ICE has profiled and detained at least 5 Native people in Minneapolis in the past 2 weeks. One man has been identified and released, but the other four were unhoused and have yet to be located.

Homeless people who have been trying to survive the winter in tents said that ICE apparently detained four Oglala Sioux men without looking

hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset

the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years

taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult

at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)

'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65

it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age

it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.

you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.

young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!

there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big

btw i’ve never seen pacific rim but i had a dream last night that there was a new pacific rim movie and the kaiju and the big robots were fighting and there were all these gratuitous shots of them stepping directly on cybertrucks with the drivers still inside them and in an interview guillermo del toro said that those were his favorite shots in the entire movie

Great quick work, considering it's not trivial to get this information from Steam's default API

Really chuffed that they've just ran with it, and yeah that's a rapid turnaround.

Donate to Mohammed and his family and at the very least share his campaign. It has been extremely stagnant. Vetted here, campaign #320.

writing badly and cringily is actually an essential part of the writing process, both in terms of individual projects and in gaining voice and confidence as a writer in the long term. there is no way around the cringe. there's no way around the work.

I just found out two local gay artists were found murdered in their home. fuck. jesus. I knew these guys. I own their art. I've attended so many gallery openings at their shop. they've meant so much to the community here. and they're just fucking gone? just like that?

and of course the cops are claiming it's not a hate crime.

what a fucking cruel reminder that we can't ever trust that we're safe, not even in a historic gay neighborhood in a liberal city in a blue state. Mickey and Jordan, you won't be forgotten. I'm sorry.

hi all. I'm making this post rebloggable again to add the gofundmes set up for Mickey and Jordan's funeral costs. They've raised a lot already, which I think is a real testament to how loved they were by so many people. Mickey's brother, who organized his fundraiser, has said whatever is left over will go to causes that were close to their hearts.

I think I'm going to turn off reblogs when both fundraisers reach their goal. This is such an intensely painful thing to keep seeing in my notifs.
