#Charlottesville FLOCK camera map (can be found at deflock.me) There are 10 active cameras reported in the City limits. They need to all be promptly removed by city maintenance staff.

so uh.. I’m not exactly some naval warfare expert, but I do know how to use wikipedia, and it seems kinda fucking nuts to now build nearly as many battleships as the US deployed in the *entirety of WWII*—the war in which the concept was proven ALMOST ENTIRELY OBSOLETE because of aircraft carriers

it’s very clear that beneath all the lies, the real rationale for sending a bunch of perfectly nice and normal dudes to CECOT was to deter immigration by saying “you will end up in hell if you come here”. personally I think we have to deter THAT malignancy with trials and harsh, speedy punishment.

Anyone who sends people to concentration camps to be tortured should be tried and, if found guilty, hanged like the Nazis they are.

lol good job bari you fuckin dipshit

No sooner do we send out a fundraising email noting a precipitous drop in funds than two new bond requests come in totaling $15,000. Can we bring some detained folks home for the holidays? 🙏🏻 Thanks, y’all. secure.actblue.com/donate/ccfre...

think we might need to start issuing licenses if you want to drive a shopping cart during the holidays

SCOOP: Flock left at least 60 of its AI-powered, people-tracking surveillance cameras exposed and livestreaming to the open internet. We tracked ourselves. The exposure highlights the power of these cameras and types of things they're tracking. Not just cars. www.404media.co/flock-expose...

all of these people have to be made to pay

yes yes obviously these people are all still evil and should have done the last honorable thing decades ago, but this really is a notable schism that is very worth recognizing in a tactical and strategic sense

A sign of the times: Mike Pence is getting his revenge on the Heritage Foundation, which helped push Jan 6. Pence is now poaching its staffers for his new organization, taglined "The Conservative Movement Lives Here". And his board is led by his key advisers on Jan 6, who pushed back on Trump. 1/2

i hope the journalists at CBS rally their integrity and burn it the fuck down

it’s so annoying that i have to know what so many stupid incurious and hateful bigoted people are up to all the time. i shouldn’t even have to know what a “bari weiss” is.

Third Way Terrified to Learn of Fourth Way

there's no such thing as a "heritage american" and brain-damaged constitutional law professors and members of the vox cinematic universe treating it with respect is bad, and they should be berated borders are fake, and america is what it is in the best sense due to periodically recognizing that

this motherfucker

there should be a service where you can rent friendly and snuggly cats for an afternoon. I cannot reasonably support like 10-15 cats in my home, but I would like to at least once experience taking a nap while just completely buried under a massive pile of fuzzy purring kitties

mr stephen miller sir, have you considered taking up boxing

What the fuck does "laser reinforced" mean?

ok more right wing influencers get in the ring with a trained fighter please, I have developed a hunger

my studied intellectual take on data guy discourse is that we should give all those nerds a swirlie

carefully assembling the annual list of holiday break projects, of which approximately 20% may actually be accomplished

The grand project of the next few generations will necessarily be the eradication of the culture of the American right. It will be the gutting of their influence from society, their religious views, and way of raising children. I'd have clear eyes about that now lest you get weepy later.

the thing is I have never ever ever seen any other reporter admit this in their bio. "Finance is a new beat for me, so what I cover will be shaped by what I learn in the following weeks." "I've never covered the auto industry and I have never owned a car, but I'm eager to learn more about this beat"

everybody’s feeling very comfycozy tonight

"Staunton announced this afternoon that it will end its contract with Flock Safety and remove the six automated license plate readers installed throughout the city."

Well that settles the question of whether Beardsley’s tenure as president will be short or long

a dumb little multiplayer phone game I waste time with has a server merge coming up and my god it is hilarious how much some people are willing to politic over the stupidest shit

I’ll say too that based on her statement about the board not being legal, Spanberger has to take the steps to get the ball rolling towards removing Beardsley. Her credibility depends on it

well thank god there’s some extremely funny news dropping this afternoon too

Spanberger should remove the whole board on day 1.

People frequently characterize it as a launch pad, but here's proof that somebody can spend their whole life working for McKinsey.

y’all are not gonna have me fighting a bunch of snotnosed little republican nazis on a friday no sir, that is a monday kind of problem

Bodacious scofflaws!! Co-conspirators, collaborators, maniacs and grifters. The whole lot!!

big day for inflatable christmas decorations taking sudden flight

Chief B knows what they did.

topical

"I want to be absolutely clear of what happened in this case," defense counsel said Thursday. "These charges were dismissed today, not because of a legal technicality, and not because the evidence was weak or questionable; they were dismissed because there was no evidence, none."

hey you guys I’m starting to think Darden and the law school might be, speaking broadly and excepting some few individuals, just a teensy bit evil

well now this seems like a bit of a fucking problem.
