I went back to capture what the astronauts said in full when the clock was stopped at T-10 minutes and they were asked if they were go for launch:

This is Victor. We are going for our families.
This is Christina. We are going for our teammates.
This is Jeremy. We are going for all humanity.

When I saw the news story about the girls school being bombed, one of my first thoughts was about how unlike American physics, Iranian physics is 50% women at the undergrad level and how some of those girls who had been murdered were going to be physicists one day

So when thousands of women (and children) were being duplicated--including in non-consensual AI porn--it was no big deal. But it took "only a 15-sec clip" of these two famous white men to draw outrage and fear. Gotcha. Cool cool.

Chadwick Boseman and James van der Beek both died in their 40s of an illness that's treatable if a colonoscopy catches it but almost no insurer covers them for people under 45, this is what Engels meant by "social murder"

This is why domestic "shuffle" flights between ICE detention centers have skyrocketed, much moreso than ICE deportation flights.

When you are moved to a different jurisdiction, you have to refile your habeas petition all over again. They want to wear people down so they'll give up on their cases.

This is the pattern. Purchase/Take Over a media source that has informed the public. Then dismantle them to the lowest form:
1. Twitter
2. Meta
3. Washington Post
4. CBS-60 Minutes/News
5. Public Broadcasting
6. Tik Tok

We are up to our necks in state run media.

in a system that tells us to get ours

that tells us the american dream is success for yourself

that people with money are the ones who’ve won

mutual aid is a rejection of the core capitalist values we were supposed to learn

mutual aid is interdependence

and interdependence is how we’ll survive

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

The iron law of MAGA is that every accusation is a confession. Whatever projection they are casting on their enemies is a revelation of their inner selves. It’s how their warped psyches call for help.

Remember this the next time you hear Peter Thiel call someone the Antichrist.

gentle reminder to folks living in cities that are not under siege by the federal government yet:

please start getting involved with your local mutual aid orgs asap, even if it's in an "on-hold / as available" capacity.

a large bottleneck for mutual aid orgs is vetting. it takes time to do safely.

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand

You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen

Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.”

the picture of the stuffed animal sticking out of the glove compartment just inches away from the blood spattered dashboard is gonna be one of those images that haunts me forever. even when your whole job is looking at the horrors on purpose and you get good at forgetting, some things are seared in.

Minnesota Can & Must Prosecute the Unnamed ICE Agent Who Murdered Renee Good | Shouldn't Need to Be a Lawyer by Matthew Cortland Get more from Shouldn't Need to Be a Lawyer by Matthew Cortland on Patreon

You're going to hear a lot of lies about what the law allows after the Trump Regime's murder of Renee Good.

States can prosecute federal officers, they've been doing it since the 1800s. Trump cannot stop it and cannot pardon it.

Here's the legal analysis
