does supporting air strikes against data centers come with a number of side effects that may be hard to predict? well so does climate change, dummy, and we're doing that and I think my thing is more fun.

Last night at the AJJ show, had a brief interaction with a dude who complimented my tshirt & then said "If you like Nestor Makhno..." yes okay obvs "...you should check out my album on Bandcamp." Reader, I cackled because that was the wildest way to finish a sentence. I couldn't have ever imagined.

Wisconsin's DNR repeatedly requested Enbridge keep its Line 5 pipeline shut down following the largest oil & gas spill in state history on Aug. 25. Enbridge defied the requests, built a new pipeline to bypass the rupture and restarted Line 5’s operations: unicornriot.ninja/2026/canadia...

Saw a young woman at the public library today wearing a whole getup that I can only describe as "what if Minnie Mouse was an opposite furry and trying to be a trad-daughter influencer". I'm talking white gloves and frilly socks and the starkest blush line I've seen outside of a drag show.

Do not carry a cold beverage in their presence. Politely decline any drinks or sweetmeats they may offer. Keep a plain iron nail in your left trouser pocket and a sachet or paper twist of coarse salt in your right shoe. Enter and leave your chair moving clockwise. Follow up with a thank-you note.

One of the most important and powerful things art can do is not to reflect yourself back to you, especially as you'd like to see yourself, but to make you imagine someone whose life is very different from yours, whose values may be very different from yours, and to consider them as a full person.

I am so tired of hearing about ‘scams’ on this topic. People are paying thousands to insurance & aren’t getting healthcare. Everyone is addicted to gambling because it’s everywhere. You don’t care about scams. You just don’t want to feel bad about not wanting to help. But it’s fine to not want to.

We are a broken nation. Hundreds of thousands of Haitians were living and working legally, paying taxes, and contributing. Haiti remains wholly unsafe. But Trump hates Haitians, and the White House wanted videos of Black people in chains, so they stripped them of status and turned on the cameras.

BREAKING: Enbridge’s aging Line 5 pipeline is spilling natural gas liquids in northern Wisconsin. The rupture occurred just east of the Bad River Reservation near Lake Superior on August 25, 2026. According to Enbridge, an unoccupied semi-truck rolled into an excavation site and struck the pipeline.

Despite Illinois’ TRUST Act, at least 75 local agencies in more than one-third of the state’s counties helped federal immigration authorities flag, detain or deport at least 150 people in Trump’s first 15 months back in office.

Working with anarchist artist NO BONZO, we've made a support poster to inform people about the Minneapolis 15 case. 15 people are federally charged with conspiracy for allegedly defending their neighborhoods from ICE. Please print these out and post them everywhere! crimethinc.com/posters/supp...
A poster reading:

Support the Minnesota fifteen!

The US Attorney’s Office in Minneapolis has charged fifteen people with “conspiracy to impede federal officers,” accusing them of defending their neighborhoods from ICE.

Across Minnesota and all around the country, hundreds of thousands of people have come together to form rapid response networks and protect their neighbors from mercenaries who are separating parents from their children and brutalizing people regardless of their immigration status. As ICE agents murder people in the streets, federal authorities want to pretend that those who stand up to ICE represent the real threat to the public.

This prosecution is a part of NSPM-7, the Trump administration’s initiative to turn the War on Terror against “antifa”—which is to say, against anyone who opposes fascism. The goal of these charges is to intimidate people out of standing up for each other. Make no mistake, this prosecution is directed at all who do not welcome authoritarianism. If it succeeds, they will repeat this strategy again, targeting more and more people.

In the face of fascist violence, the only route to safety is collective organizing. Solidarity is self-preservation. The harder it is for them to capture today’s targets, the longer it will take them to target the rest of us.

Support the Minnesota fifteen!

Scapegoats are emotionally cheaper than systems. Blaming the left asks nothing of you. It feels good and righteous and right. Asking whether your institutions and your party failed you requires dismantling beliefs you have spent your lifetime building. That is emotionally expensive.
