I’ve got so many things to say here, and not much time to say it What I can say is, unlike dec -> early Jan, the last few weeks have been a period of quiet for me. I was talking before about how I had +700kloc then? It’s been zero the last few weeks.

if you want to know what it is like in minneapolis, I don’t even have to scroll on facebook to find a horror story. it’s basically my whole feed. everyone i know in minneapolis is seeing ICE take people—at gas stations, taquerias, bus stops, schools. just snatching random people.
#ICE is LITERALLY in every corner of the Twin Cities right now. In case you don't know, here are the areas with the confirmed sightings as of 1/9/26 at 11:00pm:
- Apple Valley/Burnsville/Eagan
- Richfield/Bloomington
- Midway/Frogtown
- Como/Dale
- East side/Maplewood
- North Minneapolis
- Shoreview Arden Hills
- Blaine
- Columbia Heights
- Shakopee/Prior Lake
- Inver Grove Heights
- West St. Paul
- South Saint Paul
- Lakeville
- Brooklyn Park/Brooklyn Center
PLEASE stay safe! They are detaining and harassing US citizens so if you can help it, STAY HOME!ICE is currently raiding an apartment complex near my home in Savage. Lots of children screaming. This is completely unnecessary. I'm certain these people being terrorized are hard working, law abiding individuals.&S!#%
&S!#%
My brother's construction site was raided by ICE this
morning and 6 people were taken (they came after he left to a new site so he didn't get taken, but some of the crew did). MN companies need to do a better job at protecting their employees. They know ICE is present visibily in the Twin Cities so they need to not send their employees to work until ICE ain't roaming the streets!!
&$!#%
&S!#%Ice is on 24th right by the resource center just started beating on someone for being under a blanket @highlight
And if you question me saying this I witnessed it with my own eyes!
They headed Southeast. White Jeep wagoneer grayish blue I think Toyota minivan

ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries. Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves. "Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks. "No, guess he should've complied," agent says. Yakima, Washington

Just got a text about a plane delay from United that ended with "(Powered by GenAI)" Those texts feel highly programmatic already. For what reason is GenAI even needed? Also feels like a dangerous use case? Air travel is 100% a case where you want precision in your messaging.

Political violence is bad. It usually begets more political violence. Celebrating political violence is bad. It usually encourages more political violence, against various targets. Campus shootings are bad. They make everyone on campus less safe. It's bad that what I wrote here is controversial.

It’s not simply important to denounce political violence because it looks bad not to. It’s the right thing to do on the merits. Even more specifically to this moment it’s important because the forces of fascism are inherently better at political violence than the forces of civic democracy.
