@404media.co continues to report how #ICE and #Palantir are collaborating to Gestapo-ize the state's #surveillance tech... www.404media.co/elite-the-pa...

okay, a lot of folks reacting to this like it's not true, but when you look at data it's *extremely* true of the present moviegoing situation oh, what's that? you, a not normal person, as evidenced by being on Bluesky, *do* regularly drive hours to see movies? congrats! not most people

Trump joins a not-so-long list of people who have acquired someone else's Nobel medal, including... uh... Joseph Goebbels. www.nobelpeaceprize.org/press/press-...

Merciful. Wow. This is North Korea shit like verbatim

Pretty sure everyone from the old Deadspin comments is now an antifascist PTA member

The actual story is that a family of American citizens trying to evacuate from a neighborhood that ICE had made unsafe, and then ICE tossed munitions into the car, causing three kids to be hospitalized and a six month old to stop breathing. DHS called the family “radical agitators”

hi! i would like to reup my request for ANY AND ALL PEOPLE FIGHTING DATA CENTERS IN THEIR COMMUNITIES TO PLEASE REACH OUT TO ME i am now covering data center conflicts for @heatmap.news my email is [email protected]

I wonder what happens when you subsidize demand

Trump’s playbook from the very beginning, applied to pretty much everything he has done, has been to consciously and unconsciously make his fictions real, a perpetual desperate effort to show he was right by bringing his lies to life after he tells them

Trump has 4 days of golf and parties in Palm Beach that he’s trying to get to when this is over. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Kidnapping reporters just like they did in the 60’s

Roses are red Nazis are lurking Beware of them here because

Publishing the names of protesters and contacting their employers to have them fired for exercising their rights is a tactic straight out of the White Citizens Councils.

Every election we have to endure the sight of politicians standing in cornfields and steel mills and saying these people are REAL Americans, as opposed to 91% of the labor force.

I feel pretty misunderstood by people living in rural areas, and yet mysteriously, this isn’t considered a problem. I’m sick of putting up with this idiotic display of obeisance to chucklefucks simply because they live in rural areas.

When Trump says, "We're cutting out the insurance companies," how is he planning to cover catastrophic health events? An HSA ain't gonna do it.

There's a reason there's a massive overlap between the exploitative, patriarchal, lying world of multi-level-marketing scams and the MAGA-verse. This book is indeed fantastic. bsky.app/profile/rick...

America is presently being run by a 79 year old man in decline, a retinue of veteran Republican lunatics and grifters, and a rabble of millennial and Zoomer Nazis.

I've long wondered when they'd start allowing 401k withdrawals as a "solution" to policy problems they've let fester.

"ICE AGENTS VERBALLY ASSAULTED AT MN RESTAURANT"

Visualizing an attack on Greenland with its arctic terrain reminds me of this amazing story. One of my favorite books, it tells the incredible story of a resistance fighter on the run amidst a Nazi-occupied Norway. The fjords and topography play a starring role in his harrowing journey.

Cops are great Also: guillotines

One of the stories that makes me the saddest out of this ICE invasion is one out of the Minnesota Star Tribune today about ICE agents eating at a little Mexican restaurant in the small town of Willmar, Minn, —and then, when they were done, arresting some of the workers.

“How dare you discuss politics on my social media feed dedicated to capitalism”

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports. And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.” Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

If anyone was still pretending this isn’t just about excluding trans kids from public life, the Trump administration just opened a Title IX investigation into a Maine school district because a trans student is on a *co-ed* cheerleading squad.

1. It's been more than a day since 2 of America's most storied newsrooms, CBS and ABC, reported that killer ICE agent Jon Ross suffered "internal bleeding" based on unnamed sources Since then - No other news org has confirmed the story - No evidence (photos, medical records) has been produced

The Nobel Prize museum in Oslo subtweeting the fuck out of Trump today.

Goodbye, academic freedom. The newly selected dean of the University of Arkansas law school had her offer rescinded after conservative state legislators learned that she had signed onto "friend of the court" briefs challenging bans on trans athletes in sports. arktimes.com/arkansas-blo...

seeing some ppl who aren't happy with this being polled. so, my rep was very clear they wanted to defund ICE. it seemed like they were gathering data to (a) maybe educate constituents and (b) maybe persuade colleagues. 1

Brett, how you doin?

I have had at least on younger person complain to me about this. "you know I get a notification sound every time you hit send"

With “Wikimedia Enterprise”, AI companies have to use (and pay for) dedicated APIs to scrape data, which helps to limit the strain on Wikimedia servers. (See eg arstechnica.com/information-...) This is a good thing for Wikimedia and for its readers.

I appreciate how the writers keep giving us callbacks to the white nationalist past, like Special Order 191 here.

Not a single democrat will speak out against water freezing

Molly's being characteristically thoughtful. I'll be more of an asshole: THE AI COMPANIES HAVE USED WIKIPEDIA'S SHIT FOR YEARS. It costs millions of fucking dollars in infrastructure to serve up content to these companies. Should Wikipedia subsidize them? No? Then it's *good* they're getting paid!

So, if I'm following all this correctly, a bunch of internet shitposters who spent years screaming "don't tread on me" and warning about federal agents stomping out people's rights... have been hired as ICE agents to go around breaking into people's homes, kidnapping & shooting them

Not only has Rand Paul increased this cost by a factor of 10,000, there was actually useful science behind the research as I explained in 2021. wapo.st/4pKScAV

Somebody could formulate this thought better than me, but notice how the right uses the idea of maternal protection to dismantle public health infrastructure, but disparages the women protecting their kids from ICE gangs.

for a certain type of Boston guy this is gonna cause incidents similar to when yet more conservative boomers find out that Bruce Springsteen is a lib

from a thread by a historian of Reconstruction. this bit seems key

We recently tested ~ a dozen public statements from a diverse set of Democratic elected officials on the murder of Renee Good and this was the top testing one

And there it is.

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents. Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center. Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.

i don't really give a shit if consultants think being anti-ICE is "good messaging" or whatever when people are actively being shot, beat, gassed and jailed.
