you’re already ahead. stay with it. minneapolis stripped these forces of legitimacy (a battle other cities won’t have to repeat). remember they are completely outmanned. their only real advantage is their organizational capacity. out-organize them & the illusion of control will collapse.
I can't describe how bad Minneapolis feels right now. My neighbors are pulling kids out of school. The public schools are offering remote learning until 2/12. We are having conversations in our alleys about how to protect ourselves. It feels like a military occupation with a blockade.
The US Department of Agriculture suspends all federal funding to Minnesota, effective immediately.

Genuinely one of the draws is just how horny they are for each other. I can’t remember watching anything in recent memory where the two leads gave a lick of sexual tension that Shane and Ilya do. The people want steamy romance.
“Heated Rivalry,” a steamy Canadian series about a pair of closeted gay hockey players, has become one of the television industry’s biggest surprises in recent memory. “I did not anticipate that it would turn into the kind of the social phenomenon that it is,” said Casey Bloys, the head of HBO Max.
Popularity of ‘Heated Rivalry’ Has Surprised Even TV Executives
The show, streaming on HBO Max, doesn’t have one of the biggest audiences, but viewership grew very quickly in just a few weeks.

People rationalizing that staying on X is the moral position remind me of people saying you can change the Democrats from the inside. Any illusion that it was a force for good has been shattered now. Stop embarrassing yourself.

if only there had been a movement and momentum several years ago to downsize police budgets, clear out the white supremacists and de-militarize local law enforcement
The elephant in the room is that mayors and governors across the country have very good reason to question the loyalty and allegiances of the state and local police forces and that’s one of the impediments to doing anything about the current occupations

1. Canada used to have laws against publishing fake news
and
2. They were struck down as unconstitutional by the SCC during Ernst Zundel's trial

In an attempt to propose a new NATO, @thetyee.ca published an opinion piece that lauded attempts by the Non-Aligned Movement to retain independence. But the piece papers over NATO's use in reinforcing the imperialist global order and totally disregards the efforts of colonized peoples. My latest:

Yes. they leaked it because they’re proud of it
they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

Hey everyone. Remember: You don’t need to watch the new video. Others have and can describe it. You do not need to personally absorb trauma as a moral position.

No, Grok hasn’t paywalled its deepfake image feature
X’s sexual deepfake machine is still running, despite Grok saying otherwise.
