US protesters shot fireworks at the hotel where ICE agents are staying at in Minneapolis. They also played loud music and banged on windows. #ReneeNicoleGood #ReneeGood #3E #EndImpunity
The states ethnic cleansing police returns to the scene of the original genocide.
Like nothing left to analogy. It this was a show it’d be criticized for being too literal.
Whistles at the Renee Good Memorial in Minneapolis. The whistle has really become a sound of day to day life on the south side.
The whistles along with car horns are used to warn others of ICE or federal agents in the area.

One of the things that genuinely shocked me as I read through surveillance logs for the police is how much of their energy and attention is dedicated to shutting down vigils and other ceremonies of remembrance.
THE OPEN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF GRIEF IS A POLITICAL ACT.

Will January ever end? 😭
First, I want to extend my gratitude to all the people who have reached out from across the country and around the world to support our family. This kindness of strangers is the most fitting tribute because if you ever encountered my wife, Renee Nicole Macklin Good, you know that above all else, she was kind, In fact, kindness radiated out of her. Renee sparkled. She literally sparkled. I mean, she didn't wear glitter but I swear she had sparkles coming out of her pores. All the time. You might think it was just my love talking but her family said the same thing. Renee was made of sunshine, Renee lived by an overarching belief: there is kindness in the world and we need to do everything we can to find it Where it resides and nurture it where it needs to grow Renee was a Christian who knew that all religions teach the same essential truth: we are here to love each other, care for each other, and keep each other safe and whole. Like people have done across place and time, we moved to make a better life for ourselves. We chose Minnesota to make our home. Our whole extended road trip here, we held hands in the car while our son drew all over the windows to pass the time and the miles,
What we found when we got here was a vibrant and welcoming community, we made friends and spread joy: And while any place we were together was home, there was a strong shared sense here in Minneapolis that we were looking out for each other. Here, I had finally found peace and safe harbor. That has been taken from me forever. We were raising our son to believe that no matter where you come from or what you look like, all of us deserve compassion and kindness. Renee lived this belief every day. She is pure love. She is pure joy. She is pure sunshine On Wednesday, January 7th, we stopped to support our neighbors. We had whistles. They had guns. Renee leaves behind three extraordinary children; the youngest is just six years old and already lost his father. I am now left to raise our son and to continue teaching him, as Renee believed, that there are people building a better world for him. That the people who did this had fear and anger in their hearts, and we need to show them a better way. We thank you for the privacy you are granting our family as we grieve. We thank you for ensuring that Renee's legacy is one of kindness and love. We honor her memory by living her values: rejecting hate and choosing compassion, turning away from fear and pursuing peace, refusing division and knowing we must come together to build a world where we all come home safe to the people we love.

Renee Macklin Good's wife, Becca Good, released a statement and it moved me to sobbing tears:

I do not have resources to cross-check and verify this, but this does seem like somewhat of a lead

Analysis from me:
I would not be surprised if this was a reference to changes in U.S. federal policy. Project 2025 revealed a keen investment from Trump admin in the censorship of pornography through controlling institutions responsible for accessing it

Spoke with an anon source who had an interesting insight into Visa policy. Per a convo with their bank on the Steam/itchio situation today, Visa put new restrictions into place due to a new "government policy." The exact phrase used by Visa. No specific country was listed as the source of the policy
I'm seeing fewer posts about the Visa and Mastercard situation, and I want to make it plain as day. You need to keep calling and bothering them and losing them money.
Because if we lose this, they are going to cut more and more from what's available until you can only buy what they approve of.

You know what's funny about Chris Pratt
If you saw him on twitter, you had his number years ago. People who are asshats who do social media, show themselves to be asshats over time pretty quickly.
That's a great thing about social media, imo.

However bad you think Facebook’s leadership is, however cynical and venal and opportunistic, they are worse.
a clip of James Acaster on the Great British Back off saying, "Started making it. Had a breakdown. Bon appetite." as he presents a dish to the judges.
living through 2025 and having to wake up, go to work, handle responsibilities etc feels like this
There are too many things to be mad at, plz, my poor brain
We gotta get back to calling our representatives tomorrow with 5calls.org, for this and everything else that’s happening right now 💀
Because it cleared hurdles, yes, but support for this is shaky (even for some Republicans) and with enough continued outrage we CAN sink this ridiculous proposal!
to be clear, Iranian Parliament has voted to allow the Security Council to make the determination, apparently not every country just takes major geopolitical decisions based on one guy's mood swings

A US federal judge has ordered the release of 20-yr-old US citizen Adrian Martinez who was kidnapped by Trump regime forces.
