Brilliant Mpls neighbor Annie has an update in her gfm for Heba and Ahmed. She is pregnant and will need funds to try to rebuild their lives.
I donated this morning.

"the best rent control is a thirty year mortgage" is a hell of a thing to say in a ward that's majority renter.

if i could buy a house, i wouldn't need rent stabilization, LYDIA.

Thank you! Really appreciate you showing up for our community like this.

Tonight a resident posted a picture of racist and Islamaphobic language written on Johnson street that called for @omarfatehmn.com to be deported and wished death upon the Somali community. @doronclark.bsky.social and I showed up right away to get this racist garbage off of our streets

Holy hell. DHS just openly stated that its agents use “reasonable suspicion” to make ARRESTS. This is blatantly unconstitutional. The Supreme Court is clear that you need probable cause to arrest someone, as opposed to stop them to ask them a question or two. This is huge b/c…

this is as open an admission that an entire agency is engaging in routine constitutional violations that I can imagine

It's always the people taking consistent action who feel they aren't doing "enough." Let that shit go. You are doing more than 85% of others.

I am personally at more than capacity. What we need is for others to do their part(s) too.

Next part of the layout for the www.grannysquarecrochet.com project. Trying to keep things balanced with local strategies: put similar colors a knight’s move apart rather than same row/column, keep similar patterns away from each other, try to bring down bright colors using neighboring colors

every day JB is out there showing none of this is hard, the democratic party is just that soft

Graph Time with Sara and Sean is here!

On today's episode we try to recreate the vibe of one of the first graphs that ever inspired Sean in Desmos. Watch us play with math and maybe learn a thing or two about graphing along the way!

The state could have backed him but instead they demonstrated for the thousandth time that there is no level of respectability that will prevent white people from serving you up on a platter in order to appease powerful racists.

LOOK LOOK LOOK SOMETHING WONDERFUL

GAAASP! Reading Rainbow is back, now hosted by Mychal the Librarian! I guess on PBS?

Also note: the HEIGHT of Democratic popularity nationally was when the Dems, honorably, held an anti-trans law at bay.

Also keep in mind the most popular Dem pols in the country are Mamdani, AOC & Sanders, who are all unashamedly pro-trans.

Being pro-trans & anti-bully is a winning strategy!

People not realizing someone from Puerto Rico is an American citizen totally tracks for this country.

We are full of racists and stupid adults.

The top 10% now hold 67.4% of all the wealth in the US.

The bottom 50% hold 2.5%.

I’ve said it before, any judge who so comfortably and clearly shows their prejudice should immediately be barred from their jobs, but we don’t live in a world that makes sense.

We live in a world where white people get to deem racism as a simple inconvenience and be the sole arbiter of its weight.

I promise that spending 5 minutes reading this is a better use of your time than 5 minutes of doomscrolling.

We have to listen to those reporting on the things large media isn’t. We have to share and be loud about it.

We have to learn from and take courage from each other.

As ICE continues to terrorize Chicagoland, protesters gathered this morning outside the Broadview detention center—throwing stuffed animals at DHS agents, playing music through tear gas assaults, and putting their bodies on the line to stop ICE vehicles. My latest.

Not reskeeting because booooo but

76 is an interesting number. Yes, of course 24% shouldn’t think he should, but I thought his “floor” was ~35%. This man is a weak, weak president. Harmful, of course. Shamefully so. But weak. That’s one reason he lashes out so violently.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

There are so many other companies to boycott! Save your money! Make corporations suffer! It’s a delight to not buy their terrible services and either grow my bank account or shrink debt or invest in my community!

Disney is caving!! (Sinclair is not, notably).

Boycotts work!

Feel that? It’s power.
Delicious, right?

Want more of it?? Amazing! Do not resubscribe. We want corporations terrified of us. Let there be a lasting impact. Let them know they will be the next Target.

And join the BDS movement!
