Everybody in higher ed has questions these days. For example, admins ask "how can we get faculty to incorporate AI into their classes?" while faculty ask "can I come in to campus to teach my classes without being abducted by an unlawful paramilitary force?"

The National Guard is still patrolling DC, carrying handguns & long rifles, patrolling vibrant community spaces in packs to intimidate residents, especially Black residents, of the city.
Keep that in mind as you see the videos of them handing out pizza & coffee in MN.

I will never forget saying that Rittenhouse’s valorization was a sign that white men had been deputized in precisely this way. I believe it got me almost banned on Twitter. Anyway.
Some of the reason I just cannot these days is I feel like I already did.

Another way to think of ICE right now is as the institutionalization of the Kyle Rittenhouse model of vigilantism under the state's authority.
Escalation and aggressive violence is clearly intentional.
But it's also cooked into the sociological model of how this force has been mobilized.

I don't know what all I can do, but I will do what I can.
We've added a "Resources" page to our website that includes links and information for various community resources like Crisis Hotlines, Immigration Defense, and Food Assistance.
It's a WIP but if there are any resources you think should be on here let us know.

I’m begging lefties and liberals to stop posting things that erase the reality of how violent the US has been to Indigenous people and Black people (among other US populations) ever since its inception and along the way.
PLEASE. Do not copy conservatives by erasing history.

The path from deciding it is acceptable to murder Black people in the street, to allowing the running over of BLM protesters, to the acceptance of genocide as policy, to legalized persecution of genocide protesters, to now White men and women being executed in the street is a straight line.

A lot of people don't understand how the 2A supporters are so okay with this, and the answer (as brilliantly explained by Carol Anderson in her book "The Second" ) is that the 2A has never been about protecting everyone's right to bear arms, but rather protecting white people's property USING guns.

I shared the video that Catie posted in her thread with a friend of his that I follow on Instagram, who was looking for any and all footage of @nurdrocks.bsky.social's capture. She let me know that he has been located, is with family, and receiving medical care.
TTRPG friends, Matt, our friend and community member @nurdrocks.bsky.social has been taken by ICE while his back was turned, peacefully protesting. Matt is the founder of Justice Frontline Aid that provides aid & education in the MN community. I've linked the video footage below. Do not stay silent.

The regime will lie. That's what fascist regimes do.
It will continue to murder people in different ways. That's also what fascist regimes do.
Regular people will continue to refuse and to not cooperate and to fight back in all of the ways we can.

Here we are, the light at the end of the tunnel. This series has been such a beautiful one and we’re sad to see it come to a close, but overjoyed at how it all came together.
It's our hope that we see more of this world, sometime after the power turns back on.
