A DSA-aligned candidate running a mutual aid campaign model just beat a pro-genocide competitive-authoritarian centrist backed by the full force of the DNC and tens of millions of dollars of money from a war criminal and miscellaneous billionaires. The model works.

Sheep Detectives is the first film to make me ugly cry for fifteen uninterrupted minutes. Such an absurdly tight screenplay. I wish our cops were plucky Seth Cohen boy-made-goods and not roided-out gun-toting maniacs. And what’s with all the sheep and why can’t i have any within city limits?

I think one reason data center outrage is so pronounced is people spent decades recycling and composting and otherwise scrimping to offset energy use and protect clean water, and the second we hit an inflection point for cheap electricity the banking industry said we’re taking all of it, fuck you

fact check: DHS very explicitly forbids use of deadly force against the operator of a motor vehicle, even when that vehicle is directed at an agent, unless moving out of the way is not possible. this is some sucka’-ass shit, NYT.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

The Zaporogues Cossacks Writing a Letter to the Sultan of Turkey. The sheer FAFO energy of a bunch of dudes who simply do not give a fuck about being massively outmanned and outgunned and rather than capitulating simply got drunk and wrote “lol no u” in the most colorful language possible.

A bunch of unruly burly cossacks laugh uproariously at a letter telling the sultan of Turkey to go fuck himself in his own arse.

Art question 🎨 What painting, photograph, sculpture, or piece of visual art has stayed with you long after you first saw it? Not necessarily your favorite. The one that lingered.

As @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social said, this is extremely interesting. I’ve wrote a lot about how insidious Englebert v. Boule was, and how it laid the groundwork for a fascist executive branch to act with literal impunity. It took an ICE invasion of our cities for states to get the memo.

For @boltsmag.org, I wrote about one of the more under-the-radar ways that states are using their power to curb federal overreach: creating state laws under which people can sue federal officials for constitutional violations and get ideally around SCOTUS' narrowing of Bivens

Last time these KKK Patriot Front clowns tried to roll up on the City of Brotherly Love, they “literally ran away from the People of Philadelphia.” EVERY city should be like this. No quarter for domestic terrorists. ✊🏽🙏🏽🦅🔔🇺🇸
