Six people legally living in the US and legally traveling for work were disappeared by the US government and the only reason we knew about it was because one woman was family friends with a county commissioner and her cell phone pinged to two detention centers.

I can't get over this number: in 2007, there were 360,000 newspaper jobs. Now, there are 80,000. "My local paper sucked!" Sure. What sucks even more? The void. "I get all my news from the Guardian!" No, the Guardian doesn't report on your town council, your school board, local cops.

They incarcerated a white, retired British grandmother with a valid visa. For 2 months. I'm glad this article gets into what most don't: Even if you manage to get released, that's 2 months of not paying your bills. Her credit was wrecked. She's retired - younger folks would have lost their jobs.

on my way to see Brandi Carlisle and thinking about how much she collabs and the last few supergroups I know of (the Highwomen, Boygenius, etc). which living artists would you bring together to make an album, if you could?

bought tickets to tomorrow's Brandi Carlisle show ages ago and I just found out the opener is THE HEAD AND THE HEART ?!?

I have one of these and wear it every time I’m committing at night! Terrific safety measure and comfy too!

This is the strangest thing: I'm almost positive this article, which rewrites a thing I supposedly wrote, completely hallucinated an article I wrote?

🚨🚨🚨 I want to abolish ICE. Period. @rajaforil.bsky.social thanked ICE, funded ICE, and took money from an ICE contractor.

We've got a how-to on filing witness slips this session. Use our video to learn how to file a witness slip to support safe streets legislation and to oppose the kind that makes us less safe.

Ofelia Torres, the teenage Chicago Public Schools student whose fight against cancer while her father was detained by ICE came to represent the federal government's overreach during Operation Midway Blitz, has died. Brave young woman. I will never forget her. RIP.

jury’s out on whether I am capable of romantic love but at least I found a gem at the thrift store today

Incredible that the actor who played Dennis Duffy has done exactly the same bit in 15 years’ worth of commercials

CBP didn’t give her or anyone any water; she asked 3 times accg to other reports. CBP killed a 7yr old. “8 hours after the girl & her father were taken into custody, she began having seizures & her body temperature was measured at 105.7 degrees by emergency medical technicians. shorturl.at/d2OTJ

I don't know if it's really clear, outside of coverage of Mpls and pockets of organizing elsewhere, that hundreds of thousands of people are actively and at every level of society fighting our government as it abducts and imprisons and torments our neighbors.

a lot of "AI hype" discourse makes more sense when you realize that a lot of initial LLM/GenAI hype envisioned replacing artists and PhDs, and its actual impacts have been much greater on coders and other tech workers creatives/experts see "AI" as underperforming hype, techies see it overperforming

The bravery Marimar Martinez has shown in fighting the very federal government that tried to execute her to make it possible for all of us to see these messages is “name an elementary school after you” level of hero status.

Please don't accuse people in knitted hats of only wearing their supposed politics if all you're doing is posting, which is basically just another way of wearing your politics. It's a silly thing to attack people over in any case. Using fashion to signal support for ongoing acts of rebellion is good
