Niemoller was right of course but so was Fred Hampton, shortly before his murder by CPD and the FBI. The simple answer is also the speedy one. Nobody goes. We all stay right here with the people.

I truly believe a big reason why Democrats are failing to appropriately respond to the moment is a pathological refusal to admit that there were aspects of the American status quo pre trump that were extremely fucked up and unjust

To love anything as much as the Democrats love listening to a guy being paid by nazis like Peter Thiel and Marcus Andreesen to tell them how to lose elections

"Turn it all the way off, forever" is the AI feature users ask for most. Which company will solve this problem first? (It requires groundbreaking innovation to overcome some technical challenges in stock valuation)

emily moonlight @threnody.bsky.social · 3d

just watched a dozen people ask microsoft copilot experts their most pressing questions and those questions were 90% “how do i turn it off?” and “when i turn it off, is it really off or is it spying on me?”

You know, it's fine. Partial improvement from soccer in that it's never going to be 40 degrees and drizzling. I brought a folding chair and ear plugs which were both clutch.

Periodic reminder that you can put a little basket in your bathroom closet with condoms and fentanyl test strips and other harm reduction stuff, and you can tell your teenagers you don't track it and it can be for them or any of their friends and you can regularly replace it if it's used or expires

A message from the past at one of our great civic institutions, the Chicago Park district.
"Government that doesn't serve the young, the old and others on the edge of society is of little or no value to any of its citizens"

Wall plaque saying: this natatorium is dedicated to the memory of Michael J Howlett, 1914-1992. Illinois auditor of public accounts/IL secretary of state" with the posted quote at the bottom

LMAOOOOO

A bunch of comedians tried to make up for their participation in the Riyadh comedy festival by donating their pay to Human Rights Watch and Human rights Watch was like “nah bitch we don’t want your dirty blood money” 😂😂 I’m dying

Human Rights Watch Doesn’t Want Any Riyadh Comedy Festival Money

Taking money from those who took money from Saudi Arabia would impact perception of the org’s independence.

“Terrible things are happening outside. At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes….Families are torn apart; men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

(unsecured roof tent flying by my head) tactical gear is my passion

Mo Ryan @moryan.bsky.social · 2d

Today i ran into the other woman who fell & she is OK, still protesting too. Btw I guess cops think they’re gonna spend so much time on this roof, on a MUCH bigger building rumored to be new ICE facility possibly, that they bought a tent. It blew away halfway through the morning.

A tent on top of a building next to the ice facility in Broadview Illinois. There are cops in the foreground and next to the tent on the roof.

Every one of these videos is chilling. I am struck by how people have to throw their phones, names, anything they can toward strangers in hopes of notifying their family and employers. Public safety is what we do for each other and it never comes from cops.

"telling on themselves"

Undead in Chicago @mosermostly.bsky.social · 2d

Exactly this. It's why they think virtue signaling is some kind of a gotcha. Yeah man, I try to demonstrate my values through my words and actions, you figured out the secret!

The paid-protestor myth is big among conservative honks because none of them can fathom the idea that people would want better things for their communities and neighbors out of the goodness of their hearts.
