Impeach Kristi Noem. Abolish ICE.
Fuck each and every one of them
They must be primaried
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

"Please get the truth out about our son."
Newly unsealed evidence makes it even clearer that Rubio and Noem knew they were targeting students based solely on their political speech and that they knew this policy was unconstitutional. They just didn’t care. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/u...
Frodo: I wish so much unbelievably stupid shit had not happened in my time Gandalf: So do all who live to see such times. This is all exceptionally stupid, though
To the "civility" people, saying the word "fuck" is violence, but the cops shooting tear gas is "peace keeping", ripping a parent from their children is "doing their job". They want to control the definition of violence and their monopoly on the use of it.

Just finished "Braiding Sweetgrass" by Robin Wall Kimmerer
It had been on my TBR pile for a while and I'm glad I took the time to savor this one. A very good read, especially this time of year and in these times.

"I don't do politics" is just a cheat-code for supporting fascism without having to say that you support fascism.
Just your regularly scheduled share of this masterpiece by @tomgauld.bsky.social
The "all lives matter" and "a fertilized egg is a human life" people want you to know that they'll kill you if it makes them an extra $10.
This is Structure Eugenics. I wrote about it here. It's deliberate, it's deadly, and it's going to get worse: www.qasimrashid.com/p/trump-is-e...
GOV. WALZ: “Now that Minnesota has been taken out of the investigation, it feels very difficult that we will get a fair outcome. And I say that only because people in positions of power have already passed judgment. They have stood and told you things that are verifiably false.”
Murphy: "As their agenda becomes more unpopular, they then become more dependent on trying to rig out democracy and rig the next election, bc nobody is gonna vote these guys back in ... You gotta connect the dots here. What they are trying to do is rationalize violence."

End ICE. Abolish Qualified Immunity.
Make it viral.
In systems design a common heuristic is: A system is defined by what it does
In other words, it doesn’t matter the intent or lack-there-of when building and deploying a system. It is only defined by its actual output
In this case, X and Grok are defined by what they do: Abusing women and children
If your faith requires "damage control" because your kid might learn that gay people EXIST, the problem isn’t the book.
It’s your religion.
Unfortunately, because of SCOTUS, a judge has sided with the Christian dad.

"Good Things" by Samin Nosrat
Thanks to everyone who, in spite of everything, did something creative this year. Our ability to create is one of the highest and most noble of human capabilities and helps put us in touch with our best selves, something we need more than ever. So, thank you!
ICE data confirms:
•Only 3.1% of people sent to CECOT have a violent criminal record
•Only 3.4% of people they arrested in Chicago have a violent criminal record
•More than 75K people they've arrested have no violent criminal record
•Nearly 100% are Latino
This is not due process. This Is Fascism.
The Venn diagram between people who say vaccines don't work because one person they know got sick anyway and gun laws don't work because Australia had their first deadly mass shooting in 29 years, is a perfect circle.
It's an anti-science, anti-common sense, anti-humanity, dangerous cult.
This World AIDS Day, we remember the hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers lost to HIV and AIDS, and those living with HIV today. We must remind ourselves and each other that the fight isn’t over until the epidemic is over for everyone.

Trump calls to hang Democrats who oppose him
US Coast guard no longer considers swastika a hate symbol
97.4% of (mostly) Latinos ICE arrested have 0 criminal record
This is what systemic white supremacy looks like. Trump is building a Nationalist Christian (Nat-C) state to violently stifle dissent.
