Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com

This man threw righteous and enraged "FUCK YOU!"'s exactly like a reincarnation of my father. If he were still with us he'd be screaming like that at the TV's (and in the streets once the goons got to our state). I'm glad he's not here to live this hell. Sad he's not here to bring that same energy.

Is his site down? Tried to visit and got “Forbidden” page… hoping this is because of the volume of traffic and not some tech bro shutting him down??? Anyone got an idea?

This is chemical warfare by this Nazi regime. As someone with progressive parents in their 70’s, one with asthma, this could undoubtedly kill a person especially in this brutal cold. I am so fucking angry too. God damn this Republican regime. And all their enablers.

They put you in a room filled with tear gas (without protection) as part of basic training in the Canadian Army at least and it didn't affect everyone the same. Either way, a trained person knows not to panic when tear gased. That said, yes he's an absolute badass.

Peaceful Protest...Today ~ McFydlstyk "This can no longer stand.", they say. As protesting crowds grow each day. Rain coming down in sheets can't deter them from the streets. Telling TACO, "We ain't here to play!". A'ho🪶

I live in the UK and have bought books direct from Greg at Dreamhaven myself. Absolute hero like all standing up to the atrocity that is ICE. Solidarity with you all from the other side of the Atlantic.

DreamHaven was where I discovered Pratchett, back when I was 19. They were importing the UK editions, and I’m not lying when I say I am a far better person because of Pratchett, so Greg gets at least a midwife credit on my soul.

We are winning this fight. It comes at an incredibly high cost to our immigrant communities, our native-born citizens, and we’ll all bear literal and emotional scars forever. But we are winning, and we will win because our enemies are cowards.

I’d like to support him too, the link doesn’t seem to work. Can you buy from his store on-line? I’m in New England. I’m so sorry what’s happened to him and all of Mpls, it’s such a great place. I think lots of ppl would like to support ppl like him if we can. 🙏💙😔

This man? Oh hell yeah, I'd buy books from him!

Protester in Minneapolis just before disappearing in gas: "Fuck you! Stop. Damn! I'm 70 years old and I'm fuckin' angry!"

took a few tries but it will go through! hopefully the influx of orders will not be a burden on him - i'd be happy waiting to get my order at any time in the near or distant future, if ever

I know this isn’t the point of this post, and if I ever have occasion to buy something that this man’s store sells, I will try to order it from his shop. But can we talk about this photo? This photo would be a hell of an album cover. He’s gotta find a way to use this photo in his marketing.

Also, for those of us that don’t live in the area and want to support him: Is there anything we can be doing besides supporting his store? Looks like the website is down because of high volume, but if he needs other kinds of help, maybe we can help in other ways.

I’m not certain if they would ship books to Canada so…. Any specific recommendations for books one could order and have sent to White House officials? Or, perhaps some schools or oranisations need books? I imagine there are more likeminded Canadians who may wish to do the same.

This dude might be the only reason that I in Canada would consider spending $ in America. Massive respect. We hate that the boycott is hurting good people, but this is Canada's best weapon. We're as repuled and angry as Greg is. I'm incandescently angry this week. What a fucking nightmare.

True Americans are with anyone around the world protesting the United States right now. We are horrified, scared, and doing what we can in our communities. Fuck this administration, and if tanking our own economy gets through in some way it's worth it.

Be under no illusion: we WILL freeze, starve, & be sleeping rough. This is going to hurt hard if they attack. Job #1: keep your people safe. You can't fight if your family is in danger. And yes - they WILL go full Nazi executing the families of any defenders. Anticipate reprisal murders.

Scorched Earth. Work with community & stock food, meds, equipment. They will attack us and take everything you own in your bank accounts in 24 hours. We kill their logistics, hit them in the rear, attack their cities, & deny access to anything and become the most poisonous pill they ever swallow.

I think arguably the saddest part of this regime is that we alienated our best friends in the world for absolutely no reason. Canada has been a good friend to us even when it was hard. I HATE that our relationship has been damaged so badly, and I hope that you can find a way to trust us again.

If the store website is glitching... they also sell through ABEbook Scroll to the very bottom of the stores webpage & the link in the photo is there 🖕🏼🧊
