A Dot a Day Keeps the Clutter Away

Nestled in the rolling fields of rural Alnwick, the old stone barns and cottages sit quietly against a backdrop of open meadows and distant woodland, offering a true #RuralEscape. The historic stonework and slate roofs evoke the timeless charm of Northumberland’s #HistoricBuildings, with a sense of peaceful isolation. Surrounded by tall grasses and wildflowers, the property blends seamlessly into the landscape, perfect for those seeking #CountrysideViews. Close to the sweeping countryside and heritage spots of Northumberland, it reflects the classic character of #StoneCottages found throughout the region.

Absolute 🔥 from @CrimethInc.

"A major Somali shopping center called Karmel Mall closed for the day. Daycare centers were forced to close when their staff demanded the day off. Workers forced a major AT&T call center to close. The biggest nursing home in the Twin Cities metro area held mandatory all-staff meetings to threaten to fire employees who participated, but those scare tactics failed and they faced mass absenteeism. The combined population of Minneapolis and Saint Paul is less than 750,000; that Friday, we saw an estimated 100,000 people take the streets in sub-zero temperatures. It is safe to conclude that at least one out of every eight Twin Cities residents took part in the general strike.

The leaderless character of the resistance to ICE in Minnesota is precisely what has made it effective. The decentralized nature of the rapid response groups has made them durable and agile. The initiative of autonomous fighters in the neighborhoods has enabled people to rise in revolt every time they have shot or murdered our neighbors. The horizontality of our mutual aid networks makes them opaque to the feds while enabling them to feed, clothe, and care for vulnerable families. No official organization would ever dare to call for the countless acts of bravery by which individuals have collectively propelled this movement forward. The everyday anarchism of the Minneapolis revolution is its greatest strength.

To the extent that we allow top-down forces to take control of the movement, we will compromise its structural integrity and set ourselves up to lose. With so much on the line, we can’t afford to let that happen."

With #meta blocking stories about the protests and strike in #Minnessota, it is a reminder of why platforms like the fediverse are important. This is a video of the clergy protest at the MSP airport today, passed along by a colleague, at which 97 clergy were arrested.

Hello,
I’m writing from the United States to send a small note of solidarity to NATO friends and allies around the world. Many of us here do not support threats or hostility toward other countries, and we are deeply scared (but not subdued) by the direction our country is heading. Our government does not speak for all of us,

I hope you and your loved ones are safe and well. With care from one human to another.

Peace
