Okay, I just want to point out that if you have been considering an electric car, I would really consider doing that quickly because things do not look good re: oil availability and cost. Used EVs are currently a screaming deal. I have a feeling this will not be the case for too much longer.
there are more interesting personally crafted videogames than i will ever have time to experience in my life why would i waste 80 dollars on slop
#destroythiscard Following directions is fun! Just received my Heckadeck. Looking forward to wacky card game shenanigans.
I can’t believe you lefty Luddites hate tech so much that you embrace mRNA vaccines, heat pumps, electric bikes, hybrid work, renewable power (and awesome advancements in storage), space telescopes, and hot/cold running water but reject the planet destroying plagiarism enrich the worst people bots!
In a democracy, we are supposed to feel like we have control over our lives because the people control the government. But in the U.S., people feel like our lives are out of control because the people don’t control the federal government.
“We Thought Someone Else Would Stop Him” Holocaust survivors were asked the same question for decades. www.jackhopkinsnow.com
the Eugene Police Department narrative that protesters broke a window and attempted to enter the federal building is a lie. The entire basis on which they declared a riot and CBP justified its later escalation was a lie.

Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps
ICE's decision to just leave cars abandoned in the roads is one of those dystopian things that makes you recoil in shock when you encounter it.
Daniel Silliman@danielsilliman.bsky.social · 9mo agoA legal asylum-seeker who works at Chipotle and plays music at a church in Maine went missing. His pastor searched and searched, eventually finding his abandoned car with the keys on the floor. ICE grabbed him. No criminal record. No explanation.

On 1/30 we are shutting it down, and, on 1/31, we are gathering across the country to demand ICE Out of Everywhere, permanently!
After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.
ok, sure, “ignorance is bliss,” but only until it’s impossible to ignore it.
TONIGHT: Join the mass call on documenting and recording law enforcement encounters. We’ll discuss how you can keep taking action as federal agents terrorize our communities. Using our constitutional right to document and record ICE & CBP is more important than ever: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...
In case anyone was wondering how it’s going over on American Girl doll Instagram
Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@mayor.nyc.gov · 9mo agoAs tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today. ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.
a smart evil person would have thrown that ICE agent under the bus so fast it made us dizzy, just absolutely One Bad Appled him across the country to soothe the anxious white folks. instead they got on TV and pointed to a video of him not getting run over and said "omg look at him getting run over"
Anat Shenker-Osorio@anatosaurus.bsky.social · 9mo agoMinnesota shifting narrative from "rabble rousing protesters" vs "law enforcement" to "people of conscience" vs "evil regime." This is essential to defeating authoritarianism - exposing who, what & why they are by demonstrating who, what & why we are. And MAGA knows it. www.cnn.com/2026/01/23/p...
yes, this. this country has been talking big and falling short since "all men are created equal" and you're either the type of person who thinks it's patriotic to ignore how short we have always fallen, or you're the type of person who thinks it's patriotic to stop falling so fucking short.
Ned Resnikoff@resnikoff.bsky.social · 9mo agoThesis: ICE is un-American and the Minneapolis protestors are real Americans. Antithesis: Ackshually ICE is operating in a long American tradition of racist terror. Synthesis: Minneapolis is now the epicenter of a clash between two distinct but historically grounded American political traditions.
Lot of night shift workers looking for MN content to boost in solidarity. We love you guys
TODAY, Friday January 23rd, 2026: We are ALL residents of Minnesota. We ALL want #ICE_OutForGOOD 🚫 🧊 Also: #ICE_OUT4ReneeGood 💔
This country is run by petulant children who have never spent a single second being introspective. These are people with fragile identities who can't fathom the thought of teaching our actual history. I'm sick of it.
