I am always fuckin saying this lol

Great fucking work out there Chicago, I'm not surprised at all!

Really hard to overstate the extent to which opposition to the current administration is the default position of normal people. They’re handing out kazoos. There’s bubble machines

It WAS too early to speculate on what particular kind of "political motivation" the shooter had. NOW we know a little more. Isn't it weird how sometimes you have to wait for information to be released?

No Kings in St Paul. These folks are not too scared to be here.

A beautiful day to take transit

gonna caution everyone about national accounts covering the news in MN - stick to locals. already seeing lots of misinformation coming from people who do not live here

assassinations, handcuffing a senator at press conference, marines detaining a civilian, and a military parade for the president’s birthday. rough week for democracy.

In re: LRT, Minnesota is the opposite of a news desert - the Twin Cities has dozens of responsible news outlets staffed by incredibly professional journalists. They do not need your breathless, speculative assistance in covering this story. Post *local* coverage as it emerges, and ignore the noise.

Listening to Walz, and even though I've known and been warning for years now that this is where we were headed, political-violence-wise, I'm still just in shock. This whole week needs to be a wake-up call for all of us. We're in the fight of our lives here.

To be clear, these two elected officials also lived very close by one another and the session is over. I felt drawn to this narrative earlier but I gave myself time and didn't instantly post everything in my brain without thinking about it and analysing it first to prevent fear and misinformation.

In general, consider not speculating at this moment. I have a lot of thoughts I am not sharing because I simply don't have the information! Something can be a developing situation. We don't need to have a take instantly. It serves no one and panics everyone. Just breathe a minute.

That's not just a human writing this glowing dogshit piece. That's genAI, glazing itself.

It's actually pretty easy to just not speculate on shit if you're not press and to just not RT everything you see and I'd strongly advise you to practice doing that especially now. Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Just an awful day

Oh no you guys I just realized What if we hurt those ICE guys' feelings! Oh fuck oh no what if it stopped being fun to be an ICE guy and they had a recruitment crisis oh no

My hot take? Only thing that beats cheap labor sourced from exploited immigrants is free labor. Prison labor. Compelled labor. Our appetite for treats is insatiable.

Why the fuck is the MN No Kings March marching over a fucking bridgeee I will not be doing that lmao I will see y'all on the other side of that shit and I highly recommend you do not march over a bridge with thousands of people! It's been five years and there are moments I still hear screaming!

ICE agent at a workplace raid: “you guys understand we have a signed warrant to be here” Worker: “And here’s my bag of fucks”

Please be aware that not everyone presenting "helpful advice" right now is your friend Please assume that not everyone has your idea of liberation in mind Please care for yourself and your community enough to be credulous of where the information comes from and how much experience backs it up

This is true for every single kind of Special Magic Legal Words, fyi "Hello officer can I see that warrant? My boss says I can't let you into the private areas of this business without a signed judicial warrant."
