"We can use this to replace the newer people in the field! The experienced ones will make sure it doesn't go weird."
But how do we replace the experienced ones, if we don't hire new folks and give them time and training?
"Shhhh" *slides pillow over my face*

Lots of folks getting radicalized by the snow across much of the country right now. What gets plowed, when it gets plowed, and how often it gets plowed reveals a lot about your city's priorities and who it values.
Watching cars speed down cleared streets while watching pedestrians scramble over three foot high snow banks or having to walk in the street to avoid uncleared walkways has the War on Cars part of my brain very activated

I am so glad you posted this, because I thought I was losing my mind over pictures of Alex looking different than the ones I saw immediately after he was identified. It seems really irresponsible for a professional news outlet to be doing that.

Definite uptick in Bluesky content aggregators taking legit clips regarding Minnesota from a few days or weeks ago and posting them without any sort of timestamp context, which gives the impression of them happening today, which then gets clicks. Be vigilant with what and how you share.

If you disable all the weird AI fuckshit on your Gmail, it also disables spellcheck lmao. They really removed “don’t be evil” as their motto and then stomped it to death in the dirt, didn’t they? Christ alive.

Everyone should be putting up NO ICE NO CPB NO FEDERAL AGENTS GET A JUDICIAL WARRANT OR STAY OUT signs everywhere.
My wife told me she heard at a training she attended that ICE has argued "ALL ARE WELCOME HERE" signs are invitations to enter private spaces and if that don't beat all I don't know what does.

Well at least by not using LLMs to spew out garbage emails for me, it’s really obvious to spot a phishing attempt with a thread of emails that includes ones supposedly sent by me!

One small thing you can do today: ICE is ramping up in Maine. Food For All is delivering meals to 300 families that can't leave their homes. They need $7k a day to continue operations. The Culture Study community is raising enough to cover a day—join us?

Rob Saka asks what parents can do to prevent their daughters from getting into sex work. The prosecutor says watch out to see if they're "fast girls," check to see if they have a second phone, ask lots of questions if they get their nails done. Real Eric Adams "as simple as a crack pipe" shit.

The historic Potter’s House, which people who know Link may know as his bookstore, has the devastating news they’re closing. They have stood for decades using an anti capitalist business model, they’re more than a bookstore but a place that feeds & looks after the community. So many of us are sad.

Yes, and there’s a phrase I have learned which is “if you’re not embarrassed by your past self, you aren’t growing as a person.”
Which I find tremendously comforting, actually, because I am often mortified by my past self and I like to grow as a person.

Tell them to abolish ICE and then let me know:

This is really important. The Holocaust museum is not a Jewish organization or representative of Jews. Taking their statements as representative of Jews is just another case of people talking about us, rather than to us.

This is a lovely sentiment, and I am mesmerized by the beautiful little swoops on the second line of the second image.
Your Cherokee words for today.
The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.
