Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus? TRUMP: Suspending who? Q: Habeas corpus TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

Wow, tell me more about Weimar Germany and what came after?

Donald Trump is breaching the Constitution and breaking the law. A show of force so he can militarize our cities because of the 2026 elections. We need to stand up together and speak up.

“This is a man who’s suffering dementia,” said @govpritzker.illinois.gov. “This is a man who has something stuck in his head … He doesn’t read. He doesn’t know anything that’s up to date. It’s just something in the recesses of his brain that is effectuating to have him call out these cities.”

Cis-het-allo people I cannot emphasize how thoroughly queer folks have given up on the possibility that you would do the right thing for the right reasons and are resorting to appeals to your self-interest.

NEW: I spoke to clergy and faith leaders who've joined protests at the Chicago-area ICE facility. Three say they've been shot with pepper balls, sometimes while praying. All say ICE is also violating their religious freedom, and one is arguing it in court. religionnews.com/2025/10/07/i...

yes

"you are taking in the human centipede of content from the very end of the line" is such a good way of describing AI

This time of year is when witchy women are at their most powerful so you better give them little treats

“Secretary Kennedy is entitled to his views. But he is not entitled to put people’s health at risk.” Six former surgeons general condemn RFK Jr.

One of the more incredible stories out of LA this year has been how a taco review blog became the best on-the-ground coverage of ICE raids in the city. They do a dispatch every day, follow-up on the kidnapped people (which almost no media outlet has done), and fact-check government claims.

It's "Downfall", but German citizens aren't in the middle of WWII, so everybody's just waiting for him to die.

wait it's possible to move from pilot studies to permanent implementation of basic income? please tell everyone except Andrew Yang about this

I'm so tired. I just want to cook a dinner rotation where meals don't randomly double in price all the time

As a bit of a scholar of glam metal myself I wrote about how Peacemaker season 1 brilliantly used the maligned genre in its soundtrack and I made a playlist of songs that people who enjoy James Gunn’s picks should like as well.

Claim: 10 cars rammed ICE Truth: No cars rammed ICE Claim: She boxed ICE in Truth: ICE boxed her in Claim: She shot a rifle at ICE Truth: She did not have a rifle Claim: ICE returned fire Truth: Only ICE fired Claim: She drove herself to the hospital Truth: Paramedics found her

On the contrary, every single one of them voted for every single bit of what’s happening right now.

"anti-AI people should just learn more about it" motherfucker I know so much about it, that's why I'm anti-AI

ICE kidnaps little kids.

Current treatments require repeated injections directly into the eye, but this vaccine can be delivered intramuscularly, making it less invasive AND easier to administer. The study has been published in Vaccine. YES, it is PEER-REVIEWED. • www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... 🧪🧵⬇️

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a new mRNA vaccine that has been shown to suppress abnormal blood vessel growth in the retina, offering hope to MILLIONS of patients with age-related vision loss. The vaccine triggered strong antibody responses that REDUCED retinal damage by UP TO 85%.

Got yelled at by my university for posting on LinkedIn that I'm open to jobs abroad because things are looking bleak in the US. Somehow this was interpreted as a bad look for the university? I'm just saying what everyone recognizes as reality.

If you don't already follow Eric, I highly recommend it; his reporting on and analysis of politics is clear and accessible, and he's especially good at cutting through confusion and messaging to present facts, not scaremongering.

The government said it was going to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda. Then it said Eswatini. But today, a DOJ attorney just told a federal judge that they haven't formalized a plan for removal yet. They apparently haven't even contacted Eswatini about the plan to remove Abrego there.

Look. Invading our own country is about as straightforward a case as you can have for impeachment. The GOP abandoning the Constitution is kind of the only story there is and it gets no coverage.

Out For A Walk .... Bitch

“We”

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram. Community action works. Source: www.instagram.com/reel/DPZL2AL...

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

THIS IS STILL A THING I HELPED ON HAVE YOU SEEN IT I MADE CLAPTRAP DO THE HOMER SPINNING WALK

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

This ostentatious Christian with the big cross around her neck is really saying that people who cannot prove their citizenship in an emergency room should be left on the sidewalk to die. And that's what she believes.

I did a playlist for Queen Demon, which will be out Tuesday October 7 in hardcover, ebook and audiobook (narrated by Eric Mok). Published by Tor Books, edited by Lee Harris, cover art by Cynthia Sheppard, design by Christine Foltzer and Greg Collins. marthawells.dreamwidth.org/670115.html

Well, if only there were a large supply of foreign students who would happily pay a premium price to get access to American higher education.

SCOOP — Pennsylvania prosecutors were alerted to possible voting irregularities by one of MAGA's leading voices against voter fraud. A long paper trail shows Jack Posobiec has been living in Maryland but voting using his parents' PA address for years. From @jsweetli.bsky.social, @slate.com + me:

A lot of tech bros who were upset about pronouns want to confer them on their computers now that they’re dating

Absolutely insane push notification lol

I get a lot of joy out of being a compassionate professor. Helping students improve their writing and knowledge is a blessing. My classrooms are happy, fun, at times serious, intense, respectful places of learning. The right will never understand, because for us, teaching is a form of love, not hate

i looked at the methodology for this and it is a. sex addiction counseling group in texas did a surveymonkey and extrapolated the results to the entire us population which is the sort of research design that earns you an ff on an intro methods class (the extra f is for extra effort), and b. p-hacked

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

It's kind of wild that in this shutdown fight, if you follow the logic of what Republicans are saying, they are basically arguing that if a person shows up at an ER bleeding out from a gun wound or suffering from a cardiac arrest, they should be turned away if they can't show their papers.

Vance's most monumental achievement to date has been being told off by two popes in one year.

Today is a good day to make yourself less palatable to other people.

The National Weather Service does critical weather tracking that keeps people safe from storms and natural disasters. But the Trump admin’s Project 2025/DOGE cuts to the agency are pushing staff to their breaking point. Cuts are putting lives at risk.

The part of Orwell's 1984 that everyone forgets is how human music has been replaced by soulless, machine-generated pop songs. The AI attempt to take over the film and music industries is an attack on the human spirit. Boycott AI actors. Boycott AI bands. Support human artists.
