"There Will Come Soft Rains"
I first read this story when I was very young, and constantly plowing through stuff that went way over my head. I didn't get it at all, to be honest. Years later, I picked up a copy of THE MARTIAN CHR...

The argument usually boils down to “this person, who seems in every aspect to be a Nazi, cannot be a Nazi, because Nazis are socially unacceptable, and he is being accepted, for example by Me.”

it's wild approaching film from a horror angle specifically, because everyone else is all "cinema is dead. everything is remakes of remakes and all is ashes" and then you talk to a horror fan and they say "yeah i don't know how I'm gonna have time to see the 17 original films that opened this week"

People will tell you it's useless to learn to identify AI image "tells" as the software will keep improving. Considering that images with obvious tells are still being circulated as real by well-meaning people who just don't know what to look for, I really don't think that's true.

This "but how to find real people in need amongst the scammers?" conversation relies on the unquestioned assumption that no one "we" know could possibly have personal ties to anyone in Gaza and thus we're all flying blind in regards to finding real people to help. Go speak with another human!

There's no excuse for someone who's supposed to be representing millions of New Yorkers to say that the problem is "not enough Christianity" (though if NY lost senators every time one did something that should be disqualifying, we'd have nothing but a smoking crater where Schumer used to be).

A lot of acknowledgement these days that "the lefties were right", "the alarmists were right", but you know what else? College students circa 2015 were right. They put up with endless bullshit from the "adults in the room" about how they were stupid snowflakes for calling out inequities (1/3)

What really gets me is the gap between the fantasy world that was popularized in the 2010s, where college students were too coddled to understand that a university is a place for challenging ideas, and actual reality, where a university isn't allowed to "challenge" state-approved dogma.

one thing I love about law & order is the cops are reacting to fairly mundane things as if they're brand new concepts. like they'll be at a doctor's office talking about egg freezing and someone will say, in the most brooklyn accent possible, "you're telling me that freezer's got BABIES in it?"

Here's my commonsense reform for ICE, Chuck: 1) Abolish the agency 2) Prosecute all agents & leadership to the fullest extent possible (incl. Noem & Miller) 3) Bar all former agents from any federal jobs going forward, whether it's a law enforcement position or otherwise

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.
1. I am a resident of the Whittier neighborhood of Minneapolis, Minnesota. I am over 18 years of age. I am a children's entertainer who specializes in face painting.
2. On Saturday, January 24, 2026, at about 8:50 am, I was getting ready to go to work when I heard whistles outside. I knew the whistles meant that ICE agents were in the area, so I decided to check it out on my way to work. I've been involved in observing in my community because it is so important to document what ICE is doing to my neighbors. Connecting to your local community and knowing who your neighbors are is something I profoundly value.
3. I drove to Nicollet Ave. and 26th where I could hear the whistles coming from. I turned south onto Nicollet. There were already several ICE agents there and they'd set up a sort of vehicle convoy on Nicollet and 28th. There were also about 15 observers there, recording and observing ICE.
4. I saw ICE agents surrounding cars and punching car windows. I also saw them stopping vehicles further down Nicollet, so I backed up because I didn't feel safe continuing on.
5. I noticed a man sort of acting to help traffic move more smoothly. He helped me find a place to park. I got out with my whistle and my camera. I went over to him and said something like, "I'm going to film and use my whistle."
6. It seemed like most ICE activity was happening a little farther down the street from us, near 27th. Someone was being thrown to the ground.7. I started recording. There was an agent by a car across the street. Two observers were a few feet away from the agent, blowing their whistles. One was wearing a backpack.
8. I and the man who was observing and helping direct traffic were standing in the street. There was a phone in the man's hand recording a video.
9. An agent approached and asked us to back up, so I moved slowly back onto the sidewalk.
10. The man stayed in the street, filming as the other observers I mentioned earlier were being forced backward by another ICE agent threatening them with pepper spray. The man went closer to support them as they got threatened, just with his camera out. I didn't see him reach for or hold a gun.
11. Then the ICE agent shoved one of the other observers to the ground. Then he started pepper spraying all three of them directly in the face and all over. The man with the phone put his hands above his head and the agent sprayed him again and pushed him.
12. Then the man tried to help up the woman the ICE agent had shoved to the ground. The ICE agents just kept spraying. More agents came over and grabbed the man who was still trying to help the woman get up. All three of the observers looked to have been badly affected by the pepper spray. I could feel the pepper spray in my eyes.13. The agents pulled the man on the ground. I didn't see him touch any of them-he wasn't even turned toward them. It didn't look like he was trying to resist, just trying to help the woman up. I didn't see him with a gun. They threw him to the ground. Four or five agents had him on the ground and they just started shooting him. They shot him so many times.
14.1 don't know why they shot him. He was only helping. I was five feet from him and they just shot him.
15. The video I recorded of what happened accurately depicts the events leading up to the agents shooting him and several minutes afterwards. The video is attached as Exhibit 1.
16. I have read the statement from DHS about what happened and it is wrong. The man did not approach the agents with a gun. He approached them with a camera. He was just trying to help a woman get up and they took him to the ground.
17. I feel afraid. Only hours have passed since they shot a man right in front me and I don't feel like I can go home because I heard agents were looking for me. I don't know what the agents will do when they find me. I do know that they're not telling the truth about what happened. I've heard that other witnesses might have been arrested and taken to the Whipple Building.
18. I am disgusted and gutted at how they are treating my neighbors and my state. I keep alternating between crying and feeling determined it is important to remember the value of documenting injustice. We show up for the people who need us to bearwitness, because it can't just be one group of people bearing the brunt of their tyranny. This is a struggle to protect our freedom and democracy, those things are on the line. He lost his life for those values.
I declare under penalty of perjury that everything I have stated in this document is true and correct.

Dated and signed on Jan 24, 2026 in Hennepin County, State of Minnesota.

Drawing of a blue squid playing a yellow trumpet. Although cartoonishly stylized, both squid and trumpet are anatomically accurate. The squid is blowing into the mouthpiece with its siphon, and operating the valves with three arms wrapped around the trumpet. The other five arms are being used as legs for the squid to stand on.

U.S. violence is only bad when it departs from its supposedly noble purpose... The implication being America is fundamentally good, its military is fundamentally virtuous, and deviations from that virtue are shocking. This is not the case nor the perception of anyone living outside of America.
