Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan. Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”

This not the full video, just a clip of Pretti’s gun being removed.

There's a prison revolt at a concentration camp in Texas in solidarity with Minneapolis:

ICE appear to have murdered another person in Minneapolis; after half a dozen regime thugs jumped and beat a man who tried to defend himself they shot him, an agent can be seen shooting him after his body laid motionless on the sidewalk. #3E #GoodvsEvil

CNN: DHS officials have come to FEMA staff and told them to limit the use of the word ice…they are worried that by posting something like, watch out for the ice, that it's going to become a meme….

🚨"We wonder why people in the 1930s were quiet, we need to show we weren't quiet. History is gonna look back at all the people that didn't show up—their grandkids are gonna ask what were they doing! It's like -10 degrees and we're here!" -Minneapolis ICE protester. LIVE NOW⬇️

💯 Every. Fucking. Word.

I hate this. 🗣️FUCK #ICE

Photo of the Day. A young woman, identifying herself as disabled & going to a doctors appointment, had her car windows smashed, was dragged out, cuffed & led away by ICE agents. The incident happened at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, not far from Renee Good’s murder. *Credit to photographer, Tim Evans

From what I can make out here: - She says she just wants to pass by. - When they start to pull her from the car, she says, "I'm disabled," "I'm on my way to a doctor appointment" and points up the street - She keeps her hands off the wheel, for the most part.

BREAKING: ICE agents in Minneapolis violently detained and arrested a U.S. citizen for one reason only: he refused to prove his citizenship. No crime. No warrant. No probable cause.

So, leaders of other countries can be held liable for (so-called) illegal acts, but ours cannot?

And I guess that means I will stop listening to the show. I have listened to it for over 10 years. But I will not support a group who does not have everyone's backs.

Nothing has made me smile for the past few days since I have been sick. This definitely had me grinning. Hope she trounces everyone!

I may be a little late to this video but @mattcolville.bsky.social did an awesome job of summarizing why moderating your community is so important. I used to do what he is saying back in my Twitter days. I miss our old community. www.youtube.com/watch?v=emdk...

We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com. We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans. washingtonpost.com/politics/int...

As a veteran teacher, all I can say is that teachers and schools should be fighting this takeover with everything they have.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

This thread is an important one to everyone in (or thinking of going into) the physics community. The not-so-well-guarded "secret" of why there are so few women in physics.

Hi Bluesky friends! I've been MIA for a while, but I'm coming back because I have some fun news... I'm helping the Astronomical Society of the Pacific sell/rehome their library because they are downsizing their office space. There are sooooooo many cool finds. I'm going to share as many as I can! 🔭

@artologica.net can you help me reach the #SciArt community with this? There are lots of old books/papers/atlases that I thought collage artists might be interested in...

New this year, they also calculated the angle of the velocity vector at their ring and tilt the ring to be perpendicular to the velocity. Link:

This year's edition of Rings of Fire! Students are given initial height and velocity of the launched marble. Each group has to calculate the height of their ring at their assigned horizontal distance. #EduSky #iTeachPhysics

You can start the series by noting the big picture role the NYTimes played in causing the research funding to be cut. The NYTimes normalized and sane washed the president, when it was obvious that he was exhibiting clear signs of early to early mid-level dementia.

Are there problems with the Catholic church? Sure are. But as far as this philosophy goes, the pope's got the goods.

Trump donor Larry Ellison’s Oracle will oversee TikTok’s algorithm. His media company owns CBS News and is plotting a bid for Warner Bros., which owns CNN. When billionaires take control of communication platforms, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy.

This is amazing.

It's both here and the Wallops Island Visitors Center, in Virginia. No other visitor center in the NASA system is shutting down. This isn't economics, this is spiteful. And we don't have a Barbra Mikulski like figure to stop this nonsense.

Federal immigration agents were seemingly forced to retreat from a roofing job site in Rochester, NY, after being confronted by more than 100 protesters The workers stayed on the roof and agents drove away in a Border Patrol SUV on four flat tires, which had been slashed

I can't stop thinking about how I would adapt #Daggerheart to the classroom.For 30 years I ran project-based, inquiry science lessons in my physics, astronomy and science classes. This system really leans into that group-thinking dynamic. I would love to talk to other educators who think the same

Last night I ran the 2nd session of #Daggerheart for a group of players who've been playing DnD for 30 years.Unintentionally,it ended up being (mostly) 2 big battles-because of player choices.What resulted was 3 hours of hilarity,chaos,stress & fun.I have never seen this group so engaged in combat.

MADDOW: “Watch what he does, not what he says.” @maddow.msnbc.com asks the media to zoom out and see Trump firing professionals in law enforcement and the military as a precursor for what he’s planning to ask them to do — and imagine if it was happening in another country.
