Three rules in FBI firearm training:

1. Always point your weapon downrange
2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot
3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot

Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

This part is both chilling and so empathetic/generous. The chilling part is obvious, but that last line does something else: it allows us to see process, the “how she got there,” the thing that nagged until she figured it out. It’s a gift and a challenge. Dr. McMillan-Cottom is a *great* teacher.

If many people hold a left-wing opinion they are a mob and should be ignored; if few people hold a left wing opinion they are fringe and should be ignored. The substance or correctness of the opinion is irrelevant. This is the reactionary centrist credo bsky.app/profile/eliv...

They weren't rookies

The two federal agents who murdered Alex Pretti had a combined 20 years of experience with BP or CBP, and simmered in a toxic culture with an absurd crime rate that must be erased, not "reformed"

Jesse is a hospice patient, but he's not giving up. His meds are covered this month now, but he could use some scratch for food to supplement the garbage at the nursing home. He's still helping folks from his hospital bed. Help him here: gofund.me/985d49dbc.

First, little Niko, age 3. He has cerebral palsy and needs urgent kidney surgery. It can only be done in Colorado; travel/lodging costs. He's medically fragile; mandatory recovery *there* will be 4-6 weeks. Surgery 02/26/26, so this needs funding now:

I just donated. Can you? Even $5.00 will help.
Eric is a cancer patient who just had to have rotator-cuff surgery. No work; disability hearing rescheduled *again*, for May. He runs out of propane tomorrow. Another $100 or so in his GFM would cover refills: gofund.me/0d435d0d3.

Now, tonight's local urgent needs.

There are SO many. It's grim for us. It's much more grim for a lot of other local folks.

So tonight, it's crowdfund night. Please pick one to give/share/get closer to goal.

Now, tonight's inventory selections. This week, in anticipation of Valentine's Day, is all about hearts. For each post, the inventory selection wil be something that matches, maybe color, maybe spirit, but not necessarily another heart.

Except today.
