Spreadsheets are my love language and I think white supremacy is stupid. West coast girl living in New England. Recovering teacher. My dog is the best dog.

ITYSL/Detroiters all day.

Opinions are mine, and *sometimes* they’re satire.

I spent several years teaching in a locked-down juvenile detention facility and one thing I am good at is eviscerating the incel/tough-guy types.

Lesson #1 in handling an incel: DOMINATE HIM, but stay calm while doing it.

He says “your body my choice”? You post:

Never made sense that the while Democrats were warning us that Trump would deploy DHS as his private storm troopers, they were passing bills that raised DHS funding to record levels.

You know the idiots on X are going to cry like little Jack Posobitches over this because they see themselves in Jake Lang.

Narcissistic injury-by-proxy!

If you are in Seattle, please go patronize this store because this is amazing content/promo 😂 (laughing to keep from crying, and I do kind of low-key want that orange spider plant I have never seen that before)

All, periodic reminder: when you dunk on people like Katie Miller, you're doing exactly what they want.

1. Being screenshot and dunked on amplifies her message, even if it's snarking.
2. Ignoring her and lack of notoriety actually hurts her more.

Don't do her work for her. Seriously.

Something I wish I could communicate to students is when you get to the point of a project where there's just so many things you're holding in your head that it hurts that's exactly where you have to persevere, because your mind must figure out a way to reorganize what you're doing to survive.

ICE seems to get completely flummoxed when they’re being yelled at by white men over 35. They kind of put their heads down and shuffle their feet. It’s like their kryptonite.

DHS getting basic 4th Amendment law wrong on its official Twitter account.

Seems like this post is bound to show up as an exhibit in one of the cases challenging ICE/Border Control enforcement actions.

I cannot overemphasize how this is the key.

Everyone reading this, every @indivisible.org member, everyone who volunteered for the 2024 election:

If you're not directly helping Minneapolis, all of your efforts right now should be directed to getting Schumer and Jeffries OUT.
I think we're going to win for a variety of reasons, but making it a reality starts with elevating leaders who are not Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries. They are actively harming the opposition and helping the administration tighten its grip on the country.
this crystallizes why, despite truly heroic solidarity and activism, i can’t quite get in the “we’re going to win” mindset right now. the harm is so active and there’s so much violence we don’t even know about. people are being turned into ghosts.

There is a cottage industry of people who talk about how dangerous it is that people like Walz and Frey are being investigated and I’m just not having it.

Sure it’s concerning. I’m far more concerned about the people getting kidnapped and murdered than the powerful guys with security details.

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.
Vehicles that are abandoned due to an ICE detention and towed to the City's impound lot will be released to their owners or a representative at no cost.

This is like a satanic parody of the best moments of Reconstruction, which saw the DOJ using federal power to break up white supremacist conspiracies against civil rights. Here, white supremacists in the DOJ are using conspiracy law to attack civil rights.

I’m starting a town where businesses and the government can only use 2005-level surveillance technology.

Who’s in?

(And what should we call it?)
A startup called SpaceVision tracks shoppers around brick and mortar stores and uses real-time data for targeted ads. For ex: they see that you watched a digital ad on a screen and picked up chips from the shelf. A few minutes later, a store could send you a deal for beer to go with chips.

You can build a 'conservative university' that's still a totally respectable university but the thing is that means you're getting a place like BYU, not the Epic Center For Lib Owning.
