For folks in the notes very upset that she only has two babies left: These baby possums are of dispersion size - they’re big enough to leave mom and fend for themselves. These two are just the ones who haven’t moved out yet.

Oh wow I had no idea they were so tiny when they left home! Our possums in Australia don’t have as many babies so they’re generally 1/3 to ½ the size of the mum when they get kicked out.

I would definitely assume a baby opossum was abandoned if I hadn’t been told otherwise.

Every year wildlife rehabs are delivered many perfectly healthy baby possums for this exact reason and generally, it means they get a little boost of assured safety, food, and hydration before being released. Imagine, you’re newly 18 and starting your adult life - you’re just kind of walking around, maybe on your way to community college or something, and a Kindly Cosmic Horror picks you up, carries you to a fancy hotel where you are given several really excellent meals and maybe receive a series of vaccinations, then you are dropped into a resource-rich area approximately nearby where the first Kindly Cosmic Horror picked you up. This is how life is for young Virginia possums every spring.

Everything about this delights me.

Hey.

Don’t post online about what protests you plan to attend.

Be safe. Be smart. Don’t fall for the weird pressure to liveblog political actions when we live in a surveillance state.

And for fuck’s sake, stop posting unredacted pictures of people at protests. It’s not a fucking party. It’s a political action and you could get someone killed. I have a personal friend who was doxxed and harassed for MONTHS in 2020 after their photo at a protest got passed around by neonazis. Do not be a part of that happening to someone.

ICE fucking abandoned the scene in a Minneapolis neighborhood and left their battle plans and designs on the city, fake license plates, and challenge tokens which they reward themselves for arrests. Looney Tunes shit.

“Demonstrators investigating the abandoned ICE vehicles apparently retrieved these “challenge coins” that ICE mercenaries receive when they kidnap people. This “coin” is decorated with a skull wearing a crown. ICE mercenaries serve king death.”


hello whta the everloving fuck is this are ICE just cult members who believe themselves to be some kinda assassin creed shit?

It’s Nazi paraphernalia

Sweden, Norway and Germany are deploying troops for a reconnaissance mission in Greenland.

Source.

As have France.

People in the comments going ‘No need to worry, they only sent 20 people’ as if that’s not the very fucking obvious plan.

Seriously, it’s very clear what’s happening here.

They’re human shields.

There is no force that NATO could deploy to Greenland that could successfully repel an American invasion.

What they’re doing is making a statement: if you want to take Greenland, you have to kill our soldiers too. You will not be going to war with Denmark, you will be going to war with all of us.

This is making it clear to the Trump administration that there will be no political hemming and hawing, there will be no debate over whether they’ll respond to Article 5 being invoked. An attack on Greenland is an attack on all of these nations, because it literally will be.

So think twice.

Department of Homeland Security had a data breach and now over 3,000 employees info has been released

Database the names and motherfucking faces.

Site appears to be working for now (January 16, 2026) but has been up and down since it was announced, due to Russian(!) DDOS attacks. If you get a timeout or an error, just wait a while and try again.

Gee, wonder why Russia wants to protect ICE?

Or maybe it’s just DHS buying services from the Russian dark net?

You know technology literacy is dying because I saw this meme with 76k likes

F11 the full screen button? You’re scared of the full screen button? F10?? It opens the menu bar???

Computers are so scary what if I accidentally hit F12 in a steam game and it takes a screenshot. What if I press shift + F12 while in word and accidentally save my document 😖

If you had to learn what the F keys on your computer do through me reblogging this post, then I’m glad you did. Computer literacy is not a skill that gets taught anymore, and it is absolutely one that needs to be taught in order to be learned. Don’t ever feel bad for not knowing something, but ☝️ don’t ever stop learning learning about your environment, the tools you use, and especially the people around you

by the way guys, this deployment of ice to minnesota is largest ever. more agents than chicago. we are a much less dense state. we are being inundated.

It is the largest Department of Homeland Security operation in history. And yet Minnesota’s Somali population (this operation’s primary target) is upwards of 90% naturalized American citizens. It’s even more of a manufactured crisis than most DHS operations. Genuinely living in Minnesota now feels like we’re a small country on the brink of invasion.

I saw two ICE trucks yesterday on my way to give my friends back their house keys from when I was looking after their cats. I got home today and I heard whistles and honking from people chasing ICE, but by the time I got Matilda in the house they were gone so I couldn’t join in the chase. I know there was a major attempt to steal my neighbors from just a few blocks away this morning while I was at work.

It doesn’t feel like we’re on the brink of invasion. It feels like we’re being newly occupied by an invading force. Except that the invading force doesn’t just want our total submission; they also want to rip half our neighbors out of our arms. They came for Hmong Minnesotans next, and they are also more than 90% citizens. We have a lot of minority populations who settled here because Minnesota prides itself on welcoming refugees; both populations have been here for more than thirty years.

Fuck this shit. It is terrorism.

Not just feels like, is. Feels like because is.

And for all the rest of us US occupants not in Minnesota, it’s coming to us, too. Ohio is getting door-to-door ICE today, for instance, and I’ve seen multiple friends in other states posting photos of big ol’ trucks, beds packed with ICE vehicles, rolling in to town.

We’re still not quite two weeks into 2026. Get ready to plant your feet.
