who are suffering in Iran, both under its theocracy and from our nation's warmongering.
If you care about free and fair election this November, this is the most important story of the day. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Q: "Do you think that Donald Trump should be deposed by this Committee?"
Hillary Clinton: "Absolutely."
"Donald Trump has been held civilly liable for sexual assault by a jury of his peers โฆ That is behavior that fits a pattern if one were looking for a pattern."

"U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school."
"The strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the โMiddle East."
Presenting Markwayne Mullin, ladies and gentlemen...๐คก
ACTION ALERT: SB5974 will update and strengthen professional qualifications and accountability standards for all sheriffs. This legislation is popular and may be up for a vote TONIGHT. Write your State Rep to let them know you SUPPORT SB 5974 here: www.takeaction.network/xactions/484...
Okay, look, I wanna say something about this, because I know a lot of people are like "oh look the weird nerds are having a Day" and yes, we are.
But this is not really about 3D printing so much as it is about community.
โ ๏ธ There could be a vote on this tomorrow morning! โ ๏ธ
Call to action and talking points below. In the form it links to, you can cc other legislators such as Yasmin Trudeau, your senate member and district reps.
Be sure to include "SB 6002" and "DO NOT PASS the substitute in title"
Examining the two #Flock operator cases in Georgia and why logs and internal policies are insufficient to prevent abuse of mass #surveillance data. ๐
"Is 400 searches for a single plate for the reason โsusโ hard evidence of anything? No. Should it be investigated? Yes."
#deflock #alpr ๐ซ
#Surveillance businesses like #Flock and #Ring have always relied on manipulating fear and suspicion. This is predictable damage control, trying to counter the growing push-back as awareness spreads!
โช๏ธSurveillance is not inevitable. โ
โช๏ธSurveillance is not safety. โ
Cancel Flock! ๐ซ
#deflock #alpr
If your city is suspending or cancelling #Flock, remember that "switching to another #ALPR vendor" is NOT the solution.
Dragnet bulk data collection is the core problem. #Flock is just one particularly egregious example.
Mass #surveillance does not make any of us safer! ๐ซ
(We've heard that Flock isn't going to try to kill the bill; they're resigned to the fact that *something* is going to pass, so they'll try to make it as weak as possible -- for example 30-day retention or even 60-day, like in Virginia. We'll push for 3 minutes, like in New Hampshire.)
Looking for something to do from Washington to hold murderous ICE agents accountable?
Sign your name in "pro" on the #WALeg bill to ban all law enforcement from hiding their identities with masks: app.leg.wa.gov/csi/Testifie...
NEW: CBP is doubling down on a surveillance strategy built around small, human-portable drones, pushing border enforcement toward a distributed surveillance network that can operate in harsh climes and mixed terrain to rapidly cue agents.
Garrett Langley, CEO of Flock Safety, is oblivious. This man cares more about selling a product than actual community safety or anything that might resemble democracy.
Shameless plug but we're starting a session of SASSI School focused on Techno-Fascism in January. Garrett may be discussed.
Those in California can now go here to request that data brokers delete their data: privacy.ca.gov/drop/
This is a good thing, however, itโs far from a complete solution. ๐งต

I did not have 3D printers on my 2025 bingo card, but here we are!
And we need more 3D printers! If you have one, itโs not too late to join the whistle resistance.
